    Morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) is defined as an excessive increase in blood pressure (BP) in the morning from the lowest systolic BP during sleep, and it has been reported as a risk factor for cardiovascular events in current clinical studies. In this study, we evaluated the association between the rate of BP variation derived from ambulatory BP monitoring data analysis and coronary microvascular function in patients with early stage hypertension. One hundred seventy patients with prehypertension and Stage 1 hypertension who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included in the study. We divided our study population into two subgroups according to the median value of coronary flow reserve (CFR). Patients with CFR values <2.5 were defined as the impaired CFR group, and patients with CFR values >= 2.5 were defined as the preserved CFR group, and we compared the MBPS measurements of these two subgroups. CFR was measured using transthoracic Doppler echocardiography (TTDE). Ambulatory 24-hour systolic and diastolic BP, uric acid, systolic MBPS amplitude, diastolic MBPS amplitude, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and mitral flow E/A ratio were statistically significant. These predictors were included in age- and gender-adjusted multivariate analysis; ambulatory 24-hour systolic BP (beta = 0.077, P <.001; odds ratio [OR] = 1.080; 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.037-1.1241) and systolic MBPS amplitude (beta = 0.043, P =.022; OR = 1.044; 95% CI [1.006-1.0841) were determined to be independent predictors of impaired CFR (Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P=.165, Nagelkerke's R-2 = 0.320). We found that increased changes in MBPS values in patients with prehypertension and Stage 1 hypertension seemed to cause microvascular dysfunction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease.

    Morning Blood Pressure Surge Is Associated with Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Prehypertensive Patients
    (2017) Alpaydin, Sertac; Turan, Yasar; Caliskan, Mustafa; Caliskan, Zuhal; Aksu, Feyza; Ozyildirim, Serhan; Buyukterzi, Zafer; Kostek, Osman; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9635-6313; 28272109; AAG-8233-2020
    Objective Morning blood pressure (BP) surge (MBPS) is defined as an excessive increase in the morning BP from the lowest systolic BP during sleep and is reported as a risk factor for cardiovascular events in current clinical studies. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between MBPS and carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) in prehypertensive patients. Patients and methods We evaluated the association between the rate of BP variation derived from ambulatory BP monitoring and C-IMT in patients with prehypertension. Results One hundred and seventy patients with prehypertension were included in the study. All office BP measurements and ambulatory 24-h, day-time, and night-time measurements were similar between each group. C-IMT [0.60 (range: 0.57-0.65) vs. 0.55 (range: 0.50-0.60) cm; P < 0.001] and the mean platelet volume [8.7 (range: 7.9-9.1) vs. 7.9 (range: 7.3-8.8) fl; P = 0.002] were significantly higher in the greater MBPS group than the lower group. In multivariate analysis, male sex [odds ratio (OR): 2.271, confidence interval (CI): 1.011-5.100, P = 0.047], greater MBPS (OR: 8.474, CI: 3.623-19.608, P < 0.001), and elevated mean platelet volume levels (OR: 3.359, CI: 1.978-5.705, P < 0.001) were found to be independent predictors of greater C-IMT in prehypertensive patients. Conclusion Our study suggests that greater MBPS is associated independently with C-IMT in prehypertensive patients. Copyright (C) 2017 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.

    Morning Blood Pressure Surge In Renal Transplant Recipients: Its Relation To Graft Function And Arterial Stiffness
    (2022) Demirci, Bahar Gurlek; Afsar, Baris; Tutal, Emre; Colak, Turan; 35704743
    Background: When the blood pressure rises before awakening in the morning, it is called as morning blood pressure pulse (MBPS). MBPS is considered to be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between MBPS, graft function, arterial stiffness and echocardiographic indices in renal transplant recipients. Methods: Among 600 renal transplant recipients, 122 patients who had a history of hypertension and were taking at least one anti hypertensive medication were enrolled in the study. Arterial stiffness was measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWv), and echocardiographic indices were assessed. 24 h ambulatory blood pressure was monitored for all patients. MBPS was calculated by subtracting morning systolic blood pressure from minimal asleep systolic blood pressure. Results: Mean morning, day time and asleep systolic blood pressure values were 171.2 +/- 23.9, 137.9 +/- 18.1, and 131.7 +/- 18.9, respectively. Nondipper hypertension status was observed in 93 patients. Mean MBPS was 35.6 +/- 19.5 mm Hg, means PWv was 6.5 +/- 2.0 m/s. Patients with MBPS >= 35 mm Hg, had significantly lower eGFR and higher proteinuria, PWv. higher left atrium volume and LVMI. In regression analysis, day time systolic blood pressure, asleep systolic blood pressure, morning blood pressure surge, nondipper status and left ventricular mass index were detected as the predictors of graft function. Conclusions: Increased morning blood pressure surge is associated with graft dysfunction, increased arterial stiffness and LVMI that contribute to cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in renal transplant recipients.
