Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 22-Apr-1996
Calcium channel blockers may increase the blood flow to the fetus or may improve fetal-placental cellular energy generation. This could enhance fetal growth. - Calcium channel blockers for preventing acute tubular necrosis in kidney transplant recipients
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 17-Oct-2007
The incidence of delayed graft function in cadaveric grafts has increased over the last few years due in part to the large demand for cadaveric kidneys necessitating the use of kidneys from marginal donors. Calcium channel blockers have the potential to r - Calcium channel blockers for preventing cardiomyopathy due to iron overload in people with transfusion‐dependent beta thalassaemia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Jul-2018
Beta thalassaemia is a common inherited blood disorder. The need for frequent blood transfusions in this condition poses a difficult problem to healthcare systems. The most common cause of morbidity and mortality is cardiac dysfunction from iron overload. - Calcium channel blockers for primary and secondary Raynaud's phenomenon
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Dec-2017
Raynaud's phenomenon is a vasospastic disease characterized by digital pallor, cyanosis, and extremity pain. Primary Raynaud's phenomenon is not associated with underlying disease, but secondary Raynaud's phenomenon is associated with connective tissue di - Calcium channel blockers for primary Raynaud's phenomenon
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Feb-2016
Calcium channel blockers are the most commonly prescribed drugs for people with primary Raynaud's phenomenon. Primary Raynaud's phenomenon is a common condition characterised by an exaggerated vasospastic response to cold or emotion: classically the digit - Calcium channel blockers for pulmonary arterial hypertension
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Sep-2015
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is one of several forms of pulmonary hypertension: a chronic disease of the pulmonary vasculature. The mean age at diagnosis is around 50 years old, with increasing prevalence in people over 70 years old (10% to 17%). - Calcium channel blockers versus other classes of drugs for hypertension
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 9-Jan-2022
This is the first update of a review published in 2010. While calcium channel blockers (CCBs) are often recommended as a first-line drug to treat hypertension, the effect of CCBs on the prevention of cardiovascular events, as compared with other antihyper - Calcium supplementation (other than for preventing or treating hypertension) for improving pregnancy and infant outcomes
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 25-Feb-2015
Maternal nutrition during pregnancy is known to have an effect on fetal growth and development. It is recommended that women increase their calcium intake during pregnancy and lactation, although the recommended dosage varies among professionals. Currentl - Calcium supplementation commencing before or early in pregnancy, for preventing hypertensive disorders of pregnancy
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 16-Sep-2019
The hypertensive disorders of pregnancy include pre-eclampsia, gestational hypertension, chronic hypertension, and undefined hypertension. Pre-eclampsia is considerably more prevalent in low-income than in high-income countries. One possible explanation f - Calcium supplementation during pregnancy for preventing hypertensive disorders and related problems
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 1-Oct-2018
Pre-eclampsia and eclampsia are common causes of serious morbidity and death. Calcium supplementation may reduce the risk of pre-eclampsia, and may help to prevent preterm birth. This is an update of a review last published in 2014. - Calcium supplementation for improving bone mineral density in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Apr-2006
Clinical trials have shown that calcium supplementation in children can increase bone mineral density (BMD) although this effect may not be maintained. There has been no quantitative systematic review of this intervention. - Calcium supplementation for prevention of primary hypertension
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 11-Jan-2022
Hypertension is a major public health problem that increases the risk of cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Several studies have shown an inverse association between calcium intake and blood pressure, as small reductions in blood pressure have been shown - Calcium supplementation for the management of primary hypertension in adults
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 19-Apr-2006
Metabolic studies suggest calcium may have a role in the regulation of blood pressure. Some epidemiological studies reported people with a higher intake of calcium tend to have lower blood pressure. Previous systematic reviews and meta-analyses reached co - Calcium supplementation on bone loss in postmenopausal women
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Nov-2008
Although calcium is one the simplest and least expensive strategies for preventing osteoporotic fractures calcium supplementation is nevertheless not without controversy (Kanis 1989; Nordin 1990).
