Short-term reproducibility of ambulatory blood pressure measurements: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 35 observational studies.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:A systematic review on the reproducibility of ambulatory blood pressure measurements (ABPM) has not yet been conducted. This meta-analysis compared 24-h/daytime/night-time SBP and DBP mean values and SBP/DBP nocturnal dipping status from ABPMs in participants with or without hypertension. METHODS:Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CINAHL Complete databases were searched for articles published before 3 May 2019. Eligible studies reporting a 24-h ABPM repeated at least once within 1 month were included. The mean daytime/night-time/24-h BP values, percentage of nocturnal dipping, and proportion of nondippers were compared between the first and second day of measurements, and the proportion of participants with inconsistent dipping status were estimated using a random effect model. RESULTS:Population-based analysis found a 0-1.1 mmHg difference between the first and second ABPM for 24-h/daytime/night-time SBP and DBP and 0-0.5% for percentage of SBP/DBP nocturnal dipping. The proportion of non-dippers was not different between the first and second ABPM. Intra-individual analysis found that the 95% limit of agreements (LOA) for SBP/DBP were wide and the 95% LOA for daytime SBP, common reference to diagnose hypertension, ranged -16.7 to 18.4 mmHg. Similarly, 32% of participants had inconsistent nocturnal dipping status. CONCLUSION:ABPM had excellent reproducibility at the population level, favouring its application for research purposes; but reproducibility of intra-individual BP values and dipping status from a 24-h ABPM was limited. The available evidence was limited by the lack of high-quality studies and lack of studies in non-Western populations.

Project description:BACKGROUND:and objectives Our objective was to determine whether clinic BPs (taken at either a single visit or two sequential visits) are inferior to ambulatory BPs in their ability to discriminate risk of adverse outcomes in children with CKD. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS:We included 513 participants of the CKD in Children Study who had clinic BPs and 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring performed during similar timeframes. Predictors of interest were systolic BPs taken at a single visit or two repeated visits within a 1-year period compared with mean wake and sleep systolic ambulatory BPs. Outcomes were left ventricular hypertrophy and ESKD. We determined the ability for each BP parameter to provide risk discrimination using c statistics. RESULTS:During mean follow-up of 3.5 years, 123 participants developed ESKD. In cross-sectional unadjusted analysis, every 0.1 increase in systolic BP index was associated with a 2.0 times higher odds of left ventricular hypertrophy (95% confidence interval, 1.5 to 2.8) by clinic BPs versus 1.8 times higher odds (95% confidence interval, 1.3 to 2.4) by ambulatory wake BP. The c statistic was highest for clinic BP (c=0.65; 95% confidence interval, 0.58 to 0.73) but similar to ambulatory wake BP (c=0.64; 95% confidence interval, 0.57 to 0.71) for the discrimination of left ventricular hypertrophy. In longitudinal unadjusted analysis, every 0.1 increase in systolic BP index was associated with a higher risk of ESKD using repeated clinic (hazard ratio, 1.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.3 to 1.8) versus ambulatory wake BP (hazard ratio, 1.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.3 to 2.0). Unadjusted c statistics were the same for wake (c=0.61; 95% confidence interval, 0.56 to 0.67) and clinic systolic BPs (c=0.61; 95% confidence interval, 0.55 to 0.66) for discriminating risk of ESKD. CONCLUSIONS:Clinic BPs taken in a protocol-driven setting are not consistently inferior to ambulatory BP in the discrimination of BP-related adverse outcomes in children with CKD.

Project description: INTRODUCTION: Published data on hypertension incidence and management in Anderson-Fabry disease are scant and the contribution of elevated blood pressure to organ damage is not well recognized.AimTherefore, we have assessed blood pressure values and their possible correlations with clinical findings in a well described cohort of Fabry patients.MethodsBetween January 2015 and May 2019, all adult Fabry patients (n = 24 females, n = 8 males) referred to our institute were prospectively enrolled. During the first examination patient's genotype and clinical characteristics were recorded. Blood pressure data were obtained by standard observed office measurements followed, within 6 months, by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and home self-recordings. Organ involvement, including kidneys, heart and brain, was monitored over time. Consequently, patients were defined as clinically stable or progressive through the Fabry Stabilization Index.ResultsThe standard office measurements have diagnosed hypertension in three (9.37%) patients, but the ambulatory monitoring showed elevated blood pressure in six (18.75%) patients, revealing three cases of masked hypertension. All the hypertensive patients were females and, compared with normotensive subjects, they presented a lower glomerular filtration rate (p < 0.05) and a more advanced cardiac hypertrophy (p < 0.05). Four (66.7%) of them were diagnosed with a progressive form of the disease through the Fabry Stabilization Index while the majority of the normotensive group (84.6%, n = 19) was stable over time. No correlation was found between the prevalence of hypertension and the type of mutations causing Fabry disease.ConclusionHypertension can be found in a restricted portion of clinically stable Fabry patients. In contrast, patients presenting with a progressive organ involvement, particularly renal impairment, have a major risk of developing uncontrolled blood pressure, and should be followed carefully. Moreover, the ambulatory blood pressure monitoring proved to be useful to reveal masked hypertension, which can contribute to the progressive worsening of the organ damage. Therefore, a proper diagnosis and therapy of hypertension may improve the outcome of Fabry patients.
