Pattern of urinary proteins at baseline and after uptitration of ramipril dose [angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE-I)], combined treatment [ACE-I + angiotensin II AT1 receptor (ARA)] and irbesartan alone (ARA) at sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis
| Baseline | ACE-I | ACE-I + ARA | ARA | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VLMW number | 4 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| LMW number | 6 | 8 | 8 | 7 |
| GLOM number | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 |
| PHYS number | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Score | 1.60 0.52 | 2.100.74a

The values are meanSD. Abbreviations are: VLMW, very low-molecular-weight pattern; LMW, low-molecular-weight pattern; GLOM, glomerular pattern; PHYS, physiologic pattern. The score assigned at each pattern was as following: VLMW = 1, LMW = 2, GLOM = 3, PHYS = 4.
