Effects of White-coat Hypertension on Heart Rate Recovery and Blood Pressure Response during Exercise Test [PDF]
Objectives White-coat hypertension is defined as high blood pressure (BP) on clinical assessment but normal BP elsewhere or on ambulatory measurement. Autonomic dysfunction may be one of the mechanisms causing white-coat hypertension.

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 ...

White coat effect in patients with hypertension
The article is devoted to various aspects of white coat effect (WCE) in patients with hypertension (HTN). WCE is due to the patient’s anxious response to office blood pressure (BP) measurement and is characterized by a BP increase.

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.
