Abstract P480: Effects Of Long And Intermediate Acting Dihydropyridine Calcium Channel Blockers In Hypertension: A Systematic Review And Aeta-analysis Of 18 Prospective, Actively Controlled, Randomized Clinical Trials Session Title: Antihypertensive Drugs and Pharmacology, Patient-Provider-Healthcare System Issues, and Pediatric and Adolescent Hypertension
Conclusions: This study suggests that Amlodipine offers greater protection against major complications of hypertension compared to intermediate acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers.

Abstract 70: Eplerenone Increases Dilation and the Diameter of Cerebral Penetrating Arterioles in Rats with Sustained Hypertension Oral Session IX: Concurrent A Aldosterone, Its Receptors and Other Hormones
Hypertension is linked to dementia in humans, as well as remodeling and dysfunction in large cerebral arteries. The effects of hypertension on cerebral microvessels, such as penetrating arterioles (PenA), are still unknown. These arterioles are the bottlenecks bridging the pial circulation to the deep parenchymal microcirculation, and they are vital for neurovascular coupling and functional hyperemia. Mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonism reverses hypertension-induced changes in large cerebral arteries. Thus, we hypothesized that MR antagonism will improve PenA dilation and structure in adult rats with sustained hyper...
