https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nd-630.html In a population of almost 2 million hypertensive patients (ACE inhibitors 566 023; ARB 958 227; CCB 358 306) followed for 16 weeks, 2338 were hospitalized and 526 died or were intubated for COVID-19. ACE inhibitors and ARBs were associated with a lower risk of COVID-19 hospitalization compared with CCBs (hazard ratio, 0.74 [95% CI, 0.65-0.83] and 0.84 [0.76-0.93], respectively) and a lower risk of intubation/death. Risks were slightly lower for ACE inhibitor users than for ARB users. This large observational study may suggest a lower COVID-19 risk in hypertensive patients treated over a long period with ACE inhibitors or ARBs compared with CCBs. These results, if confirmed, tend to contradict previous hypotheses and raise new hypotheses.[Figure see text].This study aimed to evaluate the reproducibility of office (OBP), ambulatory (ABP), and home blood pressure (HBP) measurements in children and adolescents, and their implications in diagnosing hypertension in clinical practice and in pediatric hypertension research. Apparently healthy children and adolescents referred for suspected hypertension were included. Measurements of 2-visit OBP, 7-day HBP, and 24-hour ABP were performed twice, 1 to 6 months apart. Reproducibility was quantified using the SD of differences between repeated measurements. The sample size of clinical trials comparing the efficacy of antihypertensive drugs using each method was calculated. Fifty-eight individuals were analyzed (mean age, 13.0±2.9 years, 60.3% boys). The reproducibility of 24-hour ABP (SD of differences 5.7/4.5 systolic/diastolic) and HBP (5.9/5.0 mm Hg) were comparable and superior to that of visit-2 OBP (9.2/7.8) and awake (6.7/5.5) or asleep ABP (7.6/6.1). As a consequence, a parallel-group comparative trial aiming to detect a difference in the effect of 2 drugs of 10 mm Hg systolic BP, would require 36 participants when using OBP measurements, 14 using 24-hour ABP, and 15 using
