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 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 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 کاملParaoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Dipper and Non-Dipper Prehypertensive Subjects
Paraoxonase-1, a high-density lipoprotein linked enzyme complex, was shown to be decreased in several cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to explore whether serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities differ in dipper and non-dipper prehypertensive subjects compared to healthy controls.Sixty prehypertensive subjects and 30 controls were enrolled. All subjects underwent echocardiographic assessm...
متن کاملEpicardial Fat Thickness and Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio are Increased in Non-Dipper Hypertensive Patients
BACKGROUND In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between echocardiographic epicardial fat thickness (EFT), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR; an important inflammatory marker), and diurnal blood pressure (BP) changes in patients with recently diagnosed essential hypertension. METHODS A total of 647 patients underwent echocardiography and 24 hours of ambulatory BP monitorin...
