Comparison between patients with and without heart failure regarding blood pressure The association between CV events and SBP is linear in patients without heart failure; however, it becomes J-shaped or inverse linear in those with heart failure. The management of BP, including optimal BP or pharmacotherapy, differs between the two populations. ACEi angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, ARB angiotensin II receptor blockers; ARNi angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, BB beta-blockers, BP blood pressure, CV cardiovascular, DASH Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, GDMT guideline-directed medical therapy, HF heart failure, HFrEF heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, MRA mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, SBP systolic blood pressure, SGLT2i sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors.
The association between second-hand smoking exposure and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy risk was analyzed using the JECS data. The relative risks in 4–7 days/week and ≥2 h/day of SHS exposures were 1.18 and 1.27, respectively. The PAFs due to SHS exposure and maternal smoking were 3.80% and 1.81%, respectively.
Advanced myosteatosis measured by abdominal CT taken at the L3 level was significantly correlated with a higher risk of hypertension even after adjusting for health behaviors, intake of lipid-lowering drugs, plasma lipid levels, and other ectopic fat distribution.
Antibodies against the (pro)renin receptor residues 47–60 and 200–213 can inhibit pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cell proliferation by suppressing Wnt signaling. This study provides 3D structural insights into receptor binding and one-to-many interactions, which underpin the functional versatility of this receptor.
This study suggested the association of podocyte DNA damage and subsequent DNA methylation with proteinuria in minor glomerular abnormalities (MGA) patients and those with eGFR declines in diabetic nephropathy (DN) patients, respectively.
