Evaluation of atrial electromechanical properties in patients with masked hypertension
Purpose In this study, we evaluated the electromechanical properties of atriums in patients with masked hypertension by using tissue Doppler echocardiographic technique to predict the predisposition to atrial arrhythmias.

How common is isolated nocturnal hypertension? [PDF]
The growing use of methods to measure blood pressure (BP) under everyday life conditions in ‘out-of-office’ settings, through either 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) or home BP monitoring (HBPM), for defining BP status has led to identification of ...

Masked Hypertension: A Review [PDF]
Masked hypertension is defined as a normal blood pressure (BP) in the clinic or office (135/85 mmHg). It may occur in as many as 10% of the general population, and is important because it is not diagnosed by routine medical examinations, but carries an adverse prognosis, both in terms of increased target organ damage and cardiovascular events. Possible

Total methylated arginine load as a risk parameter in subjects with masked hypertension
Asymmetric dimethylarginine, symmetric dimethylarginine, and L-monomethylarginine are originated from the subsequent proteolytic catalysis of methylated arginine residues on different proteins and inhibit the endogenous nitric oxide generation.

The Childhood Role in Development of Primary Hypertension. [PDF]
Primary hypertension is not just an adult disorder. Current US population data on children and adolescents demonstrate a prevalence of elevated blood pressure (BP) and hypertension combined of over 10%.

Masked Hypertension in Treated Hypertensive Patients [PDF]
We read with interest the Critique article by Clement regarding our article and we are grateful for his comments. However, some aspects need to be clarified to avoid confusion. Clement states that the population we studied may be different from that seen in regular hypertension clinics, and that we come up with a very high prevalence of masked ...

BackgroundStudies consisting mostly of whites have shown that the prevalence of masked hypertension differs by prehypertension status. Using data from the Jackson Heart Study, an exclusively African American population‐based cohort, we evaluated the ...

Short-term variability and nocturnal decline in ambulatory blood pressure in normotension, white-coat hypertension, masked hypertension and sustained hypertension: A population-based study of older individuals in Spain [PDF]
Blood pressure (BP) variability and nocturnal decline in blood pressure are associated with cardiovascular outcomes. However, little is known about whether these indexes are associated with white-coat and masked hypertension.
