Abstract: Limited evidence suggests a relationship between the use of antihypertensive medications and reduced salivary function. This article provides a review of the literature concerning the relationship between hypertension, hypertensive therapy and salivary function. A case report is presented to illustrate changes in salivary function in response to different types of antihypertensive medications.

A Comparison of Whole Mouth Resting and Stimulated Salivary Measurement Procedures
M. Navazesh,C.M. Christensen +1 more
TL;DR: Methods for collection and stimulation of whole mouth saliva were compared and Gustatory and masticatory stimuli induced significantly higher salivary flow compared to resting levels but the between- and within-subject variances were also higher.

Clinical Criteria for the Diagnosis of Salivary Gland Hypofunction
TL;DR: A set of four clinical measures were identified that, together, successfully predicted the presence or absence of salivary gland hypofunction, and these measures are proposed as criteria for clinical decision-making, as well as for classification of patients in studies of salvary gland dysfunction syndromes.

- 22 Nov 2011
TL;DR: The development of electron-microscopic methods has given reality to the originally hypothetical concept of plasma membranes and revealed a whole host of unknown membrane-covered organelles, which means that arguments based on membrane properties have become integral parts of biological and medical thinking.
