Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in left ventricular hypertrophy, assessed by two dimensionally guided M-mode echocardiography). This study was done by an expert who didn't know the treatment of the patients, and he followed the recomendations of the American Society of Cardiology. The measures assesed were: left ventricular mass, left ventricular posterior wall thikness, left ventricular septum thikness, left ventricular diastolic diameter and left ventricular mass index that was calculated according with Devereux formula.[Baseline, three and six months following randomisation];Systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressured assesed by 24h ambulatory blood pressure, using a 24 h ambulatory non invasive device.[Baseline, three and six months after randomisation]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
24h creatinine clearance. assessed in a 24h urine sample and blood sample.[Baseline, three and six months after randomization];Pro brain natriuretic peptide,determined in blood sample after a fasting period of 10 h. the samples were obtained after 30 minutes resting in bed.[Baseline, three and six months after randomization];Prolactin plasma levels determined in blood samples[Baseline and three and six months following randomization]
