Is blunted diurnal blood pressure variation associated with a subsequent decline in glomerular filtration rate?
Blunted diurnal blood pressure variation is an independent predictor of subsequent renal function deterioration.
Blunted diurnal blood pressure variation is associated with a subsequent deterioration in renal function that is independent of SBP load and other risk factors for renal impairment.
Davidson et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
