Renal macrostructure and cortical circulation in hypertension assessed by dynamic computed tomography.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Previous reports have demonstrated the antihypertensive efficacy of high doses of spironolactone in subjects with primary aldosteronism and, to a lesser degree, subjects with resistant hypertension. METHODS:In current analysis, we examined the antihypertensive benefit of adding low-dose spironolactone to mu...
