Low-dose simvastatin improves survival and ventricular function via eNOS in congestive heart failure.
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors increase endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activity by multiple mechanisms. We previously reported that genetic overexpression of eNOS improves survival and cardiac function in congestive heart failure (CHF). In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that low-dose treatment with an 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reduc...
متن کاملSpotlight on valsartan–sacubitril fixed-dose combination for heart failure: the evidence to date
Heart failure is a global problem with elevated prevalence, and it is associated with substantial cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Treating heart-failure patients has been a very challenging task. This review highlights the main pharmacological developments in the field of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, giving emphasis to a drug that has a dual-acting inhibition of the nep...
متن کاملACE inhibitors in heart failure. What dose?
Editorial Ace inhibitors in heart failure. What dose? The role of ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitors in the treatment of heart failure is now well established. A large body of published work has demonstrated relief of symptoms, increased exercise performance, a reduction in hospital admissions and superiority to conventional vasodilators. Three large survival studies (CONSENSUS-1,' ...
متن کاملVentricular Tachycardia Ablation in Severe Heart Failure
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation among patients with structural heart disease has evolved from a procedure of last resort to one that is recommended as first-line therapy in certain patients. Still, ablation is often deferred even after implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) therapies have been delivered because of perceived risks and efficacy concerns. Patients with heart failure (H...
متن کاملDelivered dose can be a better predictor of rectal toxicity than planned dose in prostate radiotherapy
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE For the first time, delivered dose to the rectum has been calculated and accumulated throughout the course of prostate radiotherapy using megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT) image guidance scans. Dosimetric parameters were linked with toxicity to test the hypothesis that delivered dose is a stronger predictor of toxicity than planned dose. MATERIAL AND METHODS Dose-s...
