The authors analysed 31 cases of an acute hypertensive glomerulonephritis. The antihypertensive efficacy of two medicines: a vasodilator (dihidralazine) and a diuretic (Furosemide) was underlibed an these patients. Their efficacy was evident not only in the stabilization of P.A. around normal values on three days, but also on the disappearance of signs of on hypertensive encephalopathy whereas these ones were present.

Vitamin D as an add-on therapy to phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor in experimental pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol
January 2025
Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology. School of Medicine, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Madrid, Spain.
Severe vitamin D (vitD) deficiency is a very common condition in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and it is predictor of poor prognosis. There is emerging evidence suggesting a connection between the insufficient response to phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (PDE5i) and vitD deficiency in patients with PAH. In the present translational study, vitD deficiency was induced in Wistar rats by exposure to vitD free diet for 5 weeks and followed by Su5416 administration and hypoxia (10%) for 3 weeks, a standard experimental model of PAH.

Background: Ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can lead to sudden cardiac death. The role of ventricular tachycardia ablation (VTA) in CS has been investigated in a few small, single-center, and larger observational studies, but the evidence still needs to be provided. This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of VTA in patients with CS admitted with a diagnosis of VT.

Aims: This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near-to-normal N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels with regard to early stages of HFpEF and non-cardiac causes.
Statin therapy in ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation: Efficacy and safety outcomes.
Eur Stroke J
January 2025
Stroke Unit and Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy.
Introduction: The efficacy and safety of statins for secondary prevention in patients who have experienced a cardioembolic stroke are not well-defined. However, previous observational data reported hyperlipidemia as a risk factor for both ischemic and bleeding complications in patients with AF and previous stroke. Based on these premises, we conducted a sub-analysis of the RAF and RAF-NOAC studies to evaluate the efficacy and safety of statins in secondary prevention in patients with acute ischemic stroke and AF.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Risk factors of mortality in patients with AMI have been widely investigated, identifying older age and heart failure as common contributors. This study aimed to determine risk factors and explore predictors associated with higher mortality among patients with AMI.
