Abstract Background and Aims Latest classification of hypertension based on ambulatory blood pressure measurement was normotension (NT), white coat hypertension (WCHT), masked hypertension (MHT), and sustained hypertension (SHT). Recent studies suggest that WCHT, MHT, and SHT increase risk of target organ damage, particularly albuminuria, although the results were still inconsistent. Albuminuria is not only the sign of early glomerular damage in CKD patients, but also the signs of hypertension progression and predictors for cardiovascular events mortality. This study aims to compare the albuminuria risk among NT and WCHT, MHT, also SHT in CKD patients. Method We searched the literature comprehensively in online databases of Pubmed, EMBASE, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library to include all relevant studies using predefined terms until December 2020. We included studies that analyzed the albuminuria risk and compared the log2 urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) among NT and WCHT, MHT, or SHT in CKD patients. We used the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for Observational Study checklist for evaluating bias risks. Analysis of the studies was conducted to provide pooled Odds Ratio (OR) for albuminuria risk and standard mean difference (SMD) for log2 ACR comparison with 95% Confidence Interval (CI) with random-effect heterogeneity test. Results We included 7 observational studies met our inclusion criteria. WCHT increases albuminuria risk although not statistically significant (pooled OR = 1.72, 95%CI 0.97 to 3.07, p = 0.06, I2 = 75%), while MHT and SHT significantly increase albuminuria risk with pooled OR respectively 1.62 (95%CI 1.03 to 2.53, p = 0.04, I2 = 82%) and 3.17 (95%CI 1.66 to 6.05, p = 0.0005, I2 = 94%). Controlled hypertension significantly protects CKD patients against albuminuria risk based on log2 ACR comparison with WCHT (SMD = 0.52, 95%CI 0.38 to 0.67, p<0.00001, I2 = 0%), MHT (SMD = 0.34, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.49, p<0.0001, I2 = 39%), and SHT (SMD = 0.63, 95%CI 0.31 to 0.95, p=0.0001, I2 = 76%). Conclusion White coat hypertension, masked hypertension, and sustained hypertension increase albuminuria risks in CKD patients. However, further studies are needed to determine the causality.

White coat hypertension and masked hypertension are two conditions with a controversial role in the beginning and the progression of the cardiovascular disease. We focused our attention to the definition, the epidemiology, the pathophysiology and the clinical consequences of these two conditions, with an attention also to the management. This review was based on the papers found on PubMed and MEDLINE up to August 2015. The search terms used were <em>white coat hypertension</em>, <em>masked hypertension</em> in combination with <em>epidemiology, management and pathophysiology</em>.

Introduction: Mean daytime ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) values are considered to be lower than conventional BP (CBP) values, but data on this relation among younger individuals <50 years are scarce. To address this issue, we performed a collaborative analysis in a large group of participants representing a wide age range. Methods: CBP and 24-hour ABP were measured in 9550 individuals not taking BP lowering treatment from 13 population based cohorts. We compared the individual differences between daytime ABP and CBP according to 10-year age categories. Age-specific prevalences of white-coat hypertension and masked hypertension were calculated based on guideline-recommended thresholds. Results: Among individuals aged 18-30, 30-40 and 40-50 years, mean daytime systolic and diastolic ABP were significantly higher than the corresponding CBP (6.0, 5.2 and 4.7 mmHg for systolic BP; 2.5, 2.7 and 1.7 mmHg for diastolic BP, all p<0.0001) (Figure). Systolic and diastolic BP indices were similar in participants aged 50-60 years (p=0.20 and 0.11, respectively). In individuals aged 60-70 and ≥70 years, CBP was significantly higher than daytime ABP (5.0 and 13.0 mmHg for systolic BP; 2.0 and 4.2 mmHg for diastolic BP, all p<0.0001) (Figure). Accordingly, the prevalence of white coat hypertension exponentially increased from 2.2% to 19.5% from those aged 18-30 years to those aged ≥70 years, with some variation between men and women (prevalence 8.0% versus 6.1%, p=0.0003). Masked hypertension was more prevalent among men (21.1% versus 11.4%, p<0.0001). The age-specific prevalence of masked hypertension was 18.2%, 27.3%, 27.8%, 20.1% 13.6% and 10.2% in men, and 9.0%, 9.9%, 12.2%, 11.9%, 14.7% and 12.1% in women. Conclusions: In this large collaborative analysis we found that the relation between daytime ABP and CBP strongly varies by age. These findings may have important implications for the diagnosis of hypertension and its subtypes in clinical practice.

Background: It has been suggested that the diagnosis of sustained hypertension (SHTN), defined as clinic blood pressure (CBP) ≥140 or ≥90 mmHg plus a daytime ambulatory BP (ABP) ≥135 or ≥85 mmHg can be optimized by taking home BP (HBP) in those with high CBP, and obtaining ABP only if HBP is normal (<135/85). This study tested whether a higher cutoff value for CBP using Receiver Operator Curves (ROC) based on systolic and diastolic CBP for the diagnosis of SHT (95% specificity) would improve the efficiency of the algorithm for diagnosing SHT and reduce the number of subjects requiring HBP and ABP to establish the diagnosis. Methods and Results: We assessed CBP, ABP and HBP in 229 normotensive and untreated hypertensive subjects. CBP was high in 84 subjects. Of these, 74 (88%) had SHTN, and 10 (12%) white coat HTN (WCH- high CBP but normal ABP). With HBP, 69 (82%) had high HBP, and of these 63 (91%) had SHT. Based on traditional algorithm, 15 subjects require ABP monitoring to diagnose SHT, which would be confirmed in 11. Using the ROC algorithm, 55 of 84 subjects (50 SHT; 5 WCH) would be classified as ``hypertensive” (at or above the CBP cut-off); 29 subjects would fall below the cut-off and require HBP (with 24 having SHT); 5 subjects would require ABP. The sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing SHT were 100% and 40% for the traditional algorithm, and 100% and 20% for the ROC algorithm. Conclusions: The ROC algorithm is as effective as the traditional algorithm for diagnosing SHT, and requires fewer HBPs (29 vs. 84) and ABPs (5 vs. 15). Therefore, this algorithm may have widespread indications for the screening of ambulatory hypertension.
