Abstract:
Objective: To explore characteristics and influencing factors for blood pressure variability (BPV) in aged patients with H type hypertension.Methods: A total of 100 patients with essential hypertension, who were treated in our hospital from Dec 2012 to Dec 2013, were selected.According to serum level of homocysteine (Hcy), patients were divided into pure hypertension group (n=42, Hcy<15.4 μmol/L) and H type hypertension group (n=58, Hcy≥15.4 μmol/L).All patients received 24h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24hABPM), and BPV indexes were recorded and compared between two groups.Correlation among BPV indexes and general data were analyzed, and multi-factor linear regression analysis was used to analyze influencing factors for BPV indexes.Results: Compared with pure hypertension group, there were significant rise in 24h systolic blood pressure standard deviation [24hSSD, (12.80±2.23) vs.(16.01±3.11)], daytime SSD [dSSD, (11.58±2.30) vs.(13.86±2.26)] and nighttime SSD [nSSD, (9.41±1.64) vs.(11.71±2.34)] in H type hypertension group, P<0.05 or <0.01.Pearson correlation analysis indicated that Hcy, total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were significantly positively correlated with 24SSD, dSSD and nSSD (r=0.201~0.508, P<0.05 or <0.01).Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that Hcy and TC were significantly positively correlated with 24SSD, dSSD and nSSD (B=0.194~0.546, P<0.05 or <0.01).Conclusion: Systolic blood pressure variability in aged patients with H type hypertension is significantly higher than that of patients with pure hypertension,their serum Hcy level, TC elevating level are significantly positively correlated with systolic blood pressure variability and are major influencing factors for BPV in these patients.
