    Title translation One-year persistence of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors fixed drug combinations in hypertensive patients.
    Abstract Introduction: Various fixed combinations of antihypertensive agents are highlighted in European and Hungarian hypertension guidelines. A renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system antagonist (RAAS inhibitor) in combination with calcium channel blockers (CCBs) or diuretics are recommended as the first step in antihypertensive therapy.
    Objectives: The aim of the authors was to compare the one-year persistence of RAAS inhibitor fixed-dose combinations (FDCs) in hypertension.
    Method: The authors have analyzed the prescription database of the National Health Insurance Fund and selected patients who first filled prescriptions for any RAAS inhibitor FDC between October 1, 2012, and September 30, 2013, and who did not redeem prescriptions for similar preparations in the year preceding the selection period. Apparatus of survival analysis was used, where "survival" was the time to abandon the medication.
    Results: A total of 443 149 patients met the selection criteria. The one-year persistence of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor)/CCB FDCs was 44.59%, while that of angiotensin II receptor inhibitor (ARB)/thiazide diuretic (HCT) FDCs was 42.52%. This was followed by ACE inhibitor/indapamide FDCs at 37.27%, ARB/CCB FDCs at 29.04%, and ACE inhibitors/HCT FDCs at 27.47%. Compared to ACE inhibitor/indapamide FDCs (reference), the risk of discontinuing ACE inhibitor/CCBs was 31 percentage points lower (HR = 0.69, 95% CI 0.6855-0.6996, p<0.0001), and the risk of discontinuing ARB/HCT FDCs was 18 percentage points lower (HR = 0.82, 95% CI 0.8096-0.8267, p<0.0001). However, the risk of discontinuing ACE inhibitor/HCT FDCs was 17 percentage points higher (HR = 1.17, 95% CI 1.1562-1.1825, p<0.0001), and the risk of discontinuing ARB/CCB FDCs was 20 percentage points higher (HR = 1.20, 95% CI 1.17316-1.2239, p<0.0001). The average medication adherence time limited to 360 days was 239.9 days for ACE inhibitor/CCB FDCs, 214.8 days for ARB/HCT FDCs, 193.8 days for ACE inhibitor/indapamide FDCs, 178.8 days for ARB/CCB FDCs, and 177.6 days for ACE inhibitor/HCT FDCs.
    Conclusions: The authors have demonstrated that the one-year persistence of RAAS inhibitor FDCs varies significantly in hypertensive patients. ACE inhibitor/CCB FDCs were found to be the most advantageous. Orv Hetil. 2023; 164(34): 1337-1341.

    Title translation Infrequent systemic drug interaction: repeated syncope caused by combined treatment with timolol-containing eye drops and lercanidipine tablet.
    Abstract The control and planning of the treatment of hypertensive patients need specific attention. As regards concomitant diseases and treatments, glaucoma and the use of eye drops should be taken into consideration. The ingredients of the administered eye drops get through the nasolacrimal canal and can be absorbed by the nasal mucosa. Because of the lack of enterohepatic 'first pass' effect, they can act systemically - like after intravenous administration. This way they can cause systemic side effects. The authors present a case of a patient, too, who was examined and medically checked regularly for years with negative results because of repeated syncope. It became clear only at the Hypertension Centre that the timolol-containing combined eye drops caused the symptoms. The authors draw attention to the fact that in the case of systemic side effects which can be connected to beta-blocking agents (blood pressure fall, bradycardia, breathing disturbance, depression), the role of the eye drops should be taken into consideration. At the same time, the possibility of the systemic drug interactions should not be forgotten either. The interaction with dihydropyridine-type calcium-channel blockers can be of great importance. In these cases, after consultation with an ophthalmologist, the glaucoma treatment with eye drops containing beta-blockers should be modified. Orv Hetil. 2019; 160(8): 309-313.

    Title translation The spontaneous recanalization of the internal carotid artery. Case report.
    Abstract The occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA) frequently leads to stroke and develops most commonly as a consequence of embolism or atherosclerotic thrombosis. Following acute care, if the patient's general condition makes it possible, the patient is usually emitted from the hospital or, if necessary, his treatment continues in the rehabilitation department. The occlusion is generally considered irreversible, but a regular duplex ultrasonographic (sometimes CT angiographic) check of the patient is required. According to recent literature, spontaneous recanalization of the ICA may occur occasionally. The authors demonstrated by evaluating a local case that ICA occlusion is not necessarily permanent: through a case of a 67-year-old man, who suffered a right ICA occlusion, subsequent ichaemic stroke, then spontaneous recanalization of the occlusion allowing a successful endarterectomy later on, they overview the literature and propose appropriate prospective examinations to track patents with similar conditions.

    Title translation One-year persistence of patients already treated with oral anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation.
    Abstract Introduction: In the treatment of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) with oral anticoagulants (OAC), medical adherence is a relevant factor for stroke prevention.
    Aim: To evaluate the one-year persistence of vitamin K antagonists (VKA) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) in patients suffering from AF and already treated with OACs.
    Method: Information from the National Health Insurance Fund of Hungary prescriptions database on pharmacy claims between June 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015 was analysed. Authors identified patients who filled prescriptions for OACs (VKAs or DOACs) prescribed for AF who have already received OACs therapy during one year before. Apparatus of survival analysis was used, where 'survival' was the time to abandon the medication.
    Results: 196 016 patients met the inclusion criteria. 181 810 patients received VKA and 14 206 patients were treated with DOACs. The one-year persistence rate in patients taking VKA was 52.9% whereas it was 66.8% in those on the DOACs. The persistence rates after 360 days were 67.5% for rivaroxaban, 63.6% for apixaban and 63.4% for dabigatran. The mean duration of persistence was 311 days for rivaroxaban, 308 days for apixaban and 284 days for dabigatran. The actual rate of discontinuation was 14% (HR = 1.14 [95% CI 1.05-1.24]), p = 0.0015) for apixaban, 15% (HR = 1.15 [95% CI 1.08-1.23], p = 0.003) for dabigatran and 62% (HR = 1.62 [95% CI 1.56-1.69], p<0.0001) for VKA compared to rivaroxaban (reference).
    Conclusions: The authors have confirmed that the one-year persistence of DOAKs was significantly higher compared to KVA therapy in AF. The one-year persistence of rivaroxaban was more favoured than apixaban and dabigatran. Orv Hetil. 2019; 160(13): 509-515.

    Title translation One year persistence of free and fixed dose combinations of perindopril/amlodipine.
    Abstract Introduction: In management of hypertension patient adherence is one of the most important factors. In hypertension the cardiovascular risk reduction can be reached only by prolonged and effective pharmacotherapy.
    Aim: To evaluate the persistence of one-year treatment of free and fixed-dose combination of perindopril/amlodipine in hypertension.
    Method: Information from the National Health Insurance of Hungary prescriptions database on pharmacy claims between October 1, 2012 and September 30, 2013 was analysed. Authors identified patients who filled prescriptions for free and fixed-dose combination of perindopril/amlodipine, prescribed for the first time for hypertension. Patients have not received antihypertensive therapy with similar active substances during the one year before. Apparatus of survival analysis was used, where "survival" was the time to abandon the medication. As it was available to month precision, discrete time survival analysis was applied.
    Results: 109,248 patients met the inclusion criteria. Combination antihypertensive therapy with perindopril/amlodipine was started with a free or a fixed-dose combination of these agents in 19,365 and 89,883 patients, respectively. One year persistence rate in patients taking perindopril/amlodipine as a free combination was 27.15%, whereas it was 46.89% in those on the fixed-dose combination. Mean duration of persistence was 177.6 days in patients on the perindopril/amlodipine free, whereas 245.7 days on fixed-dose combination. Actual rate of discontinuation was approximately twice higher with the treatment of free, compared with the use of the fixed-dose combination (hazard ratio =1.94 [95% CI: 1.91-1.98], p<0.001).

    Title translation One-year persistence of fixed-dose combinations of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor and calcium channel blocker in hypertensive patients.
    Abstract Introduction: The most recent European guidelines for the treatment of hypertension suggest the use of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system antagonists (RAAS inhibitors) and calcium channel blockers (CCBs) or diuretics fixed-dose combinations (FDCs) as the first therapeutic option. In antihypertensive therapy, the patient's adherence is one of the most important factors in reducing unwanted cardiovascular events.
    Aim: Our aim was to assess the one-year persistence of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and CCB FDCs in hypertensive patients.
    Method: Authors have analysed the prescription database of the National Health Insurance Fund in Hungary on pharmacy claims between October 1, 2012 and September 30, 2013. Those patients were identified who filled prescriptions for FDCs of ACEI and CCBs prescribed for the first time for hypertensive patients and who had not received similar drugs during the year before. Apparatus of survival analysis was used, where 'survival' was the time to abandon the medication.
    Results: 124 388 patients met the inclusion criteria. One-year persistence rate and hazard ratio (HR) of discontinuation in patients with ramipril/amlodipine FDC was 54% (HR = 1.00, reference), perindopril/amlodipine 47% (HR = 1.30, p<0.0001), lisinopril/amlodipine 36% (HR = 1.79, p<0.0001), ramipril/felodipine 26% (HR = 2.28, p<0.0001) and trandolapril/verapamil 12% (HR = 4.13, p<0.0001). The average survival time of drug limited to 360 days was 270.2 days for ramipril/amlodipine FDC, 242.7 days for perindopril/amlodipine FDC, 211.2 days for lisinopril/amlodipine FDC, 186.3 days for ramipril/felodipine FDC and 125.7 days for trandolapril/verapamil FDC.
    Conclusions: The authors demonstrated that the one-year persistence of ACEI/CCB FDCs was significantly different in hypertensive patients. Ramipril/amlodipine FDC was more advantageous for patient adherence. Orv Hetil. 2019; 160(9): 343-348.

    Abstract Objective: To study the effects of the centrally acting imidazoline-like compound rilmenidine on the circadian and short-term cardiovascular rhythms derived from continuous blood pressure (BP) recordings in patients with mild essential hypertension.
    Methods: This was a single-center, open study. Recordings were obtained from eight subjects, using a Portapres during two 24-h hospitalizations: the first after the inclusion visit and the second 4 weeks after starting rilmenidine treatment (1 or 2 mg/day). For circadian analysis of cardiovascular variables, 10 min were selected every hour to obtain 24 periods per subject for each session. Spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) was estimated using the sequence technique and the cross-spectral analysis between systolic BP and interbeat intervals.
    Results: Rilmenidine significantly reduced the overall systolic and diastolic BP and heart rate (P < 0.001). The effects of rilmenidine on BP and heart rhythm were marked during the daytime. Rilmenidine reduced the low-frequency (LF) component of systolic BP variability throughout the 24 h. The highest values of spontaneous BRS were observed at night. Rilmenidine increased the BRS obtained by the slope of the sequence method throughout the 24-h period (P < 0.001). The LF gain was significantly increased with rilmenidine during the day and the night.
    Conclusions: Rilmenidine may differentially affect the baroreflex-dependent (phasic or reflex) and the baroreflex-independent (tonic) autonomic outflow. The 24-h approach reinforced this concept, since indexes of BRS were increased throughout the 24-h period while BP was reduced during the daytime.
