About
The study is to identify the effectiveness of Eprosartan on pulse pressure in hypertensive patients with metabolic syndrome
-Definition of pulse pressure (PP): Difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure produced one heart beat.
Full description
Primary Objective
-To assess the changes of pulse pressure at 12 weeks
Secondary Objectives
To assess the changes of pulse pressure at 4, 24 weeks
To assess the changes of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure at each visit
Percentage of responder rate* at each visit and time to get normalized BP from enrollment
Responder rate at last visit
To assess IIEF-5 (5-item Version of the International Index of Erectile Function) score at enrollment and 24 weeks (percentage of patients with ED according to IIEF-5, Changes of IIEF-5 domains)
Percentage of patients with erectile dysfunction (ED) according to IIEF-5 and changes of PP in subgroup (age 65, body mass index (BMI) 23, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, benign prostate hypertrophy)
Analysis of correlation between ED and concomitant disease and concomitant medications in patients who received Eprosartan
Score changes of Framingham 10-year Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) risk at 1st visit, 4th visit
Percentages of Eprosartan monotherapy and multiple antihypertensive therapies at enrollment and last visit
Reason for treatment discontinuation (Inadequate BP control, adverse events, others)
