Losartan: An antagonist of ANGIOTENSIN TYPE 1 RECEPTOR with antihypertensive activity due to the reduced pressor effect of ANGIOTENSIN II.
losartan : A biphenylyltetrazole where a 1,1'-biphenyl group is attached at the 5-position and has an additional trisubstituted imidazol-1-ylmethyl group at the 4'-position

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Isokinetic Strength

"Isokinetic Strength was measured by knee extension exercises where bilateral knee concentric strength was measured using a Biodex System 3 dynamometer set at an angular velocity of 30deg/sec through a joint arc from 90 degrees to 30 degrees (0 degrees- full extension).~The change in strength between baseline and week 16 (i.e., baseline minus week 16) was the outcome of the analysis. A negative number indicates decrease in strength from week 0 to week 16." (NCT01989793)
Timeframe: Baseline to Week 16

A negative number indicates that there was a decrease in isokinetic strength from week 0 to week 8." (NCT01989793)

Fatiguability

"Fatiguability was tested using bilateral knee extension with an external load equal to 40% of the maximal voluntary contraction force.~Fatiguability was defined as the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the total work in the last 3 of the 10 repetitions to that of the first 3 of the 10 repetitions, where the total work for n repetitions is defined as the sum of peak torque (FT-LBS) over n repetitions (i.e., last three reps/first three reps). The maximum of the two sides was used in the analysis." (NCT01989793)
