The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), or renin-angiotensin-system (RAS) is a regulator of blood pressure and cardiovascular function. Dysregulated RAAS is implicated in high blood ...

Angiotensin-converting–enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor blockers are used commonly in clinical practice to treat hypertension and decrease cardiovascular events in high-risk ...

Local activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system may mediate lung injury responses to viral insults. ACE denotes angiotensin-converting enzyme, and ARB angiotensin-receptor blocker.

ACE inhibitors work by interfering with the body's renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). RAAS is a complex system responsible for regulating the body's blood pressure. The kidneys release ...

What is renin angiotensin aldosterone? The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) in your body helps control your blood pressure and blood volume. It includes renin (an enzyme), and the ...

Renal hypoperfusion occurs as a result of reduced cardiac output, resulting in the activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, which compensates for the hypoperfusion. However ...

Unique Characteristics of Hypertension in Blacks That Influence BP Responses to Drugs That Block the Renin-Angiotensin Activating System (RAAS) Blockade of the RAAS in Blacks for Cardiovascular ...

Researchers have found that prescribing guideline-directed medical treatment (GDMT), regardless of the number of medications, ...
