Background: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an endpoint of hypertensive cardiac
alterations. Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockers are among the most …

The treatment of hypertensive patients with losartan is very common. Despite the reduction
in blood pressure, its effects on cardiac contractility and sympathetic autonomic drive are still …

Exercise training and hypertension induced cardiac hypertrophy but modulate differently left
ventricle (LV) function. This study set out to evaluate cardiac adaptations induced by …

Background We sought to investigate effects of supervised exercise training on left
ventricular remodeling, left ventricular function and autonomic nervous system of …

We investigate whether combined treatment with losartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker,
and exercise training (ET) in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) would have an additive …

Objectives To investigate whether the combination of exercise training with the angiotensin-
converting enzyme inhibitor lisinopril will have an additional beneficial effect on left …

Background Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) secondary to hypertension has been
accepted to prevent heart failure (HF) while paradoxically increasing cardiovascular morbi …

High levels of activity of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) and sympathetic nervous
system (SNS) are related to left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). A percentage of subjects with …

Objective To evaluate the effect of low-intensity chronic exercise training (ExT) on blood
pressure (BP), as well as the cardiac alterations associated with hypertension in aging …

The decrease in cardiac sympathetic tone and heart rate after low-intensity exercise training
may have hemodynamic consequences in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The …
