losartan and Abnormality, Heart

losartan has been researched along with Abnormality, Heart in 4 studies

Losartan: An antagonist of ANGIOTENSIN TYPE 1 RECEPTOR with antihypertensive activity due to the reduced pressor effect of ANGIOTENSIN II.
losartan : A biphenylyltetrazole where a 1,1'-biphenyl group is attached at the 5-position and has an additional trisubstituted imidazol-1-ylmethyl group at the 4'-position

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"A case of severe early-onset Marfan syndrome (MFS) led us to ask the question: 'Should an ARB, particularly losartan [intervention], compared with beta blockade alone [comparison], be commenced in all paediatric MFS patients [patient] with aortic root dilatation [outcome]?' The current literature was critically appraised to address this question."7.81Losartan therapy for cardiac disease in paediatricMarfan syndrome. ( Adès, L; Ewans, LJ; Roberts, P, 2015)
"Despite the retrospective design of the study and the small sample size, a beneficial effect of losartan therapy was observed in pediatric patients with Marfan syndrome in the mid and long term."7.81[Aortic root dilatation rate in pediatric patients with Marfan syndrome treated with losartan]. ( Angeli, E; Bonvicini, M; Donti, A; Gargiulo, GD; Guidarini, M; Lovato, L; Mariucci, E; Picchio, FM; Wischmeijer, A, 2015)
