Improving the detection of preclinical organ damage in newly diagnosed hypertension: nocturnal hypertension versus non-dipping pattern

Abstract: The clinical relevance of nocturnal hypertension (NH) in comparison with non-dipping status has not been clarified yet, as regards subclinical target organ damage. We aimed to elucidate whether NH or dipping status reflects better organ damage. The study population included 319 newly diagnosed hypertensive patients. Subclinical organ damage was evaluated to all participants. On the basis of nocturnal blood pressure (BP) levels the population was divided into two groups: NH and nocturnal normotension. Also, ind… Show more

“…Publication bias was assessed by using the funnel plot method. Table 1 [ [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] shows the main characteristics of analyzed studies, including clinical setting, sample size, mean age, sex distribution, mean BMI, office SBP and DBP, mean 24 h, daytime and night-time BP values in nondipping individuals.…”

“…After the initial screening of titles and abstracts, 190 studies were excluded as they did not address the relation of nondipping with carotid damage and 70 were reviewed; of these, 13 studies fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria and contained sufficient clinical and carotid ultrasonographic data to be included in the final review [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] (Fig. 1).…”

“…11 Comparisons between nocturnal hypertension and non-dipping status is sparse in the medical literature. 4,9 Androulakis et al found a stronger association of nocvascular target organ damage, thereby highlighting the importance of establishing dipping status to guide stratification in an intrinsically high-risk population for the consequences of hypertension. The Black race is independently associated with higher levels of target end organ damage in hypertensives; 34,35 thus, targeting non-dipper normotensives may help early targeted therapy and appropriate lifestyle modification.…”
