Glomerular filtration rate is related to dipping pattern in ambulatory blood pressure monitoring-a cross-sectional population-based study

A non-dipping pattern in ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. The association between renal function and the dipping pattern has not been studied in a random middle-aged population. This is a cross-sectional population-based study of 226 males and...

Zusammenfassung:A non-dipping pattern in ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. The association between renal function and the dipping pattern has not been studied in a random middle-aged population. This is a cross-sectional population-based study of 226 males and 234 females aged 40 to 62 years. Renal function was assessed with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Non-dipping status was defined as a reduction of
