We assessed the effects of long-term antihypertensive treatment with 5 mg tertatolol, a noncardioselective beta-blocker, on left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and diastolic function. Fifteen hypertensive patients were selected as good responders to previous treatment with tertatolol (supine blood pressure less than 140/90 mm Hg). They were divided into 2 groups: group 1 with LVH (n = 6) and group 2 without LVH (n = 9). After a one month wash-out period, all patients received 5 mg tertatolol once daily. In case of uncontrolled blood pressure (BP), the dose was doubled after 2 weeks in 10 patients. BP control was obtained in all patients. M-mode echocardiography and Doppler-echocardiography were performed under controlled conditions after BP normalization and after 6 months of treatment. Long-term BP normalization significantly reduced left ventricular mass index (LVMI) in group 1 (from 137 +/- 3 to 121 +/- 3 g/m2, P less than .01), but not in group 2 (from 120 +/- 3 to 114 +/- 4 g/m2, P = NS). After 2 weeks of effective therapy, the ratio between early and late diastolic peak flow velocity across the mitral valve (E/A ratio), significantly increased in both groups (from 0.72 +/- 0.04 to 0.87 +/- 0.06 in group 1, P less than .05; and from 1.13 +/- 0.06 to 1.26 +/- 0.07 in group 2, P less than .05). After 6 months, together with the reduction of LVMI, a further increase of E/A ratio was only observed in group 1 (to 1.30 +/- 0.12, P less than .05).
