Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study endpoint of this study is the renal response (GFR, ERPF and FF)<br /><br>to angiotensin II in formerly preeclamptic women compared to healthy controls. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>To evaluate the difference in systemic response (blood pressure) to angiotensin<br /><br>II<br /><br>To evaluate the difference in response to sodium intake in relation to blood<br /><br>pressure and renal function<br /><br>To evaluate absolute renal function determined as GFR, ERPF and FF.<br /><br>To evaluate the difference in response to sodium intake on plasma values of<br /><br>markers of renin-angiotensin system activity, including angiotensin II,<br /><br>aldosteron, angiotensin converting enzyme activity and plasma renin activity.<br /><br>To evaluate the gender differences in renal and blood pressure response to<br /><br>different sodium intakes and angiotensin II infusion. </p><br>
