nitrendipine and Aortic Diseases

nitrendipine has been researched along with Aortic Diseases in 2 studies

Nitrendipine: A calcium channel blocker with marked vasodilator action. It is an effective antihypertensive agent and differs from other calcium channel blockers in that it does not reduce glomerular filtration rate and is mildly natriuretic, rather than sodium retentive.
nitrendipine : A dihydropyridine that is 1,4-dihydropyridine substituted by methyl groups at positions 2 and 6, a 3-nitrophenyl group at position 4, a ethoxycarbonyl group at position 3 and a methoxycarbonyl group at position 5. It is a calcium-channel blocker used in the treatment of hypertension.

Aortic Diseases: Pathological processes involving any part of the AORTA.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The relationship between the presence of arterial calcinosis and the antihypertensive response to calcium blockers was studied in 40 hypertensive patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF) on chronic hemodialysis, before and during 16 weeks after administration of nitrendipine in monotherapy."5.07Arteriosclerosis and antihypertensive response to calcium antagonists in end-stage renal failure. ( Boussac, I; Delavaux, G; Guerin, AP; London, GM; Marchais, SJ; Metivier, F, 1991)
"Aortic stiffness and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) are predictors of mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients."2.71Inflammation, arteriosclerosis, and cardiovascular therapy in hemodialysis patients. ( Adda, H; Guerin, AP; London, GM; Marchais, SJ; Metivier, F; Pannier, B, 2003)
