Abstract
BACKGROUND The American Heart Association (AHA), in conjunction with the National Institutes of Health, annually reports the most up-to-date statistics related to heart disease, stroke, and cardiovascular risk factors, including core health behaviors (smoking, physical activity, nutrition, sleep, and obesity) and health factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose control, and metabolic syndrome) that contribute to cardiovascular health. The AHA Heart Disease and Stroke Statistical Update presents the latest data on a range of major clinical heart and circulatory disease conditions (including stroke, brain health, complications of pregnancy, kidney disease, congenital heart disease, rhythm disorders, sudden cardiac arrest, subclinical atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, valvular disease, venous thromboembolism, and peripheral artery disease) and the associated outcomes (including quality of care, procedures, and economic costs). METHODS The AHA, through its Epidemiology and Prevention Statistics Committee, continuously monitors and evaluates sources of data on heart disease and stroke in the United States and globally to provide the most current information available in the annual Statistical Update with review of published literature through the year before writing. The 2024 AHA Statistical Update is the product of a full year's worth of effort in 2023 by dedicated volunteer clinicians and scientists, committed government professionals, and AHA staff members. The AHA strives to further understand and help heal health problems inflicted by structural racism, a public health crisis that can significantly damage physical and mental health and perpetuate disparities in access to health care, education, income, housing, and several other factors vital to healthy lives. This year's edition includes additional global data, as well as data on the monitoring and benefits of cardiovascular health in the population, with an enhanced focus on health equity across several key domains. RESULTS Each of the chapters in the Statistical Update focuses on a different topic related to heart disease and stroke statistics. CONCLUSIONS The Statistical Update represents a critical resource for the lay public, policymakers, media professionals, clinicians, health care administrators, researchers, health advocates, and others seeking the best available data on these factors and conditions.

Ultrasonographic Assessment of Atherosclerotic Renal Artery Stenosis in Elderly Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease: An Italian Cohort Study. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12061454. [PMID: 35741264 PMCID: PMC9222028 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12061454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Revised: 06/05/2022] [Accepted: 06/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Although atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis (ARAS) is strictly associated with high cardiovascular risk and mortality, it often may remain unrecognized being clinically silent and frequently masked by co-morbidities especially in elderly patients with coexisting chronic kidney disease (CKD). The present observational study was conducted in elderly CKD-patients with atherosclerosis on other arterial beds. The aims were assessment of (1) ARAS prevalence; (2) best predictor(s) of ARAS, using duplex ultrasound; and (3) cardiovascular and renal outcomes at one-year follow-up. The cohort was represented by 607 consecutive in-patients. Inclusion criteria were age ≥65 years; CKD stages 2−5 not on dialysis; single or multiple atherosclerotic plaque on epiaortic vessels, abdominal aorta, aortic arch, coronary arteries, peripheral arteries that had been previously ascertained by one or more procedures. Duplex ultrasound was used to detect ARAS. Multiple regression analysis and ROS curve were performed to identify the predictors of ARAS. ARAS was found in 53 (44%) out of 120 patients who met the inclusion criteria. In univariate analysis, GFR (b = −0.021; p = 0.02); hemoglobin (b = −0.233; p = 0.02); BMI (b = 0.134; p = 0.036) and atherosclerosis of abdominal aorta and/or peripheral vessels (b = 1.025; p < 0.001) were associated with ARAS. In multivariable analysis, abdominal aorta and/or peripheral atherosclerosis was a significant (p = 0.002) predictor of ARAS. The area under the ROC curve was 0.655 (C.I. = 0.532−0.777; p = 0.019). ARAS is common in older CKD patients with extra-renal atherosclerosis, with the highest prevalence in those with aortic and peripheral atherosclerosis. ARAS may pass by unnoticed in everyday clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Reduced renal blood flow triggers activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) leading to renovascular hypertension. Renal vascular smooth muscle expression of the NO receptor, soluble GC (sGC), modulates the vasodilator response needed to control renal vascular tone and blood flow. Here, we tested if angiotensin II (Ang II) affects sGC expression via an AT1 receptor-forkhead box subclass O (FoxO) transcription factor dependent mechanism. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Using a murine two-kidney-one-clip (2K1C) renovascular hypertension model, we measured renal artery vasodilatory function and sGC expression. Additionally, we conducted cell culture studies using rat renal pre-glomerular smooth muscle cells (RPGSMCs) to test the in vitro mechanistic effects of Ang II treatment on sGC expression and downstream function. KEY RESULTS Contralateral, unclipped renal arteries in 2K1C mice showed increased NO-dependent vasorelaxation compared to sham control mice. Immunofluorescence studies revealed increased sGC protein expression in 2K1C contralateral renal arteries over sham controls. RPGSMCs treated with Ang II caused a significant up-regulation of sGC mRNA and protein expression as well as downstream sGC-dependent signalling. Ang II signalling effects on sGC expression occurred through an AT1 receptor and FoxO transcription factor-dependent mechanism at both the mRNA and protein expression levels. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Renal artery smooth muscle, in vivo and in vitro, up-regulates expression of sGC following RAAS activity. In both cases, up-regulation of sGC leads to increased downstream cGMP signalling, suggesting a previously unrecognized protective mechanism to improve renal blood flow in the uninjured contralateral renal artery.

Abstract
Background: Hypertension is a major contributor to the development of chronic kidney disease. Data in Indonesia, hypertension is still the most comorbid disease in CKD patients on dialysis (51%). Hypertension in CKD on dialysis patients is common and often uncontrolled. Renovascular hypertension is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Diagnosis and treatment of RAS is very important, because it can accelerate the achievement of blood pressure targets, reduce the risk and complications due to hypertension.
Case Report: A 52-year-old woman with CKD has been undergoing hemodialysis for 2 years. Hypertension that was previously well controlled for 2 years required an increase in antihypertensive therapy from 2 to 4 drugs in recent months. On physical examination the blood pressure 180/90 mmHg, pulse 79 bpm, respiration 20/min, temperature 36.7oC. Conjunctiva looks anemic, cardiomegaly, lungs within normal limits, no ascites and edema in the extremities. On renal artery duplex ultrasound examination, right main renal artery acceleration time 147.65 ms, Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) 31.9 cm/s. RI 0.69 and left main renal artery acceleration time 120.81 ms, PSV 16.9 cm/s, RI 0.61. There was 20-30% left renal artery stenosis, 80% right renal artery stenosis. A stent was placed on the right renal artery. The patient's condition after PTRA improved, but at the next follow-up, mean systole and diastole 170 mmHg and 80 mmHg, respectively. Patient received 4 antihypertensive therapy.
Conclusion: Renal artery stenosis is a disease that consists of a broad spectrum of different entities with different pathophysiologies that require varied approaches to diagnose and treat. Current diagnostic tools include MRA, CTA and renal artery duplex ultrasonography. Patients with renal parenchymal disease are poorer candidates for revascularization.

Abstract
Ischemic nephropathy reflects progressive loss of kidney function due to large vessel atherosclerotic occlusive disease. Recent studies indicate that this process is characterized by microvascular rarefaction, increased tissue hypoxia and activation of inflammatory processes of tissue injury. This review summarizes the rationale and application of functional MR imaging to evaluate tissue oxygenation in human subjects that defines the limits of renal adaptation to reduction in blood flow, development of increasingly severe tissue hypoxia and recruitment of inflammatory injury pathways in ischemic nephropathy. Human mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSC) are capable of modifying angiogenic pathways and immune responses, but the potency of these effects vary between individuals and various clinical characteristics including age and chronic kidney disease and levels of hypoxia. We summarize recently completed first-in-human studies applying intrarenal infusion of autologous adipose-derived MSC in human subjects with ischemic nephropathy that demonstrate a rise in blood flow and reduction in tissue hypoxia consistent with partial repair of microvascular injury, even without restoring main renal arterial blood flow. Inflammatory biomarkers in the renal vein of post-stenotic kidneys fell after MSC infusion. These changes were associated with modest but significant dose-related increments in kidney function. These data provide support a role for autologous MSC in repair of microvascular injury associated with tissue hypoxia.

Abstract
MATERIALS AND METHODS Stenotic kidney (STK) and contralateral kidney magnetization transfer ratios (MTRs; Mt/M0) were measured at 3.0-T magnetic resonance imaging, at offset frequencies of 600 and 1000 Hz, before and 1 month post-PTRA in 7 RVD pigs. Stenotic kidney MTR was correlated to renal perfusion, renal blood flow (RBF), and glomerular filtration rate (GFR), determined using multidetector computed tomography and with ex vivo renal fibrosis (trichrome staining). Untreated RVD (n = 6) and normal pigs (n = 7) served as controls. RESULTS Renovascular disease induced hypertension and renal dysfunction. Blood pressure and renal perfusion were unchanged post-PTRA, but GFR and RBF increased. Baseline cortical STK-MTR predicted post-PTRA renal perfusion and RBF, and MTR changes associated inversely with changes in perfusion and normalized GFR. Stenotic kidney MTR at 600 Hz showed closer association with renal parameters, but both frequencies predicted post-PTRA cortical fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS Renal STK-MTR, particularly at 600 Hz offset, is sensitive to hemodynamic changes after PTRA in swine RVD and capable of noninvasively predicting post-PTRA kidney perfusion, RBF, and fibrosis. Therefore, STK-MTR may be a valuable tool to predict renal hemodynamic and functional recovery, as well as residual kidney fibrosis after revascularization in RVD.

Abstract
Renovascular hypertension (RVH) has deleterious effects on both the kidney and the heart. TGF-β signaling through Smad3 directs tissue fibrosis in chronic injury models. In the 2-kidney 1-clip (2K1C) model of RVH, employing mice on the 129 genetic background, Smad3 deficiency (KO) protects the stenotic kidney (STK) from development of interstitial fibrosis. However, these mice have an increased incidence of sudden cardiac death following 2K1C surgery. The purpose of this study was to characterize the cardiovascular phenotype of these mice. Renal artery stenosis (RAS) was established in Wild-type (WT) and Smad3 KO mice (129 genetic background) by placement of a polytetrafluoroethylene cuff on the right renal artery. Mortality was 25.5% for KO mice with RAS, 4.1% for KO sham mice, 1.2% for WT with RAS, and 1.8% for WT sham mice. Myocardial tissue of mice studied at 3 days following surgery showed extensive myocyte necrosis in KO but not WT mice. Myocyte necrosis was associated with a rapid induction of Ccl2 expression, macrophage influx, and increased MMP-9 activity. At later time points, both KO and WT mice developed myocardial fibrosis. No aortic aneurysms or dissections were observed at any time point. Smad3 KO mice were backcrossed to the C57BL/6J strain and subjected to RAS. Sudden death was observed at 10-14 days following surgery in 62.5% of mice; necropsy revealed aortic dissections as the cause of death. As observed in the 129 mice, the STK of Smad3 KO mice on the C57BL/6J background did not develop significant chronic renal damage. We conclude that the cardiovascular manifestations of Smad3 deficient mice are strain-specific, with myocyte necrosis in 129 mice and aortic rupture in C57BL/6J mice. Future studies will define mechanisms underlying this strain-specific effect on the cardiovascular system.

Atherosclerotic renovascular disease - epidemiology, treatment and current challenges. ADVANCES IN INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY 2017; 13:191-201.

Abstract
The neutral results of recent large randomized controlled trials comparing renal revascularization with optimal medical therapy in patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD) have cast doubt on the role of revascularization in the management of unselected patients with this condition. However, these studies have strengthened the evidence base for the role of contemporary intensive medical vascular protection therapy and aggressive risk factor control in improving clinical outcomes in ARVD. Patients presenting with ‘high-risk’ clinical features such as uncontrolled hypertension, rapidly declining renal function or flash pulmonary oedema are underrepresented in these studies; hence these results may not be applicable to all patients with ARVD. In this ‘high-risk’ subgroup, conservative management may not be sufficient in preventing adverse events, and indeed, observational evidence suggests that this specific patient subgroup may gain benefit from timely renal revascularization. Current challenges include the development of novel diagnostic techniques to establish haemodynamic significance of a stenosis, patient risk stratification and prediction of post-revascularization outcomes to ultimately facilitate patient selection for revascularization. In this paper we describe the epidemiology of this condition and discuss treatment recommendations for this condition in light of the results of recent randomized controlled trials while highlighting important clinical unmet needs and challenges faced by clinicians managing this condition.

Abstract
Renal artery stenosis may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of secondary hypertension, renal dysfunction, and flash pulmonary edema. Currently correction of renal arterial inflow stenosis is reserved for resistant hypertension patients who have failed maximal medical therapy, have worsening renal function and/or unexplained proximal congestive failure. With the recent advances in minimally invasive percutaneous stent placement techniques, open surgical revascularization has been largely replaced by renal artery stenting. The potential benefit of revascularization seemed intuitive; however, the initial enthusiasm and rise in the number of percutaneous interventions have been tempered by many subsequent negative randomized clinical trials that failed to prove the proposed benefits of the percutaneous intervention. The negative randomized trial results have fallen under scrutiny due to trial design concerns and inconsistent outcomes of these studies compared to pivotal trials undertaken under US Food and Drug Administration scrutiny. Treatment of atherosclerotic renal artery occlusive disease has become one of the most debatable topics in the field of vascular disease. The results from recent randomized clinical trials of renal artery stenting have basically limited the utilization of the procedure in many centers, but not every clinical scenario was covered in those trials. There are potential areas for improvement focusing mainly on procedural details and patient selection with respect to catheter based treatment of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis. We believe, limiting patient selection, enrollment criteria and outcomes measured functioned to reduce the benefit of renal artery stenosis stenting by not enrolling patients likely to benefit. Future studies incorporating potential procedural improvements and that include patients more likely to benefit from renal stenting than were included in ASTRAL and CORAL are needed to more carefully examine specific patient subgroups so that “the baby is not thrown out with the bath water.” We also discuss several other concerns related to renal artery stenting which include diagnostic, procedure, indication, and reimbursement issues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Randomized controlled trials (RCT) have shown no overall benefit of renal revascularization in atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD). However, 25% of patients demonstrate improvement in renal function. We used the ratio of magnetic resonance parenchymal volume (PV) to isotopic single kidney glomerular filtration rate (isoSKGFR) ratio as our method to prospectively identify "improvers" before revascularization. METHODS Patients with renal artery stenosis who were due revascularization were recruited alongside non-ARVD hypertensive CKD controls. Using the controls, 95% CI were calculated for expected PV:isoSK-GFR at given renal volumes. For ARVD patients, "improvers" were defined as having both >15% and >1ml/min increase in isoSK-GFR at 4 months after revascularization. Sensitivity and specificity of PV:isoSK-GFR for predicting improvers was calculated. RESULTS 30 patients (mean age 68 ±8 years), underwent revascularization, of whom 10 patients had intervention for bilateral RAS. Stented kidneys which manifested >15% improvement in function had larger PV:isoSK-GFR compared to controls (19±16 vs. 6±4ml/ml/min, p = 0.002). The sensitivity and specificity of this equation in predicting a positive renal functional outcome were 64% and 88% respectively. Use of PV:isoSK-GFR increased prediction of functional improvement (area under curve 0.93). Of note, non-RAS contralateral kidneys which improved (n = 5) also demonstrated larger PV:isoSK-GFR (15.2±16.2 ml/ml/min, p = 0.006). CONCLUSION This study offers early indicators that the ratio of PV:isoSK-GFR may help identify patients with kidneys suitable for renal revascularization which could improve patient selection for a procedure associated with risks. Calculation of the PV:isoSK-GFR ratio is easy, does not require MRI contrast agent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, renal revascularization has not been shown to be advantageous when compared to optimized medical treatment in patients with atheromatous renovascular disease (ARVD). This study aims to investigate the effect of revascularization in patients with pre-intervention worsening renal function and in those with stable renal function. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this single-centre observational study, patients who were diagnosed with at least 60% angiographic stenosis unilaterally or bilaterally between January 1996 and October 2008 and who were followed-up until February 2011 were retrospectively analysed. Evolution of renal function was determined from the slope of reciprocal of serum creatinine (RCr-slope) before and after diagnostic angiography or revascularization; this required 5 or more creatinine measurements before and at least another 5 measurements post-procedure. Patients were divided into 2 groups: one comprising patients with negative RCr-slope before the procedure and a second group of patients with prior positive RCr-slope. A stepwise, adjusted logistic regression was used to determine the OR of revascularization on attenuation of RCr-slope. RESULTS Data for 52 patients were analysed. Median age was 64 (58-72) and median follow-up was 15 (8-34) months. Only patients with a negative RCr-slope (-0.0078 (95% CI -0.0174, -0.0033) dl/mg/month) who underwent revascularization manifested an improved RCr-slope during follow-up (+0.0013 (95% CI -0.0002, 0.0039) dl/mg/month, p < 0.001). This finding remained statistically significant even after the adjustment for proteinuria and bilateral arterial disease. CONCLUSION Revascularization may be indicated for patients with ARVD and progressively worsening renal function. This patient subgroup should ideally be evaluated in future randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
The murine 2-kidney 1-clip (2K1C) model has been used to identify mechanisms underlying chronic renal disease in human renovascular hypertension. Although this model recapitulates many of the features of human renovascular disease, strain specific variability in renal outcomes and animal-to-animal variation in the degree of arterial stenosis are well recognized limitations. In particular, the C57BL/6J strain is considered to be resistant to chronic renal damage in other models. Our objectives were to determine strain dependent variations in renal disease progression and to identify parameters that predict renal atrophy in murine 2K1C hypertension. We used a 0.20mm polytetrafluoroethylene cuff to establish RAS in 3 strains of mice C57BL/6J (N=321), C57BLKS/J (N=177) and129Sv (N=156). The kidneys and hearts were harvested for histopathologic analysis after 3days or after 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 11 or 17weeks. We performed multivariate analysis to define associations between blood pressure, heart and kidney weights, ratio of stenotic kidney/contralateral kidney (STK/CLK) weight, percent atrophy (% atrophy) and plasma renin content. The STK of all 3 strains showed minimal histopathologic alterations after 3days, but later developed progressive interstitial fibrosis, tubular atrophy, and inflammation. The STK weight negatively correlated with maximum blood pressure and % atrophy, and positively correlated with STK/CLK ratio. RAS produces severe chronic renal injury in the STK of all murine strains studied, including C57BL/6J. Systolic blood pressure is negatively associated with STK weight, STK/CLK ratio and positively with atrophy and may be used to assess adequacy of vascular stenosis in this model.

Abstract
AIM Patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD) have an increased risk for death and likelihood of initiating renal replacement therapy (RRT) compared with the general population. No data exist to describe prognosis in ARVD compared with other causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We compare patient outcomes between ARVD and other causes of CKD. METHODS Patients were selected from two prospective observational cohort studies of outcome in ARVD and CKD. Multivariate Cox regression was used to compare risk for RRT and death (both prior to and following initiation of RRT) between patients with ARVD and other causes of CKD. RESULTS Of 1472 patients (563 (38%) ARVD, 909 (62%) non-ARVD), 242 (16%) progressed to RRT and 640 (44%) died over a median follow-up period of 4.1 (2.4-5.6) years. Patients with ARVD had an increased risk for death (HR 1.5 (1.2-1.8), P < 0.001) but not for RRT (HR 1.0 (0.7-1.4), P = 0.9). The largest increase in risk for death was observed relative to renal limited diseases, e.g. pyelonephritis (HR 2.4 (1.3-4.5), P = 0.004) and interstitial/infiltrative disease (HR 2.2 (1.3-4.5), P = 0.02). Following initiation of RRT, patients with ARVD had a significantly increased risk for death compared with patients without ARVD (HR 3.3 (2.2-5.0), P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Patients with ARVD as a cause of CKD have an increased risk for death both prior to and following initiation of RRT. Further work should seek to identify modifiable risk factors relevant to prognosis.

Abstract
The diagnosis of renal artery stenosis (RAS) has become increasingly common in part due to greater awareness of ischemic renal disease and increased use of diagnostic techniques. Over 90 % of RAS cases are caused by atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD). Patients with ARVD are at high risk for fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular and renal events. The mortality rate in patients with ARVD is high, especially with other cardiovascular or renal comorbidities. Recent clinical studies have provided substantial evidence concerning medical therapy and endovascular interventional therapeutic approaches for ARVD. Despite previous randomized clinical trials, the optimal therapy for ARVD remained uncertain until the results of the Cardiovascular Outcomes in Renal Atherosclerotic Lesions (CORAL) trial were released recently. CORAL demonstrated that optimal medical therapy was equally effective to endovascular therapy in the treatment of ARVD. Clinicians can now practice with more evidence-based medicine to treat ARVD and potentially decrease mortality in patients with ARVD using optimal medical therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES People with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis may benefit from renin-angiotensin inhibitors, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, and angiotensin-receptor blockers, but little is known about the factors associated with their use. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The Cardiovascular Outcomes in Renal Atherosclerotic Lesions study (ClinicalTrials.gov identified: NCT00081731) is a prospective, international, multicenter clinical trial that randomly assigned participants with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis who received optimal medical therapy to stenting versus no stenting from May 2005 through January 2010. At baseline, medication information was available from 853 of 931 randomly assigned participants. Kidney function was measured by serum creatinine-based eGFR at a core laboratory. RESULTS Before randomization, renin-angiotensin inhibitors were used in 419 (49%) of the 853 participants. Renin-angiotensin inhibitor use was lower in those with CKD (eGFR<60 ml/min per 1.73 m(2)) (58% versus 68%; P=0.004) and higher in individuals with diabetes (41% versus 27%; P<0.001). Presence of bilateral renal artery stenosis or congestive heart failure was not associated with renin-angiotensin inhibitor use. Although therapy with renin-angiotensin inhibitors varied by study site, differences in rates of use were not related to the characteristics of the site participants. Participants receiving a renin-angiotensin inhibitor had lower systolic BP (mean ± SD, 148 ± 23 versus 152 ± 23 mmHg; P=0.003) and more often had BP at goal (30% versus 22%; P=0.01). CONCLUSIONS Kidney function and diabetes were associated with renin-angiotensin inhibitor use. However, these or other clinical characteristics did not explain variability among study sites. Patients with renal artery stenosis who received renin-angiotensin inhibitor treatment had lower BP and were more likely to be at treatment goal.

Abstract
An aging atherosclerosis-prone population has led to an increase in the prevalence of atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD). Medical management of this disease, as with other atherosclerotic conditions, has improved over the past decade. Despite the widespread availability of endovascular revascularization procedures, there is inconsistent evidence of benefit in ARVD and no clear consensus of opinion as to the best way to select suitable patients for revascularization. Several published randomized controlled trials have attempted to provide clearer evidence for best practice in ARVD, but they have done so with varying clarity and success. In this review, we provide an overview of ARVD and its effect on renal function. We present the currently available evidence for best practice in the management of patients with ARVD with a particular focus on revascularization as a treatment to improve renal function. We provide a brief overview of the evidence for revascularization in other causes of renal artery stenosis.

Abstract
Exercise-induced changes in γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) or nitric oxide signaling within the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) have not been studied in renovascular hypertension. We tested whether exercise training decreases mean arterial pressure (MAP) and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) in two-kidney, one-clip (2K-1C) hypertensive rats due to enhanced nitric oxide or GABA signaling within PVN. Conscious, unrestrained male Sprague-Dawley rats with either sham (Sham) or right renal artery clipping (2K-1C) were assigned to sedentary (SED) or voluntary wheel running (ExT) for 6 or 12 wk. MAP and angiotensin II (ANG II) were elevated in 2K-1C SED rats. The 2K-1C ExT rats displayed lower MAP at 6 wk that did not decline further by 12 wk. Plasma ANG II was lower in 2K-1C ExT rats. Increases in MAP, heart rate, and RSNA to blockade of PVN nitric oxide in 2K-1C SED rats were attenuated compared with either Sham group. Exercise training restored the responses in 2K-1C ExT rats. The increase in MAP in response to bicuculline was inversely correlated with baseline MAP. The rise in MAP was lower in 2K-1C SED vs. either Sham group and was normalized in the 2K-1C ExT rats. Paradoxically, heart rate and RSNA responses were not diminished in 2K-1C SED rats but were significantly lower in the 2K-1C ExT rats. Thus the decrease in arterial pressure in 2K-1C hypertension associated with exercise training is likely due to diminished excitatory inputs to PVN because of lower ANG II and higher nitritergic tone rather than enhanced GABA inhibition of sympathetic output.

Abstract
Renovascular hypertension refers to the rise of arterial pressure due to reduced perfusion of the kidney caused by the stenotic renal artery/ies. The most common cause of stenotic renal artery is atherosclerosis. Atherosclerotic renal stenosis is usually part of a systemic syndrome that involves hypertension, intrinsic renal damage, and cardiovascular morbidity. So far, large trials have not proven the superiority of interventional therapies to medical management. As a result, renal artery stenosis should be treated mainly as a coronary artery disease equivalent focusing on rigorous management of hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. Antihypertensive treatment should include renin-angiotensin system blockade medication in most cases, while HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) can be used even in chronic kidney disease with safety. Lifestyle modifications, such as cessation of smoking, and antiplatelet therapy have reduced the risk of cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD) is a common condition in both elderly patients and those with other vascular disease. No published randomized controlled trial has demonstrated an overall benefit of revascularization on any clinical or biochemical end-point, and optimal medical therapy in this condition is not clearly defined. In this review we consider the epidemiology of ARVD and discuss the evidence for current medical treatment. We also address the literature on revascularization, consider settings in which an interventional approach may still be considered, and touch upon on-going areas of research.

Abstract
Background—
Despite routine use of estimated glomerular filtration rates (GFRs) as major renal end points in clinical trials of renal revascularization, serial GFR estimates have never been validated in patients with renal artery stenosis (RAS). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of GFR estimates in patients with atherosclerotic RAS.
Methods and Results—
Serum creatinine (SCr) and
125
I-iothalamate GFR (I-GFR) were measured in patients with RAS. GFR estimates were calculated from Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD), Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI), and Cockroft-Gault (CG) formulas. Using I-GFR as the reference standard, the sensitivity, specificity, and receiver operating characteristic area under the curve (AUC) were determined for MDRD, CKD-EPI, CG, and reciprocal SCr for identifying I-GFR <60 mL/min per 1.73 m
2
and a 20% change in I-GFR over time. Between 1998 and 2007, 541 I-GFR measurements were performed in 254 consecutive patients with RAS. MDRD, CKD-EPI, and CG GFR estimates demonstrated good sensitivity (86% to 95%), modest specificity (67% to 71%), and good reliability (AUC, 0.86 to 0.94) for identifying I-GFR <60 mL/min per 1.73 m
2
. GFR estimates had good specificity (87% to 95%), poor sensitivity (0% to 45%), and poor reliability (AUC, 0.61 to 0.65) for detecting 20% changes in I-GFR over follow-up.
Conclusions—
In patients with RAS, GFR estimates demonstrate good sensitivity and modest specificity for identifying I-GFR <60 mL/min per 1.73 m
2
but poor sensitivity and reliability for detecting 20% changes in I-GFR. GFR estimates should not be used in clinical trials as major end points to assess serial GFR after renal revascularization.

Abstract
The detrimental link between cardiac and renal pathophysiology in atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD) is well described. Patients with ARVD usually have significant atherosclerotic disease in other vascular beds including the coronary circulation, and structural and functional cardiac changes are highly prevalent. This excess cardiovascular burden probably contributes to the increased cardiac morbidity and mortality seen in these patients. In this review we describe the associations of cardiovascular disease and ARVD and treatment thereof. The clinical debate of which patients are offered any additional advantage by revascularisation over medications alone remains to be answered. The close link between cardiac and renal pathophysiology in ARVD raises the possibility that renal revascularisation might confer a benefit to cardiac morphology and function. This is the subject of ongoing randomised controlled trials.
