title: [Possible reverse development of myocardial hypertrophy and ischemia in patients with hypertension after short-term antihypertensive therapy].
abstract: The effects of short-term antihypertensive therapy were assessed using echo- and electrocardiography, in patients with first- or second-stage essential hypertension, with respect to possible reverse development of left-ventricular hypertrophy and myocardial ischemia. A reduction of left-ventricular hypertrophy was found to be possible, with regard to the hemodynamic type, in patients with mild or moderate essential hypertension provided their blood pressure was controlled effectively. Reverse development of electrocardiographic signs of myocardial ischemia (ST segment and T wave reaching their normal values) is possible through a decrease of arterial BP and a reduction of adrenergic effects on the heart.
