| 1 | Resolution of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis by rosuvastatin monotherapy in patients with metabolic syndrome显示文摘AIM: To investigate the effect of rosuvastatin monotherapy on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH). At present there is no effective treatment for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease or its advanced form NASH.METHODS: This prospective study included 20 biopsy proven patients with NASH, metabolic syndrome(Met S) and dyslipidaemia. Biochemical parameters of the blood of the patients and an ultrasonography of the liver were performed at baseline. Then patients receivedlifestyle advice and were treated for a 12 mo period with rosuvastatin(10 mg/d) monotherapy. Patients were re-evaluated during the study at 3 mo intervals, during which biochemical parameters of the blood were measured including liver enzymes. A repeat biopsy and ultrasonography of the liver were performed at the end of the study in all 20 patients. Changes in liver enzymes, fasting plasma glucose, serum creatinine, serum uric acid(SUA), high sensitivity C reactive protein(hs CRP) and lipid profile were assessed every 3 mo. The primary endpoint was the resolution of NASH and the secondary endpoints were the changes in liver enzyme and lipid values.RESULTS: The repeat liver biopsy and ultrasonography showed complete resolution of NASH in 19 patients, while the 20 th, which had no improvement but no deterioration either, developed arterial hypertension and substantial rise in triglyceride levels during the study, probably due to changes in lifestyle including alcohol abuse. Serum alanine transaminase, aspartate transaminase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase were normalised by the 3rd treatment month(ANOVA P < 0.001), while alkaline phosphatase activities by the 6th treatment month(ANOVA, P = 0.01). Fasting plasma glucose and glycated haemoglobin were significantly reduced(P < 0.001). Lipid values were normalised by the 3rd treatment month. No patient had Met S by the 9th treatment month. Body mass index and waist circumference remained unchanged during the study. Thus, changes in liver pathology and function should be attributed solely to rosuvastatin treatment. A limitation of the study is the absence of a control group.CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that rosuvastatin monotherapy could ameliorate biopsy proven NASH and resolve Met S within 12 mo. These effects and the reduction of fasting plasma glucose and SUA levels may reduce the risk of vascular and liver morbidity and mortality in NASH patients. These findings need confirmation in larger studies. | Konstantinos Kargiotis Vasilios G Athyros Olga Giouleme Niki Katsiki Evangelia Katsiki Panagiotis Anagnostis Chrysoula Boutari Michael Doumas Asterios Karagiannis Dimitri P Mikhailidis | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,25: | 18 |
| 2 | Management of erectile dysfunction in hypertension:Tips and tricks显示文摘Arterial hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and affects approximately one third of the adult population worldwide. The vascular origin of erectile dysfunction is now widely accepted in the vast majority of cases. Erectile dysfunction is frequently encountered in patients with arterial hypertension and greatly affects their quality of life of hypertensive patients and their sexual partners. Therefore, the management of erectile dysfunction in hypertensive patients is of paramount importance. Unfortunately, erectile dysfunction remains under-reported, under-recognized, and under-treated in hypertensive patients, mainly due to the lack of familiarity with this clinical entity by treating physicians. This review aims to discuss the more frequent problems in the management of hypertensive patients with erectile dysfunction and propose ways to overcome these problems in everyday clinical practice. | Margus Viigimaa Charalambos Vlachopoulos Antonios Lazaridis Michael Doumas | 2014 | World Journal of Cardiology2014,6,9: | 5 |
| 3 | Non-interventional management of resistant hypertension显示文摘Hypertension is one of the most popular fields of re-search in modern medicine due to its high prevalence and its major impact on cardiovascular risk and con-sequently on global health. Indeed, about one third of individuals worldwide has hypertension and is under increased long-term risk of myocardial infarction, stroke or cardiovascular death. On the other hand, resistant hypertension, the 'uncontrollable' part of arterial hy-pertension despite appropriate therapy, comprises a much greater menace since long-standing, high levels of blood pressure along with concomitant debilitating entities such as chronic kidney disease and diabetes mellitus create a prominent high cardiovascular risk milieu. However, despite the alarming consequences, resistant hypertension and its effective management still have not received proper scientific attention. As-pects like the exact prevalence and prognosis are yet tobe clarified. In an effort to manage patients with resis-tant hypertension appropriately, clinical doctors are still racking their brains in order to find the best therapeutic algorithm and surmount the substantial difficulties in controlling this clinical entity. This review aims to shed light on the effective management of resistant hyper-tension and provide practical recommendations for cli-nicians dealing with such patients. | Michael Doumas Costas Tsioufis Charles Faselis Antonios Lazaridis Haris Grassos Vasilios Papademetriou | 2014 | World Journal of Cardiology2014,6,10: | 5 |
| 4 | Assessing Nitrogen Fertilization Strategies in Winter Wheat and Cotton Crops in Northern Greece显示文摘The management of fertilizer application is crucial for agricultural production and environmental safety. The objective of this study was to assess the effciency of different fertilization strategies, applying fertilizers with and without nitrification inhibitors (NIs) in split application, in Greece. The assessment criteria used were based on crop yield, soil nitrogen (N) concentrations and economic effciency. For this purpose two crops (winter wheat and cotton) were selected in order to explore the optimum fertilization strategy for each crop. Three treatments combining fertilizers with NIs were tested compared with conventional fertilization (CF). Slight differences in the quantity and the combination of fertilizers with NIs applied resulted in variable effects on crop yield, soil N and economic return. Split N application of 102 kg ha-1, with half of the total amount applied at seeding, resulted in higher grain yield of winter wheat, lower NO3-N in soil and higher economic return. This result reveals the importance of N application at seeding in wheat crop. Fertilization strategy with 109.5 kg N ha-1 and split P application resulted in higher cotton yield and higher economic profit. Split P application seemed to increase yield, even though it is not a common practise in the area. | E. POLYCHRONAKI C. DOUMA C. GIOURGA A. LOUMOU | 2012 | Pedosphere2012,22,5: | 4 |

| 6 | Erectile dysfunction in chronic kidney disease:From pathophysiology to management显示文摘Chronic kidney disease(CKD) is encountered in millions of people worldwide,with continuously rising incidence during the past decades,affecting their quality of life despite the increase of life expectancy in these patients.Disturbance of sexual function is common among men with CKD,as both conditions share common pathophysiological causes,such as vascular or hormonal abnormalities and are both affected by similar coexisting comorbid conditions such as cardiovascular disease,hypertension and diabetes mellitus.The estimated prevalence of erectile dysfunction reaches 70% in end stage renal disease patients.Nevertheless,sexual dysfunction remains under-recognized and under-treated in a high proportion of these patients,a fact which should raise awareness among clinicians.A multifactorial approach in management and treatment is undoubtedly required in order to improve patients' quality of life and cardiovascular outcomes. | Eirini Papadopoulou Anna Varouktsi Antonios Lazaridis Chrysoula Boutari Michael Doumas | 2015 | World Journal of Nephrology2015,4,3: | 2 |
| 7 | Cardiovascular efficacy and safety of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors:A meta-analysis of cardiovascular outcome trials显示文摘BACKGROUND Dipeptidyl peptidase-4(DPP-4)inhibitors are a generally safe and well tolerated antidiabetic drug class with proven efficacy in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Recently,a series of large,randomized controlled trials(RCTs)addressing cardiovascular outcomes with DPP-4 inhibitors have been published.AIM To pool data from the aforementioned trials concerning the impact of DPP-4 inhibitors on surrogate cardiovascular efficacy outcomes and on major cardiac arrhythmias.METHODS We searched PubMed and grey literature sources for all published RCTs assessing cardiovascular outcomes with DPP-4 inhibitors compared to placebo until October 2020.We extracted data concerning the following“hard”efficacy outcomes:fatal and non-fatal myocardial infarction,fatal and non-fatal stroke,hospitalization for heart failure,hospitalization for unstable angina,hospitalization for coronary revascularization and cardiovascular death.We also extracted data regarding the risk for major cardiac arrhythmias,such as atrial fibrillation,atrial flutter,ventricular fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia.RESULTS We pooled data from 6 trials in a total of 52520 patients with T2DM assigned either to DPP-4 inhibitor or placebo.DPP-4 inhibitors compared to placebo led to a non-significant increase in the risk for fatal and non-fatal myocardial infarction[risk ratio(RR)=1.02,95%CI:0.94-1.11,I2=0%],hospitalization for heart failure(RR=1.09,95%CI:0.92-1.29,I2=65%)and cardiovascular death(RR=1.02,95%CI:0.93-1.11,I2=0%).DPP-4 inhibitors resulted in a non-significant decrease in the risk for fatal and non-fatal stroke(RR=0.96,95%CI:0.85-1.08,I2=0%)and coronary revascularization(RR=0.99,95%CI:0.90-1.09,I2=0%),Finally,DPP-4 inhibitors demonstrated a neutral effect on the risk for hospitalization due to unstable angina(RR=1.00,95%CI:0.85-1.18,I2=0%).As far as cardiac arrhythmias are concerned,DPP-4 inhibitors did not significantly affect the risk for atrial fibrillation(RR=0.95,95%CI:0.78-1.17,I2=0%),while they were associated with a significant increase in the risk for atrial flutter,equal to 52%(RR=1.52,95%CI:1.03-2.24,I2=0%).DPP-4 inhibitors did not have a significant impact on the risk for any of the rest assessed cardiac arrhythmias.CONCLUSION DPP-4 inhibitors do not seem to confer any significant cardiovascular benefit for patients with T2DM,while they do not seem to be associated with a significant risk for any major cardiac arrhythmias,except for atrial flutter.Therefore,this drug class should not be the treatment of choice for patients with established cardiovascular disease or multiple risk factors,except for those cases when newer antidiabetics(glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors)are not tolerated,contraindicated or not affordable for the patient. | Dimitrios Ioannis Patoulias Aristi Boulmpou Eleftherios Teperikidis Alexandra Katsimardou Fotios Siskos Michael Doumas Christodoulos E Papadopoulos Vassilios Vassilikos | 2021 | World Journal of Cardiology2021,13,10: | 2 |
