Secondary hypertension accompanying high pressure chronic retention.

Anaphylaxis induced by peanuts.

Year patients suggested powerful renal vasoconstriction, possibly due to neurogenic or humoral influences. The stimulus to this might be a raised renal pelvic pressure, although this is, however, appreciably lower than the bladder pressure measured concurrently.' Surgical relief of chronic retention was accompanied by a prompt and sustained rise in glomerular filtration rate and effective renal...

Pressor factors and responsiveness in hypertension accompanying diabetes mellitus.

Hypertension accompanying diabetes mellitus may involve abnormalities in at least two major blood pressure-regulating systems: the body sodium-fluid volume state and cardiovascular reactivity. In metabolically stable nonazotemic diabetes, exchangeable sodium is increased by 10% on average, regardless of age, insulin dependence or nondependence, or the presence or absence of diabetic retinopathy...

Relationship between coronary artery disease and pulmonary arterial pressure in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

The aim of the present study was to determine whether there is a relationship between coronary artery disease and pulmonary hypertension and whether pulmonary hypertension is an additional risk factor for the presence and extent of coronary artery disease in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pulmonary hypertens...

Production of prolonged arterial hypertension in dogs by chronic stimulation of the nervous system; exploration of the mechanism of hypertension accompanying increased intracranial pressure.

Role of the Kidneys in Resistant Hypertension

Resistant hypertension is a failure to achieve goal BP (<140/90 mm Hg for the overall population and <130/80 mm Hg for those with diabetes mellitus or chronic kidney disease) in a patient who adheres to maximum tolerated doses of 3 antihypertensive drugs including a diuretic. The kidneys play a critical role in long-term regulation of blood pressure. Blunted pressure natriuresis, with resultant...
