Hypothalamic-pituitary function was studied in 45 patients with idiopathic GH deficiency (GHD), 33 of whom had pituitary abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging: hypoplasia, undescended stalk and ectopia the posterior lobe 8 isolated GHD (IGHD) (group I) 12 multiple hormone (MPHD) II); hypoplasia 13 IGHD III); no evidence remaining IV). Sellar volumes were significantly lower groups I, II, III than group IV (P less 0.001). No significant differences observed between I II response to...
The aim of this study was to compare the effects angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor perindopril and angiotensin II antagonist losartan on insulin sensitivity plasma fibrinogen in overweight hypertensive patients. Twenty-eight mild moderate [diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >90 <110 mm Hg] hypertensives aged 43-64 years, after a 4-week placebo period, were randomized perindopril, 4 mg o.d., or losartan, 50 for 6 weeks. Then, new patients crossed alternative regimen further At end...
This study compared the effect of antihypertensive treatment with valsartan or ramipril on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence, P-wave dispersion, (PWD) and serum procollagen type I carboxy terminal peptide (PIP).A total 369 mild hypertensive (systolic blood pressure (SBP) >140 and/or 90 < diastolic (DBP) 110 mm Hg) outpatients in sinus rhythm but at least two episodes AF previous 6 months were randomized to (n = 122), 124), amlodipine 123) for 1 year. Clinic (BP) a 24-h electrocardiogram...
Little is known regarding coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) clinical spectrum in non-Asian populations. We herein describe the impact of COVID-19 on liver function 100 consecutive patients (median age 70 years, range 25-97; 79 males) who were admitted to our internal medicine unit March 2020. retrospectively assessed tests, taking into account demographic characteristics and outcome. A patient was considered as having injury when alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 50 mU/ml, gamma-glutamyl...
COVID-19 infection causes respiratory pathology with severe interstitial pneumonia and extra-pulmonary complications; in particular, it may predispose to thromboembolic disease. The current guidelines recommend the use of thromboprophylaxis patients COVID-19, however, optimal heparin dosage treatment is not well-established. We conducted a multicentre, Italian, retrospective, observational study on admitted ordinary wards, describe clinical characteristic at admission, bleeding thrombotic...
Background:This study compared the effects of losartan and perindopril on plasma plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) fibrinogen in hypertensive type 2 diabetic patients.
Background:The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect valsartan compared with atenolol on sexual behavior in hypertensive postmenopausal women.
The aim of this study was to compare the effect valsartan/amlodipine and atenolol/amlodipine combination in preventing recurrence atrial fibrillation (AF) hypertensive diabetic patients with a history recent paroxysmal fibrillation. Two hundred ninty-six well-controlled type 2 diabetes sinus rhythm but at least ECG-documented episodes AF previous 6 months were randomized 160 mg valsartan plus amlodipine (titrated from 2.5 10 mg) or 100 atenolol (2.5 addition their antiarrhythmic treatment...

This study evaluated the effect of telmisartan, ramipril, and amlodipine on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence severity in hypertensive patients with metabolic syndrome. A total 391 outpatients syndrome, sinus rhythm but at least 2 episodes AF previous 6 months were randomized to or for 1 year. At first AF, ventricular rate (VR) plasma cardiac troponin I (TnI) evaluated. P-wave dispersion (PWD) procollagen type carboxy-terminal peptide (PIP) before after 12 treatment. Systolic blood...
Objective The aim of this study was to compare the chronic effects four dihydropyridine calcium antagonists with different pharmacologic characteristics, amlodipine, felodipine, lacidipine and manidipine, on blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) plasma norepinephrine (NE) levels in patients mild moderate essential hypertension. Method After a 4-week placebo period, 60 both sexes were randomly administered amlodipine 5–10 mg once daily (o.d.) (n = 15); felodipine o.d. 4–6 manidipine 10–20 15),...
