Diuretics shift circadian rhythm of blood pressure from nondipper to dipper in essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND Recently, we found that sodium restriction shifted the circadian rhythm of blood pressure from nondipper to dipper in patients with the sodium-sensitive essential hypertension. This study examined whether diuretics can transform the circadian rhythm of blood pressure from nondipper to dipper. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 21 patients with essential hypertension during both a basel...
متن کاملارتباط ریتم شبانه‌روزی فشارخون با شدت نارسایی کلیه در بیماران نارسایی مزمن کلیه
Background: Blood pressure decreases during sleep and is markedly increased in the morning in healthy individuals. Lack of nocturnal blood pressure fall (non-dipping) has been associated with cardiovascular morbidity, mortality and other organ damage. However, their importance in chronic renal failure is unclear. This study aimed to investigate relationship between circadian rhythm of blood pre...
متن کاملEffects of chronotherapy on blood pressure control in non-dipper patients with refractory hypertension.
BACKGROUND Refractory arterial hypertension (RAH) is frequently associated to a non-dipping blood pressure (BP) pattern; this profile has been shown to have a worse clinical prognosis. It is a common clinical practice that patients receive anti-hypertensive medication preferentially in the morning. Non-dipping could be related to the timing of anti-hypertensive drug administration. We analysed ...
متن کاملRelation of red cell distribution width with dipper and non-dipper hypertension.
Aim Red cell distribution width (RDW), an index of erythrocyte size, is associated with high risk for cardiovascular disease. Nondipping hypertension (HT) is lack of nocturnal fall in blood pressure(BP). The association between RDW and non-dipping BP in normotensive and hypertensive patients was investigated. Methods A total of 170 patients were categorized into 4 groups: Normotensive-Dipper (N...
متن کاملBlood pressure circadian rhythm in essential hypertension.
1. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure show a well defined circadian variation in ambulatory hypertensive subjects. 2. Blood pressure is highest in the mid-morning (10.00 hours) and lowest during sleep at 03.00 hours. 3. Treatment with oxprenolol (taken during the day) reduces daytime blood pressure but is less effective during the night and early morning.
