Silent cerebral white matter lesions in middle-aged essential hypertensive patients

OBJECTIVE : Age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus and a history of cardiovascular disease are the most important factors related to the presence of cerebral white matter lesions (WML), which are a common finding in elderly people. This study investigates which factors related to hypertension per se are associated with the presence of WML in asymptomatic, middle-aged, never-treated essential hypertensive patients. METHODS : A total of 66 untreated essential hypertensive patients of both genders, aged 50-60 years, with neither diabetes mellitus nor evidence of cardiovascular disease, were studied. Hypertensive patients were classified into two groups according to the presence or absence of WML in brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). RESULTS : A total of 39 (59.1%) hypertensives showed no WML in brain MRI, and 27 (40.9%) exhibited the presence of WML. Compared with hypertensives without WML, patients with WML showed significantly higher values of both office and 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) systolic, diastolic, mean and pulse pressure. No differences were observed in either the nocturnal fall of blood pressure, or in blood pressure variability, assessed by 24 h standard deviation, among hypertensives with WML. In contrast, the nocturnal decline of heart rate was significantly blunted in patients with WML, compared with those without WML. CONCLUSIONS : Cerebral white matter lesions are a common finding in asymptomatic middle-aged essential hypertensives. The severity of blood pressure elevation seems to be the most important factor related to the presence of WML. Neither the circadian rhythm nor the long-term variability of blood pressure were related to WML.     

Reproducibility of ambulatory blood pressure measurements in essential hypertension

BACKGROUND: Data on the reproducibility of serial measurements of ambulatory blood pressure in hypertensive patients are lacking. The purpose of this study was to examine (1) the reproducibility of four consecutive ambulatory blood pressure measurements, and (2) the reproducibility of nocturnal falls in blood pressure in hypertensive patients. METHODS: Twenty patients with mild to moderate essential hypertension underwent four separate ambulatory blood pressure monitorings, on the same day of the week, at 30-day intervals. Antihypertensive therapy was discontinued for 2 weeks before each recording. Comparing the mean values of blood pressure over 24h, as well as diurnal, nocturnal and hourly periods, among the four recordings determined the reproducibility of blood pressure measurements. A day/night difference in mean systolic and in mean diastolic blood pressure defined the nocturnal fall in blood pressure. RESULTS: No significant differences were observed in either hourly, 24-h, diurnal or nocturnal systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate, or in the nocturnal fall in systolic and diastolic blood pressure among the four recordings. CONCLUSIONS: Hourly systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, and nocturnal fall in blood pressure were reproducible in four ambulatory blood pressure monitorings recorded over 4 months. These findings suggest that ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is a reliable tool to monitor blood pressure changes.     

A pressure-time index' for assessing the severity of essential hypertension.

OBJECTIVE: A new derivative of 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is introduced and its association with left ventricular mass index (LVMI) in essential hypertension is examined. PATIENT: population One hundred and fifty-three previously untreated essential hypertension patients. METHODS: Patients underwent casual blood pressure (BP) readings, 24 h ABPM and left ventricular echocardiographic assessment The following 24 h awake and sleep ABP variables were calculated: mean systolic and diastolic BP, systolic and diastolic BP loads (percentage of systolic readings > 140/120 mmHg (day/ night) and diastolic readings > 90/80 mmHg (day/night)), standard deviation of systolic and diastolic ABP and nocturnal fall of systolic BP, as well as the integrated areas under the ABP curve. The area under the BP curve divided in horizontal slices was accurately modelled by a sigmoid curve. The parameters controlling the shape of the curve and in particular that regarding its 'slope' is hereafter called the 'pressure-time index'. RESULTS: 'Systolic pressure-time index 24 h' (SPTI24) is related to left ventricular mass index (multivariate analysis, P= 0.008). Using either partial correlation coefficients or a multivariate analysis, SPTI24 is related to left ventricular mass index, independently of age, casual blood pressure, mean systolic and diastolic ABP, systolic and diastolic BP loads, BP variability (standard deviation (SD), nocturnal fall of systolic BP) and integrated area under the curve (multivariate analysis, P= 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: In essential hypertension, the SPTI24 is related to LVMI independently of age, casual blood pressure, integrated area under the curve or any other derivative of 24 h ABPM, and might be used to assess the extent of hypertensive load.

Ambulatory blood pressure, asymptomatic cerebrovascular damage and cognitive function in essential hypertension

Prolonged exposure to elevated blood pressure (BP) can lead to both structural (white matter lesions (WML) or infarctions) and functional changes in the brain. We studied in previously diagnosed essential hypertensive individuals if diurnal BP variation and ambulatory BP (ABP) profile (daytime, night time and 24-h BP averages) were related to evidence of WML, the presence of 'silent' infarcts, and cognitive performance. A group of 86 patients (mean age 57.4+/-10 years, range 40-80) were first screened for hypertension-related organ damage and underwent 24-h ABP monitoring, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, and a comprehensive neurocognitive assessment. Age and ABP profile were related to more periventricular, but not subcortical, WML and to presence of lacunar infarctions on MRI. After correction for demographical group differences, no association was found between night time dipping of BP on the one hand and both WML load and cognitive parameters (verbal memory, sensorimotor speed, cognitive flexibility) on the other. The presence of lacunar infarctions, however, predicted lower performance on verbal memory. Furthermore, daytime and 24-h pulse pressure averages were associated with pWML, whereas systolic BP and mean arterial pressure (MAP) for daytime, night-time and 24-h periods were higher in patients with lacunar infarctions. Notwithstanding the large variability of WML in this sample, the evidence of a connection between diurnal BP variation and early target organ damage in the brain was not convincing. However, the ABP profile may be predictive of cerebral lesion type.

Abstract：

Objective To compare 24 h ambulatory blood pressure changes between patients with renovascular hypertension and essential hypertension.Methods The 24 h ambulatory blood pressure of patients with age and gender matched renovascular hypertension (RVH, n=51) was compared with that of patients with essential hypertension (EH, n=51).Results The 24 h, daytime and nighttime systolic blood pressures(SBP),diastolic blood pressures(DBP) and pulse pressures (PP) in RVH were significantly higher than in EH (all P<0.05), especially the nocturnal SBP (P<0.05). The SBP and DBP loads in RVH were 58.96% and 35.98% respectively, while blood pressure loads were around 20.00% in EH (P<0.05). In patients with RVH, The nocturnal blood pressure fall was 5.39%, and only 27.50% patients were dippers, while the nocturnal blood pressure fall was 10.36% and 60.8% patients were dippers in EH.Conclusion RVH patients have higher dynamic BP, PP, BP loads and blunted diurnal rhythm compared to those with EH.
