Aim: The purpose of this study is to study the effect of sex on the features of therapy of arterial hypertension and the development of cardiovascular complications.
Materials And Methods: Data from the register of AH from outpatient hospital and cardiology departments of hospitals of 22 regions of the Russian Federation were analyzed. Data of medical documents of 33 564 patients with AH [(36.2%) men and 21 423 (63.8%) women] were entered into the on-line computer program and were analyzed using the statistical software package STATISTICA 10.
Results: Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are more often diagnosed in men: peripheral artery disease, coronary heart disease, acute coronary syndrome, congestive heart failure, ischemic stroke, dissecting aortic aneurysm. The beginning of development cardiovascular disease in men with elevated blood pressure is already observed at age of 25-44 years, which indicates the need for preventive measures already in adolescence and closer monitoring of treatment at a young age.
Conclusion: The study confirmed the role of the male sex as a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease in hypertensive men and women with comparable figures of blood pressure in. Identified gender features must be considered when diagnosing patients with AH.

Oxidative stress-associated proximal tubular cells (PTCs) damage is an important pathogenesis of hypertensive renal injury. We previously reported the protective effect of VEGFR3 in salt-sensitive hypertension. However, the specific mechanism underlying the role of VEGFR3 in kidney during the overactivation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system remains unclear.

Background: DNA hypomethylation and uracil misincorporation into DNA, both of which have a very important correlation with colorectal carcinogenesis. Folate plays a crucial role in DNA synthesis, acting as a coenzyme in one-carbon metabolism, which involves the synthesis of purines, pyrimidines, and methyl groups. MTHFR, a key enzyme in folate metabolism, has been widely studied in relation to neural tube defects and hypertension, but its role in colorectal cancer remains underexplored.

Background: Anthracycline usage has been linked to cardiovascular adverse events (CAEs), which is unpredictable. It is critical to identify the characteristics of vulnerable populations and risk factors in order to reduce the occurrence of CAEs.
Objectives: This meta-analysis aimed to assess the correlation between various risk factors and CAEs induced by anthracyclines.

Introduction: Early antibiotic administration is one of the core treatments of sepsis which associated with reduced mortality rate. However, the appropriate timing of antibiotics remains a controversial issue, especially in patients without septic shock. Here, we reported the outcomes of early antibiotic administration within one hour from the time of infection suspicion in a tertiary care hospital.

Na-K-Cl cotransporters functions as an anion importers, regulating trans-epithelial chloride secretion, cell volume, and renal salt reabsorption. Loop diuretics, including furosemide, bumetanide, and torsemide, antagonize both NKCC1 and NKCC2, and are first-line medicines for the treatment of edema and hypertension. NKCC1 activation by the molecular crowding sensing WNK kinases is critical if cells are to combat shrinkage during hypertonic stress; however, how phosphorylation accelerates NKCC1 ion transport remains unclear.
