[Role of activated cells and local inflammatory mechanisms in the development of hypertension]

LELBACH Ádám, KOLLER Ákos

[In the past decades an increasing attention has been paid regarding the possible role of the immune system in the development of hypertension. In vitro and in vivo animal experiments, as well as human studies provided evidence for the role of the innate and adaptive immune systems in the development of hypertension, especially in connection with the perivascular adipose tissue, heart and kidney. Inflammatory mediators, cytokines, reactive oxygen metabolites have not only local pro-hypertensive... tovább »

[The importance of the increase in the use of fix dosage combination of calcium channel blockers in the domestic medical practice between 2007 and 2013]

BARNA István, GYURCSÁNYI András

[Antihipertensive therapy in the complex treatment of diabetes mellitus, obesity and lipid metabolism disorder was discussed, which also means the fight against the emergence of cardiometabolic syndrome and chronic renal failure as well. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor antagonists (ARBs), calcium channel blockers (CCB), b-blockers and thiazid diuretics with “A” level of evidence reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The main effect of CCBs is... tovább »

[Monitoring of effectiveness of ramipril-amlodipine fixed combination in metabolic syndrome, a non-interventional trial (The RAMSES Study)]

TOMCSÁNYI János, SIMONYI Gábor

[Hypertension is a cardiovascular risk factor. The 6th Cardiovascular Consensus Conference has recommended metabolic syndrome in high-risk category. In diabetic patients hypertension is observed in most cases. Aims: Monitoring the effectiveness and safety of the fix combination of ra - mipril/amlodipine therapy in patients with metabolic syndrome suffering from mild or moderate hypertension despite current antihypertensive treatment. Patients and methods: Open, prospective, phase IV clinical... tovább »

[Effects of peripheral resistance lowering and elevating beta-blockers on central blood pressure - nebivolol in focus]

BENCZÚR Béla

[Central blood pressure, that is, blood pressure (BP) in the ascending aorta, is considered an important physiologic parameter as it reflects the hemodynamic relationship between the heart and the aorta, both in systole and in diastole. In the systolic phase, central BP represents the pressure against which the left ventricle has to eject blood during systolic contraction. Thus, central arterial pressure reflects both left ventricular stroke volume and afterload, defines cardiac work, and... tovább »

[The selective imidazoline I agonist rilmenidine in the combined antihypertensive therapy]

KÉKES Ede

[The rilmenidin as a imidazoline agonist drug strongly decreases the central simpathetic activity, renine release and the RAS activity. Because of these advantageous properties the peripheral vascular resistance falls and the blood pressure decreases. It is very useful especially in stress induced hypertension. The antihypertensive effects of ACE inhibitors and calciumantagonists are increased by rilmenidine. This drug decreases the inzuline resistance, it has a positive effect on the... tovább »
