Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers prevent aortic arterial stiffness in elderly patients with hypertension

Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers prevent aortic arterial stiffness in elderly patients with hypertension

Backgrounds and aims: Increased arterial stiffness may increase cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers (ARBs) are potentially useful in controlling the central blood pressure and arterial stiffness in mild to moderate essential hypertension, while the effects...
