Implication

May support closer monitoring of borderline hypertensive men with elevated basal DBP or daytime SBP; hypothesis-generating and should not change practice yet.

Structured PICO

Do basal blood pressure and ambulatory 24 h blood pressure monitoring predict the development of established hypertension in male borderline hypertensives?

P
Population
143 male borderline hypertensives aged 35 to 45, screened from a population cohort
I
Intervention
Ambulatory 24 h blood pressure monitoring and basal blood pressure assessment
O
Outcome
Development of established hypertension (causal diastolic BP > 95 mm Hg) at 1 yearsurrogate

Basal diastolic blood pressure and daytime 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure are independent predictors of progression to established hypertension in borderline hypertensive men.
