Journal ArticleDOI

The protective role of atorvastatin on function, structure and ultrastructure in the aorta of dyslipidemic rabbits.

TL;DR: Chronic atorvastatin treatment exerts a protective role in vascular function, structure and ultrastructure even in the presence of high cholesterol and triglyceride plasma levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intervention at lower blood pressure levels to achieve target goals in type 2 diabetes: PRADID (PResión Arterial en DIabéticos tipo Dos) study.

TL;DR: Antihypertensive treatment is more effective than placebo for controlling SBP and DBP in previously untreated participants with type 2 diabetes exhibiting low threshold BP values.
Journal ArticleDOI

Control of hypertension in coronary heart disease.

TL;DR: Out-of-office control of hypertension among 2434 treated essential hypertensive patients with clinically documented CHD was much higher than in-office BP control; physicians should be comforted by BP results better than previously believed based on office data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypertension and obesity: correlates with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and uric acid.

TL;DR: It is described that serum uric acid seems to contribute to the enhancement of plasma angiotensinogen and could be involved in the pathophysiology of obesity-related hypertension where an increase in activity of RAAS is one of the mechanisms underlying the development and maintenance of arterial hypertension.
