Introduction: Cerebrovascular pathologic changes (CVPC) are prevalent and associated with dementia in those ≥ 90 years. However, CVPC associations to traditional risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia) are variable. We hypothesized that neither traditional risk factors nor related medications would be associated with CVPC presence.

Lenvatinib, a multi-target inhibitor of receptor tyrosine kinases, has been increasingly used in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, its association with renal adverse effects, including proteinuria and renal microvascular complications, was not fully understood in HCC patients. We reported a case of a 68-year-old male with a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, diagnosed with primary HCC in 2015.

The clinical spectrum of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) with renal involvement includes forms with a slowly progressive course. These forms are poorly recognised and, therefore, often associated with misdiagnosis and delayed treatment. We present here a case of slowly progressive AAV with renal involvement.

Hypertension, a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, is linked to late-life neurocognitive disorders such as vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study explores the associations between hypertension, intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD), cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD), and Alzheimer's disease neuropathologic change (ADNC) in a large community-based autopsy study. This cross-sectional study used data from the Biobank for Aging Studies of the University of São Paulo Medical School.

Martorell hypertensive ulcer (MHU) represents a painful, difficult-to-handle condition associated with peri-pheral, subcutaneous arteriolosclerosis caused by chronic hypertensive disease. Betablockers are effective for and widely used to treat hypertensive disease but are reported to exacerbate peripheral vasoconstriction. The effect of betablockers on pre-existing arteriolosclerosis and the course of MHU is, however, unknown.
