“…2,6 We previously evaluated the most appropriate competing-risks methodology for analyzing this kind of data 11 and, on the basis of that evaluation, used Fine and Gray models for the current analysis, as has been proposed by others. 13 The limitations of the study include our inability to control for important predictors of end-stage renal disease and death without end-stage renal disease, such as glycemic, blood pressure and lipid control, and related changes in medical practice, such as the introduction of angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors, 30 that occurred during the course of the study period. However, these factors would not have affected the difference in age of diabetes onset between First Nations and non-First Nations people.…”

“…The patients comprise the entire treatment group in a non-randomized controlled trial of matched hypertensive IDDM patients with nephropathy treated with captopril and frusemide or bendrofluazide [16]. All patients fulfilled the following inclusion criteria: age under 50, persistent albuminuria (> 300 mg/day), a serum creatinine concentration less than 120 p.mol/1, no oedema, diagnosis of hypertension, but not receiving antihypertensive treatment (including diuretics), development of diabetes before the age of 31, and not blind.…”

“…[Diabetologia (1994) Abbreviations: IDDM, Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus blood pressure and development and progression of diabetic glomerulopathy [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Several studies [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] have demonstrated that the rate of decline in glomerular filtration rate can be reduced by antihypertensive treatment. However the beneficial effect of antihypertensive treatment on the progression of the diabetic nephropathy is highly variable.…”

“…In the 1980s, several small, short-term studies in patients who had diabetic nephropathy with and without hyper-tension (10,11) showed a slower rate of decline of renal function when treatment with an ACEI, captopril, was given. In the study that was conducted by Lewis et al (12) in patients with established diabetic nephropathy, treatment with captopril reduced by 50% the risk for doubling serum creatinine, although BP control was similar in both groups.…”
