ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: | NCT00345150 |
The study tests the hypothesis that systemic and renal nitric oxide synthesis is changed in essential hypertension by investigating the effects of a non selective nitric oxide inhibitor on renal hemodynamics and sodium excretion in patients with essential hypertension. The results are compared with a group of healthy subjects.
