Hypertension in blacks: insights from Africa.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:The major advantage of dual inhibitors of neutral endopeptidase (NEP) and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is their ability to lower blood pressure irrespective of renin or volume status. The aim of this study was to determine whether dual NEP/ACE inhibition produces different effects on cardiovascular str...
