Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Candesartan

Arm Description

Subjects were treated for 24 weeks with Candesartan 16mg once daily as initial dose. Subjects were modified investigational product dose to Candesartan 32mg, Candesartan 32mg + Felodipine 5mg, Candesartan 32mg + Felodipine 10mg, sequentially according to their blood pressures.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percent Change of B Type Natriuretic Peptides (BNP) Level
Change of B Type Natriuretic Peptides Level of the Subjects With Hypertension and Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) Treated With Candesartan Based Therapy for 24 Weeks was calculated just as the later time point minus the earlier time point. No specific calculation was used.

Secondary Outcome Measures

LVH(Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) Regression by Echocardiac Parameter, Left Ventricular Mass Index
Change of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy(LVH) by Echocardiac Parameter, Left Ventricular mass Index (LVMI) was calculated and collected through the way of Last Observational carried forward. LVH/Index was calculated like this: Divide LV mass with Body Surface Area.
Change of Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP)
Change of Systolic Blood Pressure was calculated and collected through the way of Last Observational carried forward.
Change of Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP)
Change of Diastolic Blood Pressure was calculated and collected through the way of Last Observational carried forward. Only who has diastolic blood pressure data both baseline and follow up was analyzed. Most of patient who enrolled, 302 have a data.
Percent Change of proBNP(B Type Natriuretic Peptides) in Patients Treated With Candesartan Only
Percent change of proBNP(B type Natriuretic Peptides) was calculated and collected through the way of Last Observational carried forward.
Percent Change of proBNP(B Type Natriuretic Peptides) in Patients With Candesartan Plus Felodipine
Percent change of proBNP(B type Natriuretic Peptides) was calculated and collected through the way of Last Observational carried forward.
