The rheological properties of blood play a significant role in the onset and progression of
arterial hypertension. The aim of our work was to evaluate the effect of the angiotensin …

Background: Systemic arterial pressure (AP) depends on two physiological variables:
cardiac output (CO) and total peripheral resistance (TPR). The latter depends on vascular …

The most common form of hypertension in young adults is isolated diastolic hypertension.
Diastolic arterial pressure is determined by the total peripheral resistance and depends on …

Because of the key role blood viscosity plays in the regulation of blood pressure (BP) and
the hemorheological effects of pentoxifylline (PTX), this study was conducted to evaluate …

Objective: To investigate new aspects of the relationship between sustained reduction of
blood pressure and alteration of cardiovascular structure and function after cessation of …

In this study, the effect of the angiotensin‐converting‐enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor)
Ramipril (5 mg/day) and calcium antagonist Isradipin (5 mg/day) treatment of two groups of …

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors reduce blood pressure and attenuate cardiac and
vascular remodeling in hypertension. However, the kinetics of remodeling after …

OBJECTIVES: The effect of course administration of amlodipine on whole blood viscosity
and on macro-and microrheological parameters was evaluated. MATERIALS AND …

The purpose of the present study was to compare the effect of chronic captopril treatment on
blood pressure in young and adult spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and to assess the …

We aimed to compare the effects of chronic and acute administration of structurally different
antihypertensives, diuretics-indapamide and hydrochlorothiazide, ACE inhibitor-captopril …
