Renovascular hypertension identified by captopril-induced changes in the renogram.
Radioisotope renography was performed in 21 patients with hypertension and unilateral renal artery stenosis with and without premedication with 25 mg of captopril, and the results were compared with the effect of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty on the blood pressure, assessed 6 weeks after angioplasty. Angioplasty caused a considerable decrease in blood pressure in 15 of the 21 patients. ...
متن کاملProstaglandin production contributes to exercise-induced vasodilation in heart failure.
Endothelial release of prostaglandins may contribute to exercise-induced skeletal muscle arteriolar vasodilation in patients with heart failure. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of indomethacin on leg circulation and metabolism in eight chronic heart failure patients, aged 55 +/- 4 yr. Central hemodynamics and leg blood flow, determined by thermodilution, and leg metabolic parame...
متن کاملHemodynamic and volume changes associated with captopril.
The effects of captopril on bemodynamic, rolmne, and neurohumoral indices were inrestigated in 33 patients with essential hypertension or renal arterial disease. Changes associated with treatment were studied under two conditions: immediately (V4 to 1 boar) after administration of the drug, or after 5 to 7 days of therapy. Blood pressure (BP) reduction in both conditions was due to a reduction ...
متن کاملAlteration in prostacyclin and prostaglandin E2 production. Correlation with changes in human aortic atherosclerotic disease.
Prostacyclin (PGI2) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production was investigated in human aortas (five controls and 27 with atherosclerotic lesions). The specific activities of PGI2 and PGE2 synthetase were studied using radioimmunoassays of PGE2 and 6-keto-PGE1 alpha of aortic microsomes incubated in the presence of additional substrate and cofactors. The atherosclerotic lesions were examined under...
متن کاملMuscle sympathetic nerve responses to physiological changes in prostaglandin production in humans.
Previous studies suggest that prostaglandins may contribute to exercise-induced increases in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA). To test this hypothesis, MSNA was measured at rest and during exercise before and after oral administration of ketoprofen, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, or placebo. Twenty-one subjects completed two bouts of graded dynamic and isometric handgrip to fatigue. Each e...
