TL;DR: The findings suggest that thiazide-related incident diabetes has less adverse long-term CVD impact than incident diabetes that develops while on other antihypertensive medications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sverre E. Kjeldsen,Björn Dahlöf,Richard B. Devereux,Stevo Julius,Ulf de Faire,Frej Fyhrquist,Hans Ibsen,Krister Kristianson,Ole Lederballe-Pedersen,Lars H Lindholm,Markku S. Nieminen,Per Omvik,Suzanne Oparil,Hans Wedel +13 more
TL;DR: The successful lowering of blood pressure during 12 months of follow-up in a large cohort of patients with hypertension and LVH on ECG is demonstrated, but the need for two or more drugs to control high blood pressure in most of these patients is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased Dietary Sodium Is Related to Severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients With Resistant Hypertension and Hyperaldosteronism
Eduardo Pimenta,Michael Stowasser,Richard D. Gordon,Susan M. Harding,Michel Batlouni,Bin Zhang,Suzanne Oparil,David A. Calhoun +7 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that dietary salt is related to the severity of OSA in patients with resistant hypertension and hyperaldosteronism, and support dietary salt restriction as a treatment strategy for reduction of Osa severity in these patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sympathetic function in spontaneously hypertensive rats after chronic administration of captopril.
TL;DR: The depressor effects of intracerebroventricular captopril in SHR may be due, in part, to an attenuation in sympathetic vasoconstrictor tone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estrogen Attenuates Integrin-β3–Dependent Adventitial Fibroblast Migration After Inhibition of Osteopontin Production in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
TL;DR: It is suggested that estrogen indirectly attenuates integrin-beta(3)-dependent adventitial fibroblast migration after inhibition of OPN expression in activated VSMCs.
