DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.12832
Abstract: Hypertension is a major contributor to cardiac diastolic dysfunction. Different therapeutics strategies have been proposed to control blood pressure (BP), but their independent impact on cardiac function remains undetermined. In patients with resistant hypertension, we… read more here.

Patiromer versus placebo to enable spironolactone use in patients with resistant hypertension and chronic kidney disease (AMBER): results in the pre‐specified subgroup with heart failure
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "European Journal of Heart Failure"
DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.1860
Abstract: The AMBER trial demonstrated that concomitant use of patiromer enabled the more persistent use of spironolactone by reducing the risk of hyperkalaemia in patients with resistant hypertension and advanced chronic kidney disease. We report herein… read more here.

Medication Non-adherence: a Major Cause of Resistant Hypertension
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Current Cardiology Reports"
DOI: 10.1007/s11886-020-01400-3
Abstract: As the global burden of hypertension continues to rise, it remains suboptimally controlled despite increased awareness. Poor medication adherence is a well-recognized although underestimated contributing factor of uncontrolled hypertension. This review focuses on medication non-adherence… read more here.
