Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to explore the underlying mechanisms that lead to hypertension in glomerular diseases and the advancements in treatment strategies and to provide clinicians with valuable insights into the pathophysiological mechanisms and evidence-based therapeutic approaches for managing hypertension in patients with glomerular diseases. RECENT FINDINGS In recent years, there have been remarkable advancements in our understanding of the immune and non-immune mechanisms that are involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension in glomerular diseases. Furthermore, this review will encompass the latest data on management strategies, including RAAS inhibition, endothelin receptor blockers, SGLT2 inhibitors, and immune-based therapies. Hypertension (HTN) and cardiovascular diseases are leading causes of mortality in glomerular diseases. The latter are intricately related with hypertension and share common pathophysiological mechanisms. Hypertension in glomerular disease represents a complex and multifaceted interplay between kidney dysfunction, immune-mediated, and non-immune-mediated pathology. Understanding the complex mechanisms involved in this relationship has evolved significantly over the years, shedding light on the pathophysiological processes underlying the development and progression of glomerular disease-associated HTN, and is crucial for developing effective therapeutic strategies and improving patients' outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Hypertension (HTN) and nondipping are modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Limited studies are available for childhood-onset SLE (cSLE). We aimed to assess ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) pattern in cSLE patients with normal office blood pressure. METHODS This cross-sectional single-center study enrolled 25 patients with cSLE, normal office blood pressure and normal renal function. We performed 24-hour ABPM and echocardiography to assess end-organ damage. Descriptive statistics were obtained, and comparison of variables using Fisher exact test, t test, and Mann-Whitney U test was performed to identify potential risk factors for nondipping. RESULTS Of the 25 patients, 22 were women; the median age was 18 years (interquartile range, 16-20 years). Median SLE duration was 4.2 years (interquartile range, 2.9-8.1 years); 18 patients had a history of lupus nephritis (LN). Four patients, 3 of whom had LN, had masked HTN. Fourteen patients (56%) were nondipping. The majority of patients without LN (71%) had a nondipping profile. Echocardiography was done for 15 patients. Left ventricular mass index, relative wall thickness, and ejection fraction were normal in all patients. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring results led to changes in therapy in 5 patients. CONCLUSION Our data provide evidence of high prevalence of nondipping and masked HTN in patients with cSLE, even in patients without LN. Identifying ABPM abnormalities in these patients could potentially improve outcomes.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Solid organs transplantation procedures have been performed for more than half a century. Growing knowledge of immune response and development of new immunosuppressive regimens guarantee more and more successful outcomes. However, many of the applied drugs lead to cardiovascular complications, the most frequent of which is hypertension. This article describes epidemiology, pathogenetic mechanisms, and treatment of hypertension induced by immunosuppressive medication. The main impact is focused on drugs belonging to the following groups: calcineurin inhibitors, the inhibitors of the mammalian target of rapamycin, and glucocorticosteroids. We analyze the mechanism of action of the main hypertensive drugs and their influence on the reversing hypertonic action of the immunosuppressive agents. In the absence of current guidelines addressing this problem, this article is an attempt to fill the gap, helping clinicians to choose proper medication.

Deep sequencing of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGE) genes reveals genetic susceptibility for cross-reactive hypersensitivity to NSAID. Br J Pharmacol 2021; 178:1218-1233.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cross-reactive hypersensitivity to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is a relatively common adverse drug event caused by two or more chemically unrelated drugs and that is attributed to inhibition of the COX activity, particularly COX-1. Several studies investigated variations in the genes coding for COX enzymes as potential risk factors. However, these studies only interrogated a few single nucleotide variations (SNVs), leaving untested most of the gene sequence. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH In this study, we analysed the whole sequence of the prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase genes, PTGS1 and PTGS2, including all exons, exon-intron boundaries and both the 5' and 3' flanking regions in patients with cross-reactive hypersensitivity to NSAIDs and healthy controls. After sequencing analysis in 100 case-control pairs, we replicated the findings in 540 case-control pairs. Also, we analysed copy number variations for both PTGS genes. KEY RESULTS The most salient finding was the presence of two PTGS1 single nucleotide variations, which are significantly more frequent in patients than in control subjects. Patients carrying these single nucleotide variations displayed a significantly and markedly lower COX-1 activity as compared to non-carriers for both heterozygous and homozygous patients. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Although the risk single nucleotide variations are present in a small proportion of patients, the strong association observed and the functional effect of these single nucleotide variations raise the hypothesis of genetic susceptibility to develop cross-reactive NSAID hypersensitivity in individuals with an impairment in COX-1 enzyme activity.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize the currently known side effects of the approved therapies of multiple sclerosis and to suggest monitoring procedures. RECENT FINDINGS The progress in the treatment of multiple sclerosis with new very effective therapies is accompanied by a number of side effects. Some of these have already been described in the approval studies, but some only after approval in a real world situation. The reason for this is the short duration of the clinical studies, the very heterogeneous patient profile in the real world setting with a number of comorbidities, pretherapies, and wider age range. The side effects may occur during application of therapies or afterwards during the course of the treatment. The side effects may range from mild infections, mild laboratory abnormalities, secondary autoimmune diseases to life-threatening side effects such as progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy. SUMMARY It has to be pointed out that these side effects are not to be considered as final and neurologists should be vigilant against new unknown side effects. The doctor should be aware of these undesirable effects, should weigh the benefits of the therapies against the risks, but at the same time she/he should keep in mind that multiple sclerosis can be a very disabling disease if not treated properly.

Abstract
The spondyloarthritides are a group of chronic systemic inflammatory joint diseases, the main types being ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Evidence accumulating during the last decades suggests that patients with AS or PsA carry an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death. This risk appears to be mediated by systemic inflammation over and above classical cardiovascular risk factors. The excess cardiovascular risk in those patients has been formally acknowledged by scientific organizations, which have called physicians' attention to the matter. The application by Rheumatologists of new effective anti-rheumatic treatments and treat-to-target strategies seems to benefit patients from a cardiovascular point of view, as well. However, more data are needed in order to verify whether anti-rheumatic treatments do have an effect on cardiovascular risk and whether there are differences among them in this regard. Most importantly, a higher level of awareness of the cardiovascular risk is needed among patients and healthcare providers, better tools to recognize at-risk patients and, ultimately, commitment to address in parallel both the musculoskeletal and the cardiovascular aspect of the disease.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the association between physical health conditions and quality of life and functioning in private psychiatric inpatients. We sought to determine whether quality of life and functioning was poorer in individuals with physical comorbidity compared to those without. A quantitative correlational descriptive design was utilized. Seventy patients were included in sequential order within a week of admission to hospital. Participants completed the SF-36 survey, and the corresponding hospital records were audited. The STROBE guidelines were followed in the reporting of this research. The study found that 64.3% (45/70) of participants had one or more comorbid physical health conditions, primarily cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, endocrine and medically unexplained conditions or syndromes. Chronic pain was experienced by 40% (28/70) of participants, and 47.6% (33/70) were found to be overweight or obese. Tobacco smoking and obesity were risk factors associated with physical comorbidity (P = 0.02 and P < 0.001, respectively). Quality of life and functioning were poorer in those with physical health conditions, particularly in the SF-36 domains of bodily pain, physical functioning and general health (P < 0.001, P = 0.003 and P = 0.005, respectively). Physical health conditions were largely prevalent, and quality of life and functioning were poorer in those with physical comorbidities. The implementation of clinical guidelines for the monitoring of physical health has been proposed as well as a dedicated physical health nursing role. Continuation of integrative programmes focusing on both physical and mental health may also benefit patients in this setting.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the risk of hospitalization associated with the concomitant prescription of 10 highly prevalent drug-drug interactions (DDIs) among all individuals aged ≥65 residing in Bologna's area, Italy. We used incidence density sampling, and the effect of current (last month) and past (≥30 days before) exposure to DDI was investigated through conditional multivariable logistic regression analysis. Two DDIs were associated with increased hospitalization due to DDI related conditions: ACE-inhibitors/ diuretics plus glucocorticoids (current DDI: OR 2.36, 95% CI 1.94-2.87; past DDI: OR 1.36, 95% CI 1.12-1.65) and antidiabetic therapy plus current use of fluoroquinolones (OR 4.43, 95% CI 1.61-11.2). Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) increased the risk of re-bleeding in patients taking Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (OR 5.56, 95% CI 1.24-24.9), while no significant effect was found in those without a history of bleeding episodes. Concomitant prescription of NSAIDs and ACE-inhibitors/diuretics in patients with a history of high-risk conditions was infrequent. Within the pattern of drug prescriptions in the older population of Bologna's area, we distinguished DDIs with actual clinical consequences from others that might be considered generally safe. Observed prescribing habits of clinicians reflect awareness of potential interactions in patients at risk.

Abstract
Introduction: Several reports suggest a possible association between polymorphisms in the cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) gene and the risk for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-related adverse gastrointestinal events, including gastrointestinal bleeding. Because findings were controversial, a systematic review and a meta-analysis of eligible studies on this putative association was conducted.Areas covered: The authors have revised the relationship between CYP2C9 polymorphisms and the risk of developing NSAID-related gastrointestinal bleeding, as well as other adverse gastrointestinal events, and performed meta-analyzes. The bias effect and potential sources of heterogeneity between studies was analyzed.Expert opinion: Individuals classified as poor metabolizers after CYP2C9 genotyping (activity scores equal to 0 or 0.5) have an increased risk of developing NSAID-related gastrointestinal adverse events with an odds ratio (OR) = 1.86, (p = 0.004) and the OR for subjects with gastrointestinal bleeding is = 1.90, (p = 0.003). Gene-dose effect for variant CYP2C9 alleles (p = 0.005 for all gastrointestinal adverse events, and p = 0.0001 for bleeding patients) was observed. Also, there is an allele-specific effect in the association: CYP2C9*2 is a poor risk predictor, whereas CYP2C9*3 is a highly significant predictor of gastrointestinal adverse events (p = 0.006) and gastrointestinal bleeding (p = 0.0007).

Abstract
Untoward side effects of pharmaceuticals can result in considerable morbidity and expense to the health care system. There is likely a sizable fraction of the hypertensive population with disease either induced or exacerbated by polypharmacy. The elevation of blood pressure in drug-induced hypertension occurs through a variety of mechanisms, most notably, sodium and fluid retention, activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, alteration of vascular tone, or a combination of these pathways. Recognition of common medications causing drug-induced hypertension is important to effectively control blood pressure. The epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management of these agents are discussed.

Abstract
The most important issue of modern pharmacotherapy is not only efficacy, but also the safety of medicines. The use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is one of the main methods of treating acute and chronic pain in a wide range of diseases and pathological conditions. However, the prescription of this group of drugs requires consideration of the potential risks of complications, including from the side of the cardiovascular system. The purpose of the review was to assess the adverse reactions of the cardiovascular system when taking NSAIDs and approaches to their reduction. The article presents data on the mutual potential impact of cardiovascular diseases and musculoskeletal system, presents the results of large-scale studies of Russian and foreign authors and meta-analyzes of the NSAIDs effect on blood pressure profile, development of myocardial infarction, stroke and heart failure. The possible pathogenetic mechanisms of the side effects of NSAIDs are reviewed; the complexity of managing comorbid patients is demonstrated; it is shown that symptomatic treatment of pain and inflammatory syndrome should be carried out considering a personalized approach to the patient and rational choice of drugs.Before the NSAIDs prescription, it is necessary to consider all cardiovascular risk factors with the determination of the total risk of cardiovascular complications. In patients with a very high cardiovascular risk, the use of any NSAIDs should be avoided; with high and moderate risk, the use of NSAIDs with the most favorable cardiovascular safety profile is possible. If the patient belongs to the category of low total coronary risk, the doctor can choose any NSAIDs.

Abstract
Patients with uncontrolled hypertension are at risk for cardiovascular complications. The majority of them suffers from unidentified forms of hypertension and a fraction has so-called secondary hypertension with an identifiable cause. The patient's medications, its use of certain herbal supplements and over-the-counter agents represent potential causal factors for secondary hypertension that are often overlooked. The current review focuses on drugs that are likely to elevate blood pressure by affecting the human endocrine system at the level of steroid synthesis or metabolism, mineralocorticoid receptor activity, or by affecting the catecholaminergic system. Drugs with known adverse effects but where benefits outweigh their risks, drug candidates and market withdrawals are reviewed. Finally, potential therapeutic strategies are discussed.

Abstract
Though drug adherence is supposed to be low in hypertensive crisis (HTN-C), there are no data available from direct adherence assessments. The aim of the present study was to evaluate adherence to prescribed antihypertensives and potential interactions of concomitant drugs and foods with prescribed antihypertensives in patients with HTN-C by a direct evaluation via biochemical urine analysis. In the present cross-sectional study, 100 patients with HTN-C, admitted to the emergency department (ED), were included. A biochemical urine analysis using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was performed. Out of 100 patients, 86 received antihypertensives. Urine analyses could be evaluated unambiguously in 62 patients. In 15 of these 62 patients (24%), a nonadherence could be demonstrated, and in 21 patients (34%), a partial nonadherence could be demonstrated. Patients with nonadherence or partial nonadherence showed a longer hypertension history (15[5-22] vs 10[3-15] years, P = 0.04) were prescribed more general medication (number 7.1 ± 3.4 vs 3.4 ± 1.8; P < 0.01) as well as antihypertensive drugs (number 2.8 ± 1.1 vs 1.5 ± 0.7, P < 0.01). A potential BP-raising trigger by medications or food interaction was frequently detectable, predominantly with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs; n = 38), glucocorticoids (n = 8), antidepressants (n = 10), and licorice (n = 10). Nonadherence and partial nonadherence to prescribed antihypertensives might play a crucial role for the occurrence of HTN-C. However, further case-controlled studies are needed to confirm the present findings. Ingestion of concurrent over-the-counter drugs such as NSAIDs but also prescribed drugs as well as aliments may lead to critical BP elevation. In order to prevent HTN-C, the present findings emphasize the importance for clinicians to pay attention to the issue of adherence and co-medication.
