Postmicturition syndrome: a neglected syndrome dangerous for the bladder and the heart
Postmicturition syndrome refers to symptoms caused by overdistension of the bladder or micturition. Bladder paraganglioma is a rare neuroendocrine neoplasm, which arises from the chromaffin tissue of the sympathetic nervous system embedded in the muscle layer of the bladder wall. Clinical presentation of catecholamine-secreting paragangliomas may mimic that of hyperfunctioning adrenal pheochromocytoma. Typical symptoms such as sweating, palpitations, headache, nausea, hypertension, or flushing are due to catecholamine release and are related to micturition or bladder overdistension.

Aerobic training reduces blood pressure and waist circumference and increases HDL-c in metabolic syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
The objective of this study is to estimate the effect of aerobic training (AT) on metabolic syndrome (MetS) outcomes. The Medline, EMBASE, SPORTDiscus, The Cochrane Library, and PEDro databases were searched from inception to May 2017. Two independent reviewers selected the studies and assessed their quality and data. The pooled mean differences between intervention groups and the control group were calculated using a random-effect model. Only randomized controlled trials that compared the effect of AT on MetS with a control group were included. (Source: Journal of the American Society of Hypertension)

Cumulative Dose of Bevacizumab Associates with Albuminuria Rather than Podocyturia In Cancer Patients
Angiogenesis inhibition with bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), is an anti-cancer treatment associated with hypertension and renal glomerular toxicity referred to as a preeclampsia-like syndrome. In preeclampsia, podocyturia predates proteinuria and clinical features of preeclampsia, and is regarded as a biomarker of ongoing glomerular injury. Using a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) of the podocyte-specific molecules nephrin, podocin and VEGF-A in the urine, we examined whether podocyturia is present in bevacizumab-treated cancer patients, and whether it ...

Post-micturition syndrome: a neglected syndrome dangerous for the bladder and the heart
Post-micturition syndrome refers to symptoms caused by over distension of the bladder or micturition. Bladder paraganglioma (BP) is a rare neuroendocrine neoplasm, which arises from the chromaffin tissue of the sympathetic nervous system embedded in the muscle layer of the bladder wall. Clinical presentation of catecholamine-secreting paragangliomas may mimic that of hyperfunctioning adrenal phaeochromocytoma. Typical symptoms such as sweating, palpitations, headache, nausea, hypertension or flushing are due to catecholamine release and are related to micturition or bladder over-distension.

Short-term exposure to dexamethasone promotes autonomic imbalance to the heart before hypertension
Hypertension is one of the chronic side effects of dexamethasone (DEX) treatment; however, almost nothing is known about its acute effects. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the possible mechanisms involved in blood pressure control after acute or short-term DEX treatment in adult animals. Eighty Wistar rats were divided into four groups: C1 and C5, for rats treated with saline for 1 or 5 days, respectively; D1 and D5, for rats treated with DEX for 1 or 5 days, respectively (decadron, 1 mg/kg, i.p.

The association between Antidepressant use and Orthostatic Hypotension in older people: a matched cohort study

Clinical value of plasma renin activity and aldosterone concentration in the evaluation of secondary hypertension, a case of reninoma
Nunes et al. present a very rare case of a renin-producing tumor (reninoma) of renal origin. Typically, reninomas are juxtaglomerular cell tumors located in the kidney. Reninomas of renal origin have been described in multiple case reports and series to cause hypertension in young persons, which usually re solves following surgical resection of the tumor.1,2 The typical presentation is that of mineralocorticoid excess with hypertension and hypokalemia, although the presentation varies from mild hypertension with normal potassium levels to severe and resistant hypertension with profound hypokalemia.
