Value of exercise testing for screening asymptomatic men for latent coronary artery disease.

Treadmill exercise testing identifies a group of men at high risk for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. However, the predictive value and sensitivity limitations are obvious. An abnormal electrocardiographic response does not absolutely predict the presence of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, and a normal response does not rule out this possibility. Thus in appropriate instances when the minimal risk of coronary angiography is justified this procedure can be used to determine the anatomic correlation of exercise-induced functional ST-segment changes.

Neutralization of the effects of captopril by the use of ibuprofen in an elderly woman.

This case report demonstrates that the antihypertensive effects of captopril were neutralized by the concomitant administration of ibuprofen. If elderly patients on ACE inhibitors show evidence of a "noncompliant" worsening of their hypertension, a thorough review of all the patient's medications, including the use of over-the-counter ibuprofen, should be undertaken.
