Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to identify 24-h blood pressure (BP) characteristics after acute stroke in Indian hospitalized patients.
Methods: In total, 769 patients [284 women (36.9%)] admitted at a hospital in South India were analyzed. Of these, 364 patients (47.3%) had recently experienced stroke. All patients underwent ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) so that ABPM patterns and ABPM risk parameters of stroke and non-stroke patients could be compared. Additionally, to investigate the relationship between ABPM parameters and stroke, a stepwise logistic regression analysis was employed.
Results: Stroke patients had significantly higher BP than non-stroke patients (24-h ABP: 145.0 ± 22.1 vs. 133.7 ± 20.5 mmHg, P < 0.001), with similar dipping status. ABPM parameters mostly associated with stroke (all P < 0.001) were: nighttime [odds ratios (OR): 1.587, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.341-1.885], 24-h (1.584, 1.34-1.881), minimum nighttime (1.582, 1.339-1.879), daytime (1.540, 1.304-1.827), and morning SBP (1.517, 1.287-1.797). Non-dipping status was relatively more common in stroke patients (79% vs. 71%, P < 0.05) but dipping percentage did not show a significant linear relationship with stroke.
Conclusion: Several ABPM characteristics were strongly associated with stroke in Indian hospitalized patients. Specifically, minimum nighttime and average morning SBP may be considered as important and practical parameters for its relationship with stroke.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
