Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors reduce mortality in hypertension: a meta-analysis
renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitors involving 158 998 patients
Background and aim
-Renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors are well established for the reduction in cardiovascular morbidity, but their impact on all-cause mortality in hypertensive patients is uncertain. -Objective of this study was to analyze the effects
as of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and AT1 receptor blockers (ARBs) separately, on all-cause mortality.
Laura C. van Vark et al.:European Heart Journal 2012
Randomized controlled trials, published between 1st January, 2000 1st March, 2011, are included in meta-analysis (n=20).
Laura C. van Vark et al.:European Heart Journal 2012
All-cause mortality and Cardiovascular mortality
In all 20 trials grouped together, all-cause mortality was reduced significantly by 5% by the treatment with an RAAS inhibition. In addition, the cardiovascular mortality was significantly reduced by 7%.
Laura C. van Vark et al.:European Heart Journal 2012
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors vs. AT1 receptor blockers
The all-cause mortality reduction in the overall group of RAAS inhibitors in the previous slide was completely driven by the beneficial effect of the ACE inhibitors.

Mechanism from Subclinical Aspiration to Pneumonia
Subclinical aspiration develops when a small amount of sputum, including bacteria, enters the trachea while patients do not notice it, such as while sleeping. Sputum and bacteria gradually enter the lung through the trachea. When sputum reaches the lung, inflammation occurs gradually. In general, subclinical aspiration is thought to start to develop at the lower lung (inferior lobe). If inflammation is not detected, it may spread throughout the lung.
