Key result
ACE inhibitor treatment caused recovery from acute renal failure in a patient with malignant hypertension despite low plasma renin levels.
Why the study?
Does ACE inhibitor treatment improve acute renal failure in a patient with malignant hypertension and low plasma renin?
Does ACE inhibitor treatment improve acute renal failure in a patient with malignant hypertension and low plasma renin?
ACE inhibitor treatment may be effective for acute renal failure in malignant hypertension even when plasma renin is low.
ACEi may aid renal recovery in malignant HTN despite low renin; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
