Circadian Blood Pressure Rhythm Is Disturbed by Nephrectomy

Abstract: We recently illustrated a close relationship between glomerular filtration rate and circadian rhythm of blood pressure (BP) in patients with chronic kidney disease. However, it remains undetermined from such crosssectional findings which occurs first, the loss of kidney function or the lack of nocturnal BP fall. In the present study, we examined whether circadian rhythm of BP is affected by unilateral nephrectomy for kidney donation to clarify this important issue. Fifteen healthy subjects (4 men, 11 women; ag… Show more

“…30,[32][33][34]37 RENAL DYSFUNCTION AND NON-DIPPER CIRCADIAN RHYTHMS Because glomerular filtration capability is one of the major factors determining salt sensitivity, 7,24,28,36 the nocturnal dip in BP may be less pronounced as a function of GFR loss. We recently showed this quantitative relationship in CKD 38,39 and healthy donors after nephrectomy, 40 in both of whom there was an inverse relationship between GFR and the night/day ratio of BP. These findings are compatible with high salt sensitivity of BP in glomerulopathy, even when GFR is maintained at a relatively normal level, 41,42 ultimately becoming much higher as renal function deteriorates.…”

“…[47][48][49][50][51][52] Because the degree of non-dipping was closely correlated with the degree of renal function loss, as discussed above, 38,40 however, non-dipping might be consequently correlated with the progression of nephropathy. Our clear results especially obtained after kidney donation 40 that instead it might be a phenotype of renal functional loss, together with well known facts that in patients with renal dysfunction the nocturnal BP dip is lost and circadian rhythms manifest as those of non-dippers, 38,40,47,50,53,54 suggest that the circadian rhythm of BP is determined mostly by the kidneys. The importance of kidneys in the genesis of circadian BP rhythm is consistent with reports that the circadian rhythm of BP is normalized from non-dipper to dipper after kidney transplantation, 55 and also by salt intake restriction and diuretics.…”

“…[1][2][3] Because glomerular filtration capability is one of the major factors determining sodium sensitivity, 4,5 as a function of loss of glomerular filtration rate, the nocturnal dip in BP may be less pronounced. We recently illustrated this quantitative relationship in CKD 6 and healthy donors after unilateral nephrectomy, 7 where in fact there was an inverse relationship between glomerular filtration rate and the night: day ratio of BP. Therefore, we have postulated that reduced renal capacity to excrete sodium into urine causes nocturnal elevation of BP, ie, nondippers, to compensate for diminished daytime natriuresis by enhancing pressure natriuresis during sleep.…”

“…[4][5][6] Specifically, left ventricular hypertrophy, microalbuminuria, carotid intima-media thickening, cerebrovascular events and renal impairment are more prominent in nondippers than in dippers.
