Effect of short-term antihypertensive therapy on left ventricular wall tension. A double-blind comparison of isradipine and nifedipine.

abstract：:Antihypertensive treatment is known to slow down the decline in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with time. Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition has been shown to be more effective in this regard than conventional antihypertensive therapy. In a recent prospective, randomized, double blind trial in 257 patien...
