Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of radiographic-contrast-agent-induced reductions in renal function by acetylcysteine.

TL;DR: Prophylactic oral administration of the antioxidant acetylcysteine, along with hydration, prevents the reduction in renal function induced by contrast agents in patients with chronic renal insufficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contrast-induced nephropathy: a clinical and evidence-based approach.

TL;DR: This review focuses on 4 major concerns of CIN relevant in clinical practice: what is the evidence that CIN is a clinically relevant and a dangerous condition for the patient, is there a difference in CIN rate among different contrast media, and how is that related to the physicochemical properties of different available contrast media?
Journal ArticleDOI

The antioxidant acetylcysteine reduces cardiovascular events in patients with end-stage renal failure: a randomized, controlled trial.

TL;DR: In hemodialysis patients, treatment with acetylcysteine (600 mg BID), a thiol-containing antioxidant, reduces composite cardiovascular end points.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid Type-1 Channel Prevents Adipogenesis and Obesity

TL;DR: The oral administration of capsaicin for 120 days prevented obesity in male wild type mice but not in TRPV1 knockout mice assigned to high fat diet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of TRPV1 by Dietary Capsaicin Improves Endothelium-Dependent Vasorelaxation and Prevents Hypertension

TL;DR: It is reported that chronic TRPV1 activation by dietary capsaicin increases the phosphorylation of protein kinase A and eNOS and thus production of nitric oxide in endothelial cells, which is calcium dependent, and may represent a promising target for therapeutic intervention of hypertension.
