Additive effects of intensive BP control and ACE inhibition on suppression of proteinuria in patients with CKD

Journal of Human Hypertension, Published online: 25 March 2023; doi:10.1038/s41371-023-00823-zThe synergistic effects of RAAS inhibition and intensive blood pressure lowering in reducing proteinuria have not been well studied. We aimed to study this effect using data from the AASK Trial where our data suggest there is an additive and synergistic effect between RAAS inhibition and intensive blood pressure inhibition in reducing proteinuria.
