BACKGROUND: Renal denervation (RDN) is an innovative procedure designed to regulate the renal sympathetic nervous system for the control of arterial hypertension (HTN). RDN has emerged as an alternative for patients with resistant HTN. However, the clinical efficacy of RDN remains incompletely elucidated...

Abstract: Studies have found that blood flow to the renal medulla is an important determinant of pressure-natriuresis and the long-term regulation of arterial pressure. First, a brief review of methods developed enabling the study of the medullary circulation is presented. Second, studies performed in ra...

INTRODUCTION: The long-term efficacy of renal denervation (RDN) has not been extensively documented.
AIM: To describe the long-term follow-up of patients after RDN.
METHODS: We evaluated patients with resistant hypertension (RH) who underwent RDN with irrigated catheter from 2012 to 2014 at a single cent...

BACKGROUND: The optimal management of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors during elective surgeries remains uncertain. While some studies suggest that continuing ACE inhibitors increase the risk of perioperative hypotension, others argue that discontinuation may heighten the risk of significan...
BACKGROUND: Embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) is a nonlacunar ischemic stroke with no clear cause, having a 4%-5% annual recurrence rate. The potential benefits of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) relative to aspirin in patients with ESUS remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to perform a syst...
A woman in her 50s with a history of hypertension, insulin-dependent diabetes, dyslipidemia, coronary artery bypass grafting surgery in 2017, and a past smoking habit presented with chest pain of a 6-hour duration. The pain was oppressive in nature and accompanied by profuse sweating. The ECG during admi...
INTRODUCTION: Resistant arterial hypertension (RAH) is one of the main causes of increased cardiovascular risk around the world. The benefits of ultrasound renal denervation (uRDN) as a non-invasive treatment are still not fully clear.
AIM: We aim to demonstrate the efficacy of uRDN in reducing office bl...
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to evaluate quality indicators of secondary health care in chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS: This retrospective longitudinal study was conducted in an outpatient medical nephrology clinic of the Brazilian Unified Health System (UHS) and a multidisciplina...
INTRODUCTION: Renal denervation has been associated with substantial and sustained blood pressure reduction and is considered to serve as an alternative treatment for patients with resistant hypertension. However, the first published SHAM-controlled trial assessing RDN safety and efficacy showed no diffe...
