Blood pressure control, drug therapy, and kidney disease.
The African American Study of Kidney Disease and Hypertension examined the effect on renal function decline of 2 blood pressure (BP) goals (low mean arterial pressure [MAP] < or =92 versus usual MAP 102 to 107 mm Hg) and 3 antihypertensives (ramipril versus amlodipine versus metoprolol). We previously reported that in all drug groups combined the BP intervention had similar effects on the prima...
متن کاملDe-stiffening drug therapy and blood pressure control
In hypertensive subjects, cardiovascular risk reduction is critically related to the decrease of systolic blood pressure (SBP). De-stiffening therapy means that, in a controlled therapeutic trial of long duration, a selective reduction of SBP has been obtained in the studied group by comparison with the control group, and that this SBP reduction is due to a decrease of either arterial stiffness...
متن کاملOptimizing blood pressure control in patients with chronic kidney disease.
The majority of patients with chronic kidney disease have hypertension, which is an independent risk factor for progression of kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, hypertension should be stringently controlled to a blood pressure level of <130/80 mm Hg. Achieving this goal, which usually requires two or more antihypertensive agents, slows the progression of kidney disease and r...
متن کاملIntensive blood-pressure control in hypertensive chronic kidney disease.
BACKGROUND In observational studies, the relationship between blood pressure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is direct and progressive. The burden of hypertension-related chronic kidney disease and ESRD is especially high among black patients. Yet few trials have tested whether intensive blood-pressure control retards the progression of chronic kidney disease among black patients. METHODS ...
متن کاملAggressive blood pressure control for chronic kidney disease unmasks moyamoya!
Hypertensive crises in children or adolescents are rare, but chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major risk factor for occurrence. Vesicoureteral reflux nephropathy is a common cause of pediatric renal failure and is associated with hypertension. Aggressive blood pressure (BP) control has been shown to delay progression of CKD and treatment is targeted for the 50th percentile for height when comp...
