Specifically, examination of the effect of activation of the renin-angiotensin system by low salt intake (10 mEq vs 200 mEq sodium per day) on plasma fibrinolytic parameters demonstrated that low salt intake was associated with a significant increase in morning plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1...
CGS 13080, a selective thromboxane synthetase inhibitor, was given intravenously (0.6 mg/kg over 6 hours) to eight hypertensive (diastolic 95-115 mm Hg) euvolemic caucasian females on their customary salt intake (24 hour urine Na: 142.9 +/- 14.8 meq). No change occurred in blood pressure ...
Cholesterol levels, the prevalence of hypokalemia (serum potassium <3.5 mEq/L), and new diabetes (fasting glucose ≥126 mg/dL [≥7.0 mmol/L]) were higher in the chlorthalidone than the other groups following 2 and 4 years of follow-up. Overall, these metabolic differences did not translate...
[to convert to micromoles per liter, multiply by 88.4]), hyperkalemia (serum potassium level > 5.5 mEq/L [to convert to millimoles per liter, multiply by 1]), and symptomatic hypotension.ResultsFour studies (N = 17 337; mean follow-up, 25 months [range, 11-41 months])...
27. The process of any of claims 1 to 26, wherein the refined oil includes copper below about 0.05 mg/kg, phosphorous below about 0.2 mg/kg and is essentially free of pesticides. 28. The process of any of claims 1 to 27, wherein the omega3 fatty acid concentration is substantially ...
Amiloride, at doses of 10-40 mg/day, increased mean plasma potassium levels in both primary hyperaldosteronism (3.2-4.5 mEq/L) and, to a lesser extent, in Bartter''s syndrome (2.5-3.6 mEq/L) The blood pressure fell slightly but significantly in primary hyperaldosteronism (171/112 vs 150/...
Two NIDD patients discontinued the medication, one because of symptomatic postural hypotension and the other, who had a plasma creatinine level of 1.8 mg/dl, because of hyper-kalaemia (K = 6.1 mEq/L ). In the responders, enalapril did not alter glucose tolerance, plasma or urinary excretion...
After one month's treatment their supine blood pressure had decreased to 149/94 mm Hg. They were then instructed to reduce their sodium intake to about 80 mmol(mEq)/day. After two weeks of moderate sodium restriction they were entered into a double blind randomised crossover study comparing ...
Despite similar diuretic doses in the two regimens, serum potassium concentration was significantly higher during treatment with the captopril combination (4.3 ± 0.2 vs. 3.6 ± 0.2 mEq/l., P<0.01). It seems likely that converting enzyme inhibition by captopril increases the sensitivity of the ...
The title compound is prepared starting with tert.-butyloxycarbonyl-proline polystyrene resin (8 g) containing ca. 0.5 meq. of proline per gram and is allowed to stir overnight with dichloromethane. The dichloromethane is removed by filtration and the resin is treated as follows: ...
