Filter by:Animal models have demonstrated the role of aldosterone in left ventricular remodeling involving fibrosis, apoptosis and hypertrophy. Myocardial fibrosis is a risk factor for serious arrhythmia and sudden death in ischemic and idiopathic hypertrophic heart disease. It is accepted that patients with primary aldosteronism have a higher prevalence of LV hypertrophy , arterial involvement and increased cardiovascular risk. In humans, a link has been demonstrated between aldosterone and heart failure as well as the benefit of the administration of an anti -aldosterone drug to lower mortality in this population , regardless of blood pressure level . The administration of spironolactone ( aldosterone ) in hypertensive rats has prevented the occurrence of aortic fibrosis . Plasma aldosteronism in humans has been associated with inflammation, fibrosis and aortic stiffness . However, primary aldosteronism is generally associated with so-called secondary hypertension . Chronic hypertension alone is a recognized etiological factor of myocardial hypertrophy ( myocardial fibrosis very advanced ) . The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of MRI hyperaldosteronism on the heart.
To evaluate antihypertensive effect and safety of CS-3150 compared to Eplerenone in patients with essential hypertension.
Phase 3 study to examine the relation between antihypertensive effect and baseline factors exploratively, compared to olmesartan medoxomil in patients with essential hypertension.
The purpose of this project is to build capacity for quality improvement (QI) in small primary care practices across Washington, Oregon and Idaho by improving risk factors for heart attacks such as blood pressure, cholesterol and smoking. The Northwest Coalition for Primary Care Practice Support will assist practices by providing them with a QI coach, creating group learning opportunities, and conducting educational outreach activities. An innovative study design will be used to determine what levels and types of support are most helpful and effective.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety of RMJH-111b, including how well it is tolerated, and the effect of RMJH-111b on blood pressure in subjects with hypertension. The study also measured the amount of magnesium in the blood and urine before and after RMJH-111b administration to evaluate what the body does to RMJH-111b (pharmacokinetics).
Randomized, Double-Blind, Multi-Center, Phase 3 Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Telmisartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Combination in Comparison with Telmisartan/Amlodipine Combination for Essential Hypertension Patients not Controlled by Telmisartan/Amlodipine Combination
To examine antihypertensive effect, pharmacodynamics, and safety of long-term administration of CS-3150 as monotherapy and in combination with calcium channel blocker or renin-angiotensin system inhibitor in patients with essential hypertension.
To evaluate the efficacy on blood pressure reduction, safety and tolerability of two different dosages of canrenone as add-on therapy in patients already treated with Angiotensin Converting-Enzyme Inhibitors (ACE-I) or Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers (ARBs) and diuretics at the maximum dosage.
This is a multi-center, open-label, observational study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Nifedipine GITS on lowering blood pressure in Chinese adults with mild-to-moderate hypertension.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of Arotinolol Hydrochloride and Metoprolol succinate on morning blood pressure, heart rate and target organ damage in patients with essential hypertension. To provide evidence for hypertension treatment. A group: Arotinolol Hydrochloride, oral, 5-15mg, bid for 12 weeks. B group: Metoprolol succinate sustained-release tablet, oral, 23.75-71.25mg, qd for 12 weeks.
