We describe our observations concerning differences in two groups of young hypertensive patients according to their renin activities after ACE inhibition. Seventeen of these patients (age 26 +/- 7 years), so far untreated, were investigated prospectively for hormone levels (renin, aldosterone, vasopressin), microalbuminuria, renal haemodynamics (inulin and PAH clearance) and signs of organ damage ...
