abstract: Multicenter study in 10294 hypertensive patients conducted by 2000 G.P.'s throughout France. This trial permitted to compare the effectiveness and tolerance of 3 types of antihypertensive therapy: a beta-blocker, a diuretic and a central antihypertensive agent. It also permitted to study a certain number of socio-epidemiological characteristics in that patient population, in particular with regard to cardio-vascular risk factors.
