简要总结
An impairment of endothelial function plays the central role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and their complications. Most of cardiovascular risk factors are known to impair endothelial function and the established disease further aggravates endothelial dysfunction.
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effects of nebivolol or metoprolol succinate on endothelial function and large artery stiffness.
详细描述
The aim of this study was to compare the effects between the vasodilating β-blocker nebivolol and the cardioselective β-blocker metoprolol succinate on aortic blood pressure and left ventricular wall thickness. We conducted a randomized, double-blind study in 80 hypertensive patients. Patients received either nebivolol 5 mg or metoprolol succinate 50-100 mg daily for one year. Their heart rate, central and brachial blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, augmentation index, carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity and left ventricular wall thickness were measured at baseline and at the end of the study.
