The influence of antihypertensive treatment on the long-term evolution of arterial pressure and renal function was studied in a prospective controlled trial conducted in renal transplant recipients treated by cyclosporine. Within six months after transplantation, patients were randomly allocated to treatment by the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, lisinopril (ACEI, alone or associated with frusemide; N = 14), or the calcium antagonist, nifedipine (CA, alone or associated with atenolol; N = 11). Glomerular filtration rate (TcDTPA clearance) and effective renal plasma flow (hippuran clearance) as well as 24-hour urinary excretion of electrolytes and albumin were estimated at about 1 and 2.5 years of follow-up. Before initiation of antihypertensive therapy, the two groups were similar with regards to mean arterial pressure (119 +/- 2 vs. 120 +/- 4 mm Hg), effective renal plasma flow (285 +/- 26 vs. 248 +/- 33 ml/min/1.73 m2) and glomerular filtration rate (59 +/- 4 vs. 61 +/- 8 ml/min/1.73 m2 in the ACEI and CA groups, respectively). Both ACEI and CA treatments were associated with no change in renal function, a similar change in mean arterial pressure (ACEI -18 +/- 3; CA -13 +/- 5 mm Hg) and identical trough blood levels of cyclosporine. Urinary albumin excretion did not change significantly in any groups. Of interest, only in the ACEI group did filtration fraction significantly decrease (from 0.22 +/- 0.01% to 0.19 +/- 0.01% at final studies). These results indicate that in cyclosporine-treated transplant recipients, a satisfactory control of hypertension is obtained by chronic ACEI, which is as effective on arterial pressure as a combination of CA and atenolol.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Data have not shown consistent effects with calcium channel blockers on the course of renal function in patients with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) who have hypertension alone or in association with renal damage. The differences between the antiproteinuric effects of subclasses or formulations of calcium channel blockers and the heterogeneity of renal lesions may contribute to the discrepancy in these data. Clinical studies conducted by the authors and other recent data that describe the course of renal dysfunction in hypertensive NIDDM patients treated with antihypertensive agents are reviewed. Renal structural changes were also evaluated. RESULTS: Most available data indicate that angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and dihydropyridine and nondihydropyridine calcium channel blockers produce similar effects on glomerular filtration rate. In one study of patients achieving intensified, strict control of blood pressure (target<140/85 mmHg) with either cilazapril or amlodipine, glomerular filtration rate declined by 2.03+/-0.66 ml/ min/1.73 m2 per year and 2.01+/-0.71 ml/min/1.73 m2 per year, respectively, in the subgroup with normoalbuminuria and by 2.15+/-0.69 ml/min/1.73 m2 per year and 2.33+/-0.83 ml/min/ 1.73 m2 per year, respectively, in the subgroup with microalbuminuria. Renal lesions in NIDDM patients were found to be structurally heterogeneous and glomerular filtration rate appeared to decline only in patients with renal structural changes typical of NIDDM. CONCLUSIONS: The extent of blood pressure control, rather than the method by which this is accomplished, is the most important factor in determining the evolution of incipient nephropathy in hypertensive NIDDM. The kidneys of microalbuminuric NIDDM patients are structurally heterogeneous with less than one-third of patients having 'typical' diabetic nephropathology. 相似文献

In this study, we determined the fractional clearance of neutral polydisperse dextrans (theta D) and monodisperse dextran sulfate (theta DS) to describe glomerular size and charge selectivity in 25 renal transplant recipients with proteinuria. Thirteen were treated with low dose lisinopril for six months (group 1) and 12 patients without ACE inhibitor therapy formed group 2. Mean arterial blood pressure was stable (group 1, 112 +/- 4; group 2, 109 +/- 2 mm Hg at baseline and after 6 months) whereas creatinine clearance, glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow decreased nonsignificantly but were comparable at any time. Lisinopril treatment lowered filtration fraction (22 +/- 2 vs. 19 +/- 2%, P = 0.07) whereas no change was seen in group 2 (20 +/- 2%). The fractional protein excretion (mg urinary protein per day/ml creatinine clearance per day) was stable in group 1, but significantly increased in group 2. The same pattern was found for theta D larger than 56 A. theta DS was stable and consistently elevated in both groups at any time. We conclude that low dose ACE inhibitor treatment in proteinuric renal transplant recipients stabilizes glomerular size selectivity independently of its systemic hemodynamic effects. 相似文献

The effect of two angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, lisinopril and captopril, on proteinuria and renal haemodynamics was investigated in 11 hypertensives (9 men, 2 women; mean age 46 +/- 16 years) with proteinuria (> 1.5 g/24 h) due to chronic glomerulonephritis and impaired renal function (glomerular filtration rate < 75 ml/min). In a randomized and double-blind cross-over trial the patients received, each time for six weeks, either lisinopril (5 mg/d, sometimes increased to 10 mg/d after 3 weeks) or captopril (twice daily 12.5 mg, sometimes increased to twice 25 mg after 3 weeks). Initially and between the individual treatment phases they were on a placebo phase for 4 weeks. The following were measured: protein excretion, including fractional clearance of albumin and IgG, plasma-renin activity and renal haemodynamics. Protein excretion was not significantly reduced by either drug (placebo: 7.1 +/- 4.0 g/d; lisinopril: 5.1 +/- 2.8 g/d; captopril: 5.4 +/- 3.0 g/d). Albumin excretion and fractional albumin clearance were significantly decreased only by lisinopril (P < 0.05), not by captopril. Plasma-renin activity was increased more by lisinopril than captopril (Placebo: 1.0 +/- 0.9 ng/ml.h; lisinopril: 5.2 +/- 2.8 ng/ml.h [P < 0.05]; captopril: 1.8 +/- 1.3 ng/ml.h [P < 0.05]). The renal haemodynamics was only slightly influenced by either drug, but captopril significantly decreased the filtration fraction in the presence of chronic glomerulonephritis and renal failure. - Resulting from their influence on the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, ACE inhibitors have, in addition to their known action on renal haemodynamics, an independent effect on the loading barrier of the basal membrane of the kidney. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Essential hypertension is characterized by an impairment of endothelium-dependent vasodilatation. OBJECTIVE: To test whether antihypertensive treatment with the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor lisinopril can improve vasodilatation in response to endothelium-dependent agonists in essential hypertensive patients. DESIGN AND METHODS: We studied the effect of acute (6-8 h after dosing), prolonged (1 month) and chronic (12 months) lisinopril treatment on forearm blood flow response (strain-gauge plethysmography) induced in 10 hypertensive patients (aged 43.6 +/- 8.1 years, blood pressure 151.4 +/- 6.8/99.8 +/- 3.3 mmHg) by intrabrachial infusions of 0.15, 0.45, 1.5, 4.5, and 15 microg/100 ml per min acetylcholine and 5, 15, and 50 ng/100 ml per min bradykinin, two endothelium-dependent vasodilators, and 1, 2, and 4 microg/100 ml per min sodium nitroprusside, an endothelium-independent vasodilator. At baseline, vascular response was compared with that of 10 normotensive subjects (aged 42.4 +/- 6.6 years, blood pressure 118.4 +/- 6.1/77.8 +/- 3.4 mmHg). RESULTS: Hypertensive patients had blunted (P < 0.01 or less) vasodilatations in response to infusions of acetylcholine (from 3.7 +/- 0.3 to 18.3 +/- 4.9 ml/100 ml per min) and bradykinin (from 3.7 +/- 0.4 to 15.8 +/- 2.6 ml/100 ml per min) compared with those of controls (from 3.6 +/- 0.3 to 25.3 +/- 5.2 ml/100 ml per min for acetylcholine and from 3.7 +/- 0.3 to 26.9 +/- 4.9 ml/100 ml per min for bradykinin) whereas the responses to infusion of sodium nitroprusside were similar (from 3.6 +/- 0.3 to 18.5 +/- 3.9 and from 3.6 +/- 0.3 to 16.4 +/- 1.8 ml/100 ml per min, respectively). Acute and prolonged lisinopril treatments significantly (P < 0.05 or less) improved vasodilatation in response to infusion of bradykinin (from 3.7 +/- 0.4 to 24.5 +/- 4.9 and from 3.7 +/- 0.3 to 22.1 +/- 4.9 ml/100 ml per min, respectively), but not in response to infusions of acetylcholine and of sodium nitroprusside. Chronic lisinopril treatment increased (P < 0.05) the response to infusions of not only bradykinin (from 3.5 +/- 0.5 to 27.6 +/- 5.3 ml/100 ml per min), but also of acetylcholine (from 3.5 +/- 0.5 to 27.8 +/- 8.0 ml/100 ml per min) and sodium nitroprusside (from 3.4 +/- 0.6 to 25.9 +/- 8.5 ml/100 ml per min). However, when the responses to infusions of acetylcholine and bradykinin were normalized with respect to that to infusion of sodium nitroprusside, only the vasodilatation in response to infusion of bradykinin was shown to have been increased by lisinopril treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Administration of lisinopril to patients with essential hypertension can selectively increase vasodilatation in response to infusion of bradykinin. 相似文献

We evaluated the long-term effect of an intensive treatment of diabetic nephropathy (anti-hypertensive drugs, low protein diet, multiple insulin injections to achieve a good metabolic control) on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and albumin excretion rate (AER). Fourteen type I diabetic patients (mean age 45 +/- 9.5 years, mean duration of diabetes 23.5 +/- 7.3 years, 8 males/6 females) with glomerular filtration rate < 70 ml/min-1/1.73 m2 and albumin excretion rate > 30 micrograms/min were treated intensively for 36 months. This intensive treatment consisted of multiple insulin injections, antihypertensive therapy with ACE inhibitors and a low-protein diet (0.8 g/kg body wt/day.) Renal function was evaluated as GFR and AER. HbA1c mean value decreased significantly from 8.7 +/- 0.8% to 6.5 +/- 0.5% (P < 0.0002). GFR rose from 58 +/- 12 ml/min-1/1.73 m2 to 84 +/- 11 ml/min-1/1.73 m2 (P < 0.0008). AER decreased from 208 micrograms/min (range: 73 to 500) to 63.8 micrograms/min (range 15 to 180; P < 0.05). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased respectively from 144 +/- 26 mm Hg to 120 +/- 15 mm Hg and from 89 +/- 9 mm Hg to 75 +/- 8 mm Hg (P < 0.01). We obtained a rise of GFR and a reduction of proteinuria after three years of this treatment. We suggest that this intensive treatment in all patients with early stage diabetic nephropathy may be effective in slowing the progression to renal failure. 相似文献

Endothelium-dependent and -independent vascular responses were assessed in 10 NIDDM patients and 6 normal subjects with no evidence of atherosclerotic disease. Changes in forearm blood flow and arteriovenous (AV) serum nitrite/nitrate (NO2-/NO3-) concentrations were measured in response to intra-arterial infusion of acetylcholine (ACh) (7.5, 15, 30 microg/min, endothelium-dependent response) and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) (0.3, 3, 10 microg/min, endothelium-independent response). Insulin sensitivity (determined by minimal model intravenous glucose tolerance test) was lower in NIDDM patients (0.82 +/- 0.20 vs. 2.97 +/- 0.29 10(4) min x microU(-1) x ml(-1); P < 0.01). Baseline forearm blood flow (4.8 +/- 0.3 vs. 4.4 +/- 0.3 ml x 100 ml(-1) tissue x min(-1); NS), mean blood pressure (100 +/- 4 vs. 92 +/- 4 mmHg; NS), and vascular resistance (21 +/- 1 vs. 21 +/- 1 units; NS), as well as their increments during ACh and SNP, infusion were similar in both groups. No difference existed in baseline NO2-/NO3- concentrations (4.09 +/- 0.33 [NIDDM patients] vs. 5.00 +/- 0.48 micromol/l [control subjects]; NS), their forearm net balance (0.31 +/- 0.08 [NIDDM patients] vs. 0.26 +/- 0.08 micromol/l x 100 ml(-1) tissue x min(-1); NS), and baseline forearm glucose uptake. During ACh infusion, both NO2- and NO3- concentrations and net balance significantly increased in both groups, whereas glucose uptake increased only in control subjects. When data from NIDDM and control groups were pooled together, a correlation was found between the forearm AV NO2- and NO3- differences and blood flow (r = 0.494, P = 0.024). On the contrary, no correlation was evident between NO2- and NO3- concentrations or net balance and insulin sensitivity. In summary, 1) no difference existed in basal and ACh-stimulated NO generation and endothelium-dependent relaxation between uncomplicated NIDDM patients and control subjects; 2) in both NIDDM and control groups, forearm NO2- and NO3- net balance following ACh stimulation was related to changes in the forearm blood flow; and 3) ACh-induced increase in forearm blood flow was associated with an increase in glucose uptake only in control subjects but not in NIDDM patients. In conclusion, our results argue against a role of impaired NO generation and blood flow regulation in determining the insulin resistance of uncomplicated NIDDM patients; rather, it supports an independent insulin regulation of hemodynamic and metabolic effects. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The natural history of heart failure is one of continued worsening of cardiac function. Beta-receptor blocker therapy has been effective in improving clinical status and left ventricular function in patients with heart failure. Similarly, high doses of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors with nitrates partially reverse the ventricular remodeling of heart failure. HYPOTHESIS: We tested the hypothesis that beta-blocker therapy added to high-dose ACE inhibitor-nitrates would potentiate the reversal of heart failure. METHODS: Thirteen patients, aged 52 +/- 8 years, with moderate to severe heart failure, 12 of whom were referred for transplant consideration, with heart failure duration of 4.8 +/- 2.2 years, were prospectively followed for 12 months. Baseline echocardiographic ejection fraction was 19 +/- 8%, and presenting New York Heart Association class was 2.9 +/- 0.7. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and nitrates were uptitrated over 6 months to a final dose of lisinopril 53 +/- 31 mg/day, and isosorbide dinitrate 217 +/- 213 mg/day. At 6 months, beta-blocker therapy with atenolol was initiated and titrated to a final dose of 46 +/- 23 mg/day. Two-dimensional Doppler echocardiography and metabolic stress testing were performed at baseline, at 6 months on lisinopril-nitrates only, and at 12 months on combined ACE inhibitor-nitrate and beta-blocker therapy. RESULTS: New York Heart Association classification improved from 2.9 +/- 0.7 to 1.8 +/- 0.8 on lisinopril-nitrates (p < 0.05), and to 1.5 +/- 0.5 with the addition of beta blockade (p = NS). On follow-up, peak oxygen consumption rose from 17 +/- 7 ml O2/kg/min at baseline to 21 +/- 5 ml O2/kg/min at 6 months on lisinopril-nitrates (p = 0.06) without further change on beta blockade. Ejection fraction rose from 19 +/- 8 to 33 +/- 14% on lisinopril-nitrates at 6 months (p = 0.005) and to 36 +/- 18% on beta blockade at 12 months (p = NS). CONCLUSION: High-dose ACE inhibitor-nitrate therapy significantly improved patient clinical status and left ventricular systolic function in heart failure. The addition of beta-receptor blockade over and above high-dose ACE inhibitor-nitrates was well tolerated but had no further impact on symptomatic status, exercise tolerance, or left ventricular systolic function. The potential for pharmacologic reversal of heart failure remodeling may be finite despite the use of complementary therapies. Larger placebo-controlled and randomized trials of beta-receptor blockade added to high-dose ACE inhibitor-nitrate therapy are needed to confirm these observations. 相似文献

The clinical importance of selection of different antihypertensive drugs for the treatment of diabetic patients is still unclear. Thus we performed a randomised, controlled study in 105 hypertensive non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) patients with microalbuminuria over 1 year. Patients received either the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor ramipril (2.5-5.0 mg/day; in addition 24% of patients also received felodipine) or the beta blocking agent atenolol (50-100 mg/day; in addition 24% of patients also received hydrochlorothiazide). Blood pressure, metabolic control, lipid levels and albumin excretion rate were studied during the follow-up. After 1 year an almost identical fall (p < 0.001) in blood pressure was observed with ramipril (170/100 vs 150/ 85 mmHg, median) and atenolol (180/100 vs 150/ 80 mmHg, median). With ramipril a reduction of total cholesterol (6.3 vs 5.9 mmol/l), of LDL cholesterol (3.8 vs 3.6 mmol/l) and HDL cholesterol (1.3 vs 1.2 mmol/l) was found, whereas triglycerides slightly increased (1.8 vs 2.0 mmol/l). With atenolol a similar reduction of total cholesterol (6.3 vs 5.9 mmol/l), LDL cholesterol (3.8 vs 3.7 mmol/l) and HDL cholesterol (1.4 vs 1.2 mmol/l) and an increase of triglycerides (1.4 vs 1.7 mmol/l) was noted. Metabolic control of the patients was maintained with both ramipril and atenolol treatment. With ramipril treatment urinary albumin creatinine ratio (14.4 vs 13.8 mg/mmol) and creatinine clearance (82 vs 84 ml/min) were constant, but with atenolol an increase of albumin creatinine ratio (13.9 vs 19 mg/mmol, p < 0.001) and a slight decrease of creatinine clearance (80 vs 66 ml/min, p < 0.05, not significant after Bonferroni correction) was observed. In conclusion: 1-year treatment of NIDDM patients with ramipril or atenolol does not influence metabolic control, the changes in serum lipids were similar. Despite almost identical blood pressure reduction in both groups the albumin creatinine ratio was constant under ramipril, but increased under atenolol treatment. 相似文献

This study was aimed at evaluating the antihypertensive effect of lisinopril and hydrochlorothiazide administered in the fixed combination of 20 and 12.5 mg, respectively, on clinic and 24-h blood pressure in elderly patients (age, 68.8 +/- 5.8 years, mean +/- SD) with mild-to-moderate essential systodiastolic or isolated systolic hypertension. After a washout period of 4 weeks, patients received once daily lisinopril combined with hydrochlorothiazide for a 6-week period. At the end of the washout and treatment periods, clinic blood pressure was assessed 24 h after dosing, and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure was monitored, taking blood pressure readings every 15 min. Pretreatment clinic blood pressure was 171.3 +/- 14.0/103.7 +/- 5.1 mm Hg (systolic/diastolic) in the group with systodiastolic hypertension (n = 405) and 179.6 +/- 9.4/83.6 +/- 5.4 mm Hg in the group with isolated systolic hypertension (n = 165). The corresponding 24-h average blood pressures were 144.1 +/- 13.9/88.7 +/- 8.4 mm Hg (n = 114) and 150.7 +/- 15.5/80.8 +/- 9.4 mm Hg (n = 40). Clinic blood pressure was significantly reduced by treatment in both groups. This was the case also for ambulatory blood pressure, which was reduced by 9.6 +/- 0.9%/9.9 +/- 0.9% in systodiastolic and by 11.8 +/- 1.3%/8.5 +/- 1.5% in isolated patients with systolic hypertension (p < 0.05 at least for all differences). The antihypertensive effect was similar in patients older and younger than 70 years. In all groups, it was manifest both during the day and the nighttime and was still significant after 24 h. Thus single daily administration of combined lisinopril-hydrochlorothiazide effectively reduces blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Hypertension and nephrotoxicity are well-known side-effects of cyclosporine A (CsA). CsA-induced vasoconstriction of the afferent glomerular arteriole probably plays a role in at least the nephrotoxicity. Frequently renal transplant recipients on CsA have to be treated with antihypertensive drugs and for this purpose also beta-blockers are used. Tertatolol is a new beta-blocker with specific vasodilatory properties, and thus might be particularly useful in CsA-treated transplant recipients. METHODS: We studied the systemic and renal haemodynamic effects of atenolol and tertatolol in 12 hypertensive renal transplant recipients on cyclosporine A (CsA). In a cross-over way, all patients were treated with atenolol and tertatolol for 4 weeks each, separated by a wash-out period also of 4 weeks. At the end of each period, the mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and renal plasma flow (RPF) were measured. RESULTS: The mean arterial pressure was lower (P < 0.05) during atenolol (124 +/- 2 mm Hg) and tertatolol (125 +/- 2 mm Hg) treatment compared with washout (132 +/- 4 mm Hg). Also the heart rate was lower (P < 0.01) during atenolol and tertatolol (54 +/- 3 and 55 +/- 2 beats/min respectively) than in the wash-out period (65 +/- 3 beats/min). GFR and RPF were not changed by either beta-blocker. CONCLUSION: In CsA treated renal transplant recipients both atenolol and tertatolol effectively reduced blood pressure. In these patients we found no evidence of a specific vasodilatory effect of tertatolol. Both beta-blockers had no negative influence on renal function. Hence, these cardioprotective agents are an attractive and safe choice for the treatment of hypertension in such patients. 相似文献

Whole body insulin resistance characterizes patients with NIDDM, but it is not known whether insulin also has impaired ability to stimulate myocardial glucose uptake (MGU) in these patients. This study was designed to evaluate MGU as measured by 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) and positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with NIDDM and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) under standardized metabolic conditions. Eight patients with NIDDM, 11 nondiabetic patients with CAD, and 9 healthy control subjects were enrolled in the study. MGU was quantitated in the normal myocardial regions with [18F]FDG and PET and the whole body glucose disposal by glucose-insulin clamp technique (serum insulin, -430 pmol/l). Plasma glucose and serum insulin concentrations were comparable in all groups during PET studies. The whole body glucose uptake was 45% lower in NIDDM patients (22 +/- 9 micromol x min(-1) X kg(-1) body wt [mean +/- SD]), compared with healthy control subjects (40 +/- 17 micromol x min(-1) x kg(-1) body wt, P < 0.05). In CAD patients, whole body glucose uptake was 30 +/- 9 micromol x min(-1) x kg(-1) body wt (NS between the other groups). MGU was similar in the normal segments in all three groups (69 +/- 28 micromol x min(-1) x 100 g(-1) in NIDDM patients, 72 +/- 17 micromol x min(-1) x 100 g(-1) in CAD patients, and 76 +/- 10 micromol x min(-1) x 100 g(-1) in healthy control subjects, NS). No correlation was found between whole body glucose uptake and MGU. As studied by [18F]FDG PET under stable normoglycemic hyperinsulinemic conditions, MGU is not reduced in patients with NIDDM and CAD in spite of peripheral insulin resistance. These findings suggest that there is no significant defect in MGU in patients with NIDDM. 相似文献

In a prospective follow-up of 30 patients with type 1 diabetes and nephropathy, serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein Al and B, and lipoprotein(a) were determined to study their relationship to the rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate. The patients had proteinuria and advanced nephropathy with a mean +/- SD glomerular filtration rate of 39 mL/min/1.73 m2. The decline in glomerular filtration rate was determined during 2.5 +/- 0.5 years. High serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and apolipoprotein B were correlated to a more rapid deterioration in kidney function. The rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate was 1.0 +/- 2.5 mL/min/yr in the 10 patients with the lowest cholesterol level, compared with 4.5 +/- 3.2 mL/min/yr in the patients with the highest serum cholesterol (P = 0.015). The combined effect of the measured lipids, blood pressure, type of antihypertensive treatment, protein intake, proteinuria, and hemoglobin A1C on the rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate was assessed by multiple regression analysis. The measured factors together had a high explanatory power for the rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate. In this model, 73% of the variation in decline in glomerular filtration rate was explained by the measured variables (multiple r2 = 0.73). Low cholesterol and treatment with an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor were the strongest predictors of a favorable renal prognosis. This suggests that hypercholesterolemia is an important risk factor for diabetic nephropathy. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Cyclosporine (CsA) is a potent immunosuppressive drug widely used in organ transplantation and in the treatment of autoimmune diseases (1, 2). However, its common nephrotoxic effect is a major limiting factor. Short-term CsA treatment has been shown to cause reversible renal vasoconstriction, whereas long-term treatment can lead to an afferent arteriolopathy and chronic renal failure. METHODS: We performed a randomized controlled trial to examine the short-term renal effects of verapamil in 32 CsA-treated heart or lung transplant recipients. Sixteen patients each were randomized to receive a 6-week course of verapamil or control treatment (atenolol in hypertensive patients and placebo in normotensive patients) 1-2 months after transplantation. An 8-hr sequential clearance study of inulin and p-aminohippuric acid for estimating glomerular filtration rate and renal plasma flow, respectively, was performed at baseline and at completion of study. The integral area under the curve of the clearance parameter over 8 hr was then calculated to generate a clearance-time index. RESULTS: There was no difference in the clearance-time indices for inulin and p-aminohippuric acid between the two groups at baseline. However, at the completion of study, the within-group change in the glomerular filtration rate clearance-time index was different between the verapamil and control groups (48+/-20 vs. -35+/-17 ml/min/1.73 m2 x hr, respectively; P=0.0038). A similar trend was seen for renal plasma flow, but did not reach statistical significance. Mean arterial blood pressure and whole-blood CsA levels did not differ between the two groups during the study. Verapamil treatment was also associated with a decrease in CsA dose requirement (7.6+/-0.58 mg/kg/day at baseline vs. 4.6+/-0.40 mg/kg/day at completion; P<0.001) without any significant change in trough whole blood CsA levels. Rejection episodes did not differ between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: The use of verapamil in the heart or lung transplant recipients may therefore provide both renal protective effects and cost savings. 相似文献

Progression of nephropathy in long-term diabetics with proteinuria and effect of initial anti-hypertensive treatment 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
CE Mogensen 《Canadian Metallurgical Quarterly》1976,36(4):383-388
The rate of progression of nephropathy was studied in 6 young male diabetics with intermittent proteinuria (Albustix) and in 10 young male diabetics with constant proteinuria by measuring glomerular filtration rate (GFR), renal plasma flow (RPF), and urinary albumin excretion by exact techniques. Albumin excretion was elevated in both the recumbent and the erect position in patients with intermittent proteinuria. GFR and RPF were at the same level as in diabetics without proteinuria, and no deterioration in renal function was noted during a mean control period of 32 months. In the patients with constant proteinuria the fall rate during a mean period of 33.6 months for GFR and RPF was 0.91 ml/min/month +/- 0.68 (S.D.) and 4.38 ml/min/month +/- 3.23 (S.D.) respectively. Initial fall rate in GFR correlated well with long-term fall rate, both of which were studied in 7 patients. In the same patients there was a positive correlation between the fall rate in GFR and diastolic blood pressure as well as albumin clearance. In 8 patients with constant proteinuria and mean blood pressure of 159/101 mmHg, antihypertensive treatment was started with propranolol alone or combined with hydralazine and furosemide. During a treatment period of 47 days blood pressure was reduced to 143/93 mmHg, and in the same period urinary albumin excretion was reduced significantly from a mean value of 3547 mug/min to 2414 mug/min (P less than 0.01). Further control studies will clarify whether end-stage of renal insufficiency will be postponed by antihypertensive treatment. 相似文献

Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and NIDDM are both associated with an impaired ability of the beta-cell to sense and respond to small changes in plasma glucose concentrations. The aim of this study was to establish if glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), a natural enteric peptide and potent insulin secretagogue, improves this defect. Two weight-matched groups, one with eight subjects having IGT (2-h glucose, 10.1 +/- 0.3 mmol/l) and another with seven subjects with diet-treated NIDDM (2-h glucose, 14.5 +/- 0.9 mmol/l), were studied on two occasions during a 12-h oscillatory glucose infusion, a sensitive test of the ability of the beta-cell to sense and respond to glucose. Glucose was infused with a mean rate of 4 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1), amplitude 33% above and below the mean rate, and periodicity of 144 min, with infusion of saline or GLP-1 at 0.4 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1) for 12 h. Mean glucose levels were significantly lower in both groups during the GLP-1 infusion compared with during saline infusion: 9.2 +/- 0.4 vs. 6.4 +/- 0.1 mmol/l in the IGT subjects (P < 0.0004) and 14.6 +/- 1.0 vs. 9.3 +/- 0.7 mmol/l in NIDDM subjects (P < 0.0002). Despite this significant reduction in plasma glucose concentration, insulin secretion rates (ISRs) increased significantly in IGT subjects (513.3 +/- 77.6 vs. 583.1 +/- 100.7 pmol/min; P < 0.03), with a trend toward increasing in NIDDM subjects (561.7 +/- 122.16 vs. 642.8 +/- 128 pmol/min; P = 0.1). These results were compatible with enhanced insulin secretion in the presence of GLP-1. Spectral power was used as a measure of the ability of the beta-cell to secrete insulin in response to small changes in the plasma glucose concentration during the oscillatory infusion. Spectral power for ISR increased from 2.1 +/- 0.9 during saline infusion to 7.4 +/- 1.3 during GLP-1 infusion in IGT subjects (P < 0.004), but was unchanged in NIDDM subjects (1.0 +/- 0.4 to 1.5 +/- 0.6; P = 0.3). We concluded that low dosage GLP-1 improves the ability of the beta-cell to secrete insulin in both IGT and NIDDM subjects, but that the ability to sense and respond to subtle changes in plasma glucose is improved in IGT subjects, with only a variable response in NIDDM subjects. Beta-cell dysfunction was improved by GLP-1 infusion, suggesting that early GLP-1 therapy may preserve beta-cell function in subjects with IGT or mild NIDDM. 相似文献

Double-blind, randomized controlled studies of longer than 1 week in duration comparing the antiproteinuric potential of long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers with that of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are lacking. Therefore, we performed such a study in patients with nondiabetic renal disease and proteinuria. After a 4-week wash-out period in which patients did not use any medication known to affect proteinuria, 21 patients were randomized in a double-blind fashion to receive either the calcium channel blocker amlodipine (Amlo, 5 to 10 mg) or the ACE-inhibitor lisinopril (Lis, 5 to 10 mg). Throughout the 16-week study period, blood pressure, creatinine clearances, and proteinuria were measured every 2 weeks. In addition, device-measured blood pressure and renal hemodynamic studies were performed at the start and end of the study. Systolic blood pressure fell in the Lis group from 163+/-7 (SEM) to 140+/-8 mm Hg (P < .01) and from 157+/-10 to 147+/-6 mm Hg in the Amlo group; diastolic blood pressure fell from 101+/-3 to 86+/-7 mm Hg in the Lis group and from 98+/-3 to 91+/-2 mm Hg in the Amlo group. Renal hemodynamics were not affected by amlodipine treatment, whereas a fall in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was seen in lisinopril-treated patients (from 55+/-11 to 50+/-10 mL/min; P < .01). Amlodipine did not significantly affect proteinuria. Lisinopril induced a decline in the protein-creatinine ratio with a maximal effect reached after 12 to 16 weeks of therapy (from 0.39+/-0.17 to 0.26 +/-0.11 g/mmol; P < .009). In conclusion, we could not demonstrate an antiproteinuric effect of the long-acting dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker amlodipine, whereas therapy with the ACE-inhibitor lisinopril resulted in a decrease in proteinuria. Amlodipine did not affect renal hemodynamics, whereas lisinopril induced a fall in GFR. 相似文献

A new modelling analysis was developed to assess insulin sensitivity with a tracer-modified intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT). IVGTTs were performed in 5 normal (NGT) and 7 non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) subjects. A 300 mg/kg glucose bolus containing [6,6-(2)H2]glucose was given at time 0. After 20 min, insulin was infused for 5 min (NGT, 0.03; NIDDM, 0.05 U/kg). Concentrations of tracer, glucose, insulin and C-peptide were measured for 240 min. A circulatory model for glucose kinetics was used. Glucose clearance was assumed to depend linearly on plasma insulin concentration delayed. Model parameters were: basal glucose clearance (Cl(b)), glucose clearance at 600 pmol/l insulin concentration (Cl600), basal glucose production (Pb), basal insulin sensitivity index (BSI = Cl(b)/basal insulin concentration); incremental insulin sensitivity index (ISI = slope of the relationship between insulin concentration and glucose clearance). Insulin secretion was calculated by deconvolution of C-peptide data. Indices of basal pancreatic sensitivity (PSIb) and first (PSI1) and second-phase (PSI2) sensitivity were calculated by normalizing insulin secretion to the prevailing glucose levels. Diabetic subjects were found to be insulin resistant (BSI: 2.3 +/- 0.6 vs 0.76 +/- 0.18 ml x min(-1) x m(-2) x pmol/l(-1), p < 0.02; ISI: 0.40 +/- 0.06 vs 0.13 +/- 0.05 ml x min(-1) x m(-2) x pmol/l(-1), p < 0.02; Cl600: 333 +/- 47 vs 137 +/- 26 ml x min(-1) x m(-2), p < 0.01; NGT vs NIDDM). Pb was not elevated in NIDDM (588 +/- 169 vs 606 +/- 123 micromol x min(-1) x m(-2), NGT vs NIDDM). Hepatic insulin resistance was however present as basal glucose and insulin were higher. PSI1 was impaired in NIDDM (67 +/- 15 vs 12 +/- 7 pmol x min x m(-2) x mmol/l(-1), p < 0.02; NGT vs NIDDM). In NGT and in a subset of NIDDM subjects (n = 4), PSIb was inversely correlated with BSI (r = 0.95, p < 0.0001, log transformation). This suggests the existence of a compensatory mechanism that increases pancreatic sensitivity in the presence of insulin resistance, which is normal in some NIDDM subjects and impaired in others. In conclusion, using a simple test the present analysis provides a rich set of parameters characterizing glucose metabolism and insulin secretion, agrees with the literature, and provides some new information on the relationship between insulin sensitivity and secretion. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The level of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and its determinants in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are currently controversial. DESIGN OF THE STUDY: We measured GFR and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) in 121 consecutive NIDDM without evidence of overt diabetic nephropathy. Age varied from 28 to 70 years, 61.2% were women and known duration of NIDDM was 0-37 years. Hypertension was detected in 36.4% of patients and 47.8% had microalbuminuria. RESULTS: An inverse correlation was found between GFR and age, but not with known duration of NIDDM: It was a weak correlation (r = -0.41) but statistically significant (P < 0.001). The other variables considered were not significant by multiple stepwise regression analysis, but patients with lower GFR tended to have diabetic retinopathy more frequently. GFR was lower in hypertensive compared to normotensive patients (123 +/- 28.4 versus 136 +/- 32.5 ml/min/1.73 m2; P < 0.05), but was not different between patients with normal and elevated albumin excretion rate. ERPF also had an inverse correlation with age (r = -0.45, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: We conclude that (i) age should be considered as a confounding variable when evaluating GFR in patients with NIDDM, and (ii) the age-dependent decline in GFR may mask hyperfiltration in the early stages of diabetic nephropathy in NIDDM: 相似文献

To investigate how antihypertensive drugs with different pharmacological properties affect ambulatory blood pressure (BP) the JAPANESE Study Group developed a database of clinic and ambulatory BPs before and after antihypertensive treatment of patients throughout Japan. Drugs evaluated were nilvadipine (n = 195; b.i.d, 4-8 mg/day), amlodipine (n = 75; q.d., 2.5-10 mg/day), lisinopril (n = 80; q.d., 10-20 mg/day) and bisoprolol (n = 49; q.d., 5-10 mg/day). The relationship between basal ambulatory BP and the hypotensive effect on ambulatory BP during treatment was examined. All antihypertensive drugs significantly decreased both clinic BP and ambulatory BP. The hypotensive effect determined by measurement of clinic BP was significantly greater than that determined by ambulatory BP. The hypotensive effect was positively correlated with basal ambulatory BP. However, there was a quantitative difference in this characteristic among the drugs. The critical daytime systolic ambulatory BP below which a hypotensive effect was not observed was extrapolated to 128, 127 and 124 mm Hg with nilvadipine, amlodipine and bisoprolol, respectively, while that with lisinopril was 97 mm Hg. The slope of the correlation coefficient between basal daytime ambulatory systolic BP and hypotensive effect with lisinopril was significantly smaller than those with the other drugs (P < 0.0001). The slope for the relationship between night-time ambulatory systolic BP and the hypotensive effect with bisoprolol was the steepest (P < 0.0001). Antihypertensive drugs with different pharmacological properties exhibited differing hypotensive effects on the basal ambulatory BP. Such differences in efficacy of the drugs on the basal ambulatory BP may reflect adverse effects of the drugs and the prognosis of hypertension. 相似文献
