Abstract
Whether arteriosclerosis can influence the hypertension control remains incompletely understood. We hypothesized that higher arteriosclerosis may be associated with uncontrolled hypertension. Arteriosclerosis was assessed by carotid femoral artery pulse wave velocity (CF-PWV) and uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] ≥130 mm Hg or diastolic BP ≥80 mm Hg). The multivariable-adjusted logistic regression was used for analysis. A total of 1,428 patients with essential hypertension (mean age 68 years, 49.6% male) were enrolled into the study from 2010 to 2017. The BP was uncontrolled in 50.7% of the participants and the mean level of CF-PWV was 12.3 m/s. All the cardiovascular risk factors were worse and CF-PWV was higher in patients with uncontrolled hypertension (all p < 0.05). Multivariable-adjusted logistic regression analysis showed that CF-PWV as a continuous variable (odd ratio [OR] 1.093, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.046-1.142) was independently associated with uncontrolled hypertension, after male (OR 1.511) and total cholesterol (OR 1.167), followed by body mass index (OR 1.092), fasting plasma glucose (OR 1.075), and creatinine (OR 1.010) (all p < 0.05). As a binary variable, CF-PWV >12 m/s was also independently associated with uncontrolled hypertension (OR 1.690, 95% CI 1.320-2.164, p < 0.05). Arteriosclerosis is independently associated with uncontrolled BP in patients with hypertension.
期刊介绍:
The ''Journal of Vascular Research'' publishes original articles and reviews of scientific excellence in vascular and microvascular biology, physiology and pathophysiology. The scope of the journal covers a broad spectrum of vascular and lymphatic research, including vascular structure, vascular function, haemodynamics, mechanics, cell signalling, intercellular communication, growth and differentiation. JVR''s ''Vascular Update'' series regularly presents state-of-the-art reviews on hot topics in vascular biology. Manuscript processing times are, consistent with stringent review, kept as short as possible due to electronic submission. All articles are published online first, ensuring rapid publication. The ''Journal of Vascular Research'' is the official journal of the European Society for Microcirculation. A biennial prize is awarded to the authors of the best paper published in the journal over the previous two years, thus encouraging young scientists working in the exciting field of vascular biology to publish their findings.
