Renin–angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors — including angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) — slow the progression of mild or moderate ...

Interruption or blocking of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone systems can reverse cardiac fibrosis and hypertensive vascular remodeling, and improve hypertensive left-ventricular hypertrophy. Local ...

Angiotensin II receptor antagonists are agents used to modify the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) through blocking angiotensin receptors. This has the effect of lowering blood pressure.

Anyone who is taking a diuretic and a renin-angiotensin system (RSA) inhibitor for high blood pressure should be cautious about also taking ibuprofen, according to new research.

Vinicius Novaes Rocha, a researcher at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora in Brazil, provides an insight into the role of the renin-angiotensin on the pathophysiology of COVID-19, paving the ...

Patients with elevated baseline plasma renin activity levels had a twofold increased risk of total or cardiovascular mortality compared with those with low levels, and the strength of the ...

Angiotensin II (AT-II)-Receptor Antagonists are Reviewed. Research focused on blocking the renin- angiotensin system (RAS) led to the discovery of angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors ...

Chronic hyperkalemia is prevalent among patients with chronic kidney disease, heart failure or other conditions treated with renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors, and has been ...
