Adjusted^* mean reductions in blood pressure and urinary albumin:creatinine ratio from baseline to 12 weeks in patients with hypertension, microalbuminuria, and type 2 diabetes

	Candesartan	Lisinopril	Adjusted mean difference between treatments
Sitting diastolic blood pressure (mm Hg)	9.5 (7.7 to 11.2); P<0.001	9.7 (7.9 to 11.5); P<0.001	0.2 (−2.3 to 2.7); P >0.20
Sitting systolic blood pressure (mm Hg)	12.4 (9.1 to 15.8); P<0.001	15.7 (12.2 to 19.2); P<0.001	3.3 (−1.5 to 8.2); P=0.18
Urinary albumin:creatinine ratio (%)	30 (15 to 42); P<0.001	46 (35 to 56); P<0.001	30 (1 to 71); P=0.058†

^*Adjusted for centre, treatment, baseline value, weight, and change in diastolic blood pressure.
