Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the inlfuence of different blood pressure (BP) circadian rhythm on cardiac function in hypertensive patients.
Methods: A total of 180 hypertensive patients with well controlled day-time blood pressure were divided into 3 groups. Dipper group, n=30, Non-dipper group, n=99 and Reverse dipper group, n=51. The relationship between cardiac function, relevant clinical index and blood pressure circadian rhythm were analyzed.
Results: The mean systolic and diastolic BP, BP classiifcation and the antihypertensive medication were similar among 3 groups.①The ratio of peak mitral E wave to peak mitral annulus E' wave (E/E') increased accordingly from Dipper group, Non-dipper group and Reverse-dipper group as (8.1 ± 2.4), (8.6 ± 2.5) and (9.6 ± 3.2), P<0.05. ②Left atrial volume index (LAVi) in Reverse-dipper and Non-dipper groups were higher than that in Dipper group as (43.8 ± 11.8) ml/m2, (40.7 ± 9.8) ml/m2 and (36.6 ± 8.5) ml/m2, P<0.05 or P<0.01. ③E/E' was positively related to nocturnal systolic BP and age, negatively related to nocturnal BP decline rate (nocturnal BPR); E/E' was independently related to age and BPR. LAVi was positively related to nocturnal systolic BP, pulse pressure, age and hypertension course, negatively related to the mean diastolic BP, day-time diastolic BP and BPR; LAVi was independently related to BPR, pulse pressure and hypertension course. Left ventricular ejection fraction had no statistic differences among 3 groups.
Conclusion: Abnormal blood pressure circadian rhythm was associated with the cardiac injury in hypertensive patients. The cardiac injury increased accordingly from Non-dipper group to Reverse-dipper group and the main damage was in diastolic function.
