The effect of atenolol and reserpine on incidence of strokes, coronary heart disease (CHD), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and mortality was assessed in 4736 persons aged 60 years and older with isolated systolic hypertension. Participants were randomized to either chlorthalidone (2371), with step-up
Emotional disturbances, such as lack of motivation or depression, are common after stroke. The drugs mainly used to treat these syndromes in Japan are the cerebral metabolic enhancers whose biochemical and pharmacological profiles are similar to those of antidepressant drugs. In order to examine the
Demonstration of reserpine-induced inotropic supersensitivity depends on such variables as the dose and time course of reserpine pretreatment, the species, the agonist being tested, the experimental preparation, the frequency of stimulation and possible cardiotoxic effects of reserpine. We therefore
Although mammalian ventricle is richly supplied with adrenergic nerves, endogenous norepinephrine is not essential to the intrinsic contractility of the normal heart. However, it is not clear whether acute changes in cardiac norepinephrine could alter heart function in genetically hypertensive rats.
The reactive oxygen species has been proposed as a key mediator of the progression of renal injury associated with essential hypertension. Among the defense systems operating against the reactive oxygen species, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase are the most important
Effects of benidipine hydrochloride or triple therapy (hydralazine, reserpine, and hydrochlorothiazide) on renal cortical and medullary intrinsic antioxidant enzyme (AOE) activity were evaluated in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR-SP) as an animal model for human essential
OBJECTIVE
We sought to determine risk factors for stroke and stroke type in persons with isolated systolic hypertension (ISH).
METHODS
We performed proportional hazards analyses of data from the Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program, a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of
One hundred and seventy eight patients admitted to hospital with acute cerebral infarction or transient ischaemic attack were studied to determine if their treatment had been changed during the previous three weeks and to compare their blood pressure after the stroke with premorbid values. Blood
Six cases with acute onset of neurological symptoms and extremely high blood pressure (BP) are reviewed. Hypertensive crisis or stroke were the main differential diagnoses. According to what is advocated for both situations, prompt antihypertensive therapy was instituted. Although recommended doses
BACKGROUND
The Systolic Hypertension in the Elderly Program (SHEP) demonstrated that treating isolated systolic hypertension in older patients decreased incidence of total stroke, but whether all types of stroke were reduced was not evaluated.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate antihypertensive drug treatment
The present study established a rat model of post-stroke depression using incomplete ischemia induced by unilateral carotid artery ligation in combination with solitary raising and subcutaneous injection of a small dose of reserpine. After intragastric perfusion with 45 mg/100 g, 15 mg/100 g, and
The pathogenesis of experimental adrenal hemorrhagic necrosis produced by acrylonitrile in the rat was investigated by various morphologic, biochemical, and pharmacologic methods. One dose of this chemical injected intravenously caused 100 per cent incidence of adrenal hemorrhage and necrosis in 90
In four experiments, immature Athens Randombred (ARB) chickens were maintained at a moderate temperature, (24 degrees C., 45% R.H.). In Exps. 1 and 2 reserpine was given intramuscularly (0.75 mg./kg.) 12 hours before the heating episode was begun; in Exp. 3, propranolol was given intravenously (4
