Inflammation and Nocturnal Pattern of Blood Pressure in Normotensives
2021
Abstract Background: In most healthy individuals, blood pressure (BP) shows a circadian rhythm. Being non-dipper increases cardiovascular risk in normotensive and hypertensive individuals. Nocturnal dipping shows a correlation with the state of inflammation. Objetive: To investigate the relationship between inflammation-based indexes and nocturnal BP pattern in normotensive individuals. Method: This is a retrospective study that included patients evaluated with ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). A total of 131 normotensive individuals were included and grouped as dippers and non-dippers. The normality of [...]
