Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of losartan on muscle sympathetic activity and baroreceptor function in systemic hypertension.

TL;DR: This study for the first time demonstrates that in hypertensive patients, chronic AT(1) receptor antagonism inhibits muscle sympathetic nerve activity and that baroreceptor function is improved under these conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Delayed femoral vein thrombosis after ultrasound-guided thrombin injection of a postcatheterization pseudoaneurysm.

TL;DR: This case highlights the potential hazards of instilling such a powerful thrombogenic substance in the immediate vicinity of other vascular structures and presents an unusual case of acute femoral vein thromBosis occurring several hours after successful treatment of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm by ultrasound-guided thrombin injection.
Journal ArticleDOI

2D-spatially-selective real-time magnetic resonance imaging for the assessment of microvascular function and its relation to the cardiovascular risk profile.

TL;DR: Reactive hyperemic flow in the SFA, reflecting microcirculatory function of the lower limb, gradually decreases with increasing cardiovascular risk suggesting a role for microvascular dysfunction in atherogenesis.
