Abstract
Renal denervation (RDN) is effective in lowering blood pressure (BP) in patients with hypertension. The issue remains how to best identify potential responders. Ambulatory BP monitoring may be useful. Baseline nighttime systolic BP (SBP) ≥136 mm Hg and its variability (SD) ≥12 mm Hg in DENER-HTN trial or 24-hour heart rate ≥73.5 bpm in SPYRAL HTN-OFF MED Trial were shown to predict the BP response to RDN. We applied these criteria to the patients with hypertension in the sham-controlled RADIANCE-HTN SOLO trial to predict the BP response to ultrasound RDN at 2 months while patients were maintained off medications. BP responders were defined as: clinical with 24-hour SBP <130 mm Hg (RDN: 22/64 versus sham: 7/58); meaningful with 24-hour SBP reduction ≥10 mm Hg (RDN: 24/64, sham: 7/58); and extreme with 24-hour SBP reduction above mean+2 SD of the SBP decrease in the sham group, that is, ≥16.5 mm Hg (RDN: 10/64 versus sham: 2/58). The predictive criteria reported above were tested for sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values. The predictive value varied according to the definition of response, with the clinical definition being strongly influenced by regression to the mean. Baseline nighttime SBP and its variability, especially when combined, offered good specificity (>90% irrespective of definition) but low sensitivity (from 9.1% to 30% depending on the definition) to predict responders; the heart rate criterion had insufficient predictive value. This analysis suggests the potential role of nighttime SBP and its variability to predict BP response to RDN in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pheochromocytoma is a rare disease, which may manifest as severe cardiac complications. Apart from these situations, the "chronic" cardiac impact is not clearly defined. A cardiac MRI study suggests that these patients are carrying areas of fibrosis and foci of left ventricular myocarditis. Since these abnormalities are usually associated with altered left ventricular longitudinal systolic strain, we hypothesize that this strain is altered in patients with a "chronic" pheochromocytoma. METHOD This retrospective case-control study was performed using patients from the Bordeaux University Hospital database, included between 2008 and 2016. We compared the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS), radial and circumferential systolic strain and classic echocardiographic parameters between patients with pheochromocytoma and controls matched for age, sex, body mass index and systolic blood pressure. RESULTS The analysis included 47 patients and 47 correctly matched controls. There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in terms of GLS (-20.7±2.4% vs. -20.2±2.7%, P=0.40), radial strain, left ventricular mass or diastolic function. Left ventricular ejection fraction and circumferential strain were significantly higher in patients than in controls, with a significantly lower telediastolic diameter. CONCLUSION No significant changes in GLS were observed in our pheochromocytoma patients, compared with controls. Several hypotheses may explain these results. The presence of fibrosis foci and areas of left ventricular myocarditis being associated with a poor cardiological prognosis, a systematic cardiac MRI could be discussed in these patients, until further studies are performed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recurrent vasovagal syncope (VVS) is associated with decreased quality-of-life and frequent use of emergency services. The evidence base for causality, diagnostic procedures and potential VVS treatments is poor. Scattered observations in the literature suggest a link between respiratory disturbances during sleep and VVS. Empirical observations lead us to further hypothesise that the appropriate management of sleep apnoea syndrome (SAS) may help resolve comorbid recurrent VVS in certain patients. We therefore designed this pilot study to provide a framework for the observation of changes in outcomes accompanying the deployment of SAS treatments in patients with VVS. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a multicentre, registry-based study whose primary objective is to evaluate the effect of SAS management on the number of syncope/presyncope episodes in a population suffering from both VVS and SAS. To this effect, syncope rates prior to the treatment of SAS will be compared with those occurring after the initiation of the latter. In addition, yearly assessments will collect data for echocardiography, polysomnography, Holter monitoring, table tilt tests, multiple sleep latency tests, SAS management parameters and questionnaires describing fatigue, depression and quality-of-life. Sixty patients will be included with a minimum follow-up period of 12 months. The primary analysis will use comparisons of centrality for paired data to describe the changes in syncope rates before versus after the initiation of SAS management. Longitudinal data will be analysed using mixed models with patients set as a random effect. Subgroup analyses will be performed for SAS-treatment adherence and efficacy. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The VVS-SAS registry was approved by an ethics committee (Comité pour la Protection des Personnes Ile-de-France VI, Reference number CPP/2-18) in accordance with French law. The princeps publication will present before-after SAS management results and longitudinal analyses. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04294524. Pre-results.

Abstract
Background and Aims Surgery for pheochromocytoma (PCC) can cause excessive catecholamine release with severe hypertension. Alpha blockade is the mainstay of preoperative management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of intra-venous (IV) urapidil, a competitive short acting α1 receptor antagonist, in the prevention of peri-operative hemodynamic instability of patients with PCC. Material and Methods This retrospective observational study included 75 patients (79 PCC) for PCC removal surgery from 2001 to 2017 at the Bordeaux University Hospital. They received, 3 days before surgery, continuous intravenous infusion of urapidil with stepwise increase to the maximum tolerated dose. Urapidil was maintained during the procedure and stopped after clamping the adrenal vein. Plasma catecholamine concentrations were measured during surgery. Hypertensive peaks (SAP >160 mmHg) and tachycardia >100 beats/min were treated with boluses of nicardipine 2 mg and esmolol 0.5 mg/kg. Results We recorded 20/79 (25%) cases with systolic arterial pressure (SAP) >180 mmHg. Only 11/79 (14%) had hypotension with SAP <80 mmHg. Peaks of catecholamine secretions were observed preferentially during peritoneal insufflation and tumor dissection (P < 0.05). A correlation was found between tumor size (mm) and the highest norepinephrine levels [r = 0.288, P = 0.015], and between hypertensive peaks (mmHg) and the highest norepinephrine levels [r = 0.45, P = 0.017]. No mortality was reported. The median [range] postoperative hospital stay was 4 [2-9] days. Conclusion IV urapidil limits hypertensive and hypotensive peaks during PCC surgery, and corresponds to surgical imperatives allowing a short hospital stay, due to its "on-off" effect.

Abstract
Clinic-ambulatory blood pressure (BP) difference is influenced by patients- and device-related factors and inadequate clinic-BP measurement. We investigated whether nonadherence to antihypertensive medications may also influence this difference in a post hoc analysis of the DENERHTN trial (Renal Denervation for Hypertension). We pooled the data of 77 out of 106 evaluable patients with apparent resistant hypertension who received a standardized antihypertensive treatment and had both ambulatory BP and drug-screening results available at baseline after 1 month of standardized triple therapy and at 6 months on a median of 5 antihypertensive drugs. After drug assay samplings on study visits, patients took their antihypertensive treatment under supervision immediately after the start of the ambulatory BP recording, and supine clinic BP was measured 24 hours post-dosing; both allowed to calculate the clinic minus daytime ambulatory systolic BP (SBP) difference (clinic-SBP–day-SBP). A total of 29 (37.7%) were found nonadherent to medications at baseline and 38 (49.4%) at 6 months. At baseline, the mean clinic-SBP–day-SBP difference in the nonadherent group was 12.7 mm Hg (95% CI, 7.8–17.7 mm Hg,
P
<0.001). In contrast, clinic SBP was almost identical to day-SBP in the adherent group (clinic-SBP–day-SBP difference, 0.1 mm Hg; 95% CI, −3.3 to 3.5 mm Hg;
P
=0.947). Similar observations were made at 6 months. Using receiver operating characteristics curves, we found that a 6 mm Hg cutoff of clinic-SBP–day-SBP difference had 67% sensitivity and 69% specificity to predict nonadherence to the triple therapy at baseline. In conclusion, a large clinic-SBP–day-SBP difference may help discriminating between adherence and nonadherence to treatment in patients with resistant hypertension.

Abstract
Malignant hypertension has not disappeared, it has been forgotten. Its incidence is increasing again. It considerably worsens the prognosis of young patients (35 to 55 years old on average). There might be susceptibility factors, several hypotheses are under study. New diagnostic criteria and therapeutic options have been proposed and will have to be validated. Faced with these important challenges for patients, the first prospective multicentric register on this pathology will be set up in France in September 2019.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The multicenter, international, randomized, blinded, sham-controlled RADIANCE-HTN SOLO trial (A Study of the ReCor Medical Paradise System in Clinical Hypertension) demonstrated a 6.3 mm Hg greater reduction in daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure (BP) at 2 months by endovascular ultrasound renal denervation (RDN) compared with a sham procedure among patients not treated with antihypertensive medications. We report 6-month results after the addition of a recommended standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment to the randomized endovascular procedure under continued blinding to initial treatment. METHODS Patients with a daytime ambulatory BP ≥135/85 mm Hg and <170/105 mm Hg after a 4-week discontinuation of up to 2 antihypertensive medications, and a suitable renal artery anatomy, were randomized to RDN (n=74) or sham (n=72). Patients were to remain off antihypertensive medications throughout the first 2 months of follow-up unless safety BP criteria were exceeded. Between 2 and 5 months, if monthly measured home BP was ≥135/85 mm Hg, a standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment was recommended consisting of the sequential addition of amlodipine (5 mg/d), a standard dose of an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker, and hydrochlorothiazide (12.5 mg/d), followed by the sequential uptitration of hydrochlorothiazide (25 mg/d) and amlodipine (10 mg/d). Outcomes included the 6-month (1) change in daytime ambulatory systolic BP adjusted for medications and baseline systolic BP, (2) medication burden, and (3) safety. RESULTS A total of 69/74 RDN patients and 71/72 sham patients completed the 6-month ambulatory BP measurement. At 6 months, 65.2% of patients in the RDN group were treated with the standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment versus 84.5% in the sham group (P=0.008), and the average number of antihypertensive medications and defined daily dose were less in the RDN group than in the sham group (0.9±0.9 versus 1.3±0.9, P=0.010 and 1.4±1.5 versus 2.0±1.8, P=0.018; respectively). Despite less intensive standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment, RDN reduced daytime ambulatory systolic BP to a greater extent than sham (-18.1±12.2 versus -15.6±13.2 mm Hg, respectively; difference adjusted for baseline BP and number of medications: -4.3 mm Hg, 95% confidence interval, -7.9 to -0.6, P=0.024). There were no major adverse events in either group through 6 months. CONCLUSIONS The BP-lowering effect of endovascular ultrasound RDN was maintained at 6 months with less prescribed antihypertensive medications compared with a sham control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Primary hyperaldosteronism is the leading cause of secondary hypertension, and leads to frequent cardiovascular complications. Many studies have studied left ventricular geometry and function in this population, but longitudinal systolic function is still poorly described. METHODS We studied 35 hypertensive patients with primary aldosteronism, and 35 with essential hypertension matched for age, sex, body mass index, and 24h blood pressure. Patients benefited from an echocardiography to measure the mass and the geometry of the left ventricle, left ventricle ejection fraction, systolic longitudinal, circumferential, and radial strain, and diastolic function. RESULTS Compared to essential hypertensive patients, patients with primary aldosteronism presented a significantly higher left ventricular mass index and relative wall thickness (60.3±16.1g/m2 vs 47.3±18.6, P=0.003, and 0.44±0.08 vs 0.36±0.06, P=0.00005, respectively), as well as a significantly reduced longitudinal systolic strain (-17.8±3,4 vs -20.3±3,6%, P=0.004). There were no significant differences in the other parameters. CONCLUSIONS Primary aldosteronism is associated with a deterioration of longitudinal systolic function of the left ventricle compared with essential hypertensive patients. This marker of cardiac damage, reproducible and easily available in routine could help for the screening of these patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Hypertensive emergencies are those situations where very high blood pressure (BP) values are associated with acute organ damage, and therefore, require immediate, but careful, BP reduction. The type of acute organ damage is the principal determinant of: (i) the drug of choice, (ii) the target BP, and (iii) the timeframe in which BP should be lowered. Key target organs are the heart, retina, brain, kidneys, and large arteries. Patients who lack acute hypertension-mediated end organ damage do not have a hypertensive emergency and can usually be treated with oral BP-lowering agents and usually discharged after a brief period of observation.

Abstract
Background Central blood pressure (BP) is a promising marker to identify subjects with higher cardiovascular risk than expected by traditional risk factors. Significant results have been obtained in populations with high cardiovascular risk, but little is known about low‐cardiovascular‐risk patients, although the differences between central and peripheral BP (amplification) are usually greater in this population. The study aim was to evaluate central BP over 24 hours for cardiovascular event prediction in hypertensive subjects with low cardiovascular risk. Methods and Results Peripheral and central BPs were recorded during clinical visits and over 24 hours in hypertensive patients with low cardiovascular risk (Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation ≤5%). Our primary end point is the occurrence of a cardiovascular event during follow‐up. To assess the potential interest in central pulse pressure over 24 hours, we performed Cox proportional hazard models analysis and comparison of area under the curves using the contrast test for peripheral and central BP. A cohort of 703 hypertensive subjects from Bordeaux were included. After the first 24 hours of BP measurement, the subjects were then followed up for an average of 112.5±70 months. We recorded 65 cardiovascular events during follow‐up. Amplification was found to be significantly associated with cardiovascular events when added to peripheral 24‐hour pulse pressure (P=0.0259). The area under the curve of 24‐hour central pulse pressure is significantly more important than area under the curve of office BP (P=0.0296), and there is a trend of superiority with the area under the curve of peripheral 24‐hour pulse pressure. Conclusions Central pulse pressure over 24 hours improves the prediction of cardiovascular events for hypertensive patients with low cardiovascular risk compared to peripheral pulse pressure.

Abstract
Background The DENERHTN (Renal Denervation for Hypertension) trial confirmed the efficacy of renal denervation (RDN) in lowering daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure when added to standardized stepped‐care antihypertensive treatment (SSAHT) for resistant hypertension at 6 months. Methods and Results This post hoc exploratory analysis assessed the impact of abdominal aortic calcifications (AAC) on the hemodynamic and renal response to RDN at 6 months. In total, 106 patients with resistant hypertension were randomly assigned to RDN plus SSAHT or to the same SSAHT alone (control group). Total AAC volume was measured, with semiautomatic software and blind to randomization, from the aortic hiatus to the iliac bifurcation using the prerandomization noncontrast abdominal computed tomography scans of 90 patients. Measurements were expressed as tertiles. The baseline‐adjusted difference in the change in daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure from baseline to 6 months between the RDN and control groups was −10.1 mm Hg (P=0.0462) in the lowest tertile and −2.5 mm Hg (P=0.4987) in the 2 highest tertiles of AAC volume. Estimated glomerular filtration rate remained stable at 6 months for the patients in the lowest tertile of AAC volume who underwent RDN (+2.5 mL/min per 1.73 m2) but decreased in the control group (−8.0 mL/min per 1.73 m2, P=0.0148). In the 2 highest tertiles of AAC volume, estimated glomerular filtration rate decreased similarly in the RDN and control groups (P=0.2640). Conclusions RDN plus SSAHT resulted in a larger decrease in daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure than SSAHT alone in patients with a lower AAC burden than in those with a higher AAC burden. This larger decrease in daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure was not associated with a decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate.

Abstract
Several studies indicate a potential link between orthostatic hypotension (OH) and incident dementia but without substantial evidence to date. Our objective is to study the association between OH and dementia in a cohort of elderly individuals. To do so, baseline lying and standing blood pressure measurements were taken from 7425 subjects in the Three-City study. These subjects were then followed-up for 12 years. Cox proportional hazard models, adjusted for potential confounders, were used to estimate the risk of incident dementia according to OH status. Sensitivity analysis was performed using the so-called illness-death model, a specific statistical method which takes into account competitive risk with death. OH frequency was found to be around 13%, and 760 cases of dementia were diagnosed during follow-up. We observed significant associations between the presence of OH at baseline and the occurrence of dementia during the follow-up, with an increased risk of at least 25% observed regardless of the OH threshold and the statistical method used. In conclusion, there is an association between OH and dementia. Considering that OH is a common condition and is easy to measure, OH measurements could help to identify subjects with higher risk of dementia. Moreover, reducing OH could be a step to prevent conversion to dementia.

Abstract
The DENERHTN trial (Renal Denervation for Hypertension) confirmed the blood pressure (BP) lowering efficacy of renal denervation added to a standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment for resistant hypertension at 6 months. We report here the effect of denervation on 24-hour BP and its variability and look for parameters that predicted the BP response. Patients with resistant hypertension were randomly assigned to denervation plus stepped-care treatment or treatment alone (control). Average and standard deviation of 24-hour, daytime, and nighttime BP and the smoothness index were calculated on recordings performed at randomization and 6 months. Responders were defined as a 6-month 24-hour systolic BP reduction ≥20 mm Hg. Analyses were performed on the per-protocol population. The significantly greater BP reduction in the denervation group was associated with a higher smoothness index (P=0.02). Variability of 24-hour, daytime, and nighttime BP did not change significantly from baseline to 6 months in both groups. The number of responders was greater in the denervation (20/44, 44.5%) than in the control group (11/53, 20.8%; P=0.01). In the discriminant analysis, baseline average nighttime systolic BP and standard deviation were significant predictors of the systolic BP response in the denervation group only, allowing adequate responder classification of 70% of the patients. Our results show that denervation lowers ambulatory BP homogeneously over 24 hours in patients with resistant hypertension and suggest that nighttime systolic BP and variability are predictors of the BP response to denervation.

Abstract
Background:
The DENERHTN trial (Renal Denervation for Hypertension) confirmed the blood pressure–lowering efficacy of renal denervation added to a standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment for resistant hypertension at 6 months. We report the influence of adherence to antihypertensive treatment on blood pressure control.
Methods:
One hundred six patients with hypertension resistant to 4 weeks of treatment with indapamide 1.5 mg/d, ramipril 10 mg/d (or irbesartan 300 mg/d), and amlodipine 10 mg/d were randomly assigned to renal denervation plus standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment, or the same antihypertensive treatment alone. For standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment, spironolactone 25 mg/d, bisoprolol 10 mg/d, prazosin 5 mg/d, and rilmenidine 1 mg/d were sequentially added at monthly visits if home blood pressure was ≥135/85 mm Hg after randomization. We assessed adherence to antihypertensive treatment at 6 months by drug screening in urine/plasma samples from 85 patients.
Results:
The numbers of fully adherent (20/40 versus 21/45), partially nonadherent (13/40 versus 20/45), or completely nonadherent patients (7/40 versus 4/45) to antihypertensive treatment were not different in the renal denervation and the control groups, respectively (
P
=0.3605). The difference in the change in daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure from baseline to 6 months between the 2 groups was –6.7 mm Hg (
P
=0.0461) in fully adherent and –7.8 mm Hg (
P
=0.0996) in nonadherent (partially nonadherent plus completely nonadherent) patients. The between-patient variability of daytime ambulatory systolic blood pressure was greater for nonadherent than for fully adherent patients.
Conclusions:
In the DENERHTN trial, the prevalence of nonadherence to antihypertensive drugs at 6 months was high (≈50%) but not different in the renal denervation and control groups. Regardless of adherence to treatment, renal denervation plus standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment resulted in a greater decrease in blood pressure than standardized stepped-care antihypertensive treatment alone.

Abstract
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which describes pathological changes in cardiac structure, is a powerful and reversible predictor of cardiovascular risk. There is a continuous relationship between left ventricular mass (LVM) and the likelihood of cardiovascular events, with no cut-off between the absence of such events and heightened risk. A correlation between LVH and blood pressure is well established. There is a paradox, however, that the structural changes to the heart as a result of increased workload due to high blood pressure appear to promote cardiovascular disease. This may be partially explained by the fact that ambulatory blood pressure measurements correlate more closely with LVH than resting blood pressure. Blood pressure variation throughout the day is also emerging as an important correlate of LVH, and a strong association has been identified between an early morning rise in blood pressure and increased LVM. Use of anti-hypertensive agents not only lowers blood pressure, but can also bring about LVH regression. The pathological role of angiotensin II in LVH and target-organ damage within the cardiovascular continuum suggest that agents targeting the renin – angiotensin - aldosterone system (RAAS), such as the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers, may prove particularly effective and may confer beneficial effects in addition to the lowering of blood pressure. The angiotensin II receptor blockers may be very appropriate treatment options because of their placebo-like tolerability and the possibility of more complete blockade of the RAAS. Within this class of anti-hypertensive agents, pharmacological differences may mean that some agents afford greater cardioprotection than others.

Abstract
The French Endocrinology Society (SFE) French Hypertension Society (SFHTA) and Francophone Endocrine Surgery Association (AFCE) have drawn up recommendations for the management of primary aldosteronism (PA), based on an analysis of the literature by 27 experts in 7 work-groups. PA is suspected in case of hypertension associated with one of the following characteristics: severity, resistance, associated hypokalemia, disproportionate target organ lesions, or adrenal incidentaloma with hypertension or hypokalemia. Diagnosis is founded on aldosterone/renin ratio (ARR) measured under standardized conditions. Diagnostic thresholds are expressed according to the measurement units employed. Diagnosis is established for suprathreshold ARR associated with aldosterone concentrations >550pmol/L (200pg/mL) on 2 measurements, and rejected for aldosterone concentration<240pmol/L (90pg/mL) and/or subthreshold ARR. The diagnostic threshold applied is different if certain medication cannot be interrupted. In intermediate situations, dynamic testing is performed. Genetic forms of PA are screened for in young subjects and/or in case of familial history. The patient should be informed of the results expected from medical and surgical treatment of PA before exploration for lateralization is proposed. Lateralization is explored by adrenal vein sampling (AVS), except in patients under 35 years of age with unilateral adenoma on imaging. If PA proves to be lateralized, unilateral adrenalectomy may be performed, with adaptation of medical treatment pre- and postoperatively. If PA is non-lateralized or the patient refuses surgery, spironolactone is administered as first-line treatment, replaced by amiloride, eplerenone or calcium-channel blockers if insufficiently effective or poorly tolerated.
