Few studies have reported the effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors on 24-h blood pressure (BP) and regulation of sympathetic nervous activity in hypertensive patients with diabetic nephropathy. Using ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) devices equipped with spectral analysis of heart rate variability, we assessed the effects of perindopril on 24-h BP and autonomic nervous activity in these patients.
