Journal ArticleDOI

Nephroprotection by antihypertensive agents.

TL;DR: It has been confirmed to date that systematic antihypertensive therapy slows the progression of renal failure of any etiology, and there is initial proof that ACE inhibitors are superior to other anti Hypertensive agents in this respect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired basal NO activity in patients with glomerular disease and the influence of oxidative stress

TL;DR: It is suggested that basal NO activity of the renal vasculature is reduced in patients with chronic glomerular disease compared to age- and blood pressure-matched control subjects, in part related to increased oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relation between the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and left ventricular structure and function in young normotensive and mildly hypertensive subjects.

TL;DR: Neither angiotensin II, aldosterone, nor their suppression in response to high salt intake were related to LV structure in young hypertensive patients, which may represent early changes in hypertensive heart disease and precede potential structural alterations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired increase of retinal capillary blood flow to flicker light exposure in arterial hypertension.

TL;DR: In this paper, the increase of retinal capillary blood flow (RCF) to flicker light exposure is impaired in subjects with arterial hypertension, but not diastolic or mean arterial pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Left ventricular hypertrophy. A cardiovascular risk factor in essential hypertension.

Franz H. Messerli, +1 more

TL;DR: Left ventricular hypertrophy is common, particularly in the elderly, and predisposes to ventricular ectopy, higher grade arrhythmias, and sudden death, and these considerations have to be taken into account when selecting antihypertensive therapy.
