Impact of Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARB) versus Other Antihypertensive Medication on Blood Pressure in Patients on Dialysis: A Meta-Analysis.

Introduction: Hypertension is an important factor driving mortality among dialysis patients. Angiotensin-II receptor blocker (ARB) has been effective similarly to angiotensin-converting enzymes (ACEs) but with a low incidence of side effects.

Methodology: The meta-analysis included all published studies that investigated the effect of ARB on the hypertension in adult dialysis patients (≥18 years).

Engineered praseodymium sulfide nanocarrier and supramolecular association of anticancer drug for effective delivery to breast cancer cells.

Metal sulfide nanoparticles are synthesized for their biomedical applications, including cancer drug targeting. This paper reports a novel nanocomposite made of praseodymium sulfide nanoparticles and poly-cyclodextrin. The praseodymium sulfide nanoparticles were synthesized hydrothermal, autoclaving the nitrate precursors at 150 °C for 18 hours.
