Association between renin‐angiotensin antagonism and COVID‐19–related mortality in patients with essential hypertension: A single center, retrospective cohort study Open
There is conflicting evidence in select mouse models and humans that suggest angiotensin‐converting enzyme 2 expression is increased due to treatment with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEI/ARB…

Amelioration of Paget Disease of Bone After Denosumab for Osteopenia Open
Although denosumab was originally approved for the treatment of osteoporosis, the inhibition of bone resorption via inhibition of the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand may be potentially effective in the treatment of PDB.

Association between RAAS Antagonism and COVID-19–related Mortality in Patients with Overweight/Obesity-related Hypertension: A Retrospective Cohort Study Open
Background Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) increase the expression of ACE2, which is a receptor for entry of SARS-CoV-2 into cells. Though evidence suggests that ARB/ACEI are safe amo…

PSAT197 Treatment of Paget's Disease of the Skull With Denosumab: A Case Report Open
Background Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is a common skeletal disorder characterized by increased osteoclastic activity and bone resorption followed by increased osteoblastic bone formation leading to an abnormality in modeling and remodel…

Patients With Obesity-Related Hypertension Treated With Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Antagonists Exhibit Lower Mortality And Less Severe COVID-19: A Retrospective Study Open
Background: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been found to exploit the cell’s ACE2 receptor for viral entry. Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) antagonism with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibito…

The Role of Pre-Hospital Telecardiology in Reducing the Coronary Reperfusion Time; a Brief Report. Open
It is likely that the use of telecardiology in pre-hospital triage plays an important role in reducing time to PCI for patients with STEMI.
