TL;DR: Chronic calcium channel blockade with diltiazem does not alter serum parameters of calcium homeostasis and, thus, should not affect bone mineralization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Should living kidney donors with hypertension be considered for organ donation
TL;DR: Although the data supporting long-term safety of nephrectomy in hypertensive donors are modest, small studies with short-term follow-up suggest no increase in the incidence of kidney disease or worsening of the control of hypertension in donors with a history of high BP.

TL;DR: Average caloric and nutrient intakes differed by outlet availability; however, there were no strong associations with type of food outlet; this should be considered when developing food-focused public health policies.
