Brief Summary
This research project will look at the relationship between baseline variables, and the new onset of microalbuminuria and the response to treatment with an angiotensin receptor blocker, losartan, in a cohort of 246 early hypertensives and normotensives who are being brought back for a 4-5 year follow up visit as part of a continuing project. We hypothesize that the new onset of microalbuminuria is associated with higher blood pressure levels at baseline and 1 year as well as being associated with elevated left ventricular mass index. The rate of new onset microalbuminuria in non-diabetics is not established and this prospective study will provide data.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
To determine risk factors related to the development of microalbuminuria.

Eligibility Criteria
Participants returning for a 4-5 year follow-up visit as part of an ongoing research project will be screened for microalbuminuria and invited to participate if they meet the appropriate criteria.
You may qualify if:
- participation in the Double Exposure study
- elevated microalbuminuria
