“…Previous research from our laboratory has indicated that nondipping BP status is observable in normotensive black adolescents. 2,3 Previous research has not been consistent in defining nondipping BP status. Regardless of the definitional differences of past studies, nondipping status has been consistently associated with the development and progression of end-organ disease such as stroke 4,5 and left ventricular hypertrophy.…”

“…22 Little is actually known about the pathophysiology leading to a reduced nocturnal fall in BP in hypertensives and mostly in normotensives, but advanced age and African-American ethnicity may be demographic markers for non-dippers. 23 In addition, there are data to suggest that hypertensive patients who are salt sensitive are more likely to be non-dippers than patients who are salt resistant. 24 Our results are in contrast with those observed by Minniti et al, 7 who in only one out of seven acromegalics with hypertension observed the absence of the physiological night-time decrease of BP, but they are in agreement with those observed by Terzolo et al, 8 who in five out of seven defined as hypertensives by ABPM found a non-dipper, altered night-day ratio for BP.…”
