Similar results have been reported with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors; however, CCBs diminish CIMT progression more than diuretics, beta-blockers, or ACE inhibitors [58, 64].Antihypertensives were associated with a decreased incidence of ipsilateral stroke or transient ischemic attack (p = 0.01) and mortality from stroke or CVD (p = 0.0001). The gene discussed is ACE; the disease is transient ischemic attack.
