Abstract
Methods: Our population consisted of 80 newly diagnosed untreated non-diabetics with stage I to II essential hypertension [57 men, mean age=50 years, office blood pressure (BP)=149/96 mmHg]. According to the ACR values determined as the mean of two non-consecutive morning spot urine samples, the study population was divided into microalbuminurics (n=19) (mean ACR=30-300 mg/g) and normoalbuminurics (n=61) (mean ACR<30 mg/g). Moreover, in all patients venous blood sampling was performed for estimation of OPG, hs-CRP and ADMA concentrations.
