Early aggressive antihypertensive treatment reduces rate of decline in kidney function in diabetic nephropathy. 1983

H H Parving, and A R Andersen, and U M Smidt, and P A Svendsen

The effect of early aggressive antihypertensive treatment on kidney function in diabetic nephropathy was studied prospectively in ten insulin-dependent diabetics (mean age 29 years). During the mean pretreatment period of 29 (range 23-38) months the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decreased significantly and the urinary albumin excretion rate and arterial blood pressure rose significantly. During the 39 month (range 28-48) period of antihypertensive treatment with metoprolol, hydralazine, and frusemide (furosemide) or thiazide, arterial blood pressure fell from 144/97 mm Hg (mean of all pretreatment values) to 128/84 mm Hg (mean of all post-treatment values), urinary albumin excretion from 977 micrograms/min to 433 micrograms/min, and GFR from 80 to 62 ml/min/1 . 73 m2. The rate of decline in GFR decreased from 0.91 ml/min/month before treatment to 0.39 ml/min/month (range 0.08 to 0.68 ml/min/month) during treatment.

D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D007676 Kidney Failure, Chronic The end-stage of CHRONIC RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. It is characterized by the severe irreversible kidney damage (as measured by the level of PROTEINURIA) and the reduction in GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE to less than 15 ml per min (Kidney Foundation: Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative, 2002). These patients generally require HEMODIALYSIS or KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION.
