In an effort to develop antihypertensive agents with peripheral vasodilator activity, a series of 40 novel 3-hydrazino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazines (II) were synthesized and evaluated in the spontaneously hypertensive rat assay (SHR assay). Based on the performance of the structurally related standard, hydralazine (I), 15 triazines were active. Thirteen of these hypotensive triazines possessed LD50 values in the mouse greater than I (LD50 = 100 mg/kg); only one active triazine had an LD50 value greater than 300 mg/kg (11d). Four asymmetric triazines had moderate antihypertensive activity and LD50 values greater than 300 mg/kg (6b, 7c, 8f, and 9g). Based on the relationship between toxicity and antihypertensive activity, three triazines (8f, 9g, and 11d) were chosen for dose-responses studies in the SHR assay. None were as efficacious as I, but all three were less toxic, resulting in similar therapeutic indices relative to I.

Effects of intrathecal administration of sodium nitroprusside and nicardipine on cerebral pial microcirculation, cortical tissue oxygenation, and electrocortical activity in the early post-resuscitation period in a porcine cardiac arrest model.

Recent studies suggested intrathecal vasodilator administration as a therapy to mitigate post-ischemic cerebral hypoperfusion following cardiac arrest. We examined the effects of two commonly used intrathecal vasodilators, sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and nicardipine, on cerebral pial microcirculation, cortical tissue oxygen tension (PctO2), and electrocortical activity in the early post-resuscitation period using a porcine model of cardiac arrest. Thirty pigs were resuscitated after 14 min of untreated cardiac arrest.

Objective: To investigate the association between the cumulative exposure to triglyceride-glucose index (cumTyG index) and fragility fractures in the general population.
Methods: This prospective cohort study analyzed active and retired employees of Kailuan Group who participated in three consecutive health examinations in 2006, 2008 and 2010, and were followed up until 31st December 2022. The cohort comprised 55,824 participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were grouped using the cumTyG index quartiles.
The role of 27-hydroxycholesterol in hypercholesterolemia-associated exacerbation of apical periodontitis and therapeutic potential of felodipine.

Background/purpose: Studies have demonstrated a relation between hypercholesterolemia and development of apical periodontitis (AP), but the underlying mechanism is uncertain. 27-hydroxycholesterol (27HC), produced by cytochrome P450 27A1 (CYP27A1)-catalyzed hydroxylation of cholesterol, is known to possess pro-inflammatory activity. Felodipine is an anti-hypertensive agent able to inhibit CYP27A1.

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death and morbidity worldwide, with a significantly higher burden in low- and middle-income countries. Hypertension, a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, remains under-diagnosed and poorly controlled, especially in regions such as Latin America. The HOPE-4 study demonstrated that the involvement of non-physician health workers (NPHWs), the use of standardized treatment algorithms, the provision of free antihypertensive drugs and home follow-up can significantly improve hypertension control and reduce cardiovascular risk, as demonstrated in Colombia and Malaysia.

Background: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) affects > 300 million people worldwide. The combination of CHB and cardiometabolic co-morbidities increases the risk of liver-related morbidity and mortality. However, international guidelines for CHB treatment do not provide recommendations for follow-up examinations or treatment of patients with CHB and cardiometabolic comorbidities.
