the destabilization of blood pressure (BP) control, particularly in
hypertensive patients treated with blockers of the renin-angiotensin
system. To assess the potential impact of nitric oxide donation, the
effects of naproxcinod with naproxen and placebo on changes in BP were
compared in a randomized clinical trial of 916 patients with
osteoarthritis after 13 weeks of therapy. In addition, the effects of
naproxcinod versus napr… Continue

was performed in 88 patients in sinus rhythm admitted for respiratory
distress. Two experts determined the cause of dyspnea as cardiogenic
(26 patients) or noncardiogenic (62 patients). RESULTS: The feasibility
was 100% for the E/A ratio and the E/E deceleration time (EDT) ratio
but 97%, 89… Continue
