Key result
Patients with retinal vein occlusion had significantly higher 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure compared to controls and a 1.81 times higher odds of being a non-dipper.
Case-Control (n=51)
No
Suggests ambulatory BP monitoring relevance in retinal vein occlusion; leaves open causal role and need for prospective trials.

Park et al. (2013) conducted a case-control in Retinal vein occlusion (n=51). 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring vs. Controls without retinal vein occlusion or hypertension history was evaluated on 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure (mmHg) (p=0.007). Patients with retinal vein occlusion had significantly higher 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure compared to controls and a 1.81 times higher odds of being a non-dipper.
