Abstract

Animal studies have reported that treatment with angiotensin II receptor blockers reduced kidney sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter expression. We therefore hypothesized that patients with hypertension treated with an angiotensin II receptor blocker (candesartan) would probably have an increased response to sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter inhibitor therapy (ipragliflozin) compared with patients treated with alternative hypertensive medications such as calcium channel blockers (nifedipine).Although sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter inhibitor (ipragliflozin) is a new anti-diabetic medicine, the clinical efficacy in the Japanese population has not been fully evaluated. We compared the combined effect of angiotensin II receptor blocker candesartan plus ipragliflozin with nifedipine plus ipragliflozin therapy and found that the combination of candesartan plus ipragliflozin was more effective in increasing glycosuria and lowering plasma glucose.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 December 2014.
All research outputs
#20,246,428
of 22,774,233 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Medical Case Reports
#3,470
of 3,909 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#297,026
of 354,373 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Medical Case Reports
#63
of 72 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,774,233 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,909 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.9. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 354,373 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 72 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
