Comparison of effects of Enalapril, Ramipril and Amlodipine on blood sugar levels in ill-controlled type 2 Diabetes mellitus patients
Introduction: Insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension may co-exist in 15-25 % of individuals in industrialized countries. Vasodilator amodipine, ramipril and enalapril being commonly used drugs, were selected to see...

β1-Adrenoreceptor Polymorphisms and Blood Pressure
BACKGROUND: Activation of beta-1 adrenoreceptor (β1-AR) in the kidney releases renin that plays a major role in the maintenance of blood pressure. Genetic variation in β1-AR could therefore alter the physiological and clinical...
Relations between dairy product intake and blood pressure

A Novel Approach to Organize Blood Donation Camp and Blood Unit Wastage Management
In the countries or areas where the supply-demand ratio of blood is not maintained, the medication process is being deteriorated, and this may be as fatal as death of the patients. It is being observed in different areas in...

Clinical relevance of central blood pressure - a critical review.
Vital organs are exposed to the central rather than the brachial blood pressure. To date, central blood pressure can be assessed noninvasively through the use of several devices. In this review, we critically discuss the...
