[PMID: 38773675 DOI: 10.1080/00325481.2024.2358748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/24/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether there is a longitudinal association between long-term blood pressure variability (BPV) and subsequent depression among Chinese adults remains inconclusive. METHODS This study utilized data from a nationwide cohort of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, which included participants aged > 45 years without prevalent psychiatric or memory-related diseases. The intra-individual coefficient of variation (CV) and standard deviation (SD) across 3 visits from 2011 to 2015 were used to examine the long-term variability in systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP). The depressive symptoms were examined using the 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D-10), and moderate-to-severe depression was defined as CES-D-10 ≥ 15. RESULTS A total of 5,249 participants (mean age: 61.4 ± 8.1 years, 46.5% were men) were included in the current analysis. Individuals in the highest quartile of both BP CV and SD were independently correlated with a higher total CES-D-10 score compared to those in the lowest quartile after multivariable adjustment. 1,070 participants (20.4%) had moderate-to-severe depression during the 3-year follow-up period. Participants in the Q4 of SBP and DBP CV had 1.23-fold higher odds (95% CI: 1.01, 1.49) and 1.20-fold higher odds (95% CI: 1.01, 1.41) of moderate-to-severe depression compared to those in Q1. Subgroup analyses revealed that men with higher BP CVs had a greater risk of severe depressive symptoms (p for SBP CV-by-sex interaction = 0.050, p for SBP CV-by-sex interaction = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS Depression was common among Chinese middle-aged and older adults and long-term visit-to-visit BPV was positively associated with depressive symptoms, highlighting the importance of implementing intensive prevention strategies for depression and enhancing blood pressure monitors in China.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic relevance of short-term blood pressure (BP) variability in hypertension is not clearly established. We aimed to evaluate the association of short-term BP variability, with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in a large cohort of patients with hypertension. METHODS We selected 59 124 patients from the Spanish Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Registry from 2004 to 2014 (median follow-up: 9.7 years). Systolic and diastolic BP SD and coefficient of variation from daytime and nighttime, weighted SD, weighted coefficient of variation, average real variability (mean of differences between consecutive readings), and BP variability ratio (ratio between systolic and diastolic 24-hour SD) were calculated through baseline 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring. Association with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality were assessed by Cox regression models adjusted for clinical confounders and BP. RESULTS Patients who died during follow-up had higher values of BP variability compared with those remaining alive. In adjusted models systolic and diastolic daytime and weighted SD and coefficient of variation, average real variability, as well as systolic nighttime SD and BP variability ratio were all significantly associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Hazard ratios for 1-SD increase in the systolic components ranged from 1.05 to 1.12 for all-cause mortality and from 1.07 to 1.17 for cardiovascular mortality. A daytime SD≥13 mm Hg, a nighttime and a weighted SD≥12 mm Hg, and an average real variability ≥10 mm Hg, all systolic, were independently associated with mortality. CONCLUSIONS Short-term blood pressure variability shows a relatively weak but significant association with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients with hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, the mortality of patients with AMI has not declined significantly. The relationship between blood pressure variability (BPV) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is unclear. We explored the relationship between 24-h BPV and mortality in patients with AMI. HYPOTHESIS The mortality of patients with AMI is related to BPV. We hope to provide therapeutic ideas for reducing the risk of death in patients with AMI. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study. We extracted and analyzed data from the MIMIC-IV 2.0, which was established in 1999 under the auspices of the National Institutes of Health (America). The average real variability (ARV) was calculated for the first 24-h blood pressure measurement after patients with AMI were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). Patients were divided into four groups according to ARV quartiles. The outcomes were 30-day, 1-year, and 3-year all-cause mortalities. Data were analyzed using Cox regression, Kaplan-Meier curves, and restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves. RESULTS We enrolled 1291 patients with AMI, including 475 female. The patients were divided into four groups according to the qualities of diastolic blood pressure (DBP)-ARV. There were significant differences in the 30-day, 1-year and 3-year mortality among the four groups (p = .02, p < .001, p < .001, respectively). After adjustment for confounding factors, systolic blood pressure (SBP)-ARV could not predict AMI patient mortality (p > .05), while the highest DBP-ARV was associated strongly with increased 30-day mortality (HR: 2.291, 95% CI 1.260-4.168), 1-year mortality (HR: 1.933, 95% CI 1.316-2.840) and 3-year mortality (HR: 1.743, 95% CI 1.235-2.461). Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated that, regardless of SBP or DBP, the long-term survival probabilities of patients in the highest ARV group were significantly lower than that of those in other groups. RCS curves showed that the death risk of patients with AMI first decreased and then increased with the increase in ARV when DBP-ARV < 8.04. The 30-day death risk first increased and then decreased, and the 1-year and 3-year death risks increased and then stabilized with ARV increase when DBP-ARV > 8.04. CONCLUSION This study showed that patients with AMI may have an increased risk of short- and long-term death if their DBP-ARV is higher or lower during the first 24-h in ICU.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV), cumulative systolic BP (cumSBP), and systolic blood pressure trajectory (trajSBP) are major indices describing characteristics of BP changes. The aim of this study was to compare their discrimination abilities for cardiovascular (CV) events. METHODS In 51698 subjects, associations were assessed using Cox regression in the overall cohort and Framingham risk score (FRS) stratified groups. Individuals with <10%, 10%-20%, and >20% 10-year CV risk were categorized into the low-, intermediate-, and high-risk group, respectively. Discrimination capabilities were evaluated using the area under curve (AUC), Harrell's C index, net reclassification index (NRI), and integrated discrimination index (IDI). RESULTS Within a mean follow-up of 6.83 ± 0.89 years, 2330 participants had CV events, and all three markers were significantly associated with CV events. TrajSBP provided the best additional discriminative value for CV events, with improvements of 1.54% in AUC%, 0.01 in Harrell's C, 37.52% in NRI%, and 0.59% in IDI%. CumSBP had good additional discriminative capability in the intermediate to high FRS groups, but the effect sizes were smaller than those of trajSBP. Although, SBPV improved the predictive capabilities in the low-to intermediate-risk groups, the effect sizes were much smaller than those of the other indices. Sensitivity analyses excluding patients who underwent antihypertensive therapy revealed similar patterns but higher effect sizes than in the overall population. CONCLUSION TrajSBP provides the best additional discrimination capabilities based on traditional risk profiles and may assist the risk stratification and individual prediction for future CV events.

More moderate-intensity physical activity and less prolonged sedentary time are associated with better very short-term systolic blood pressure variability in healthy adults. J Hum Hypertens 2023; 37:1015-1020. [PMID: 37185597 DOI: 10.1038/s41371-023-00832-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Revised: 03/23/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
Whole-day movement guidelines for improving health, recommend that adults engage in at least 150 min week-1 of moderate-to-vigorous aerobic physical activity and limit their sedentary time. In young adults, higher systolic blood pressure variability (BPV) is a precursor for the development of hypertension. The impact of habitual activity that comprises (inter)national guidelines on BPV is unclear. We tested the hypothesis that less habitual physical activity and greater sedentary time would be associated with larger BPV. Ninety-two normotensive participants [age: 19-38 years, body mass index (BMI): 23.6 ± 3.3 kg/m2, 44♀] wore an activPAL monitor on their thigh for 7.0 ± 0.3 days. Ten minutes of supine systolic arterial pressure was measured via finger photoplethysmography (115 ± 11 mmHg). Beat-by-beat systolic BPV was measured using the average real variability index (1.1 ± 0.6 mmHg). Relationships between habitual activity outcomes and BPV were assessed via multiple regressions adjusted for age, sex, and BMI. Moderate-intensity physical activity (average: 36 ± 19 min day-1; β = -0.010, p = 0.02) and time spent in sedentary bouts >1-h (245 ± 134 min day-1; β = 0.002, p < 0.001), but not light-intensity activity, vigorous-intensity activity, standing time, sedentary breaks, or time spent in sedentary bouts <1-h (all, p > 0.10) were predictors of systolic BPV. Higher moderate physical activity and lower prolonged sedentary time were associated with attenuated systolic BPV responses in young adults. These findings highlight the cardiovascular benefits of habitual activity among younger adults and suggest that simple strategies such as reducing long periods of uninterrupted sitting and increasing moderate-intensity physical activity may be efficacious for reducing the risk of developing or delaying the onset of hypertension.

Abstract
Blood pressure oscillations during different time scales, known as blood pressure variability (BPV), have become a focus of growing scientific interest. BPV can be measured at long-term (seasonal variability or visit-to-visit), at mid-term (differences in consecutive days or weeks) or at short-term (day-night differences or changes induced by other daily activities and conditions). An increased BPV, either at long, mid or short-term is associated with a poor cardiovascular prognosis independently of the amount of blood pressure elevation. There is scarce evidence on the effect of different antihypertensive treatments on BPV, but some observational and interventional studies suggest that calcium channel blockers in general, and particularly amlodipine, either in monotherapy or combined with renin-angiotensin system blockers, can reduce BPV more efficiently than other antihypertensive drugs or combinations. Nevertheless, there are several aspects of the relationship between BPV, antihypertensive treatment, and clinical outcomes that are still unknown, and more work should be performed before considering BPV as a therapeutical target in clinical practice.

Abstract
Introduction: Like heart rate, blood pressure (BP) is not steady but varies over intervals as long as months to as short as consecutive cardiac cycles. This blood pressure variability (BPV) consists of regularly occurring oscillations as well as less well-organized changes and typically is computed as the standard deviation of multiple clinic visit-to-visit (VVV-BP) measures or from 24-h ambulatory BP recordings (ABPV). BP also varies on a beat-to-beat basis, quantified by methods that parse variation into discrete bins, e.g., low frequency (0.04-0.15 Hz, LF). However, beat-to-beat BPV requires continuous recordings that are not easily acquired. As a result, we know little about the relationship between LF-BPV and basic sociodemographic characteristics such as age, sex, and race and clinical conditions. Methods: We computed LF-BPV during an 11-min resting period in 2,118 participants in the Midlife in the US (MIDUS) study. Results: LF-BPV was negatively associated with age, greater in men than women, and unrelated to race or socioeconomic status. It was greater in participants with hypertension but unrelated to hyperlipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, diabetes, elevated CRP, or obesity. LF-diastolic BPV (DBPV), but not-systolic BPV (SBPV), was negatively correlated with IL-6 and s-ICAM and positively correlated with urinary epinephrine and cortisol. Finally, LF-DBPV was negatively associated with mortality, an effect was rendered nonsignificant by adjustment by age but not other sociodemographic characteristics. Discussion: These findings, the first from a large, national sample, suggest that LF-BPV differs significantly from VVV-BP and ABPV. Confirming its relationship to sociodemographic risk factors and clinical outcomes requires further study with large and representative samples.

Abstract
AIMS High systolic blood pressure (HSBP), a significant public health challenge, has not been systematically studied in the elderly population in the context of global aging. Understanding the temporal trends of the disease burden associated with HSBP in the elderly population is essential to control and mitigate the harm caused by HSBP. METHODS AND RESULTS We used the estimated data derived from the Global Burden of Disease Study to analyse the disease burden of HSBP among the elderly population by region, sex, and temporal changes from 1990 to 2019. We found that the number of deaths due to HSBP increased to 7.86 (95% UI: 6.89-8.82) million, with an increase of 54.1%, and the number of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) increased to 146 (95% UI: 130-162) million, with an increase of 52.4%. Conversely, the death and DALY rates of HSBP decreased by -27.0 and -27.8%, respectively. At the national and regional levels, Australasia and other high socio-demographic index regions have made significant improvements in the burden of HSBP, while it remains high in other regions of the world. Additionally, the burden of HSBP in older men is greater than that in older women. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that the current prevention and control of HSBP in older adults is poor, with the total burden increasing significantly. There is an urgent need to implement feasible measures to resist HSBP and lessen the disparity of the global HSBP burden for older adults.

Abstract
Blood pressure is not a static parameter, but rather undergoes continuous fluctuations over time, as a result of the interaction between environmental and behavioural factors on one side and intrinsic cardiovascular regulatory mechanisms on the other side. Increased blood pressure variability (BPV) may indicate an impaired cardiovascular regulation and may represent a cardiovascular risk factor itself, having been associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, stroke, coronary artery disease, heart failure, end-stage renal disease, and dementia incidence. Nonetheless, BPV was considered only a research issue in previous hypertension management guidelines, because the available evidence on its clinical relevance presents several gaps and is based on heterogeneous studies with limited standardization of methods for BPV assessment. The aim of this position paper, with contributions from members of the European Society of Hypertension Working Group on Blood Pressure Monitoring and Cardiovascular Variability and from a number of international experts, is to summarize the available evidence in the field of BPV assessment methodology and clinical applications and to provide practical indications on how to measure and interpret BPV in research and clinical settings based on currently available data. Pending issues and clinical and methodological recommendations supported by available evidence are also reported. The information provided by this paper should contribute to a better standardization of future studies on BPV, but should also provide clinicians with some indications on how BPV can be managed based on currently available data.

Abstract
Hypertension is the most common and preventable risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), accounting for 20% of deaths worldwide. However, 2/3 of people with hypertension are undiagnosed, untreated, or under treated. A multi-pronged approach is needed to improve hypertension management. Elevated blood pressure (BP) in childhood is a predictor of hypertension and CVD in adulthood; therefore, screening and education programmes should start early and continue throughout the lifespan. Home BP monitoring can be used to engage patients and improve BP control rates. Progress in imaging technology allows for the detection of preclinical disease, which may help identify patients who are at greatest risk of CV events. There is a need to optimize the use of current BP control strategies including lifestyle modifications, antihypertensive agents, and devices. Reducing the complexity of pharmacological therapy using single-pill combinations can improve patient adherence and BP control and may reduce physician inertia. Other strategies that can improve patient adherence include education and reassurance to address misconceptions, engaging patients in management decisions, and using digital tools. Strategies to improve physician therapeutic inertia, such as reminders, education, physician-peer visits, and task-sharing may improve BP control rates. Digital health technologies, such as telemonitoring, wearables, and other mobile health platforms, are becoming frequently adopted tools in hypertension management, particularly those that have undergone regulatory approval. Finally, to fight the consequences of hypertension on a global scale, healthcare system approaches to cardiovascular risk factor management are needed. Government policies should promote routine BP screening, salt-, sugar-, and alcohol reduction programmes, encourage physical activity, and target obesity control.

Abstract
AIM Specify the risk rate of incorrect patient classification based on the night-to-day ratio specification from singular 24-h ABPM in comparison to the results of 7-day ABPM monitoring. MATERIALS AND METHODS 1197 24 h cycles were enrolled in 171 subjects in the study and divided into 4 groups: group 1 (40 healthy men and women without exercise), group 2 (40 healthy exercise-training men and women), group 3 (40 patients with ischemic coronary artery disease without exercise), and group 4 (51 patients with ischemic coronary artery disease following cardiovascular rehabilitation). The subject of the evaluation was the percentage rate of incorrect subject classification (dipper, nondipper, extreme dipper, and riser) based on the mean blood pressure values for 7 days and from seven independent 24-hour cycles (the mean value mode). RESULTS In the case of the individuals included in the monitored groups, the mean night-to-day ratio-based (mode for the 7 days versus the individual days of 24-hour monitoring) classification accordance ranged between 59% and 62%. Only in singular cases did the accordance reach 0% or 100%. The accordance size was not dependent on the health or cardiovascular disease (p < 0.594; 56% vs. 54%) or physical activity (p < 0.833; 55% vs. 54%) of the monitored individuals. CONCLUSION The specification of the night-to-day ratio of each individual for each day of the 7-day ABPM monitoring would be the most convenient option. In many patients, diagnosing could thus be based on the most frequently occurring values (mode specification).

Abstract
Introduction The cardiovascular risk of Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients is uncertain. Blood pressure variability (BPV) has been associated with cardiovascular and mortality outcomes. We aimed to evaluate blood pressure variability, as a marker of cardiovascular risk, in patients with PD and matched community controls. Methods Cross-sectional case-control study was performed. All subjects included in the analysis were clinically evaluated and performed a 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. BPV was assessed using standard deviations (SDs) of the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) for each period - 24 h, daytime, and night-time. Results The study included 204 participants, 102 in each group. Mean age 66 years old and 59% man. Most PD patients presented mild symptoms (mean Hoehn&Yahr 2.04). Daytime BPV was significantly higher in PD patients (SD SBP 14.1 mmHg vs 12.96 mmHg and SD DBP 9.39 mmHg vs 8.29 mmHg), but 24 h and night-time BPV were non-significantly increased. PD patients present non-significant higher night-time SBP (114 mmHg vs 110 mmHg) as well as higher frequency of non-dippers or reverse dippers BP profiles (51% vs 36%). Conclusion Our exploratory study suggests that PD patients may present a higher blood pressure variability, which may translate in an increased cardiovascular risk. However, further studies are needed to confirm this hypothesis and causality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is a condition characterized by excessive erythrocytosis in response to chronic hypobaric hypoxia. CMS frequently triggers cardiorespiratory diseases such as pulmonary hypertension and right or left heart failure. Ambient hypoxia might be further amplified night-time by intermittent hypoxia related to sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) so that sleep disturbance may be an important feature of CMS. Our aim was to characterize in a cross-sectional study nocturnal hypoxaemia, SDB, blood pressure (BP), arterial stiffness and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in highlanders living at extreme altitude. METHODS Men aged 18 to 55 years were prospectively recruited. Home sleep apnoea test, questionnaires (short-form health survey; Montreal cognitive assessment; Pittsburgh Sleep Questionnaire Index and the Insomnia severity index), 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring, CIMT and arterial stiffness were evaluated in 3 groups: i) Andean lowlanders (sea-level); ii) highlanders living at 3,800 m and iii) highlanders living at 5,100 m. Analyses were conducted in sub-groups according to 1) CMS severity 2) healthy subjects living at the three different altitude. RESULTS Ninety-two males were evaluated at their living altitudes. Among the 54 highlanders living at 5,100 m, subjects with CMS showed lower mean nocturnal oxygen saturation (SpO2), SpO2 nadir, lower pulse wave velocity and higher nocturnal BP variability than those with no-CMS. Lower nocturnal SpO2 nadir was associated with higher CMS severity (ß= -0.14, p=.009). Among the 55 healthy subjects, healthy highlanders at 5,100 m were characterized by lower scores on quality of life and sleep quality scales and lower mean SpO2 compared to lowlanders. CONCLUSIONS Lower nocturnal SpO2 and higher nocturnal BP variability are associated with CMS severity in individuals living permanently at high altitude. The role of lower SpO2 and higher nocturnal BP variability in the cardiovascular progression of CMS and in the overall prognosis of the disease need to be evaluated in further studies.

Comparison of Blood Pressure Variability between 24 h Ambulatory Monitoring and Office Blood Pressure in Diabetics and Nondiabetic Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study. Int J Hypertens 2022; 2022:1022044. [PMID: 35774421 PMCID: PMC9239826 DOI: 10.1155/2022/1022044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2021] [Revised: 01/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background. Evidence regarding blood pressure (BP) variability (BPV) and its independent association with adverse outcomes has grown. Diabetic patients might have increased BPV, but there is still an evidence gap regarding relation between BPV and type 2 diabetes beyond mean values of BP. Objective. To examine the relationship between 24 h ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM, short-term variability) and visit-to-visit in-office BPV (OBP, long-term variability), in diabetics (D) and nondiabetics (ND), and to explore BPV relation with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and pulse wave velocity (PWV) as indicators of target organ lesion. Materials and Methods. We conducted a single-center cross-sectional study in an outpatient BP unit, including adult patients consecutively admitted from 1999 to 2019. Multivariate was performed to compare BPV between D and ND adjusted for clinical variables. Pearson’s correlation was performed to evaluate relation of BPV with eGFR and PWV. Results. A total of 1123 patients with ABPM and OBP measurements were included. Values of eGFR and PWV were worse in D than in ND. Measurements of OBPV did not differ between groups. Of ABPM BPV, the coefficient of variation and standard deviation for daytime systolic BP were higher in D compared to ND, but only in ND did BPV correlated with both eGFR and PWV. Conclusion. We found that diabetes is associated with higher variability of daytime BP than nondiabetics along with worse damage of vascular and renal function. However, in contrast to nondiabetics, in diabetics eGFR and PWV may not be dependent on BP variability, suggesting that other mechanisms might explain more rigorously the greater damage of target organ lesion markers.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare changes in blood pressure variability (BPV) and blood pressure (BP) values occurring in response to concurrent training (CT) between the two genders. A total of 35 males and 20 women aged 55–80 years, with hypertension and coronary artery disease, were included. They underwent a 12-week CT program. The aerobic component of CT was performed according to the rate of perceived exertion while the intensity of the resistance component was set at 60% of 1 repetition maximum for the first 4 weeks and then increased to 80%. BP and BPV were evaluated at baseline and at the end of the CT program through 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. After 12-weeks, 24 h and daytime systolic BPV decreased in both men and women without significant between-groups differences. Twenty-four-hour daytime and nighttime diastolic BPV decreased in both genders with a significantly greater decrease in women compared to men. Twenty-four-hour daytime systolic and 24 h diastolic BP decreased in men while they were unchanged in women. In conclusion, CT induced similar reductions of systolic BPV in men and women and a greater decrease in diastolic BPV in women. Conversely, CT decreased BP values in males but not in females. CT appears to be an effective intervention for reducing BPV in both genders.

T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance and echocardiographic arterial elasticity criteria for monitoring cardiac siderosis in patients with beta-thalassemia major. JOURNAL OF RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES 2022; 27:44. [PMID: 35968210 PMCID: PMC9374138 DOI: 10.4103/jrms.jrms_705_21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2021] [Revised: 12/25/2021] [Accepted: 12/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Background: Despite the availability of iron chelators, toxicity due to increased iron load is the leading cause of death in thalassemia major patients, especially in Iran. This study was performed to determine the association between cardiovascular magnetic resonance using T2-weighted sequences (CMR T2*) and diagnostic value of echocardiographic arterial elasticity in major beta-thalassemia patients without cardiac symptoms in Isfahan, Iran, in 2019 and 2021. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study assessed the association between CMR T2*, advanced echocardiographic arterial elasticity criteria, and serum ferritin in 67 patients with major beta-thalassemia patients without cardiac symptoms at Chamran Cardiovascular, Medical, and Research Center in Isfahan, Iran, in 2019–2021. Data analysis was performed among the 67 patients using SPSS, version 24.0 (Statistical Procedures for Social Sciences, Chicago, Illinois, USA). Spearman's rank test was used to assess the correlation between T2*CMR, echocardiographic arterial elasticity criteria, and ferritin. All parameters are presented as mean ± standard deviation. The results were considered statistically significant at P < 0.05. Results: There was a positive correlation between CMR T2* and arterial elastance index (P = 0.035, r = 0.258), according to the Spearman test. In addition, CMR T2* was not correlated with the serum ferritin (P = 0.158, r = 0.201). Conclusion: Totally, according to the obtained results, it may be concluded that the arterial elastance index from echocardiography and the CMR T2* may be indicators of myocardial iron overload in patients with major beta-thalassemia patients without cardiac symptoms.

The relationship between day-to-day variability in home blood pressure measurement and multiple organ function. Hypertens Res 2021; 45:474-482. [PMID: 34934161 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-021-00818-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2021] [Revised: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Blood pressure variability (BPV) is associated with the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. However, it is unclear how BPV is related to various organs. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between BPV and multiple organ functions. A total of three hundred fifteen participants (114 males; mean age: 70 ± 9 years) participated in a community health checkup held in Tarumizu City. Home blood pressure (BP) was measured using a HEM-9700T (OMRON Healthcare, Kyoto, Japan). Day-to-day BPV was evaluated by the coefficient of variation (CV) of home BP measured in the morning for one month. N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) and high-sensitivity (hs-)troponin T were measured as cardiac biomarkers. Liver stiffness and renal function were evaluated using the Fibrous-4 (Fib4) index and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), respectively. NT-pro BNP and hs-troponin T were divided by the median value. Fib4 index greater than 2.67 and eGFR less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 were defined as high Fib4 index and low eGFR, respectively. In a multivariable logistic regression analysis, the CV of systolic BP was significantly associated with high NT-pro BNP, high Fib 4 index, and low eGFR, but not with high hs-troponin T. In contrast, the CV of diastolic BP was not associated with low eGFR, and the other three biomarkers had the same results as systolic BP. In conclusion, day-to-day BPV of systolic BP is independently associated with NT-pro BNP, eGFR, and Fib4 index, but not with hs-troponin T. In contrast, diastolic BPV was not found to be associated with eGFR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High day-to-day blood pressure variability (BPV) has been associated with an increased risk for cognitive decline and mortality in the general population. Whether BPV is associated with increased all-cause mortality in older people with cognitive impairment is unknown. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between day-to-day home BPV and all-cause mortality in older patients attending a memory clinic. METHODS We included 279 patients attending a memory clinic, who measured home blood pressure (BP) for 7 consecutive days in the morning and evening. Within-subject BPV was defined as the variation independent of the mean (VIM). Time-to-death was verified through the Dutch population registry. Cox proportional hazard regression was used. Separate analyses were performed for morning-to-morning and evening-to-evening BPV. RESULTS Mean age was 73±9 years, dementia and mild cognitive impairment were diagnosed in 35% and 34% respectively, and mean home BP was 139/79 mmHg. After a mean follow-up of 3.2 years, 52 patients had died. Neither day-to-day systolic nor diastolic VIM were associated with mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] systolic VIM: 0.99, 95% -CI 0.92-1.06, p = 0.770, HR diastolic VIM: 1.04, 95% -CI 0.93-1.17, p = 0.517). When morning and evening measurements were analyzed separately, systolic morning-to-morning VIM was associated with mortality (adjusted HR: 1.09, 95% -CI 1.01-1.18, p = 0.033). CONCLUSION In this study, day-to-day BPV was not associated with all-cause mortality in patients attending a memory clinic. However, morning-to-morning BPV was. Due to the short assessment window, there is still a lack of clarity; hence future research is warranted to clarify the role of all BPV components in aging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies demonstrate an association between visit-to-visit blood pressure variability (BPV) and cardiovascular events and death. We aimed to determine the long-term cardiovascular and mortality effects of BPV in midlife in participants with and without cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS This is a post-hoc analysis of the Atherosclerosis Risk in the Community study. Long-term BPV was derived utilizing mean systolic blood pressure at Visits 1-4 (Visit 1: 1987-1989, Visit 2: 1990-1992, Visit 3: 1993-1995, Visit 4: 1996-1998). The primary outcome was mortality from Visit 4 to 2016 and secondary outcome was cardiovascular events (fatal coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, cardiac procedure, or stroke). We fit Cox proportional hazards models and also performed the analysis in a subgroup of cardiovascular disease-free patients without prior stroke, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, hypertension, or diabetes. RESULTS We included 9,578 participants. The mean age at the beginning of follow-up was 62.9 ± 5.7 years, and mean follow-up was 14.2 ± 4.5 years. During follow-up, 3,712 (38.8%) participants died and 1,721 (n = 8,771, 19.6%) had cardiovascular events. For every SD higher in systolic residual SD (range 0-60.5 mm Hg, SD = 5.6 mm Hg), the hazard ratio for death was 1.09 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.05-1.12) and for cardiovascular events was 1.00 (95% CI 0.95-1.05). In cardiovascular disease-free participants (n = 4,452), the corresponding hazard ratio for death was 1.12 (95% CI 1.03-1.21) and for cardiovascular events was 1.01 (95% CI 0.89-1.14). CONCLUSION Long-term BPV during midlife is an independent predictor of later life mortality but not cardiovascular events.

Impact of dietary intake of sodium and potassium on short-term blood pressure variability. J Hypertens 2021; 39:1835-1843.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH)-Sodium trial showed that dietary sodium and potassium affect blood pressure (BP). We aimed to investigate whether dietary sodium and potassium affect short-term BP variability (BPV) in addition to BP. METHODS A total of 343 participants from the DASH-Sodium trial (age 48.4 ± 9.7, 42.5% men) and 323 individuals from the Jackson Heart Study (JHS) (age 56.7 ± 11.2, 30.7% men) with satisfactory ambulatory BP monitoring records and 24-h urine collection were included. Average real variability (ARV) was calculated as a measure of short-term BPV. RESULTS By estimating dietary intake from urinary excretion, we observed that higher urinary sodium-to-potassium ratio was significantly associated with higher diastolic ARV in both studies. Among the DASH-Sodium trial, potassium-rich DASH diet alone had insignificant effect on both systolic (-0.1 ± 1.7 mmHg, P = 0.343) or diastolic ARV (-0.2 ± 1.5 mmHg, P = 0.164), whereas combined DASH diet and low sodium intake significantly reduced both systolic (8.5 ± 1.6 vs. 8.9 ± 1.7 mmHg, P = 0.032) and diastolic ARV (7.5 ± 1.5 vs. 7.8 ± 1.6 mmHg, P = 0.025) as compared with control diet and high sodium intake. As the reduction of systolic ARV was majorly derived from the change of mean SBP, diastolic ARV was significantly determined by urinary sodium-to-potassium ratio (β coefficient ± standard error: 0.012 ± 0.004; P = 0.006) after adjusting for age, sex, smoking, mean DBP, BMI, and race. CONCLUSION Dietary sodium and potassium can jointly modulate short-term BPV in addition to BP. Combined DASH diet and low sodium intake may reduce systolic and diastolic ARV via different mechanisms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prognostic importance of short-term blood pressure variability (BPV) for the occurrence of macrovascular and microvascular complications in individuals with type 2 diabetes. METHODS Six hundred and forty patients had 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring performed at baseline and were followed-up over a median of 11.2 years. Daytime, night-time and 24-h SBP and DBPV parameters (standard deviations and variation coefficients) were calculated. Multivariate Cox analysis, adjusted for risk factors and mean BPs, examined the associations between BPV and the occurrence of microvascular (retinopathy, microalbuminuria, renal function deterioration, peripheral neuropathy) and macrovascular complications [total cardiovascular events (CVEs), major adverse CVEs [MACEs]), and cardiovascular and all-cause mortalities. Improvements in risk discrimination were assessed by the C-statistic and Integrated Discrimination Improvement (IDI) index. RESULTS During follow-up, 186 patients had a CVE (150 MACEs), and 237 patients died (107 from cardiovascular diseases); 155 newly developed or worsened diabetic retinopathy, 200 achieved the renal composite outcome (124 newly developed microalbuminuria and 102 deteriorated renal function), and 170 newly developed or worsened peripheral neuropathy. Daytime DBPV was the best predictor for all cardiovascular outcomes and mortality, with hazard ratios (for increments of 1SD) ranging from 1.27 (95% CI 1.09-1.48) for all-cause mortality to 1.55 (1.29-1.85) for MACEs, and it improved cardiovascular risk discrimination (with increases in C-statistic of up to 0.026, and IDIs of up to 22.8%). No BPV parameter predicted any microvascular outcome. CONCLUSION Short-term BPV, particularly daytime DBPV, predicts future development of macrovascular complications and mortality and improves cardiovascular risk discrimination in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Blood pressure variability (BPV) is recognized as a prognostic contributor in hypertension. We aimed to assess differences in short-term BPV in treated hypertensive patients depending on the number, classes, combinations and individual compounds of the antihypertensive treatment. METHODS We selected 38 188 treated patients from the Spanish Ambulatory BP Monitoring (ABPM) Registry. SBP and DBP standard deviations (SD) from 24-h, daytime and night-time, weighted SD (WSD), and average real variability (ARV) were calculated through ABPM. They were compared (after adjustment for clinical confounders and BP) depending on the number of antihypertensive drugs, antihypertensive drug classes and compounds (in 13 765 patients on monotherapy), or combinations (in 12 716 patients treated with two drugs and 7888 treated with three drugs). RESULTS Systolic and diastolic BPV significantly increased in patients treated with multiple drugs with respect to monotherapy. Among drug classes, calcium channel blockers, especially amlodipine, and diuretics were associated with lower systolic BPV, including daytime and night-time SD, WSD and ARV, compared with beta blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers. Likewise, in patients treated with two-drug and three-drug combinations, those which included a calcium channel blocker showed lower BPV in comparison to those without such drug class. CONCLUSION Treatment with calcium channel blockers, especially amlodipine, and with diuretics is associated with slight, but significant lower values of short-term BPV in comparison to other major drug classes, both in monotherapy and in combination. These results could be helpful when considering BPV reduction as an additional treatment target.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blood pressure variability (BPV) is a possible risk factor for adverse cardiovascular outcomes and mortality. There is uncertainty as to whether BPV is related to differences in populations studied, measurement methods or both. We systematically reviewed the evidence for different methods to assess blood pressure variability (BPV) and their association with future cardiovascular events, cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality. METHODS Literature databases were searched to June 2019. Observational studies were eligible if they measured short-term BPV, defined as variability in blood pressure measurements acquired either over a 24-hour period or several days. Data were extracted on method of BPV and reported association (or not) on future cardiovascular events, cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality. Methodological quality was assessed using the CASP observational study tool and data narratively synthesised. RESULTS Sixty-one studies including 3,333,801 individuals were eligible. BPV has been assessed by various methods including ambulatory and home-based BP monitors assessing 24-hour, "day-by-day" and "week-to-week" variability. There was moderate quality evidence of an association between BPV and cardiovascular events (43 studies analysed) or all-cause mortality (26 studies analysed) irrespective of the measurement method in the short- to longer-term. There was moderate quality evidence reporting inconsistent findings on the potential association between cardiovascular mortality, irrespective of methods of BPV assessment (17 studies analysed). CONCLUSION An association between BPV, cardiovascular mortality and cardiovascular events and/or all-cause mortality were reported by the majority of studies irrespective of method of measurement. Direct comparisons between studies and reporting of pooled effect sizes were not possible.
