However, at present only 14% of patients of developing countries have their blood pressure (BP) well controlled. The causes for the failure to control the BP are multiple and one of them could be the formulation of antihypertensive drugs.Areas covered: The recent development of nanotechnology by incorporating the drugs into nanoparticles is a new promising field of nanomedicine and preliminary studies have shown this nanoformulation to be more effective in the treatment of hypertension than the existing drug formulations. Another recent development is the nanoformulation of genes used for the treatment of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. For current information, a Medline search was conducted between 2017 and 2024 and 36 pertinent papers were selected.Expert opinion: The nanoformulations of drugs help achieve better drug concentrations, improve drug stability, low solubility, short half life, oral bioavailability, narrow therapeutic index, and poor pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles, and decrease the adverse effects of antihypertensive drugs. Also, the nanoformulation of genes for the treatment of hypertension has been shown in preliminary studies to be effective, but more research is needed.","PeriodicalId":12098,"journal":{"name":"Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142779555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Causes of primary MR include degenerative disease, rheumatic heart disease, and infective endocarditis. Secondary MR is observed in the setting of left ventricle (LV) pathology, including ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy. In secondary MR, annular dilation, papillary muscle displacement, tethering of chordae tendineae and/or mitral valve (MV) leaflets result in leaflet restriction and malcoaptation.Expert opinion: In this review, we discuss various modalities for the treatment of mitral regurgitation, as well as newer treatment options for MR including robotic MV repair and other minimally invasive procedures.

However, many challenges remain, including the ideal blood pressure (BP) target to be achieved. Because the elderly population is particularly vulnerable to adverse events, BP control should be carefully managed. Some studies have evaluated the cardiovascular effects of different BP targets in older patients, with mixed results and uncertainty about the most appropriate BP target. However, pooled analyses suggest that intensive BP lowering provides greater cardiovascular protection than less intensive strategies in elderly hypertensive patients.Areas covered: Understanding the balance between the risks and benefits of intensive BP targets and individualizing treatment is essential to ensure that older patients receive appropriate treatment to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications. We reviewed data from clinical trials which investigated the protective effects of BP lowering drugs in elderly hypertensive patients aged ≥65 years.Expert opinion: Evidence suggests that age does not preclude an aggressive strategy for treating hypertension in elderly patients. Being 'tolerant' with one hand and 'intensive' with the other should become a universal standard in the management of elderly hypertensive patients. The lowest well-tolerated BP could be a simple and universally applicable BP target in the management of hypertensive patients, including the elderly.","PeriodicalId":12098,"journal":{"name":"Expert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"615-624"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142603799","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is expected that the prevalence of elderly patients with multimorbidity will increase significantly. It is therefore crucial to outline implications for clinical practice and guide comprehensive multimorbidity management.Areas covered: This perspective article outlines multimorbidity in AF and the importance of comprehensive comorbidity management. It addresses current clinical practice guided by international guidelines and the need for integrated care including a patient-centered focus, comprehensive AF management, coordinated multidisciplinary care, and supporting technology. Moreover, it proposes a novel model of care delivery following a systematic approach to multimorbidity management.Expert opinion: Providing comprehensive care by means of a multidisciplinary team and patient engagement is crucial to provide optimal personalized care for elderly patients with AF and multimorbidity.

The review focuses on presenting the efficacy and safety profile of eprosartan, alone or in combination with other agents. Additionally, it explores the etiology of hypertension concerning the structure and function of angiotensin II type 1 receptors. Further, the efficacy of eprosartan in special populations and its additional benefits are also discussed.Expert opinion: Eprosartan effectively reduces blood pressure (BP), with a 24-hour BP-lowering effect at 600 mg/day. Eprosartan demonstrates similar or better efficacy than other ARBs, such as telmisartan and losartan, particularly in managing coagulation-related abnormalities and peripheral resistance. In combination therapy, eprosartan with hydrochlorothiazide significantly enhances BP reduction.
