Abstract

Makani and colleagues report that dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system is associated with harm despite previous studies showing that this approach decreases blood pressure and albuminuria. Do these results imply that we should abandon surrogate markers? Or should we become more creative in using them? Lambers Heerspink, H. J. & de Zeeuw, D. Nat. Rev. Endocrinol. 9, 261-263 (2013); published online 26 March 2013; doi:10.1038/nrendo.2013.65
