Captopril renography was utilized to assess the presence of angiotensin II dependent renovascular dysfunction in (1) 28 patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension (EH) with unimpaired renal function, and (2) 25 hypertensive patients with diabetic nephropathy (HDN). These studies were classified according to the diagnostic criteria outlined by the Working Party on Diagnostic Criteria of Renovascular Hypertension with Captopril Renography and the mean parenchymal transit time (MPTT) was used as an index for detecting the presence of angiotensin II dependent renal haemodynamic change. Patients with EH showed non-significant or non-specific alterations in the MPTT. Four patients in the HDN group showed a significant prolongation of MPTT in the presence of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone activation due to renal artery stenosis, and the other patients in this group showed a significant decrease in MPTT after captopril, consistent with increased blood flow and improved tubular transport function in the presence of microangiopathy only. We conclude that addition of MPTT to the standard diagnostic criteria of captopril renography may be helpful in predicting the beneficial or detrimental impact of angiotensin II inhibition treatment in HDN and in limiting the test protocol in EH to one post-captopril study.
