Ultrasound Assessment of Kidney Volume in Patients with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: A Predictor of Diuretic Resistance.

Yonago acta medica

PMID: 28959123
Yonago Acta Med. 2017 Sep 15;60(3):135-144. eCollection 2017 Sep.

BACKGROUND: Diuretics are essential for treating acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), but the response is inconsistent. This study aimed to clarify whether kidney volume as assessed by ultrasound (US) predicts diuretic resistance in patients with ADHF.METHODS: We enrolled 29...

Association between plasma concentration of tolvaptan and urine volume in acute decompensated heart failure patients with fluid overload.

Cardiology journal

Kato M, Tohyama K, Ohya T, Hiro T, Hirayama A.
PMID: 27515480
Cardiol J. 2016;23(5):497-504. doi: 10.5603/CJ.a2016.0055. Epub 2016 Aug 12.

BACKGROUND: Tolvaptan (TLV) is a useful diuretic for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) with fluid overload, but its clinical response varies between patients. The aim of this study is to investigate whether plasma TLV concentrations correlate with the urine...

Does Accidental Overcorrection of Symptomatic Hyponatremia in Chronic Heart Failure Require Specific Therapeutic Adjustments for Preventing Central Pontine Myelinolysis?.

This review aims at summarizing essential aspects of epidemiology and pathophysiology of hyponatremia in chronic heart failure (CHF), to set the ground for a practical as well as evidence-based approach to treatment. As a guide through the discussion of...

Organic anion transporter 2 transcript variant 1 shows broad ligand selectivity when expressed in multiple cell lines.

Frontiers in pharmacology

Hotchkiss AG, Berrigan L, Pelis RM.
PMID: 26500550
Front Pharmacol. 2015 Oct 06;6:216. doi: 10.3389/fphar.2015.00216. eCollection 2015.

Organic anion transporter 2 (OAT2) is likely important for renal and hepatic drug elimination. Three variants of the OAT2 peptide sequence have been described - OAT2 transcript variant 1 (OAT2-tv1), OAT2 transcript variant 2 (OAT2-tv2), and OAT2 transcript variant...

Evidence for an acute antimagnesiuretic effect of triamterene derivatives.

Pharmaceutical research

PMID: 24272618
Pharm Res. 1985 Mar;2(2):90-3. doi: 10.1023/A:1016398929981.

The acute natriuretic, antikaliuretic and antimagnesiuretic effects of two triamterene derivatives, carboxybutoxytriamterene ethyl amide and dimethylaminohydroxypropoxytriamterene (RPH 2823), are shown in male Wistar rats during urine collection periods of 1 to 2.5 h. In combination with furosemide both compounds...

An efficient strategy for establishing a model of sensorineural deafness in rats.

Neural regeneration research
