AbstractObjectiveIn our previous study, the prevalence of childhood masked hypertension was 11%. This study aims to assess the left ventricular mass index of persistent masked hypertension and determine the factors of elevated left ventricular mass index in Hong Kong Chinese adolescents from a community cohort.DesignCommunity prospective cohort study, follow-up of a case-control study in community.SubjectsPatients with masked hypertension at baseline were invited to recheck ambulatory blood pressure for the persistence of masked hypertension.ResultsA total of 144 out of 165 patients with masked hypertension in the 2011/2012 ambulatory blood pressure survey consented to participate in the study. In all, 48 patients were found to have persistent masked hypertension by ambulatory blood pressure rechecking and were matched with normotensive controls by sex, age, and body height. The left ventricular mass (117.3±39.9 g versus 87.0±28.2 g versus 102.0±28.2 g) and left ventricular mass index (30.1±8.4 g/m2.7 versus 23.9±6.3 g/m2.7 versus 25.1±5.7 g/m2.7) were significantly higher in the persistent masked hypertension group (p<0.0001) compared with the patients without persistent masked hypertension and controls. In multivariate linear regression analysis, left ventricular mass index was found to be higher in male gender (β=4.874, p<0.0001) and the patients with persistent masked hypertension (β=2.796, p=0.003). In addition, left ventricular mass index was positively associated with body mass index z-score (β=3.045, p<0.0001) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration (β=1.634, p=0.015).ConclusionsPersistent masked hypertension in adolescents is associated with elevated left ventricular mass index.

Background/Aim. Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), apart from arterial hypertension, is a risk factor for electrophysiologic heart condition disorder and sudden cardiac death. The aim of this study was to examine a relationship between complex ventricular arrhythmias and parameters of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in the patients with arterial hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), as well as their prognostic significance during a five-year follow-up. Methods. Ninety patients with arterial hypertension and LVH were included in this study (mean age 55.2?8.3 years). There were 35 healthy people in the control group (mean age 54.5?7.1 years). Left ventricular mass index was 171.9?32.4 g/m2 in the LVH group and 102.4?13.3 g/m2 in the control group. Clinical examination, echocardiogram, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and 24-hour holter monitoring were done in all of the examined persons. Ventricular arrhythmias were classified by the Lown classification. Results. In the LVH group there were 54 (60.0%) of the patients with ? III Lown class. The best predictor of a Lown class were left ventricular mass index by using multivariate stepwise regression analyses (? = 0.212; p < 0.05) and small decrease of diastolic blood pressure during the night (? = -0.293; p < 0.01). The main predictor of bad prognosis was left ventricular mass index during a five year follow-up (? = 0.302; p < 0.01, for stepwise regression model: F = 8.828; p < 0.01, adjusted R2 = 0.091). Conclusion. Left ventricular arrhythmias are frequent in patients with lower decrease of blood pressure during the night. There was no correlation between the degree of ventricular arrhythmias and parameters from 24-hour blood pressure monitoring and a five-year prognosis in the patients with arterial hypertension and LVH. A bad five-year follow-up outcome of hypertensive disease depends on left ventricular mass index.

The aim is the analysis of hyperuricemia influence on the heart features in patients with arterial hypertension. Materials and methods: We include 75 patients with arterial hypertension which were divided in two groups according to the level of uric acid in the blood, 30 practically healthy people. Patients from the I group (n = 40) had arterial hypertension and coexistent hyperuricemia; ІІ (n = 35) – arterial hypertension. Left ventricular mass index was determined for left ventricular hypertrophy confirmation. We used clinical, anthropometric, biochemical, instrumental, statistical method. Serum uric acid level was observed by the reaction with uricase. Left ventricular mass index was calculated as left ventricular mass to body surface area ratio. The results were analyzed statistically by SPSS 21 and Graphpad. Results: Left ventricular mass index was significantly higher (р = 0,0498) in patients from the І group (109,7 ± 3,21) g/m2 comparable with the ІІ (97,6 ± 5,35) g/m2 and increased in proportion to the biggest level of uric acid (r = 0,31; p = 0,04) in patients with arterial hypertension and hyperuricemia. Conclusions: Concentric and excentric left ventricular hypertrophy, increased left ventricular mass index proportionally to uric acid levels (r = 0,31; p = 0,04) is the confirmation of important role of hyperuricemia in the left ventricular hypertrophy development in patients with arterial hypertension.
