Journal ArticleDOI

Dragan Lovic,Athanasios J. Manolis,Branko K. Lovic,Vesna Stojanov,M. Lovic,Andreas Pittaras,Branko Jakovljevic +6 more
TL;DR: This review endeavors to summarize the complex pathophysiology of blood pressure regulation, to describe the baroreflex circuit, its anatomy and physiology, and to present recent data suggesting an effective role of carotid baroreceptor activation in long-lasting blood pressure reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Beta blocker rebound phenomenon is important, but we do not know its definition, incidence or optimal prevention strategies.
Goran Koracevic,Sladjana Micic,Milovan Stojanovic,Miloje Tomasevic,Tomislav Kostić,Radmila Veličković Radovanović,Dragan Lovic,Dragan S. Djordjević,Miomir Randjelovic,Maja Koracevic,Zaklina Ristic +10 more
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to analyze whether there is a need for scientific information about the beta blocker (BB) rebound phenomenon; whether such information is available; and, if it is, how detailed is the BB rebound phenomenon explained in the guidelines and papers?
Journal ArticleDOI
Compelling Indications Should be Listed for Individual Beta-Blockers (Due to Diversity), Not for the Whole Class.
Goran Koracevic,Sladjana Micic,Milovan Stojanovic,Dragan Lovic,Dragan Simic,Mirko Colic,Maja Koracevic,Aleksandar Stojković,Milenko Paunovic +8 more
TL;DR: Not all indications and contraindications are valid for each BB because there is only some degree of uniformity among BBs as a class of drugs, but to individualize the choice for specific indications is logical and practical.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Critical Approach of Guideline Therapeutic Recommendations for NAFLD.
Dragan Djordjevic,Marija Zdravkovic,Aleksandar Nagorni,Athanasios J. Manolis,Costas Tsioufis,Dragan Lovic +5 more
TL;DR: The extent of the epidemic and the mediating mechanisms are examined, current guideline recommendations are critically evaluated, and current and future medications for this disease are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blood pressure distribution and control in coronary patients from 24 European countries in the European Society of Cardiology EURoObservational Research Programme European survey of cardiovascular disease prevention and diabetes. EUROASPIRE IV Registry.
Renata Cifkova,Věra Lánská,Jan Bruthans,Otto Mayer,Kornelia Kotseva,Kornelia Kotseva,David R. Wood,Dragan Lovic,Johan De Sutter,Zeljko Reiner,Zlatko Fras,Zlatko Fras,Jaap W. Deckers,Nina Gotcheva,B. Georgiev,Dirk De Bacquer,Euroaspire Investigators +16 more
TL;DR: EroASPIRE IV found insufficient BP control in a large proportion of patients with stable CHD, with diabetes, increased BMI, older age and CABG as the index event being independent predictors of poor BP control.
