Twenty three children aged from 5 to 16 with mild to moderate hypertension were investigated using the orally active angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor captopril. Falls in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure after a single dose of captopril were significantly correlated with initial plasma renin activity. In addition, some information about the aetiology of hypertension was deduced from the renin response to captopril. The blood pressure response to captopril is a useful screening test for renin dependent hypertension in childhood.
对23名年龄在5至16岁之间患有轻度至中度高血压的儿童使用口服活性血管紧张素转换酶抑制剂卡托普利进行了研究。单次服用卡托普利后收缩压和舒张压的下降与初始血浆肾素活性显著相关。此外,从对卡托普利的肾素反应中推断出了一些关于高血压病因的信息。卡托普利的血压反应是儿童肾素依赖性高血压的一种有用筛查试验。
