Mean renin activity was 1.6 卤 2.2 ng/ml/hr. Twenty-nine (67%) patients with renin< 1.0 were designated as LRH and the remaining 14 (33%) were designated as non-LRH. There were no differences in demographics between LRH and non-LRH patients. The seated BP in the dominant arm at the...
We report the case of a 7 years old boy being treated for achalasia cardia, presented with fits and altered sensorium which on further investigations was found to be due to adrenal insensitivity (Raised ACTH level, low Cortisol level, and normal Aldosterone and Renin ratio). Allgrove syndrome:...
This study shows that low-level lead intake in young dogs can cause an early increase in blood pressure which persists during ongoing exposure and which is associated with a small increase in the activity of the renin-angiotensin system. 展开 ...
The addition of fludrocortisone to hydrocortisone was justified because primary adrenal insufficiency could not be ruled out16 since it has been shown that 40% to 65% of critically ill patients have high-plasma renin activity and low-plasma aldosterone concentrations.34,35 Moreover, in situations ...
On a cellular level, mitochondrial biogenesis and function (metabolism and morphology) are also known to be influenced by E2 [179] while regulation of mitochondrial dynamics allows the cell to respond and adapt to cellular energy demands [180]. Thyroid hormones also stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis...
The small pressor response in the low-Na dogs was shown not to be related to changes in plasma renin activity, basal level of angiotensin II, to the degree of carotid hypotension, or to the vascular reaction to infused norepinephrine. However, the dose-response to tyramine was shifted ...
NCC activity is regulated by the level of the total protein expression, the amount of protein at the apical membrane, and also by phosphorylation or dephosphorylation of NCC, modulating uptake of N a+ and Cl− in the DCT (24). Shuhua Xu and Jing Li are contributed...
In this study we investigated the effects of changes in posture on the plasma levels of ANF, plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone (aldo)... Franco-saenz, Roberto,D Harper,Mulrow, Patrick J - 《Clinical & Experimental Hypertension》 被引量: 1发表: 2009年 Effect of upright pos...
Epidemiological studies have associated inadequate vitamin D with hypertension and high plasma renin activity. In VDR null mice, marked elevation of renin expression and plasma angiotensin II production lead to hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, and increased water intake [3]. When these animals were su...
Public posting of individual level data is not covered by the informed consent form signed by each patient participating in this study. As stated in the patient consent form and approved by the Ethics Committees, a dataset containing pseudonyms can be obtained by collaborating scientists upon approva...
