Sodium-lithium countertransport and cardiorenal abnormalities in essential hypertension.
The rate of red blood cell sodium-lithium countertransport is elevated only in a subgroup of patients with essential hypertension. We have therefore compared renal and cardiac function and morphology in two groups of hypertensive patients with high (n = 23) or normal (n = 22) sodium-lithium countertransport (mean +/- SEM: 0.61 +/- 0.10 versus 0.29 +/- 0.07 mmol/l red blood cells.hr). The two gr...
متن کاملRacial differences in pressure, volume and renin interrelationships in essential hypertension.
The interrelationships of arterial pressure, plasma volume (PV), and plasma renin activity were studied in 152 consecutive male patients with uncomplicated essential hypertension. Of these, 22 (17 white and 5 black) subjects had normal plasma volumes and because of the small number were not included in the analysis of results. The remaining 130 (35 black and 95 white) patients were classified a...
متن کاملAcetylcholine in Essential Hypertension
Patients with essential hypertension show impaired endothelium-dependent vasodilation induced by acetylcholine. Because dietary potassium supplementation increases endothelium-dependent relaxations to acetylcholine in hypertensive rats, we designed the present study to investigate whether potassium increases endothelium-dependent vasodilation in essential hypertensive patients. Therefore, in pa...
متن کاملMicroalbuminuria in Essential Hypertension
Essential hypertension (HTN) usually clusters with other cardiovascular risk factors such as age, overweight, diabetes, insulin resistance and dyslipidemia. The target organ damage (TOD) such as left ventricular hypertrophy, microalbuminuria (MA), acute coronary syndrome (ACS), stroke and cognitive dysfunction takes place early in course of hypertension. Though the prevalence of hypertension is...
متن کاملMicroalbuminuria in essential hypertension.
The prevalence and significance of microalbuminuria is not well elucidated in patients with essential hypertension. In newly detected hypertension, its prevalence ranges between 23 and 37% and albuminuria is usually well correlated with the level of arterial pressure. Interestingly, albuminuria is enhanced in overweight hypertensive patients. Antihypertensive treatment has variable influence on...
