Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Effects of Pioglitazone on Renal Hemodynamics

    At the end of each treatment diet phase, renal clearances were performed for the determination of GFR and RBF

    2008

  • Effects of Pioglitazone on Sodium and Lithium Clearances

    At the end of each treatment and diet phase, 24 urine collections were collected for the determination of sodium and lithium clearances

    2007

  • Effects of Pioglitazone on 24h Blood Pressure Control

    24 hour blood pressure measurements were performed after each treatment/diet phase

    march 2009

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Effects of Pioglitazone on Salt Sensitivity

    2009

Limitations and Caveats

The sample size may seem small but the cross over design of the study increased the statistical power. Each of 16 individuals was examined 4 times after the 4 different phases (pioglitazone-low salt, and high salt, placebo low salt and high salt).
