      Meeting Abstract
    • Inflamación y disfunción endotelial en pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca crónica 
      Greig, Douglas; Castro, Pablo; Gabrielli, Luigi A.; Miranda, Rodrigo; Verdejo, Hugo; Alcaíno Gálvez, Hernán Alejandro; Bustos, Carlos; Chiong Lay, Mario; Godoy, Iván; Mellado, Rose Marie; García Nannig, Lorena; Salas, Daniela; Vivar Sánchez, Raúl; Vukasovic Ramírez, José Luis; Concepción, Roberto; Díaz Araya, Guillermo (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2008-06)
      Background: In chronic heart failure (CHF), endothelial dysfunction (ED) is a consequence of an imbalance of vascular tone regulating substances. The relationship between ED and inflammation has not been fully investigated. ...
    • Marcadores de inflamación endotelial subclínica en una familia con hiperaldosteronismo familiar tipo I por ...

      Type I familial hyperaldosteronism is caused by the presence of a chimaeric gene CYP11B1/CYP11B2 which encodes an enzyme with aldosterone synthetase activity regulated by adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH). Therefore, ...
    • Oxidative stress and inflammation in heart failure: Mechanisms of damage and therapeutic alternatives. ... 
      Miranda, Rodrigo; Castro, Pablo; Verdejo, Hugo; Chiong Lay, Mario; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Mellado, Rose Marie; Rojas, Diego; Concepción, Roberto; Lavandero González, Sergio (SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2007-08)
      Despite advances in treatment, chronic heart failure still is associated with a pool- prognosis and remains a leading cause of cardiovascular death. Cumulatingi evidence sugigest,; that imbalances in redox state lead to a ...
    • Pharmaceutical care education at the University of Chile 
      Ruiz, Inés; Jirón Aliste, Marcela; Pinilla, E.; Paulos, Claudio; Pezzani Valenzuela, Marcela; Rubio, Betzabé; Chávez, H.; Pineda López, Rafael; Mellado, Rose Marie (AMER ASSOC COLL PHARMACY, 2002)
      The study of Pharmacy at the University of Chile has been continuously adapting to the scientific developments and change in the practice of pharmacy. The University of Chile has considered, since 1997, the internship as ...
    • Pleiotropic effects of atorvastatin in heart failure: Role in oxidative stress, inflammation, endothelial ...

      Background: Increased oxidative stress, a common feature in chronic heart failure, has been associated with inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and extracellular matrix degradation. Statins have known anti-inflammatory ...
    • Polimorfismos de los receptores - β Adrenérgicos y su relación con el riesgo de insuficiencia cardíaca, ... 
      Castro Gálvez, Pablo; Greig, Douglas; Copaja, Miguel; Alcaíno Olivares, Hernán Alejandro; Troncoso Cotal, Rodrigo Hernán; Chiong Lay, Mario; Mellado, Rose Marie; Pérez, Osvaldo; Vukasovic Ramírez, José Luis; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Corbalán, Ramón; Ocaranza, María Paz; Jalil Milad, Jorge; Lavandero González, Sergio (Sociedad Chilena de Cardilología y Cirugía Cardiovascular, 2005)
      Los polimorfismos de los receptores β Adrenérgicos (AR) influencian el grado de actividad del receptor. Los βAR tienen un rol importante en la regulación de la contractilidad y podrían tener implicancias en el riesgo de ...
    • Serum uric acid correlates with extracellular superoxide dismutase activity in patients with chronic heart failure 
      Alcaíno Gálvez, Hernán Alejandro; Greig, Douglas; Chiong Lay, Mario; Verdejo, Hugo; Miranda, Rodrigo; Concepción, Roberto; Vukasovic Ramírez, José Luis; Díaz Araya, Guillermo; Mellado, Rose Marie; García Nannig, Lorena; Salas, Daniela; González, Leticia; Godoy, Iván; Castro, Pablo; Lavandero González, Sergio (ELSEVIER, 2008-07)
      Increased serum uric acid has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, because of its antioxidant capacity, uric acid may play a beneficial role in endothelial function. This ...
