Objective sleep parameters and diurnal blood pressure in concurrent hypertension and type 2 diabetes
Abstract Background Hypertension is a primary cardiovascular complication in type 2 diabetes associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is essential for capturing circadian BP variation, which is closely influenced by sleep. Methods Twenty patients (63.75 ± 4.44 years old, 40% female, duration of T2D:
