dc.description.abstractBackground: Endothelial dysfunction has been reported in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and even in healthy obese individuals with a normal metabolic profile. Sympathetic activity commonly is increased in obese hypertensive patients, and moxonidine is effective in lowering BP and improving insulin sensitivity. Objective: To evaluate the effect of moxonidine on endothelial dysfunction in patients with metabolic syndrome. Methods: Twenty-six patients with mild hypertension were treated with moxonidine and a hypocaloric diet for 3 months, while a second normotensive group (n = 26) were followed-up with calorie restriction alone. Anthropometric (body mass index, waist and hip circumferences, and waist-to-hip ratio) and metabolic features (fasting plasma glucose and insulin, aminotransferases, ?-glutamyl transpeptidase, triglycerides, and cholesterol levels) and flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) were evaluated. Insulin resistance was calculated by using the homeostasis model assessment formula. Insulin sensitivity was calculated according to the quantitative insulin-sensitivity check index (QUICKI). Results: SBP and DBP (both p < 0.001) and waist circumference (p = 0.02) were higher, and QUICKI (p = 0.043) and FMD (p = 0.01) were lower in the hypertensive group at baseline. After 3 months, nearly all the study parameters improved in both treatment groups. The decrease in BP, increase in FMD, and improvements in metabolic and anthropometric parameters were significantly greater in the moxonidine-treated group than in those treated with diet alone. Conclusion: Moxonidine is proposed as a valuable option for treating mild-to-moderate hypertension in obese and insulin-resistant patients with metabolic syndrome as it appears to improve endothelial dysfunction in these patients. © 2006 Adis Data Information BV.
