Why the study?
Does graded renal artery constriction affect blood pressure and plasma renin activity differently in 1K1C versus 2K1C Goldblatt hypertension models in rats?
Population
Rats with One-kidney, one clip (1K1C) and two-kidney, one clip (2K1C) Goldblatt hypertension
Comparison
Graded renal artery constriction using 0.30… vs Control rats without clips
Design
Preclinical
Follow-up
24 to 28 days

Does not support practice changes in renovascular hypertension; leaves open translation of 1K1C versus 2K1C model differences to humans.
Does graded renal artery constriction affect blood pressure and plasma renin activity differently in 1K1C versus 2K1C Goldblatt hypertension models in rats?
In rat models of Goldblatt hypertension, one-kidney one-clip models exhibit greater increases in mean arterial pressure and trans-clip pressure gradients compared to two-kidney one-clip models for any given degree of renal artery constriction.
Murphy et al. (1984) studied this question.
