P-334: A-6G polymorphism of the angiotensinogen gene and body weight changes in essential hypertension: A prospective study

The objective was to assess the influence of the A-6G polymorphism of the promoter region of the angiotensinogen gene (Agtg) on the outcome of body weight (BW) during antihypertensive treatment in essential hypertension. One hundred and thirty-four patients (mean age 39 years, BP 151±17/97±9 mmHg, B...

Zusammenfassung:The objective was to assess the influence of the A-6G polymorphism of the promoter region of the angiotensinogen gene (Agtg) on the outcome of body weight (BW) during antihypertensive treatment in essential hypertension. One hundred and thirty-four patients (mean age 39 years, BP 151±17/97±9 mmHg, BW 75±8.2 kg), never before treated with antihypertensive drugs were included in the study. During three years of follow-up, the goal was to maintain DBP
