Seasonal variation of fibrinogen in dipper and nondipper hypertensive patients.
BACKGROUND A seasonal variation with higher values in winter has been previously reported in plasma fibrinogen, a recognized marker of the potential risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. The lack of nocturnal decline in blood pressure has also been associated with an increase in cardiovascular events. Accordingly, we have compared the yearly variation of plasma fibrinogen in dipper and nond...
متن کاملSphingomyelin levels in nondipper and dipper hypertensive patients
A number of studies have focused on the association between sphingomyelin (SM) levels and atherosclerosis, however, there are few data concerning the correlation of SM with nondipper hypertension. The present study aimed to investigate the correlation between plasma SM levels and nondipper status in patients with hypertension. A total of 200 hypertensive patients were enrolled and divided into ...
متن کاملQT dispersion in dipper- and nondipper-type hypertension.
The aim of this study was to identify the relationship of QT dispersion on 12-lead electrocardiograms and left ventricular mass index on echocardiograms associated with the circadian rhythm of blood pressure (BP). Heart rate and BP were monitored every 30 min for 48 h in 62 patients with essential hypertension using an ambulatory BP monitoring device. The patients were divided into four groups ...
متن کاملNon-Dipper and Inappropriate Left Ventricular Mass in Hypertensive Patients
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) provides a lot of information on diurnal blood pressure (BP) profiles. In most of the population, night time BP values are 10-20% lower than day time BP values (dipper), whereas in the minority of the population, the nocturnal BP decrease is blunted or even absent (non-dipper). The non-dipper phenotype has been shown to be highly prevalent in various ...
متن کاملRole of insulin resistance in nondipper essential hypertensive patients.
In hypertensive patients, diminished nocturnal blood pressure (BP) fall is associated with poor prognosis for cardiovascular events. However, the relation of insulin resistance with the etiology of nondipper essential hypertension remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to assess the role of insulin resistance in diminished nocturnal BP fall, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and in...
