Development and external validation of prognostic models to predict sudden and pump-failure death in patients with HFrEF from PARADIGM-HF and ATMOSPHERE
CONCLUSION: We developed and validated models which separately predict SD and PFD in patients with HFrEF. These models may help clinicians and patients consider therapies targeted at these modes of death.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: PARADIGM-HF: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01035255, ATMOSPHERE: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00853658.PMID:34101002 | DOI:10.1007/s00392-021-01888-x (Source: Clinical Lung Cancer)

The effect of neprilysin and renin inhibition on the renal dysfunction following ischemia ‐reperfusion injury in the rat
RAS blockade by a renin inhibitor (aliskiren) or neprilysin inhibition by sacubitril separately led to significant attenuation in the renal IRI ‐induced renal dysfunction. The combination of aliskiren and sacubitril was more effective than either one alone. AbstractThe natriuretic peptide (NP) system counter ‐regulates the renin‐angiotensin system (RAS), so enhancing the activity of natriuretic peptides (NPs) may be beneficial in conditions when RAS is activated such as ischemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI). Neprilysin is the key enzyme responsible for the degradation of NPs. The effects of neprilysin inhibition or the...

Effect of direct renin inhibition on vascular function after long-term treatment with aliskiren in hypertensive and diabetic patients
Conclusion: Aliskiren restored endothelial function and induced a more prompt peripheral vasodilation in hypertensive and diabetic patients possibly through the increased production of nitric oxide via the enhanced expression and function of the active phosphorylated form of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.

Application of supercritical fluid chromatography for separation and quantitation of fifteen co-formulated binary anti-hypertensive medications using a single elution protocol.
Abstract A facile supercritical fluid chromatography method is proposed to analyze fifteen co-formulated binary anti-hypertensive drug combinations using a customized elution procedure. The effect of mobile phase composition, column back pressure and temperature were suitably optimized for adequate retention, analyte response and resolution. The chromatographic separation of different drug combinations was performed on DCPak P4VP (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) column at 125 bar pressure and 40 °C using photo diode array detector. A linear gradient of CO2 and 0.1% formic acid in methanol provided the best elution ...

Aliskiren Reduces the Adrenal Zona Glomerulosa Apoptosis and Autophagy in Wistar Rats with 2K1C Hypertension.
Authors: de Matos VS, do Nascimento ALR, Pereira PG, Rabelo K, Andrade CBV, Moraes ACN, Salata C, Araújo VHVO, Ciambarella BT, Bonfim Vieira A, Alves LL, da Silva JFR, de Carvalho JJ Abstract Hypertension is a disease classified as primary or secondary, manifested not only by elevation of blood pressure but also involved in structural and functional changes of target organs. Renal artery stenosis is a leading factor of secondary hypertension, and its progress is associated with overactivation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Aliskiren is a renin inhibiting drug that suppresses RAAS and ...

Therapeutic effects of various renin angiotensin modulators on hyperglycemia-induced cataract formation in Sprague Dawley rats.
CONCLUSION: Overall, our findings suggest that topical treatment with renin angiotensin modulators delayed the onset of diabetes-induced cataract formation. PMID: 33016125 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: European Journal of Ophthalmology)

Inpatient Initiation of Sacubitril/Valsartan.
Conclusions: Sacubitril/valsartan should be considered for hemodynamically stable patients with HFrEF (New York Heart Association class II or III), potassium <5.2 mmol/L, without a history of angioedema, and after a 36-hour washout from angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or aliskiren, if applicable. An appropriate dose can be determined based on the patient's previous ACE inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker dose and/or blood pressure along with patient-specific factors. To overcome barriers of use, the following are recommended: NT-proBNP or BNP with establishment of a new baseline 1 month after initiat...
