Clinical and Experimental Hypertension (Jul 2018)
Correlation between clinic, cumulative, 24h-ambulatory systolic blood pressure, and chronic kidney damage in Chinese elderly
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate whether clinic, cumulative, and 24h ambulatory systolic blood pressure (SBP) was associated with chronic kidney damage, defind as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) .05). Cumulative SBP exposure seems inferior to other measurement in indentifying chronic kidney damage, including decreased GFR and microalbuminuria.
