From: Telmisartan improves endothelial dysfunction and renal autoregulation in Dahl salt-sensitive rats
Renal flow autoregulation in DS-L (DS normotensive rats fed a 0.9% salt diet) (a), DS-H (untreated DS rats) (b), DS-H-Hyd (DS rats treated with hydralazine) (c) and DS-H-Tel (DS rats treated with telmisartan) (d). n=6 in each group. Autoregulatory index (AI)=[(RF2–RF1)/RF1]/[(RPP2–RPP1)/RPP1]. DS, Dahl salt-sensitive hypertensive; RF, renal flow; RPP, renal perfusion pressure.
