Acute and long-term effects of ACE inhibition on renal haemodynamics in glomerular and interstitial nephropathies
Background Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are the drugs of choice for the treatment of hypertension in patients with non-diabetic nephropathies. However, not every trial has reported better results with ACE inhibitors (ACE-I) than with other drugs. This study investigates whether the...
