Mibefradil, a T-Channel–Selective Calcium Antagonist Clinical Trials in Hypertension
TL;DR: Mibefradil, at the recommended doses of 50 to 100 mg/day, is safe and effective for the treatment of mild-to-moderate hypertension and was better tolerated than the comparison drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Salt supplementation does not alter the pressor effect of blocking atrial natriuretic peptide in nucleus tractus solitarii.
TL;DR: Exogenous ANP in caudal nucleus tractus solitarii mediates tonic control of blood pressure in both salt-sensitive and salt-resistant SHR but not in Wistar-Kyoto rats, and this effect is independent of the salt sensitivity of hypertension and of dietary salt intake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systolic blood pressure control prevents cognitive decline and slows development of white matter lesions in the brain: the SPRINT MIND study outcomes
Journal ArticleDOI
Angiotensin receptor--neprilysin inhibiton (ARNI)--a novel therapeutic concept for management of hypertension and heart failure.
TL;DR: The novel ARNI concept is currently being tested in a large outcomes trial in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and may also have potential therapeutic value in heart failure patients with preserved ejectedion fraction.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The study aims to enroll otherwise healthy young adults for a pharmacological intervention study with multiple study-related procedures and mechanistic outcomes include changes in endothelial function as measured by flow-mediated dilation, as well as C-reactive protein levels.
