Relationship between plasma mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin level and resistance to antihypertensive therapy in stable kidney transplant recipients.

Highlights: [•] Kidney transplant recipients at least 90 days after transplantation were studied. [•] MR-proADM level correlates significantly with creatinine clearance. [•] MR-proADM level correlates significantly with treatment intensity score of antihypertensives. [•] MR-proADM level is an independent factor associated with treatment intensity score. [•] MR-proADM level may be useful for evaluating resistance to antihypertensive therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
