Why the study?
Does type 2 diabetes increase the prevalence of impaired diurnal blood pressure patterns in normotensive and hypertensive patients compared to non-diabetic controls?
Does type 2 diabetes increase the prevalence of impaired diurnal blood pressure patterns in normotensive and hypertensive patients compared to non-diabetic controls?
Type 2 diabetes is associated with a significantly higher prevalence of impaired diurnal blood pressure patterns (non-dipping), regardless of whether patients are normotensive or hypertensive.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Supports ambulatory BP monitoring consideration in diabetes; leaves open whether non-dipping warrants targeted intervention.
Fogari et al. (1993) studied this question.
