About this study

Official title: Effect of Fully Blocking Type 1 Angiotensin Receptor on Blood Pressure, Cardiac Structure, Cardiac Function and Cognitive Function in Postmenopausal Hypertensive Women

This study compared the improvements of blood pressure levels, left ventricular hypertrophy, left ventricular diastolic function, vascular function and cognitive function between postmenopausal hypertensive women and age-matched hypertensive male patients through the evaluation of the effects of fully blocked AT1 receptor by valsartan. Additionally, the differences of the above indexes between the patients who were fully blocked AT1 receptor by valsartan and the patients who were treated with a single dose of valsartan treatment were assessed, so as to provide theory basis for clinical treatment of postmenopausal hypertensive women.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Relative indexes of myocardial remodeling

    Cardiac structure (left ventricular mass index in grams for square meter) measurement.

    Measured: Change from Baseline left ventricular mass index at 6 months.

  2. Relative indexes of myocardial remodeling

    Cardiac structure (left ventricular mass index in grams for square meter) measurement.

    Measured: Change from Baseline left ventricular mass index at 12 months.

  3. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

    Non-invasive ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was performed for every enrolled patient with an ABPM equipment.

    Measured: Change from Baseline ABPM at 6 months.

  4. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring

    Non-invasive ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was performed for every enrolled patient with an ABPM equipment.

    Measured: Change from Baseline ABPM at 12 months.

  5. Sexual hormones

    Blood samples used to analyze the levels of sexual hormones were collected between morning 8:00 and 9:00 after an overnight fast. The sexual hormones which include prolactin (PRL) and progesterone (P) units on nanogram per millilitre, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) units on millionInternationalUnits per millilitre, testosterone (T) in nanogram per deciliter, estradiol (E2) in picogram per millilitre.

    Measured: Baseline sexual hormones.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Valsartan 1 and Valsartan 80 mg in people with Hypertension, run by LanZhou University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Relative indexes of myocardial remodeling (time frame: Change from Baseline left ventricular mass index at 6 months.). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Mar 2018.
