Investigate the value of percutaneous radiofrequency heat lesion applied to the ramus communicans; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-operated group. In addition…
To compare the blood pressure lowering effect of thiazides against calcium channel blockers in CNI-induced hypertension.
Investigate the value of percutaneous radiofrequency heat lesion, applied to the medial branch of the primary dorsal ramus; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-…
investigate the value of percutaneous pulsed radiofrequency, applied to the lumbar and sacral dorsal root ganglion; more specifically try to determine if a significant and long lasting pain reduction can be obtained as compared to a sham-operated…
Main objective: * To evaluate the effect and variation of 3 and 12 months treatment with Aliskeren-based versus amlodipine-based antihypertensive treatment on aneurismal FDG- uptakeExploratory objectives: * To explore the effect of 3 and 12 months…
Primary1. To determine whether treatment with an aliskiren-based regimen (in part combined with amlodipine or hydrochlorothiazide) compared to a non-aliskiren based regimen, both on top of non-study BP lowering agents where applicable, reduces the…
Primary objective:To assess and compare the effects of aliskiren/amlodipine and amlodipine on pedal edema after 4 weeks of treatment as measured by ankle foot volume (AFV) (water displacement method) in patients with mild to moderate hypertension.…
To compare the blood pressure lowering effect of thiazides against calcium channel blockers in CNI-induced hypertension.
To examine the impact of medication induced systolic BP (SBP) reductions >=10 mmHg, while reaching a treatment target of <=140 mmHg, on cerebral blood flow (CBF) in frail elderly with untreated or uncontrolled systolic hypertension at…
Primary objective:To test the hypothesis that the calcium channel blocker amlodipine has a superior beneficial effect on cerebrovascular reactivity in patients with symptomatic SVDs when compared to either the Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor…
