Patients presenting within one day of the onset of symptoms who have been hemodynamically stable were randomized, in a 2 x 2 factorial design, in order to six weeks of either. Studies in rats indicate that Lisinopril crosses the blood-brain barrier poorly. In addition towards the active ingredient Lisinopril, each tablet provides the following inactive ingredients: calcium phosphate, mannitol, magnesium stearate, and starch. Symptoms are not relieved by antihistamines in these situations.

Some patients with hypertension or heart failure without apparent pre-existing renal vascular disease have developed increases in blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine, usually minor and transient, particularly when Prinivil continues to be given concomitantly which has a diuretic. Always consult your medical professional or healthcare specialist for medical advice. In rare cases, intestinal angioedema has become reported with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors including Lisinopril. In one of the studies beneficial response was also noted for: orthopnea, presence of third heart sound and also the number of patients classified as NYHA Class III and IV.

Shawn Bird has been at the vanguard of the opinion research field for the last 15 years, conducting quantitative and qualitative studies in a wide range of environments and providing data-driven analysis to a diverse set of clients.  He recently joined Harstad Strategic Research after 12+ years at the U.S. State Department, where he served as the Deputy Director (Acting) of the Office of Opinion Research.

Over the years, Shawn has directed opinion research in over 100 countries—from Europe to Asia to Africa to Latin America—and has had to overcome myriad obstacles to deliver methodologically-sound research and first-rate analysis.  He knows how to tailor research methods to fit the conditions and culture of a given population helping to make certain he gets it right for the client.  On multiple occasions, Shawn has given keynote remarks at conferences of international opinion researchers, most recently in Dublin, Ireland in 2015.

Shawn designs customized research for the needs of clients—whether it’s been for the U.S. Secretary of State who wants to understand sentiments of foreign publics, an emerging company seeking to gauge its public image and opportunity for expanding market share, or a campaign needing research-based message development.

Shawn never forgets that a successful research project starts with listening to the client.  Clients know best what they need, but often aren’t sure how best to collect it.  Before deciding on an appropriate sample frame, interview mode, or question-wording, Shawn works with clients to identify a central research question and desired actionable outputs.  Setting a research project off on the right foot greatly improves the prospect of a gainful conclusion to it.

Effective communication—whether to prospective voters or consumers—depends on understanding the targeted audience’s values and emotions.  Harstad Strategic Research’s approach to research zeros in on what messages resonate most and what factors drive feelings and behavior.  Shawn employs the firm’s multi-dimensional approach to message testing that uses experimental research designs.

Shawn earned a Ph.D. from the University of Florida, a Master’s Degree from the University of Colorado, and a BA from the University of New Hampshire, all in the field of Political Science.  He has taught courses at Tufts University, Bentley College, and UMass-Boston.  He is a member of the American Association of Public Opinion Research (AAPOR) and the World Association of Public Opinion Research (WAPOR).
