Patients with heart failure suffer from swelling because of too much fluid in the body. Furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, and metolazone are all water pills used to treat the swelling. For most patients, taking furosemide alone is successful. However, sometimes patients need to add another water pill. Doctors usually add either metolazone or hydrochlorothiazide.
Michelangelo was strongly inspired and influenced by ancient Greek and Roman art 4. During the dark ages, European medieval art was exclusively based on Christian themes, due to the lacking number of artists, many artistic techniques and knowledge was lost during this era.
An older and more thoughtful Michelangelo originally accepted the commission for this important painting from Pope Clement VII. The original subject of the mural was the resurrection, but with the Pope's death, his successor, Pope Paul III, felt the Last Judgment was a more fitting subject for 1530s Rome. While traditional medieval last judgments showed figures dressed according to their social positions, Michelangelo created a new standard.
