Key result
The morning rise of blood pressure was significantly correlated with the tunica media to internal lumen ratio of subcutaneous small resistance arteries (r = 0.52, P < 0.001 for MoR1).
Why the study?
Is the morning rise of blood pressure associated with structural alterations of small resistance arteries in patients with essential hypertension?
Cross-Sectional (n=64)

Morning BP rise was associated with small artery remodeling in hypertension; hypothesis-generating for longitudinal vascular outcome studies.
Rizzoni et al. (2007) conducted a cross-sectional in essential hypertension (n=64). Morning rise of blood pressure (MoR) was evaluated on Correlation between tunica media to internal lumen ratio (M/L) of subcutaneous small resistance arteries and morning rise of blood pressure (MoR) (r = 0.52, p=<0.001). The morning rise of blood pressure was significantly correlated with the tunica media to internal lumen ratio of subcutaneous small resistance arteries (r = 0.52, P < 0.001 for MoR1).
