Metabolic effects of carvedilol vs. metoprolol in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension: A randomized controlled trial

TL;DR: Randomized trials comparing reninangiotensin system (RAS) blockers with -blockers demonstrate that cardiovascular outcomes are improved by RAS blockers, which maintain or improve cardiovascular outcomes by maintaining or improving glycemic control.
Journal ArticleDOI

BMP-2 gene expression and effects on human vascular smooth muscle cells.

TL;DR: The expression of BMP-2 by numerous cell types in the blood vessel wall may play a chemotactic or cochemotactic role in the smooth muscle cell response to vascular injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
