Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the antihypertensive effect of amiloride added to triple antihypertensive therapy in patients with resistant hypertension (RH) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the antihypertensive effect of amiloride added to triple antihypertensive treatment in patients with resistant hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus in an open-labelled, non- controlled and non-randomized interventional study.

The secondary objectives were to evaluate the additional effects of amiloride on:

* Urinary albumin excretion
* Blood pressure control, how many patients reached blood pressure control when amiloride was added to previous triple antihypertensive treatment.
* Plasminogen and plasmin excretion (ENaC activity) in the micro-and macroalbuminuric patients in the cohort.
* Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) activity
