Plasma renin activity and aldosterone concentration in the human newborn.
Twenty-one healthy newborn infants whose mothers had normal pregnancies and deliveries were studied. Plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone concentration (PAldo) were measured by semimicro methods in cord blood and on the 6th day of life. PRA and PAldo were increased in cord blood compared with values previously found in healthy infants between 1 month and 1 year of age. There was a...
متن کاملPlatelet angiotensin II binding and plasma renin concentration, plasma renin substrate and plasma angiotensin II in human pregnancy.
1. The results are presented of a cross-sectional study of 25 non-pregnant and 125 pregnant/postnatal women in whom platelet angiotensin II binding and plasma angiotensin II, plasma renin concentration and plasma renin substrate were measured. 2. Platelet angiotensin II binding was significantly lower in the first-trimester patients as compared with the non-pregnant women (P less than 0.001). S...
متن کاملPlasma renin activity and renin-substrate concentration in patients with liver disease.
Peripheral venous renin activity was determined by the method of Boucher in 15 patients with cirrhosis of the liver and ascites who were on an unrestricted sodium intake. Positive sodium balance was present in all subjects. Marked elevation of mean plasma renin activity (43 ng angiotensin II/min per liter, SD ± 38) was present. The mean plasma renin activity in 16 normal ambulatory subjects on ...
متن کاملPlasma renin substrate concentration during chronic propranolol therapy.
The review by Gordon 1 concerning a positive correlation between plasma renin substrate concentration (PRS) and blood pressure (BP) prompted us to evaluate our PRS data from a randomized double-blind study on the antihypertensive effect of enalapril (MK 421) compared to propranolol. Twenty-two patients with essential hypertension were treated in subsequent 4-week periods by placebo and 40, 80, ...
متن کاملAssociation of antithrombin activity with plasma aldosterone concentration and plasma renin activity in pregnant women.
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that the blood antithrombin (AT) activity is correlated with the plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), the plasma renin activity (PRA), and/or the PAC-to-PRA ratio during the late stage of pregnancy. METHODS The AT activity, PAC, and PRA were determined within 7 days prior to delivery in 47 women, consisting of 30 normotensive and 6 hypertensive women with s...
