Blood pressure and renal functional parameter changes during 6 months.
| Added treatment group (n = 308) | Control group (n = 303) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| baseline | 6th month | baseline | 6th month | |
| Morning SBP (mmHg) | 153 ± 13 | 140 ± 15∗∗,†† | 151 ± 15 | 146 ± 16** |
| Morning DBP (mmHg) | 82 ± 10 | 73 ± 10∗∗,†† | 82 ± 11 | 80 ± 11** |
| Evening SBP (mmHg) | 140 ± 14 | 133 ± 15∗∗,†† | 140 ± 17 | 137 ± 15** |
| Evening DBP (mmHg) | 75 ± 10 | 69 ± 10∗∗,†† | 76 ± 11 | 74 ± 10** |
| Estimated GFR (mL/min/1.73 m2) | 84.1 ± 21.1 | 80.3 ± 19.3** | 82.0 ± 18.9 | 80.9 ± 19.9* |
| Creatinine (mg/dL) | 0.79 ± 0.27 | 0.82 ± 0.29** | 0.80 ± 0.25 | 0.82 ± 0.28* |
| UACR (mg/gCr) | 23.0 (11.4–63.1) | 14.7 (8.2–35.8)∗∗,† | 21.0 (10.7–53.2) | 19.4 (11.5–53.6) |
Data are shown as the means ± SD. UACR is expressed as the median values (25% value–75% value). BP: blood pressure; SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; GFR: glomerular filtration rate; UACR: urinary albumin/creatinine ratio.
*P < 0.05, **P < 0.001 versus baseline in each group: † P < 0.05, †† P < 0.001 versus the 6th month in the control group.
