Nontraditional Cardiovascular Risk Factors
Suzanne Oparil,Albert Oberman +1 more
TL;DR: Evidence that newer, "nontraditional" cardiovascular risk factors, such as chronic inflammation and its markers, are related to cardiovascular disease is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pressure-independent enhancement of cardiac hypertrophy in atrial natriuretic peptide-deficient mice.
Ji An Feng,Gilbert J. Perry,Gilbert J. Perry,Tatsuhiko Mori,Tetsuya Hayashi,Suzanne Oparil,Yiu-Fai Chen +6 more
TL;DR: Homozygous deletion of the pro‐atrial natriuretic peptide (Nppa) gene (ANP–/–) has been associated with both cardiac hypertrophy and salt‐sensitive hypertension in mice, suggesting that cardiachypertrophy in ANP-/– mice may be related, at least in part, to increased afterload.
Journal Article
Mechanism of the pressor action of LY171555, a specific dopamine D2 receptor agonist, in the conscious rat.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the pressor action of LY171555 in conscious rats is dependent on activation of sympathetic outflow and AVP release through the central D2 dopaminergic system and that the central pressor effects of Ly 171555 could mask a depressor effect of L y1715 55 at the peripheral D2 dopamine receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incident Cardiovascular Disease Among Adults With Blood Pressure <140/90 mm Hg.
Gabriel S. Tajeu,John N. Booth,Lisandro D. Colantonio,Rebecca F. Gottesman,George Howard,Daniel T. Lackland,Emily C. O'Brien,Suzanne Oparil,Joseph Ravenell,Monika M. Safford,Samantha R. Seals,Daichi Shimbo,Steven Shea,Tanya M. Spruill,Rikki M. Tanner,Paul Muntner +15 more
TL;DR: Although higher BP levels are associated with increased CVD risk, in the modern era, the majority of incident CVD events occur in US adults with systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP/DBP) ≥140/90 mm Hg, a pooled analysis of 3 contemporary US cohorts suggests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Chlorthalidone, Amlodipine, and Lisinopril on Visit-to-Visit Variability of Blood Pressure: Results From the Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial
Paul Muntner,Emily B. Levitan,Amy I. Lynch,Lara M. Simpson,Jeff Whittle,Jeff Whittle,Barry R. Davis,John B. Kostis,Paul K. Whelton,Suzanne Oparil +9 more
TL;DR: Data suggest chlorthalidone and amlodipine are associated with lower VVV of SBP than lisinopril, and results were consistent using other VVVs ofSBP metrics.
