The white coat effect is not associated with additional increase of target organ damage in true resistant hypertension.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE White coat effect (WCE) (i.e., the difference between office blood pressure [OBP] and awake ambulatory blood pressure monitoring [ABPM]) may be present in hypertensive individuals. The relationship between occurrence of WCE and target organ damage (TOD) has not yet been assessed in true resistant hypertension (RHTN). PATIENTS AND METHODS RHTN patients were divided int...
متن کاملLong-term risk in subjects with white-coat hypertension.
Long-Term Risk in Subjects With White-Coat Hypertension To the Editor: We read with great interest the article by Mancia et al1 clarifying the increased risk of developing sustained hypertension in subjects with white-coat hypertension, compared with normotensive patients, using home blood pressure measurements and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. This study was performed over a 10-year pe...
متن کاملTarget Organ Complications and Cardiovascular Events Associated With Masked Hypertension and White-Coat Hypertension: Analysis From the Dallas Heart Study.
BACKGROUND Multiple epidemiological studies from Europe and Asia have demonstrated increased cardiovascular risks associated with isolated elevation of home blood pressure (BP) or masked hypertension (MH). Previous studies have not addressed cardiovascular outcomes associated with MH and white-coat hypertension (WCH) in the general population in the United States. OBJECTIVES The goal of this ...
متن کاملAttenuation of the "white-coat effect" by antihypertensive treatment and regression of target organ damage.
This study assessed whether 2 common surrogate measures of the "white-coat effect," namely the clinic-daytime and the clinic-home differences in blood pressure (BP), were attenuated by long-term antihypertensive treatment and whether this attenuation is relevant to the treatment-induced regression of left ventricular hypertrophy, thus having clinical significance. We considered data from 206 pa...
متن کاملTarget Organ Damage in Hypertension
This special issue is related to the main concern in hyper-tensive disease: the target-organ damage. The selected papers approach some aspects of renal and cerebral disease associated to hypertension but the principal focus is on the arterial vessel as the main organ involved in hypertensive patients. Although hypertensive cardiopathy is not specifically included in this issue, the heart diseas...
