BACKGROUND: -Worsening renal function (WRF) in the setting of heart failure has been associated with increased mortality. However, it is unclear if this decreased survival is a direct result of the reduction in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) or if the mechanism underlying the deterioration in GFR is driving prognosis. Given that WRF in the setting of angiotensin converting enzyme ...

Despite their proven value in reducing morbidity and mortality in different grades of heart failure, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors continue to be underused. One reason for this is clinicians' apprehension of first-dose hypotension. We conducted a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled parallel group study to investigate the effect of ...

The efficacy of ACE inhibitors (ACEIs) in the treatment of chronic heart failures is well documented. However, ACEIs may provide incomplete blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) because of the alternative pathways for angiotensin II (All) production. We hypothesized that more complete blockade of RAS by adding an AT1 receptor blocker (ARB) may ...

A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) screening procedure was developed for the detection of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, their metabolites, and angiotensin (AT) II receptor antagonists in urine as part of a systematic toxicologic analysis procedure for acidic drugs and poisons after extractive methylation. The part of the ...

Medications given once daily may increase compliance for treatment of hypertension, if the drugs have a prolonged duration of action. The time-effect profiles for antihypertensive drugs may not depend entirely on pharmacokinetic measurements (plasma levels). Thus, trough/peak effects on blood pressure should be measured. It has been suggested that trough/peak ratios be greater than 50% for optimal ...
