The article offers a study on the effects of alogliptin on blood pressure and arterial stiffness in hypertensive patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Topics discussed include Blood pressure and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) were measured before and after 3, 6, and 12 months of treatment with alogliptin in 22 hypertensive patients with T2DM; and concludes that alogliptin was associated with improvements not only in glucose metabolism.
