Rilmenidine 51-62 adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing Homo sapiens 80-91 16280284-4 2005 The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of 6 months of antihypertensive therapy with rilmenidine on plasma adiponectin concentration in patients with essential hypertension. Rilmenidine 93-104 adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing Homo sapiens 115-126 16280284-7 2005 However after 6 months of treatment with rilmenidine a significant increase in plasma adiponectin concentration (from 12.5 +/- 6.1 to 16.9 +/- 11.1; P = .0002) was observed. Rilmenidine 41-52 adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing Homo sapiens 86-97 16280284-8 2005 CONCLUSIONS: Antihypertensive therapy with rilmenidine correlates with an increase of plasma adiponectin concentration without any significant changes of insulin sensitivity and body fat content in patients with essential hypertension. Rilmenidine 43-54 adiponectin, C1Q and collagen domain containing Homo sapiens 93-104
