Abstract Introduction Hypertension (HTN) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; therefore, it is imperative to risk stratify potential kidney donors during evaluation. Clinic blood pressure (CBP) measurement is inaccurate in assessing presence or absence of HTN. There is paucity of data about utility of 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) during kidney donor evaluation. Methods 24-h ABPM is performed on all kidney donors at Mayo Clinic Florida. We conducted retrospective review of 264 consecutive potential kidney donors from 1/1/2012 to 12/31/2017. Demographic, comorbid conditions, laboratory results and 24-h ABPM data were collected. Subjects were divided into two groups: Group1: Subjects with no prior history of HTN and new diagnosis of HTN using 24-h ABPM; Group 2: Subjects with no prior history of hypertension and normal BP on 24-h ABPM. Results Baseline demographic included mean age 46.40 years, 39% males, 78.4% Caucasians, and mean BMI was 26.94. Twenty one subjects (8.0%) had prior diagnosis of HTN. Among 243 subjects without prior HTN, 62 (25.5%) were newly diagnosed with HTN using 24-h ABPM. CBP was high only in 27 out of 62 (43.6%) of newly diagnosed HTN subjects. Thirty-five subjects (14.4%) had masked HTN and 14 subjects (5.8%) had white-coat HTN. Newly diagnosed hypertensive subjects were more likely to be males as compared to Group 2 (53.2% vs 34.3% P = 0.008). There was a trend of more non-Caucasians subjects (30.6% vs 19.9% P = 0.08) and more active smokers (17.7% vs 11.6%, P = 0.054) in Group1 as compared to Group 2. Only 17 (27.4%) out of 62 newly diagnosed hypertensive subjects were deemed suitable for kidney donation as compared to 105 (58.0%) out of 181 normotensive subjects (P < 0.001). Conclusion In our cohort, use of ABPM resulted in new diagnosis of HTN in 1 out of 4 potential kidney donors. Newly diagnosed HTN was more common in men, those with non-Caucasian race, and in active smokers. There was a significantly reduced acceptance rate for kidney donation among newly diagnosed HTN subjects. Further studies are needed to determine the value of 24-h ABPM among these high risk groups.

Abstract Background and Aims Hypertension (HTN) and psychiatric disorders frequently co-exist in general population. Serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-norepinephrine re-uptake inhibitors (SNRIs) affect serotonin and norepinephrine and may lead to variation in blood pressure (BP). There is paucity of data on blood pressure variations using 24 hours ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) with the use of SSRIs/NSRIs. Method Subjects who underwent psychiatric evaluation and ABPM within six month of each other between 1/1/2012 to 12/31/2016 at Mayo Clinic Florida were identified using billing data. Demographics, co-morbidities, medications, ABPM, and laboratory results were retrospectively collected from medical records. Subjects were divided into groups – subjects with no psychiatric diagnosis and no psychiatric medicine (Group 1) and subjects with psychiatric diagnosis and on SSRIs/NSRIs (Group 2). BP systolic and diastolic levels (day time, night time) were compared between groups controlling for age, sex, race, presence or absence of HTN, diabetes mellitus (DM) and smoking. Single and multivariable linear regression models were used to analyze group differences. Results Total of 367 subjects met inclusion criteria – Group 1=135; Group 2=232. The subjects in group 2 were older (median age 57 yrs vs 47 yrs p&lt;0.001), white (69.8 vs 60% p=0.002), smokers (15.9 vs 3.0% p&lt;0.001), history of HTN (62.5 vs 9.6%), and DM (21.1% vs 0%). ABPM showed that subjects in group 2 had higher median daytime systolic BP (131 vs 124), higher median night time systolic BP (120 vs 110), and higher median night time diastolic BP (68 vs 63). Multivariable linear regression controlling for age, sex, race, presence or absence of HTN, DM, and smoking showed that use of SSRIs/NSRIs (group 2) was significantly associated with higher night time systolic BP (8.36 mm; 95% CI 4.2, 12.5; p &lt;0.0001) and higher night time diastolic BP (4.6 mm, 95% CI 1.9, 7.29, p=0.001). On subgroup analysis comparing subjects with use of SSRIs vs NSRIs, there was no statistically significant difference in the daytime or night time systolic or diastolic BP. Conclusion Use of SSRIs and NSRIs are associated with higher nocturnal systolic and diastolic BP, which can potentially increase the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcome in this population. Higher nocturnal BP may be due to ongoing sympathetic activation during sleep with serotonin and norepinephrine with the use of SRRIs and NSRI. Further well designed prospective studies using ABPM are needed to determine the risk of nocturnal hypertension with the use of SSRIs/NSRIs that could have potential adverse cardiovascular outcome.

Abstract Background and Aims There is variability among transplant centers in the acceptance of living donor candidates with well-controlled hypertension. Increased gestational hypertension and preeclampsia are more common in donors than in the general population especially if the donor is hypertensive at baseline. The purpose of this survey is to form a consensus about the evaluation of marginal live kidney donors (women and men) with hypertension. Method This is a cross-sectional survey of nephrologists and transplant surgeons about Suitability and Acceptance of The Marginal live Kidney Donors. The survey was sent to nephrologists in different countries and it was also distributed through AST & ERA-EDTA. Results A total of 122 practitioners from 22 countries responded to the survey. Of those, (N=96, 80.2%) were nephrologists and (n=23 19.83%) were transplant surgeons. The majority (45%) of the respondents were from USA. Most of the respondents (N=85, 69.7%) would allow a multiparous female (MPW) with mild and controlled hypertension (on a single blood pressure medication) who is not planning to have more children to donate. The rest would either advise against donation unless there is no alternative donor (n=23, 18.85%), or decline it altogether (n=14, 11.5%). In contrast, more respondents would reject a primiparous donor woman (PPW) with the same clinical scenario who considers having children (n=51, 42.2%, P=0.00001 ), or accept it only if there is no alternative donor (n=46, 38.0%, P=0.0009). Furthermore, most would not allow donation of a 20 years old male ( M) with an apparent white coat hypertension if his 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring shows non-dipping nocturnal pattern (n=67, 54.9%), or only accept it if there is no alternative donor (n=36, 29.5%). When comparing the rejection rate among the three donors: 11% for MPW, 41% for PPW and 54% for M. (P = 0.0001 for MPW vs PPW; P=0.00001 for MPW vs M; P=0.04 for PPW vs M). Conclusion Most of the nephrologists and transplant surgeons will clear mulptiparous women with mild and controlled hypertension for kidney donation as long as there no further plans for pregnancy. However, the majority of respondents will not clear a hypertensive primiparous due to the increased risk of gestational hypertension and preeclampsia after kidney donation. Most would be also reluctant to accept very young male donors if they show indicators of higher risk of developing hypertension in future.

Childhood hypertension’s increasing prevalence has generally been linked to the obesity epidemic. We observed that a significant proportion of children referred to our pediatric center with documented office hypertension are nonobese and have a history of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). To define the extent of this anecdotal observation, we performed a retrospective analysis of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) tests which in our center are routinely performed in newly referred children suspected of hypertension. Twenty-one percent (48 of 227 new referrals) had a history of ADHD, and 81% of them were treated with psychostimulant medications at the time of their ABPM test. Children in this group had a significantly lower average BMIz-score compared with the rest of the children (0.18 versus 0.75) and were significantly more likely to have abnormally elevated wake systolic loads on ABPM (38% versus 4%). The overall proportion of children with any abnormality on ABPM was comparable in both groups (46% versus 40%).Conclusion. A significant proportion of children suspected of hypertension have ADHD which may be related to higher wake systolic BP values. The prevalence of hypertension among children with ADHD will have to be determined in prospective studies.

Arterial hypertension (AH) is a common modifiable cardiovascular risk factor. Despite the wide choice of antihypertensive drugs, according to epidemiological studies, just over 20% of patients demonstrate effective control of hypertension. Failure to achieve the target values of blood pressure (BP) determines a high probability of developing cardiovascular events, which is also true for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). However, there is evidence that individuals who have undergone PCI show a higher percentage of achieving the target blood pressure levels. Aim of the study was to evaluate the dynamics of blood pressure indicators in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes mellitus, depending on the fact of performing PCI.Material and methods. The study was conducted at federal state budgetary scientific institution research institute of complex issues of cardiovascular diseases as a prospective, open, not comparative. The study included 75 patients with stable CAD and type 2 diabetes who regularly received therapy for at least 1 month prior to the start of participation in this study. The majority of patients 45 (60%) are represented by males. The median age was 52.64±6.96 years. 44 patients (58.81%) had a history of myocardial infarction, and 46 patients (61.33%) had previously undergone myocardial revascularization, history of stroke had 5 patients (6.66%). All patients according to the daily blood pressure monitoring at the 1st visit had average daily blood pressure values above 130/80 mmHg. Participants were divided into 2 groups: 43 patients had indications for routine PCI at the time of inclusion in the study, 32 patients had no indications for revascularization. The groups did not have significant differences in clinical and anamnestic characteristics, and regular significant differences were noted in relation to previously undergone revascularization (46.51 and 81.25%, respectively, p=0.0022) and the SYNTAX Score (14.39±9.20 and 6.13±8.28, respectively, p=0.0001). During 4 visits (1 visit, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months), ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) was performed using the BiPiLAB system.Results. Initially according ABPM parameters group without the alleged PCI had greater variability in systolic blood pressure (SBP) in the daytime, higher values of mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP) at night, more time index of hypertension DBP at night. After 1 month of follow — up (for the group with PCI 1 month after the procedure), there were significant differences in the average daily SBP and DBP, the index of the time of hypertension DBP in the daytime, and the average daily SBP. Patients who underwent revascularization had lower ABPM values. The previously described differences in the night time DBP and the index of hypertension time at night were preserved. After 3 months of follow-up, significant differences were observed only in the indicators of night time SAD and DBP. At the end of the study (6 months of follow-up), the groups had differences only in the indicators of mean diastolic pressure at night.Conclusion. Patients who underwent PCI for 1 month after the procedure have a significant tendency to normalize (compared to the group without revascularization) blood pressure indicators. However, over time, the effect «escapes». Most likely, the short-term improvement in blood pressure is due to a temporary improvement in treatment adherence after an invasive procedure.

The Impact

The study examined the effectiveness of drug correction of high numbers of blood pressure (BP) by means of modern groups of antihypertensive drugs, the effect of a fixed combination of perindopril and indapamide on circadian blood pressure monitoring, and a commitment to patients of antihypertensive therapy, based on the opened simple randomization three groupswere formed: 1st comprised of 21 patients with isolated systolic hypertension (ISAH) and 22 patients with systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDAH) - they all received monotherapy with calcium antagonists (amlodipine 10 mg/day); Group 2 - of 16 ISAH patients and 24 SDAH patients - who received monotherapy with perindopril (2 mg/day) and the third group - of 17 patients with ISAH and 14 patients with SDAH - who received combination therapy with the drug noliprel (Servier) with a fixed combination of perindopril (2 mg) and indapamide of 0,625 mg. Treatment efficacy was assessed primarily to reduce the absolute numbers of blood pressure, and taken into account as a reduction in systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), uncontrolled drop of which, according to the literature, in elderly patients can have fatal consequences

Background: The aim of this study was evaluation of nocturnal dipping of blood pressure in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients and determining the effect of dipping on outcomes at 12 months follow-up.Methods: This was an observational, single-centre, retrospective study that included STEMI patients, performed in a tertiary care hospital in India from November 2016 to October 2017. The primary endpoint of the study was the assessment of outcomes at 12 months.  The patients were divided into two groups on the basis of blood pressure dipping, i.e., patients with positive dipping were considered in group 1 and patients with negative dipping were considered in group 2.Results: Total 43 patients were included in the study. Group 1 consisted of 27 patients and Group 2 consisted of 16 patients. Mean 24 hr systolic blood pressure (SBP) and asleep SBP in Group 1 patients was 128.15±18.05 mmHg and 122.67±18.94 mmHg, respectively. Mean 24 hr diastolic (DBP) and asleep DBP in Group 1 patients was 78.07±10.73 mmHg and 73.41±12.35 mmHg, respectively. In the patients with non-dipping, mean 24 hr SBP and asleep SBP was 130.56±27.32 mmHg and 135.13±29.58 mmHg, respectively. Mean 24 hr DBP and asleep DBP was 76.00±15.40 mmHg and 79.69±17.05 mmHg, respectively. The mean percentage of asleep dipping of SBP was 5.7±6.7% in Group 1 and -4.6±6.82% in Group 2. Similarly, the mean percentage of asleep dipping of DBP was 7.6±9.0% in Group 1 and -6.3±9.1% in Group 2.Conclusions: In view of the results, it can be concluded that ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in patients with STEMI can provide a significant prognostication of the future events.

Masked hypertension (MH) is traditionally diagnosed with 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24-ABPM). This is relatively costly and could cause discomfort during the night. We studied the validity of daytime ABP (DT-ABPM) in young National Guard soldiers and determined the prevalence in comparison to the standard 24-ABPM. A prospective study of 196 soldiers aged 21-50 years, without a history of hypertension or antihypertensive medication use. Each participant was fitted with a 12h-ABPM. Patients were diagnosed with MH if the office blood pressure (OBP) was <140/90 mmHg and the average DT-ABPM was ≥135/85 mmHg. By pairing the average OBP with the 12 h-ABPM, the prevalence of MH was estimated as 18/196 (9.2%), the SBP MH (systolic blood pressure) of 8.2% and the DPB MH (diastolic blood pressure) of 3.1%.  When we compared the daytime prevalence with the 24 h-ABPM, and the average OBP, the prevalence of MH was 29/196 (14.8%). No statistically significant difference was noted (kappa=0.74; 95% CI: 0.59 to 0.88). We conclude that DT-ABPM is a good method and convenient to detect MH, with no statistically significant difference when compared to the 24 h-ABPM. The prevalence of MH in young healthy soldiers was unexpectedly high.
