Figure 2 Adjusted geometric mean AER from baseline to week 20 (excluding patients with AER below 20 μg/min (randomized patients)).*Indicates adjusted geometric mean ratio (±s.e.). Treatment difference (ratio of adjusted geometric mean ratios)=0.922 (95% CI 0.711–1.195; P=0.54).

Figure 4 Mean change in blood pressure from baseline at 20 weeks. Adjusted mean change from baseline to week 20 in trough (a) SeDBP and (b) SeSBP. Mean baseline blood pressures measurements were 162.9/89.9 and 163.3/89.3 for the ramipril plus irbesartan and ramipril plus placebo groups, respectively.
