Diastolic Reverse Dipping Pattern Is the Predictor for the Echocardiographic Changes in the Untreated Masked Hypertensive Patients

The prognostic value of the dipping categories of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the association between DBP dipping categories of diastolic blood pressure and echocardiographic changes in untreated masked hypertension (MH) patients.

Zusammenfassung:The prognostic value of the dipping categories of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the association between DBP dipping categories of diastolic blood pressure and echocardiographic changes in untreated masked hypertension (MH) patients. This retrospective study included 721 untreated MH patients between June 2006 and June 2016. Nocturnal dipping categories were defined according to the percentage decrease in nocturnal blood pressure (BP) compared to daytime BP as follows: non-dipping: decrease 0% to
