    KCNJ5 Somatic Mutation Is a Predictor of Hypertension Remission After Adrenalectomy for Unilateral Primary Aldosteronism
    (2019) VILELA, Leticia A. P.; RASSI-CRUZ, Marcela; GUIMARAES, Augusto G.; MOISES, Caio C. S.; FREITAS, Thais C.; ALENCAR, Natalia P.; PETENUCI, Janaina; GOLDBAUM, Tatiana S.; MACIEL, Ana Alice W.; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide A.; V, Giovanio Silva; PIO-ABREU, Andrea; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia N.; CAVALCANTE, Aline C.

    Context: Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common cause of endocrine hypertension (HT). HT remission (defined as blood pressure <140/90 mm Hg without antihypertensive drugs) has been reported in approximately 50% of patients with unilateral PA after adrenalectomy. HT duration and severity are predictors of blood pressure response, but the prognostic role of somatic KCNJ5 mutations is unclear. Objective: To determine clinical and molecular features associated with HT remission after adrenalectomy in patients with unilateral PA. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated 100 patients with PA (60 women; median age at diagnosis 48 years with a median follow-up of 26 months). Anatomopathological analysis revealed 90 aldosterone-producing adenomas, 1 carcinoma, and 9 unilateral adrenal hyperplasias. All patients had biochemical cure after unilateral adrenalectomy. KCNJ5 gene was sequenced in 76 cases. Results: KCNJ5 mutations were identified in 33 of 76 (43.4%) tumors: p.Gly151Arg (n = 17), p.Leu168Arg (n = 15), and p.GIu145GIn (n = 1). HT remission was reported in 37 of 100 (37%) patients. Among patients with HT remission, 73% were women (P = 0.04), 48.6% used more than three antihypertensive medications (P= 0.0001), and 64.9% had HT duration <10 years (P= 0.0015) compared with those without HT remission. Somatic KCNJ5 mutations were associated with female sex (P = 0.004), larger nodules (P = 0.001), and HT remission (P = 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, only a somatic KCNJ5 mutation was an independent predictor of HT remission after adrenalectomy (P = 0.004). Conclusion: The presence of a KCNJ5 somatic mutation is an independent predictor of HT remission after unilateral adrenalectomy in patients with unilateral PA.

    Obstructive sleep apnea and hypertension-mediated organ damage in nonresistant and resistant hypertension
    (2023) CABRINI, Mayara L.; MACEDO, Thiago A.; CASTRO, Emerson; BARROS, Silvana de; AZAM, Indira; PIO-ABREU, Andrea; SILVA, Giovanio V.; LORENZI-FILHO, Geraldo; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; DRAGER, Luciano F.
    The potential role of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in hypertension-mediated organ damage (HMOD) may be influenced by the presence of resistant hypertension (RH). Herein, we enrolled patients with hypertension from a tertiary center for clinical evaluation and performed a sleep study to identify OSA (apnea-hypopnea index >= 15 events/h) and a blinded analysis of four standard HMOD parameters (left ventricular hypertrophy [LVH], increased arterial stiffness [>= 10 m/s], presence of retinopathy, and nephropathy). RH was diagnosed based on uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) (>= 140/90 mmHg) despite concurrent use of at least three antihypertensive drug classes or controlled BP with concurrent use of >= 4 antihypertensive drug classes at optimal doses. To avoid the white-coat effect, ambulatory BP monitoring was performed to confirm RH diagnosis. One-hundred patients were included in the analysis (mean age: 54 +/- 8 years, 65% females, body mass index: 30.4 +/- 4.5 kg/m(2)). OSA was detected in 52% of patients. Among patients with non-RH (n = 53), the presence of OSA (52.8%) was not associated with an increased frequency of HMOD. Conversely, among patients with RH, OSA (51.1%) was associated with a higher incidence of LVH (RH-OSA,61%; RH + OSA,87%; p = 0.049). Logistic regression analysis using the total sample revealed that RH (OR:7.89; 95% CI:2.18-28.52; p = 0.002), systolic BP (OR:1.04; 95% CI:1.00-1.07; p = 0.042) and OSA (OR:4.31; 95% CI:1.14-16.34; p = 0.032) were independently associated with LVH. No significant association was observed between OSA and arterial stiffness, retinopathy, or nephropathy. In conclusion, OSA is independently associated with LVH in RH, suggesting a potential role of OSA in RH prognosis.

    Obstructive sleep apnea and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: current evidence and research gaps
    (2021) PIO-ABREU, Andrea; MORENO JR., Heitor; DRAGER, Luciano F.
    Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common condition characterized by intermittent collapse of the upper airway during sleep, resulting in partial (hypopnoeas) and total obstructions (apneas). These respiratory events observed in OSA may trigger multiple pathways involved in the blood pressure (BP) instability during the night and potentially influencing daytime BP as well (carry-over effects). This review provides an update about the impact of OSA and its treatments on 24-h BP control. Overall, there is growing evidence suggest that OSA is associated with higher frequency of nondipping BP pattern and nocturnal hypertension in a dose-dependent manner. The presence of nondiping BP (especially the reverse pattern) is independently associated with OSA regardless of sleep-related symptoms suggesting a potential tool for screening OSA in patients with clinical indication for performing ABPM. Beyond dipping BP, preliminary evidence associated OSA with white-coat effect and higher frequency of masked hypertension and BP variability than the control group (no OSA). Unfortunately, most of the evidence on the evidence addressing the impact of OSA treatment on BP was limited to office measurements. In the last years, data from observational and randomized studies pointed that CPAP is able to promote 24-h BP decrease especially in patients with resistant and refractory hypertension. A randomized trial suggests that CPAP is able to decrease the rate of masked hypertension as compared to no treatment in patients with severe OSA. Interestingly, nondipping BP is a good predictor of BP response to CPAP making ABPM an interesting tool for better OSA management.

    Resistant Hypertension: Time to Consider the Best Fifth Anti-Hypertensive Treatment
    (2018) PIO-ABREU, Andrea; DRAGER, Luciano F.
    Resistant hypertension (RH) is a growing clinical condition worldwide associated with target-organ damage and poor prognosis compared to non-resistant counterparts. The purpose of this review is to perform a critical evaluation of preferable drug choices for managing RH highlighting the evidence that significant proportion of patients remained uncontrolled despite using four anti-hypertensive drugs. Until recently, the fourth drug therapy was main derived from personal opinion or small interventional studies. The recent data derived from two multicentric randomized trials, namely PATHWAY-2 and ReHOT, pointed spironolactone as the preferable fourth drug therapy in patients with confirmed RH as compared to bisoprolol and doxazosin (PATHWAY-2) as well as clonidine (ReHOT). However, significant proportion of patients (especially observed in ReHOT trial that used 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring) did not achieve optimal blood pressure with the fourth drug. This finding underscores the need of new approaches and treatment options in this important research area. The current evidence pointed that significant proportion of RH patients are requiring more than four drugs for controlling BP. This statement is particularly true considering the new criteria proposed by the 2017 Guidelines for diagnosing RH (> 130 x 80 mmHg). New combinations, drugs, or treatments should be tested aiming to reduce the RH burden. Based on the aforementioned multicentric trials, we proposed the first five preferable anti-hypertensive classes in the overall context of RH.

    The effect of continuous positive airway pressure on blood pressure in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and uncontrolled hypertension- Study design and challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic
    (2021) CRUZ, Fernanda C. S. G.; DRAGER, Luciano F.; QUEIROZ, Daniel B. C.; SOUZA, Gabriela A.; PEDROSA, Rodrigo P.; PATRIOTA, Tarcya L. G. Couto; DOREA, Egidio L.; VIEIRA, Marcelo Luiz C.; RIGHI, Camila G.; MARTINEZ, Denis; SILVA, Geruza A. da; V, Giovanio Silva; PIO-ABREU, Andrea; LOTUFO, Paulo A.; BENSEAOR, Isabela M.; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; FUCHS, Flavio D.; LORENZI-FILHO, Geraldo
    OBJECTIVES: To describe the MORPHEOS (Morbidity in patients with uncontrolled HTN and OSA) trial, and describe the challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: MORPHEOS is a multicenter (n=6) randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the blood pressure (BP) lowering effects of treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or placebo (nasal strips) for 6 months in adult patients with uncontrolled hypertension (HTN) and moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Patients using at least one antihypertensive medication were included. Uncontrolled HTN was confirmed by at least one abnormal parameter in the 24-hour ABPM and >= 80% medication adherence evaluated by pill counting after the run-in period. OSA was defined by an apnea-hypopnea index >= 15 events/ hours. The co-primary endpoints are brachial BP (office and ambulatory BP monitoring, ABPM) and central BP. Secondary outcomes include hypertension-mediated organ damage (HMOD) to heart, aorta, eye, and kidney. We pre-specified several sub-studies from this investigation. Visits occur once a week in the first month and once a month thereafter. The programmed sample size was 176 patients but the pandemic prevented this final target. A post-hoc power analysis will be calculated from the final sample. RESULTS: The first 100 patients are predominantly males (n=69), age: 52 +/- 10 years, body mass index: 32.7 +/- 3.9 kg/m(2) with frequent co-morbidities. CONCLUSIONS: The MORPHEOS trial has a unique study design inclu ding a run-in period; pill counting, and detailed analysis of hypertension-mediated organ damage in patients with uncontrolled HTN that will allow clarification of the impact of OSA treatment with CPAP.

    Directly observed therapy for resistant/refractory hypertension diagnosis and blood pressure control
    (2022) PIO-ABREU, Andrea; TRANI-FERREIRA, Fernanda; SILVA, Giovanio V.; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; DRAGER, Luciano F.
    Objective To test the impact of directly observed therapy (DOT) at hospital for checking not only adherence/diagnosis in patients with resistant (RHTN) and refractory (RefHTN) hypertension but also blood pressure (BP) control after hospital discharge. Methods During 2 years, Brazilian patients with clinical suspicion of RHTN/RefHTN after several attempts (>= 3) to control BP in the outpatient setting were invited to perform DOT (including low-sodium diet and supervised medications intake) at the hospital. RHTN and RefHTN were categorised using standard definitions. After hospital discharge, we evaluated the BP values and the number of antihypertensive drugs prescribed by physicians who were not involved with the investigation. Results We studied 83 patients clinically suspected for RHTN (31%) and RefHTN (69%) (mean age: 53 years; 76% female; systolic BP 177 +/- 28 mm Hg and diastolic BP 106 +/- 21 mm Hg; number of antihypertensive drugs: 5.3 +/- 1.3). DOT confirmed RHTN in 77%, whereas RefHTN was confirmed in only 32.5%. The number of antihypertensive drugs reduced to 4.5 +/- 1.3 and systolic/ diastolic BP at hospital discharge reduced to 131 +/- 17 mm Hg/80 +/- 12 mm Hg. After hospital discharge, systolic BP remained significantly lower than the last outpatient visit prehospital admission (delta changes (95% CI): 1 month: -25.7 (-33.8 to -17.6) mm Hg; 7 months: -27.3 (-35.5 to -19.1) mm Hg) despite fewer number of antihypertensive classes (1 month: -1.01 (-1.36 to -0.67); 7 months: -0.77 (-1.11 to -0.42)). Similar reductions were observed for diastolic BP. Conclusions DOT at hospital is helpful not only in confirming/excluding RHTN/RefHTN phenotypes, but also in improving BP values and BP control and in reducing the need for antihypertensive drugs after hospital discharge.

    Post-dynamic, isometric and combined resistance exercise responses in medicated hypertensive men
    (2024) OLIVEIRA-SILVA, Laura; FECCHIO, Rafael Yokoyama; SILVA JUNIOR, Natan Daniel da; PIO-ABREU, Andrea; SILVA, Giovanio Vieira da; DRAGER, Luciano Ferreira; SOUSA, Julio Cesar Silva de; FORJAZ, Claudia Lucia de Moraes
    This study investigated the effects of dynamic resistance exercise (DRE), isometric handgrip exercise (IHE) and combined resistance exercise (DRE+IHE) on post-exercise hypotension (PEH) and its hemodynamic, autonomic, and vascular mechanisms. For that, 70 medicated hypertensives men (52 +/- 8 years) were randomly allocated to perform one of the following interventions: DRE (3 sets, 8 exercises, 50% of 1RM), IHE (4 sets, 2 min, 30% of MVC), CRE (DRE+IHE) and control (CON, seated rest). Before and after the interventions, blood pressure (BP), systemic hemodynamics, cardiovascular autonomic modulation and brachial vascular parameters were evaluated. After the DRE and CRE, systolic and mean BP decreased (SBP = -7 +/- 6 and -8 +/- 8 mmHg; MBP -4 +/- 5 and -5 +/- 5 mmHg, respectively, all P < 0.05), vascular conductance increased (+ 0.47 +/- 0.61 and +0.40 +/- 0.47 ml.min(-1).mmHg(-1), respectively, both P < 0.05) and baroreflex sensitivity decreased (-0.15 +/- 0.38 and -0.29 +/- 0.47 ms/mmHg, respectively, both P < 0.05) in comparison to pre-exercise values. No variable presented any significant change after IHE. The responses observed after CRE were similar to DRE and significantly different from CON and IHE. In conclusion, DRE, but not IHE, elicits PEH, which happens concomitantly to skeletal muscle vasodilation and decreased baroreflex sensitivity. Moreover, adding IHE to DRE does not potentiate PEH and neither changes its mechanisms.
