Eight correlations between clinical and epidemiological data and protein expression were noteworthy: diabetes mellitus vs. Ig gamma-2 and apolipoprotein-A1 and albumin; congestive heart failure vs. Ig lambda-2; colonization vs. actin; compressive therapy vs. Ig kappa; systemic arterial hypertension vs. alpha-2-macroglobulin and apolipoprotein-A1; area of ulcer vs. apolipoprotein-A1; race vs. heavy chain Ig and Ig γ-1 chain; age and race vs. Ig γ-1 chain.
As ABCA1 can be blocked by cyclosporine A, these results suggest further investigation of the possible use of statins to treat CsA-induced hypertension.
To create gender-specific percentile curves for percent body fat (%BF) by Bio electrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) for screening adiposity and risk of hypertension in Indian children and generate reference curves for percent fat-free mass (%FFM), muscle mass (%LM) and bone mineral content (BMC) by using bioelectrical impedance.
Recent data indicate that enzymes and transporters involved in CNI pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, including CYP3A5, ABCB1, WNK4 and SPAK, are also associated with salt-sensitive hypertension.
Studies indicate that there is an increased serum concentration of amlodipine (a calcium channel blocker used to treat hypertension and angina) in patients having mutant multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene.
In the CsA patient group (n = 30), age (p = 0.008), hypertension (p = 0.017), renal dysfunction (p < 0.001), ABCB1C1236T (p < 0.001), and G2677T/A (p = 0.014) were associated with neurotoxicities.
We found that the VEGF rs2010963 CG + GG genotypes had a significantly increased risk of hand-foot syndrome, and the ABCB1rs1045642 CT + TT genotypes had an increased risk of high blood pressure.
Preoperative ocular factors (visual acuity, tractional retinal detachment, panretinal photocoagulation [PRP]), demographics and clinical factors (sex, age, diabetic duration, HbA1c, hypertension, anticoagulant medication, and kidney function), surgical procedures, and postoperative complications were compared between patients who developed postoperative NVG (9.3%) and those who did not.
Circulating Vitamin K Is Inversely Associated with Incident Cardiovascular Disease Risk among Those Treated for Hypertension in the Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study (Health ABC).
Angiotensin II-induced hypertension altered vascular glutathione flux by increasing GSSG export and decreasing vascular levels of glutathione in wild-type (FVB) but not in MRP1-/- mice.
Multivariate analysis revealed that the odds of CHF was higher in females [Odds Ratio (OR) = 2·9, P < 0·01], individuals with pre-HCT chest radiation (OR = 4·7, P = 0·05), hypertension (OR = 2·9, P = 0·01), and with variants of genes coding for the NAD(P)H-oxidase subunit RAC2 (rs13058338, 7508T→A; OR = 2·8, P < 0·01), HFE (rs1799945, 63C→G; OR = 2·5, P = 0·05) or the doxorubicin efflux transporter ABCC2 (rs8187710, 1515G→A; OR = 4·3, P < 0·01).
