BACKGROUND: Our aim was to determine whether the change in left ventricular (LV) mass in response to antihypertensive treatment could be predicted by multivariate analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in candidate genes reflecting pathways likely to be involved in blood pressure control. METHODS: Patients with mild to moderate primary hypertension and LV hypertrophy were randomized in a double-blind...
