24-hour monitoring of arterial pressure was performed before, 3 and 9 weeks after moexipril treatment (daily dose 7.5-15 mg) for mild and moderate hypertension. Of 15 patients treated 66.6% responded to the 9-week course. Adjuvant hypothiazid elevated the effect to 73.6%. Moexipril lowered mean 24-h diastolic pressure without changing the 24-h pressure curve or heart rate. Antihypertensive moexipril effect was higher in the day time. Variability of diastolic arterial pressure was lower at night.

Objective: The optimal method for maintaining intraoperative blood pressure during microsurgical procedures remains controversial. While intravenous fluid administration is essential, overfilling can lead to complications. Vasopressor agents are used cautiously due to their vasoconstrictive effects, which could potentially lead to flap failure.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease characterized by increased pulmonary vascular resistance and elevated pulmonary arterial pressure. Currently, pathogenesis of PAH remains poorly understood, and therapeutic options are limited. In this study, we aimed to explore role of p16INK4A (p16) in the development of PAH using mouse model induced by monocrotaline (MCT).

Parent Artery Occlusion (PAO) is a valid treatment choice in giant internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms of the cavernous segment when the preoperative balloon test occlusion (BTO) demonstrates an adequate cross circulation from the contralateral side. A high flow arterial bypass is, however, mandatory if the result suggests otherwise or is indeterminate. We present here a case of a 72-year lady where the BTO results were inconclusive.

This study investigated the correlation between quantitative echocardiographic characteristics within 3 days of birth and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and its severity in preterm infants. A retrospective study was conducted on 168 preterm infants with a gestational age of < 34 weeks. Patients were categorized into NEC and non-NEC groups.
