Candesartan cilexetil improves left ventricular function, left ventricular hypertrophy, and endothelial function in patients with hypertensive heart disease.
Patients with hypertension often develop left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy and deterioration of the cardiac and endothelial functions. Recent clinical trials have shown the added benefits of angiotensin II receptor blockers in hypertensive patients. Twenty-nine patients with hypertensive heart disease (HHD) underwent echocardiography, radionuclide ventriculography and the measurement of endothe...
متن کاملLeft ventricular hypertrophy improves cardiac function in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
1. The influence of different arterial pressures on the relationship between diastolic filling pressure and stroke volume was studied during pharmacological cardiac nerve blockade in adult, anaesthetized spontaneously hypertensive rats in comparison with matched normotensive Wistar--Kyoto rats. 2. Peak stroke volumes, obtained by rapid blood volume expansion were similar in both types of rat, d...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Evaluation of left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation
Extended abstract Echocardiographic Evaluation of Left Ventricular Function and Geometry in Pediatric Patients with Kidney Transplantation Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important, leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) as well as in renal transplant recipients. Cardiovascular complications become more important in children because of the i...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Function and Hypertrophy
Left ventricular (LV) function and hypertro:hy, assessed during cardiac catheterization by quantitative biplane angiocardiography, were re'ated to posteatheterization course in 36 patients found to have cardiomyopathy with depressed eject.on fraction (EF). EF ranged from 0.09 to 0.41, LV mass (M) from 99 to 317 g/m2, LV end-diastolic volume (V) from 104 to 347 ml/m2, and ratio of M/V from 0.66 ...
متن کاملIntracoronary angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition improves diastolic function in patients with hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy.
BACKGROUND There is increasing recognition of myocardial angiotensin-converting enzyme, which is induced with the development of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). The potential physiological significance of subsequent increased angiotensin I to II conversion in the presence of LVH is unclear but has been postulated to cause abnormal Ca2+ handling and secondary diastolic dysfunction. According...
