Target Organ Status in White-Coat Hypertensives: Usefulness of Serum Procollagen Type I Propeptide in the Respect of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction

Background Myocardial fibrosis is a feature of diastolic dysfunction and target organ damage, which was compared among subjects with normotension (NT), white-coat hypertension (WCH) and essential hypertension (EH). Serum procollagen type I propeptide (PIP) level was assessed as a marker of diastolic...

Zusammenfassung:	Background Myocardial fibrosis is a feature of diastolic dysfunction and target organ damage, which was compared among subjects with normotension (NT), white-coat hypertension (WCH) and essential hypertension (EH). Serum procollagen type I propeptide (PIP) level was assessed as a marker of diastolic dysfunction in WCH. Methods and Results Of 90 subjects, 30 had NT and 30 had WCH (ambulatory daytime blood pressure
