Hemodynamic Changes in Patients with Essential Hypertension after Therapy with Muzolimine

1987

Muzolimine is a new nonsulfonamide diuretic belonging to the pyrazolinone group (1).It is a potent high-ceiling diuretic agent like furosemide and bumetanide with long duration of action like thiazides (1, 2).

Treatment of patients with essential hypertension and microalbuminuria.

1998

There has been increasing interest in the question of whether microalbuminuria can be used in the risk stratification of patients with essential hypertension. A cluster of cardiovascular and/or renal risk factors may be associated with microalbuminuria in hypertension. Despite this, prospective data about the potential role of microalbuminuria as a prognostic marker of cardiovascular and/or renal risk have been sparse and inconclusive until now. Blood pressure values have been considered the most important determinant of microalbuminuria in essential hypertension; however, hyperinsulinaemia--a metabolic component-was noted to be present in conjunction with high blood pressure. Furthermore, …

Platelet membrane fluidity and platelet membrane lipid pattern in essential hypertension

1995

In a group of subjects with essential hypertension platelets were studied in resting conditions: platelet membrane fluidity was measured with the fluorescent probe 1.4-(trimethylamino)-phenyl-4-phenylhexatriene (TMA-DPH), platelet membrane cholesterol/phospholipid ratio was evaluated separating the membrane lipids with column chromatography, and platelet membrane individual phospholipids were determined using two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography. From the obtained results, it is evident that platelet membrane fluidity does not differentiate normals from hypertensives; platelet membrane cholesterol/phospholipid ratio is increased in hypertensives, while of the platelet membrane individu…

Bone Marrow Biopsy Revision According to WHO Criteria in 272 Patients of the Registro Italiano Trombocitemia (RIT): Preliminary Report On Clinical an…

2009

Abstract Abstract 4974 Background The bone marrow trephine biopsy (BMB) has a crucial role for the diagnosis of essential thrombocythemia (ET), both according to the PVSG and the WHO criteria. The WHO 2001 criteria enhanced the role of BMB also by distinguishing the true-ET (ET) from the prefibrotic and the early fibrotic chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis. The WHO 2008 criteria, in the JAK2 era, confirmed the diagnostic and prognostic relevance of the histopathological features in ET as well as in the other Ph-neg myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Otherwise, only few validated data are presently available, and the reproducibility in the evaluation of some morphological details is still con…

Antihypertensive treatment: should it be titrated to blood pressure reduction or to target organ damage regression?

2005

PURPOSE OF REVIEW The success of an antihypertensive treatment is difficult to estimate by the extent of blood pressure reduction alone. Above and beyond blood pressure values in an individual patient, it is necessary to monitor the impact of antihypertensive treatment on the development or regression of hypertension-induced early end-organ damage. The intermediate objectives or surrogate endpoints may provide additional valuable information about the level of success of a given therapy in a particular patient. Moreover, monitoring intermediate objectives may provide scientific evidence for delineating the best antihypertensive treatment. RECENT FINDINGS The importance of assessing left ven…
