Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and hypertension are two important modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular disease and mortality. Numerous studies have highlighted the interplay between these two conditions. We provide a critical review of the current literature on the role of the OSA as a risk factor for hypertension and its effect on blood pressure (BP). We discuss several key topics: the effect of OSA on nocturnal BP, BP response to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment, CPAP effect on BP in refractory hypertension, the role of OSA in BP variability (BPV), and maladaptive cardiac remodeling mediated by OSA's effect on BP. Finally, we discuss the unique aspects of ethnicity and social determinants of health on OSA with a focus on Asian populations and the disparity in BP control and cardiovascular outcomes.

Abstract
Circadian and diurnal variation in cerebral blood flow directly contributes to the diurnal variation in the risk of stroke, either through factors that trigger stroke or due to impaired compensatory mechanisms. Cerebral blood flow results from the integration of systemic hemodynamics, including heart rate, cardiac output, and blood pressure, with cerebrovascular regulatory mechanisms, including cerebrovascular reactivity, autoregulation, and neurovascular coupling. We review the evidence for the circadian and diurnal variation in each of these mechanisms and their integration, from the detailed evidence for mechanisms underlying the nocturnal nadir and morning surge in blood pressure to identifying limited available evidence for circadian and diurnal variation in cerebrovascular compensatory mechanisms. We, thus, identify key systemic hemodynamic factors related to the diurnal variation in the risk of stroke but particularly identify the need for further research focused on cerebrovascular regulatory mechanisms.

Impact of sleep-disordered breathing on overnight changes in arterial stiffness in patients with acute heart failure. Hypertens Res 2024; 47:342-351. [PMID: 37783770 DOI: 10.1038/s41440-023-01448-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023]
Abstract
Overnight increases in arterial stiffness associated with sleep-disordered breathing may adversely affect patients with acute heart failure. Thus, we investigated overnight changes in arterial stiffness and their association with sleep-disordered breathing in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure. Consecutive patients with acute heart failure were enrolled. All participants underwent overnight full polysomnography following the initial improvement of acute signs and symptoms of acute heart failure. The arterial stiffness parameter, cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), was assessed before and after polysomnography. Overall, 60 patients (86.7% men) were analyzed. CAVI significantly increased overnight (from 8.4 ± 1.6 at night to 9.1 ± 1.7 in the morning, P < 0.001) in addition to systolic and diastolic blood pressure (from 114.1 mmHg to 121.6 mmHg, P < 0.001; and from 70.1 mmHg to 78.2 mmHg, P < 0.001, respectively). Overnight increase in CAVI (ΔCAVI ≥ 0) was observed in 42 patients (70%). The ΔCAVI ≥ 0 group was likely to have moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing (i.e., apnea-hypopnea index ≥15, 55.6% vs 80.9%, P = 0.047) and greater obstructive respiratory events (29.4% vs 58.5%, P = 0.041). In multivariable analysis, moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing and greater obstructive respiratory events were independently correlated with an overnight increase in CAVI (P = 0.033 and P = 0.042, respectively). In patients hospitalized for acute heart failure, arterial stiffness, as assessed by CAVI, significantly increased overnight. Moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing and obstructive respiratory events may play an important role in the overnight increase in cardio-ankle vascular index.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) have a heightened risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, namely hypertension. While seminal evidence indicates a causal role for sympathetic nerve activity in the hypertensive phenotype commonly observed in patients with OSA, no studies have investigated potential sex differences in the sympathetic regulation of blood pressure in this population. Supporting this exploration are large-scale observational data, as well as controlled interventional studies in healthy adults, indicating that sleep disruption increases blood pressure to a greater extent in females relative to males. Furthermore, females with severe OSA demonstrate a more pronounced hypoxic burden (i.e., disease severity) during rapid eye movement sleep when sympathetic nerve activity is greatest. These findings would suggest that females are at greater risk for the hemodynamic consequences of OSA and related sleep disruption. Accordingly, the purpose of this review is three-fold: (1) to review the literature linking sympathetic nerve activity to hypertension in OSA, (2) to highlight recent experimental data supporting the hypothesis of sex differences in the regulation of sympathetic nerve activity in OSA, and (3) to discuss the potential sex differences in peripheral adrenergic signaling that may contribute to, or offset, cardiovascular risk in patients with OSA.

Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) has been described as a risk factor for arterial hypertension (HT). One of the proposed mechanisms linking these conditions is non dipping (ND) pattern in nocturnal blood pressure, however evidence is variable and based on specific populations with underlying conditions. Data for OSA and ND in subjects residing at high altitude are currently unavailable. Objective Identify the prevalence and association of moderate to severe OSA with HT and ND pattern in hypertensive and non-hypertensive otherwise healthy middle-aged individuals in residing at high altitude (Bogotá:2640 mt) Methods Adult individuals with diagnosis of moderate to severe OSA underwent 24 hour- ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) between 2015 and 2017. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis were performed to identify predictors of HT and ND pattern. Results Ninety-three (93) individuals (male 62.4% and median age 55) were included in the final analysis. Overall, 30.1% showed a ND pattern in ABPM and 14.9% had diurnal and nocturnal hypertension. Severe OSA (higher apnea-hiponea index [AHI]) was associated with HT (p = 0.006), but not with ND patterns (p = 0.54) in multivariable regression. Smoking status and lowest oxygen saturation during respiratory events where independently associated with ND pattern (p = 0.04), whereas age (p = 0.001) was associated with HT. Conclusions In our sample, one in three individuals with moderate to severe OSA have non dipping patterns suggesting lack of straight association between OSA and ND. Older individuals who have higher AHI are more likely to have HT, and those who smoke have a higher risk of ND. These findings add aditional information to the multiple mechanisms involved in the relationship between OSA and ND pattern, and questions the routine use of 24-hour ABPM, particullary in our region, with limited resources and healthcare acces. However, further work with more robust methodology is needed to draw conclusions.

Abstract
The nondipping blood pressure (BP) pattern corresponds to a disruption in the circadian BP rhythm with an insufficient decrease in BP levels during nighttime sleep as observed using 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring. Patients with nondipping BP pattern have poorer renal and cardiovascular outcomes, independent of their average 24-hour BP levels. The pathophysiology of nondipping BP is complex and involves numerous mechanisms: perturbations of (1) the circadian rhythm, (2) the autonomic nervous system, and (3) water and sodium regulation. This review provides an outline of the pathways potentially involved in the nondipping BP profile in different conditions. A recent hypothesis is also discussed involving the role of gut microbiota in the dipping/nondipping patterns, via the fecal diet-derived short chain fatty acids.

Abstract
While the contribution of several physiological systems to arterial blood pressure regulation has been studied extensively, the role of normal and disrupted sleep as a modifiable determinant of blood pressure control, and in the pathophysiology of hypertension, has only recently emerged. Several sleep disorders, including sleep apnea and insomnia, are thought to contribute to the development of hypertension, although less attention is paid to the relationship between sleep duration and blood pressure independent of sleep disorders per se. Accordingly, this review focuses principally on the physiology of sleep and the consequences of abnormal sleep duration both experimentally and at the population level. Clinical implications for patients with insomnia who may or may not have abbreviated sleep duration are explored. As a corollary, we further review studies of the effects of sleep extension on blood pressure regulation. We also discuss epidemiological evidence suggesting that long sleep may also be associated with hypertension and describe the parabolic relationship between total sleep time and blood pressure. We conclude by highlighting gaps in the literature regarding the potential role of gut microbial health in the cross-communication of lifestyle patterns (exercise, diet, and sleep) with blood pressure regulation. Additionally, we discuss populations at increased risk of short sleep, and specifically the need to understand mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities in women, pregnancy, the elderly, and in African Americans.

Abstract
Rapid eye movement-related obstructive sleep apnea (REM-related OSA) is a polysomnographic phenotype. Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) fluctuations remain unclear in patients with REM-related OSA. We studied 27 patients with REM-related OSA, categorized as having REM-apnea-hypopnea index (REM-AHI) ≥ 5/h, REM-AHI/non-REM-AHI ≥ 2, and non-REM-AHI < 15/h. Beat-to-beat systolic BP (SBP) variability and nocturnal SBP fluctuation patterns using pulse transit time (PTT) were investigated. The maximum increase and average nocturnal SBP were significantly higher in males than in females (p = 0.003 and p = 0.008, respectively). The rate of non-dipping patterns in nocturnal SBP fluctuations was 63% in all patients (males, 70%; females, 50%). Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores in females were higher than those in males (8.4 ± 6.1 vs. 13.4 ± 5.4 points, p = 0.04; 43.8 ± 7.9 vs. 52 ± 11.6 points, p = 0.04, respectively). A high proportion of patients with REM-related OSA had a non-dipping pattern. Using PPT, we observed that in patients with REM-related OSA, SBP variability was greater in males. Despite clinical symptoms being slightly more severe in females, nocturnal SBP fluctuations should be considered in male patients with REM-related OSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dipping of blood pressure (BP) at night is a normal physiological phenomenon. However, a non-dipping pattern is associated with hypertension mediated organ damage, secondary forms of hypertension and poorer long-term outcome. Identifying a non-dipping pattern may be useful in assessing risk, aiding the decision to investigate for secondary causes, initiating treatment, assisting decisions on choice and timing of antihypertensive therapy, and intensifying salt restriction. OBJECTIVES To estimate the prevalence and factors associated with non-dipping pattern and determine the effect of 6 months of three antihypertensive regimens on the dipping pattern among Black African hypertensive patients. METHODS This was a secondary analysis of the CREOLE Study which was a randomized, single blind, three-group trial conducted in 10 sites in 6 Sub-Saharan African countries. The participants were 721 Black African patients, aged between 30 and 79 years, with uncontrolled hypertension and a baseline 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). Dipping was calculated from the average day and average night systolic blood pressure measures. RESULTS The prevalence of non-dipping pattern was 78% (564 of 721). Factors that were independently associated with non-dipping were: serum sodium > 140 mmol/l (OR = 1.72, 95% CI 1.17-2.51, p-value 0.005), a higher office systolic BP (OR = 1.03, 95% CI 1.01-1.05, p-value 0.003) and a lower office diastolic BP (OR = 0.97, 95% CI 0.95-0.99, p-value 0.03). Treatment allocation did not change dipping status at 6 months (McNemar's Chi2 0.71, p-value 0.40). CONCLUSION There was a high prevalence of non-dipping among Black Africans with uncontrolled hypertension. ABPM should be considered more routinely in Black Africans with uncontrolled hypertension, if resources permit, to help personalise therapy. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms and causes of non-dipping pattern and if targeting night-time BP improves clinical outcomes.

Effect of Chronotherapy of Antihypertensives in Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Control Trial. Indian J Nephrol 2021; 31:9-15. [PMID: 33994681 PMCID: PMC8101668 DOI: 10.4103/ijn.ijn_322_19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2019] [Revised: 12/13/2019] [Accepted: 04/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: There is a higher prevalence of non-dipping pattern in hypertensive chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Nocturnal hypertension has been shown to predict cardiovascular mortality and morbidity and is often superior to daytime blood pressure. We studied the effect of shifting or adding antihypertensive to night time on blood pressure profile of CKD III-IV patients. Methods: In this single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial, eligible participants were adults from eastern India aged 18–65 years with CKD stages 3 and 4, with a non-dipping pattern on ambulatory blood pressure monitor (ABPM). The intervention group received all the antihypertensives in the night time whereas the standard care group continued to take the medication in the morning. Both groups were followed up for 1 year. The primary outcome was the number of patients changed from non-dippers to dippers in the standard care group and intervention group. Secondary outcomes included a change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and change in the cardiac structure. Results: 39 patients in the intervention group and 36 patients in the standard care group were analyzed. 10 patients (26%) reverted to dipping pattern in the intervention group as compared to none in the standard care group. Mean changes in eGFR were −2.55 and −0.18 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the standard care and intervention group at the end of the study, respectively. Between-group difference in eGFR was significant at 1 year (5.22 [95% CI, 4.3–6.1] ml/min/1.73 m2); (P = 0.03). The cardiac structure showed no significant changes in either group. Conclusions: Bedtime administration of antihypertensives reverted non-dippers to dippers and slowed the decline in eGFR in CKD stages 3 and 4 compared to morning administration of antihypertensives.

Abstract
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a common condition characterized by intermittent collapse of the upper airway during sleep, resulting in partial (hypopnoeas) and total obstructions (apneas). These respiratory events observed in OSA may trigger multiple pathways involved in the blood pressure (BP) instability during the night and potentially influencing daytime BP as well (carry-over effects). This review provides an update about the impact of OSA and its treatments on 24-h BP control. Overall, there is growing evidence suggest that OSA is associated with higher frequency of nondipping BP pattern and nocturnal hypertension in a dose-dependent manner. The presence of nondiping BP (especially the reverse pattern) is independently associated with OSA regardless of sleep-related symptoms suggesting a potential tool for screening OSA in patients with clinical indication for performing ABPM. Beyond dipping BP, preliminary evidence associated OSA with white-coat effect and higher frequency of masked hypertension and BP variability than the control group (no OSA). Unfortunately, most of the evidence on the evidence addressing the impact of OSA treatment on BP was limited to office measurements. In the last years, data from observational and randomized studies pointed that CPAP is able to promote 24-h BP decrease especially in patients with resistant and refractory hypertension. A randomized trial suggests that CPAP is able to decrease the rate of masked hypertension as compared to no treatment in patients with severe OSA. Interestingly, nondipping BP is a good predictor of BP response to CPAP making ABPM an interesting tool for better OSA management.

Mov Disord 2020; 35:2164-2173. [PMID: 32875658 DOI: 10.1002/mds.28224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2020] [Revised: 06/06/2020] [Accepted: 07/06/2020] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to assess the rotigotine effect on the nocturnal blood pressure (BP) dip by 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring and on endothelial function in patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS) compared with placebo. METHODS In this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, 76 adult patients with moderate to severe RLS and periodic legs movements in sleep index ≥10/hour were randomized to rotigotine at optimal dose of 3 mg per day or placebo for 6 weeks. A total of 6 patients had a major protocol deviation. Polysomnography, ambulatory BP monitoring, and endothelial function were assessed at baseline and end point. The primary outcome was the between-group difference in the percentage of BP nondipper profiles at end point. The main secondary outcomes were the mean BP dip, periodic legs movements in sleep index, and endothelial function. RESULTS Of the 70 patients (age, 59.4 ± 11.40; 43 women) randomized to rotigotine (n = 34) and placebo (n = 36), 66 (33 rotigotine, 33 placebo) completed the study. The percentage of BP nondippers at end point was higher in the placebo than in the rotigotine group (systolic BP, 72.22% vs 47.06%; diastolic BP, 47.22% vs 20.59%; P < 0.05). Mean BP dip at end point was higher in the rotigotine than in the placebo group (systolic BP, 11.24 ± 6.15 vs 6.12 ± 7.98; diastolic BP, 15.12 ± 7.09 vs 9.36 ± 10.23; P < 0.05). Endothelial function was comparable between the groups. No significant safety concerns were reported with similar incidences of adverse events between groups. CONCLUSION Rotigotine increased the percentage of BP dipper profiles and the BP dip in patients with RLS. Future studies should assess whether this change is associated with a reduction in the long-term cardiovascular risk in RLS. © 2020 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

Abstract
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been associated with non-dipping blood pressure (BP). The precise mechanism is still under investigation, but repetitive oxygen desaturation and arousal induced sleep fragmentation are considered the main contributors. Methods We analyzed beat-to-beat measurements of hemodynamic parameters (HPs) during a 25-min period of wake–sleep transition. Differences in the mean HP values for heart rate (HR), systolic BP (SBP), and stroke volume (SV) during wake and sleep and their standard deviations (SDs) were compared between 34 controls (C) and 22 OSA patients. The Student’s t-test for independent samples and the effect size by Cohen’s d (d) were calculated. HP evolution was investigated by plotting the measured HP values against each consecutive pulse wave. After a simple regression analysis, the calculated coefficient beta (SCB) was used to indicate the HP evolution. We furthermore explored by a hierarchical block regression which variables increased the prediction for the SCB: model 1 BMI and age, model 2 + apnea/hypopnea index (AHI), and model 3 + arousal index (AI). Results Between the two groups, the SBP increased in OSA and decreased in C resulting in a significant difference (p = 0.001; d = 0.92). The SV demonstrated a similar development (p = 0.047; d = 0.56). The wake/sleep variation of the HP measured by the SD was higher in the OSA group—HR: p < 0.001; d = 1.2; SBP: p = 0.001; d = 0.94; and SV: p = 0.005; d = 0.82. The hierarchical regression analysis of the SCB demonstrated in SBP that the addition of AI to AHI resulted in ΔR2: +0.163 and ΔF + 13.257 (p = 0.001) and for SV ΔR2: +0.07 and ΔF 4.83 (p = 0.003). The AI but not the AHI remained statistically significant in the regression analysis model 3—SBP: β = 0.717, p = 0.001; SV: β = 0.469, p = 0.033. Conclusion In this study, we demonstrated that in OSA, the physiological dipping in SBP and SV decreased, and the variation of all investigated parameters increased. Hierarchical regression analysis indicates that the addition of the AI to BMI, age, and AHI increases the prediction of the HP evolution following sleep onset for both SBP and SV and may be the most important variable.

Abstract
Many physiological processes, including most kidney-related functions, follow specific rhythms tied to a 24-h cycle. This is largely because circadian genes operate in virtually every cell type in the body. In addition, many noncanonical genes have intrinsic circadian rhythms, especially within the liver and kidney. This new level of complexity applies to the control of renal electrolyte excretion. Furthermore, there is growing evidence that paracrine and autocrine factors, especially the endothelin system, are regulated by clock genes. We have known for decades that excretion of electrolytes is dependent on time of day, which could play an important role in fluid volume balance and blood pressure control. Here, we review what is known about the interplay between paracrine and circadian control of electrolyte excretion. The hope is that recognition of paracrine and circadian factors can be considered more deeply in the future when integrating with well-established neuroendocrine control of excretion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis activation has not been fully understood from results of previous studies using hormonal assessments. We aimed to investigate the relationship between adrenal size, a potential marker reflecting HPA axis activity, and sleep parameters related to OSA. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data on 284 consecutive adult patients aged 20 to 80 y who had undergone polysomnography and abdominal computed tomography (CT). OSA was defined as none/mild (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] <15, n = 75), moderate (AHI 15 to 30, n = 80), and severe OSA (AHI ≥30, n = 129). Widths of adrenal body and limbs were measured by abdominal CT. RESULTS Adrenal size was greater in participants with severe OSA than in those with none/mild or moderate OSA (adrenal body width: 6.03 mm, none/mild OSA; 6.09 mm, moderate OSA; 6.78 mm, severe OSA; p <0.001; adrenal limb width: 3.75 mm, none/mild OSA; 3.95 mm, moderate OSA; 4.26 mm, severe OSA, p <0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that not the 3% oxygen desaturation index and time of SpO2 <90% but a higher arousal index was the only determinant factor for increased adrenal limb width (β = 0.27, p <0.001) after adjusting for other variables that could affect adrenal size. Neither the arousal index nor hypoxic parameters were associated with adrenal body width. CONCLUSIONS Results indicated that adrenal glands may enlarge in response to longstanding sleep fragmentation, suggesting the involvement of OSA in HPA axis augmentation.

Abstract
Hypertension is an important public health issue because of its association with a number of significant diseases and adverse outcomes. However, there are important ethnic differences in the pathogenesis and cardio-/cerebrovascular consequences of hypertension. Given the large populations and rapidly aging demographic in Asian regions, optimal strategies to diagnose and manage hypertension are of high importance. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is an important out-of-office blood pressure (BP) measurement tool that should play a central role in hypertension detection and management. The use of ABPM is particularly important in Asia due to the specific features of hypertension in Asian patients, including a high prevalence of masked hypertension, disrupted BP variability with marked morning BP surge, and nocturnal hypertension. This HOPE Asia Network document summarizes region-specific literature on the relationship between ABPM parameters and cardiovascular risk and target organ damage, providing a rationale for consensus-based recommendations on the use of ABPM in Asia. The aim of these recommendations is to guide and improve clinical practice to facilitate optimal BP monitoring with the goal of optimizing patient management and expediting the efficient allocation of treatment and health care resources. This should contribute to the HOPE Asia Network mission of improving the management of hypertension and organ protection toward achieving "zero" cardiovascular events in Asia.

Abstract
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has a heterogeneous effect on blood pressure (BP) in hypertensive patients. However, the effect of CPAP on BP in hypertensive subjects regarding circadian BP pattern has never been explored. This study aimed to assess the effect of CPAP on BP, taking into consideration the circadian BP pattern in untreated hypertensive patients.This study is a post hoc analysis of the Spanish Cohort for the Study of the Effect of CPAP in Hypertension (CEPECTA), a multicentre, randomised trial of CPAP versus sham-CPAP in patients with new-onset systemic hypertension and an apnoea-hypopnoea index >15 events·h-1 We included patients for whom 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) data were available at baseline and 12 weeks after the intervention. Subjects were classified based on the dipping ratio (dipper/non-dipper). We evaluated the effect of CPAP on ABPM parameters after 12 weeks of treatment.Overall, 272 hypertensive subjects were included in the analysis (113 dippers and 159 non-dippers). Baseline clinical and polysomnographic variables were similar between the groups. CPAP treatment in non-dipper patients was associated with reductions in 24-h ambulatory BP variables and night-time ambulatory BP measurements. However, a nonsignificant effect was reported in the dipper group. The differential effects of CPAP between the groups were -2.99 mmHg (95% CI -5.92-- -0.06 mmHg) for the mean 24-h ambulatory BP and -5.35 mmHg (95% CI -9.01- -1.69 mmHg) for the mean night-time ambulatory BP.Our results show a differential effect of CPAP treatment on BP in hypertensive patients depending on the circadian pattern. Only non-dipper patients benefited from CPAP treatment in terms of BP reduction.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in commercial motor vehicle operators (CMVOs); however, polysomnography (PSG), the gold-standard diagnostic test, is expensive and inconvenient for screening. OSA is associated with changes in heart rate and voltage on electrocardiography (EKG). We evaluated the utility of EKG parameters in identifying CMVOs at greater risk for sleepiness-related crashes (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] ≥ 30 events/h). METHODS In this prospective study of CMVOs, we performed EKGs with concurrent PSG, and calculated the respiratory power index (RPI) on EKG, a surrogate for AHI calculated from PSG. We evaluated the utility of two-stage predictive models using simple clinical measures (age, body mass index [BMI], neck circumference, Epworth Sleepiness Scale score, and the Multi-Variable Apnea Prediction [MVAP] score) in the first stage, followed by RPI in a subset as the second-stage. We assessed area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and negative posttest probability (NPTP) for this two-stage approach and for RPI alone. RESULTS The best-performing model used the MVAP, which combines BMI, age, and sex with three OSA symptoms, in the first stage, followed by RPI in the second. The model yielded an estimated (95% confidence interval) AUC of 0.883 (0.767-0.924), sensitivity of 0.917 (0.706-0.962), and NPTP of 0.034 (0.015-0.133). Predictive characteristics were similar using a model with only BMI as the first-stage screen. CONCLUSIONS A two-stage model that combines BMI or the MVAP score in the first stage, with EKG in the second, had robust discriminatory power to identify severe OSA in CMVOs.

Abstract
The additive effect of hypertension on carotid atherosclerosis in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is well-established; however, the effect of the nondipping pattern has not yet been evaluated. In this study, we aim to assess the effect of the nondipping pattern on carotid atherosclerosis, which is quantified as carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), and on the high-risk carotid profile in normotensive patients with OSA. We included 189 patients with OSA in this cross-sectional study. We followed a 2 × 2 factorial design to create groups according to the presence of OSA and nondipping pattern. All patients underwent carotid ultrasonography to quantify their CIMT and presence of plaques. Patients who had CIMT ≥ 0.9 mm and/or carotid plaques were classified as having a high-risk carotid profile. Patients in the OSA/nondipper group had a 26% higher CIMT and five times the prevalence of a high-risk carotid profile compared to patients in the non-OSA/dipper group. CIMT was correlated with age, the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), minimum oxygen saturation, and nighttime systolic blood pressure (SBP). Independent of age, diabetes, and AHI, a one mmHg increase in nighttime SBP was associated with a 0.22 mm increase in CIMT and a 4% increase in odds for the high-risk carotid profile. Similarly, independent of age and diabetes, being in the OSA/nondipper group was associated with 6.7 times increased odds for a high-risk carotid profile than being in the non-OSA/dipper group. Modeling with both the nondipping status and presence of OSA produced an 8% higher discriminative value than modeling with neither of these parameters. We found an additive effect of the nondipping pattern on carotid atherosclerosis in normotensive patients with OSA. Our findings suggested that in addition to having established hypertension, a nondipping pattern in normotensive patients with OSA may aggravate atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Short sleep duration has been widely linked to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We performed a post hoc analysis of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) in the Lifestyle Modification in Blood Pressure Lowering Study (LIMBS) and Penn Icelandic Sleep Apnea (PISA) Study. The 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure (BP) was 12.7 mm Hg higher in LIMBS (P < 0.001; n = 66) and 4.7 mm Hg higher in PISA (P = 0.005; n = 153) among participants with shorter sleep duration (less than 7 hours) compared to those with longer sleep duration (at least 7 hours). In multivariable adjusted models, shorter sleep duration was strongly associated with higher systolic BP on 24-hour ABPM, independent of nocturnal BP and in-office BP. There was no effect modification by obstructive sleep apnea. Adults with shorter sleep duration may benefit from screening with 24-hour ABPM to promote earlier detection of hypertension and potentially mitigate their increased risk for future cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
A nondipping blood pressure (BP) pattern is common in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, it is unclear how useful a nondipping BP pattern is in screening for OSA. In this cross-sectional study, we recruited consecutive patients with clinical indications for performing ambulatory BP monitoring evaluating the following dipping patterns: (1) normal: ≥10% but <20%; (2) extreme: ≥20%; (3) reduced: ≥0% but <10%; and (4) reverse (riser): <0%. Sleep questionnaires and sleep studies were performed within 7 days after ambulatory BP monitoring. OSA was defined as an apnea-hypopnea index ≥15 events/h. We evaluated 153 patients (OSA frequency, 50.3%). Patients with OSA had higher BPs during sleep, were taking more antihypertensive drugs, and more frequently used hypertensive drugs during the night than patients without OSA. Considering systolic BP, the frequency of OSA in patients with reverse dippers (73.5%) was higher than normal (37.3%), extreme (46.2%), and reduced dippers (49.1%;
P
=0.012). For diastolic BP, OSA was more common in reduced (66.7%) and reverse dippers (69.6%) as compared to normal (41.4%) or extreme dippers (33.3%;
P
=0.007). In the regression analysis, reverse systolic dipper was independently associated with OSA (odds ratio, 3.92; 95% CI, 1.31–11.78). Both reduced and reverse diastolic dippers increased the likelihood of OSA for 2.7-fold and 3.5-fold, respectively. Snoring and positive sleep questionnaire findings were associated with a modest increase in the accuracy of reverse dipping pattern for predicting OSA. In conclusion, reverse systolic, as well as reduced and reverse diastolic dippers are independently associated with OSA.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Given the emerging knowledge that circadian rhythmicity exists in every cell and all organ systems, there is increasing interest in the possible benefits of chronotherapy for many diseases. There is a well-documented 24-h pattern of blood pressure with a morning surge that may contribute to the observed morning increase in adverse cardiovascular events. Historically, antihypertensive therapy involves morning doses, usually aimed at reducing daytime blood pressure surges, but an absence of nocturnal dipping blood pressure is also associated with increased cardiovascular risk. RECENT FINDINGS To more effectively reduce nocturnal blood pressure and still counteract the morning surge in blood pressure, a number of studies have examined moving one or more antihypertensives from morning to bedtime dosing. More recently, such studies of chronotherapy have studied comorbid populations including obstructive sleep apnea, chronic kidney disease, or diabetes. Here, we summarize major findings from recent research in this area (2013-2017). In general, nighttime administration of antihypertensives improved overall 24-h blood pressure profiles regardless of disease comorbidity. However, inconsistencies between studies suggest a need for more prospective randomized controlled trials with sufficient statistical power. In addition, experimental studies to ascertain mechanisms by which chronotherapy is beneficial could aid drug design and guidelines for timed administration.

Abstract
Abstract
Hypertension remains one of the primary causes of premature cardiovascular mortality representing a major independent risk factor.
The importance of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in clinical evaluation of hypertensive patients, beyond diagnosis, is the identification of circadian dipping/non-dipping profile. The non-dipper pattern in hypertensive and normotensive patients is associated with significant target organ damage and worse outcomes, as an increased cardiovascular risk condition. Non-dipping pattern has been found to be associated with specific clinical conditions. Obesity, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, chronic kidney disease, autonomic and baroreflex dysfunctions, salt sensitivity, hormonal changes, gender and age were extensively studied. Research efforts are focused on recognizing and exploring predictive markers of abnormal blood pressure circadian pattern. Previous studies acknowledge that red cell distribution width, mean platelet volume, fibrinogen level, C-reactive protein, serum uric acid and gamma-glutamyltransferase, are independently significant and positive associated to non-dipping pattern. Moreover, research on new biomarkers are conducted: Chitinase 3-Like-Protein 1, atrial and B-type natriuretic peptide, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, chemerin, sphingomyelin and the G972R polymorphism of the insulin receptor substrate-1 gene. This review summarizes the current knowledge of different clinical conditions and biomarkers associated with the non-dipper profile in hypertensive patients.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In the twenty-first century, African descent populations on both the continent of Africa and throughout the world are experiencing a high rate of both sleep disturbances and cardiometabolic diseases. The most common sleep disturbances are reduced sleep duration, insomnia, disordered circadian rhythm, and obstructive sleep apnea. Cardiometabolic diseases include hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and the metabolic syndrome. This review seeks to call attention to new insights regarding the impact of sleep disturbance on cardiometabolic risk factors and outcomes and then apply these concepts to African descent populations, a relatively understudied population. Initial data suggest disparities in sleep quality may have an important role in current and emerging patterns of cardiometabolic disease for African descent populations both in the United States and abroad.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Normal sleep is associated with typical physiological changes in both the central and autonomic nervous systems. In particular, nocturnal blood pressure dipping has emerged as a strong marker of normal sleep physiology, whereas the absence of dipping or reverse dipping has been associated with cardiovascular risk. However, nocturnal blood pressure is not measured commonly in clinical practice. Heart rate (HR) dipping in sleep may be a similar important marker and is measured routinely in at-home and in-laboratory sleep testing. METHODS We performed a retrospective cross-sectional analysis of diagnostic polysomnography in a clinically heterogeneous cohort of n=1047 adults without sleep apnea. RESULTS We found that almost half of the cohort showed an increased HR in stable nonrapid eye movement sleep (NREM) compared to wake, while only 13.5% showed a reduced NREM HR of at least 10% relative to wake. The strongest correlates of HR dipping were younger age and male sex, whereas the periodic limb movement index (PLMI), sleep quality, and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) scores were not correlated with HR dipping. PLMI was however significantly correlated with metrics of impaired HR variability (HRV): increased low-frequency power and reduced high-frequency power. HRV metrics were unrelated to sleep quality or the ESS value. Following the work of Vgontzas et al, we also analyzed the sub-cohort with insomnia symptoms and short objective sleep duration. Interestingly, the sleep-wake stage-specific HR values depended upon insomnia symptoms more than sleep duration. CONCLUSION While our work demonstrates heterogeneity in cardiac metrics (HR and HRV), the population analysis suggests that pathological signatures of HR (nondipping and elevation) are common even in this cohort selected for the absence of sleep apnea. Future prospective work in clinical populations will further inform risk stratification and set the stage for testing interventions.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is often associated with hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases. Blood pressure (BP) variability is part of the assessment of cardiovascular risk. In OSA, BP variability has been studied mainly as very short-term (beat-by-beat) and short-term (24-hour BP profile) variability. BP measured on consecutive heartbeats has been demonstrated to be highly variable, due to repeated peaks during sleep, so that an accurate assessment of nocturnal BP levels in OSA may require peculiar methodologies. In 24-hour recordings, BP frequently features a "nondipping" profile, ie, <10% fall from day to night, which may increase cardiovascular risk and occurrence of major cardiovascular events in the nocturnal hours. Also, BP tends to show a large "morning BP surge", a still controversial negative prognostic sign. Increased very short-term BP variability, high morning BP, and nondipping BP profile appear related to the severity of OSA. Treatment of OSA slightly reduces mean 24-hour BP levels and nocturnal beat-by-beat BP variability by abolishing nocturnal BP peaks. In some patients OSA treatment turns a nondipping into a dipping BP profile. Treatment of arterial hypertension in OSA usually requires both antihypertensive pharmacological therapy and treatment of apnea. Addressing BP variability could help improve the management of OSA and reduce cardiovascular risk. Possibly, drug administration at an appropriate time would ensure a dipping-BP profile.

Abstract
Sleep-disordered breathing is a highly prevalent medical condition, which if undiagnosed leads to increased morbidity and mortality, particularly related to increased incidence of cardiovascular events. It is therefore imperative that we identify patient population at high risk for sleep apnea and refer them to the appropriate therapy as early as possible. Up-to-date there is no management guideline specifically geared towards cardiac patients. Thus, we propose a (SAP) Sleep Apnea Pathway to correctly identify and triage these patients to the appropriate therapy.

Abstract
Background Patients with cluster headache tend to have a dysregulation of systemic blood pressure such as increased blood pressure variability and decreased nocturnal dipping. This pattern of nocturnal nondipping is associated with end-organ damage and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Objective To determine if cluster headache is associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. Methods Cross-sectional study of 33 cluster headache patients without evidence of cardiovascular disease and 30 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was performed in all subjects. We evaluate anthropometric, hematologic, and structural parameters (carotid intima-media thickness and ankle-brachial index). Results Of the 33 cluster headache patients, 16 (48.5%) were nondippers, a higher percentage than expected. Most of the cluster headache patients (69.7%) also presented a pathological ankle-brachial index. In terms of the carotid intima-media thickness values, 58.3% of the patients were in the 75th percentile, 25% were in the 90th percentile, and 20% were in the 95th percentile. In the control group, only five of the 30 subjects (16.7%) had a nondipper pattern ( P = 0.004), with 4.54% in the 90th and 95th percentiles ( P = 0.012 and 0.015). Conclusions Compared with healthy controls, patients with cluster headache presented a high incidence (48.5%) of nondipper pattern, pathological ankle-brachial index (69.7%), and intima-media thickness values above the 75th percentile. These findings support the hypothesis that patients with cluster headache present increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Differences in the predictive value of daytime systolic blood pressure (SBP) and night-time SBP by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring on renal outcomes have not been fully investigated in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This study compared the prognostic value between daytime and night-time SBP on renal outcomes in CKD.Methods and Results:This prospective observational study included 421 patients. The composite renal endpoint was endstage renal disease (ESRD) or death. Cox models were used to determine associations of daytime and night-time SBP with renal outcomes. There were 150 renal events (ESRD, 130; death, 20). Multivariable Cox analyses demonstrated that hazard ratios (HRs) [95% confidence interval (CI)] for composite renal outcomes of every 10-mmHg increase in daytime and night-time SBP levels were 1.13 (1.02-1.26) (P=0.02) and 1.15 (1.05-1.27) (P<0.01), respectively. In addition, compared with the 1st daytime or night-time SBP quartile, HRs (95% CI) for outcomes in the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quartiles were: daytime SBP, 1.25 (0.70-2.25), 1.09 (0.61-1.94), and 1.58 (0.88-2.85; P=0.13) (P for trend=0.16); night-time SBP, 1.09 (0.61-1.96), 1.31 (0.76-2.28), and 1.82 (1.00-3.30; P=0.049) (P for trend=0.03), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Night-time SBP appeared superior to daytime SBP for predicting renal outcomes in this population of patients.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) dipping in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has not yet been well investigated in Chinese patients, in whom the relationship of OSA and body mass index (BMI) is weaker than that in Caucasians. The aim of this study was to evaluate the BP profile, and the relationships between nocturnal BP and the severity of OSA, in Chinese patients. METHODS Consecutive Chinese adult outpatients with suspected OSA had overnight polysomnography (PSG), office BP, and 24-h ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM). The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and nocturnal oxygen saturation level were recorded, and BP patterns were classified based on the ABPM. RESULTS Fifty-six subjects (40 male and 16 female, 48.59 ± 13.27 y) were evaluated. There were 14 patients with mild OSA (25.0%, AHI: 10.56 ± 3.42 events/h), 16 with moderate OSA (28.6%, AHI: 23.536 ± 3.42 events/h) and 26 with severe OSA (46.4%, AHI: 51.52 ± 3.42 events/h). There were 18 dippers (32.1%), 27 non-dippers (48.2%), and 11 reverse dippers (19.6%). As OSA severity increased, non-dipping also increased. A total of 67.9% of the OSA patients showed overall hypertension on ABPM, 57.1% had daytime hypertension only, and 73.2% had nighttime hypertension. CONCLUSIONS OSA severity is associated with 24-h BP profiles in a population with only mild increases in BMI. These results can influence clinical practice, OSA management, and hypertension treatment policies.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is present in up to 25% of otherwise healthy individuals. OSA is associated with intermittent hypoxia, oxidative stress, sympathetic activation, and an inflammatory response. These perturbations mediate the role of OSA as an independent and modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). OSA can induce CVD or accelerate the progression of CVD into an end-stage disorder, including heart failure and stroke. Current clinical recommendations are based on existing clinical trial data and the clinical experience of our program; current and future clinical trials will help to optimize management of OSA in the setting of CVD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine the relationship between chronic kidney disease [CKD; measured using cystatin C-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)] and abnormal ambulatory blood pressure (including nocturnal dipping) in healthy older adults. Further, this study aimed to assess the agreement between clinic and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. METHODS Serum cystatin C levels were measured to calculate eGFR. Participants underwent clinic and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure measurements. Multiple linear regression was performed to examine the association between reduced cystatin C-based eGFR (CKDcys) and blood pressure parameters. Bland-Altman analysis was carried out to evaluate the agreement between clinic and ambulatory measurements. RESULTS The average age was 72 years. There were 60 individuals with CKDcys (eGFR<60 ml/min/1.73 m). Compared with those without CKDcys, individuals with CKDcys were older, more likely to have hypertension, and less likely to have normal dipping patterns. On multivariate analysis, the presence of CKDcys was found to be significantly associated with a lower mean ambulatory diastolic blood pressure (-2 mmHg, P=0.048), but not with nocturnal dipping or other blood pressure parameters. Clinic systolic blood pressure (SBP) significantly overestimated the mean wake-time ambulatory SBP; the mean difference was 11 mmHg for those without CKDcys (95% limits of agreement -14 to 35 mmHg) and 14 mmHg for those with CKDcys (95% limits of agreement -13 to 41 mmHg); there was no statistically significant effect modification by CKD status. CONCLUSION In older, seemingly healthy adults, mild CKD was associated with lower ambulatory diastolic blood pressure. The presence of CKD did not affect interpretation of clinic versus ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, although the accuracy of clinic SBP was poor.

Abstract
Emerging evidence has assigned an important role to sleep as a modulator of metabolic homeostasis. The impact of variations in sleep duration, sleep-disordered breathing, and chronotype to cardiometabolic function encompasses a wide array of perturbations spanning from obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, the metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular disease risk and mortality in both adults and children. Here, we critically and extensively review the published literature on such important issues and provide a comprehensive overview of the most salient pathophysiologic pathways underlying the links between sleep, sleep disorders, and cardiometabolic functioning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep quality and awake physical activity are important behavioral factors involved in the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases, potentially through nocturnal blood pressure (BP) changes. However, the impacts of quantitatively measured sleep quality and awake physical activity on BP fluctuation, and their relationships with several candidate causal factors for nocturnal hypertension are not well elucidated. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 303 patients registered in the HSCAA study. Measurements included quantitatively determined sleep quality parameters and awake physical activity obtained by actigraph, nocturnal systolic BP (SBP) fall [100 × (1- sleep SBP/awake SBP ratio)], apnea hypopnea index, urinary sodium and cortisol secretion, plasma aldosterone concentration and renin activity, insulin resistance index, parameters of heart rate variability (HRV), and plasma brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). RESULTS Simple regression analysis showed that time awake after sleep onset (r = -0.150), a parameter of sleep quality, and awake physical activity (r = 0.164) were significantly correlated with nocturnal SBP fall. Among those, time awake after sleep onset (β = -0.179) and awake physical activity (β = 0.190) were significantly and independently associated with nocturnal SBP fall in multiple regression analysis. In a subgroup of patients without taking anti-hypertensive medications, both time awake after sleep onset (β = -0.336) and awake physical activity (β = 0.489) were more strongly and independently associated with nocturnal SBP falls. CONCLUSION Sleep quality and awake physical activity were found to be significantly associated with nocturnal SBP fall, and that relationship was not necessarily confounded by candidate causal factors for nocturnal hypertension.

Abstract
Hypertension and CKD frequently coexist, and both are risk factors for cardiovascular events and mortality. Among people with hypertension, the loss of the normal fall in night-time BP, called nondipping, can only be diagnosed by ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) and is a risk factor for cardiovascular events. The pathophysiology of nondipping is complex, and CKD is an independent risk factor for nondipping. In fact, nondipping can be seen in as many as 80% of people with CKD. However, the evidence for nondipping as an independent risk factor or causal agent for adverse outcomes in CKD remains mixed. ABPM has been shown to be superior to clinical BP measurement for correlating with end-organ damage and prognosis in CKD. This review covers the evidence for the use of ABPM in CKD, the evidence linking ABPM patterns to outcome in CKD and the evidence for treatment of nondipping in CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Arterial hypertension doubles the risk of coronary heart disease, heart and kidney failure, and peripheral arterial disease. Less variation in diurnal ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) patterns may affect mortality outcome. Therefore, as hypertension occurs in over 95% of older subjects, the prognostic value of dipping status in older hypertensive patients will be assessed. METHOD The retrospective study group consisted of 170 hypertensive patients, aged 75-84 years, enrolled in the years 2005 to 2007. Baseline measures included 24-h ABPM. Diurnal index and dipping status was calculated and stratified the group into dippers (40 patients, 23.5%), non-dippers (65 patients, 38.2%) and reverse-dippers (65 patients, 38.2%). RESULTS During a 5-year observation, after baseline we have observed 69 deaths (40.9%) from the whole group of 170 patients with 23 (35.4%) being non-dippers and 36 (55.4%) reverse-dippers. There were significant differences between the groups divided according to diurnal dipping status in survival time, number of recorded deaths and night mean blood pressure. We have identified and confirmed risk factors for the all-cause mortality: age, mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure, diurnal index and dipping status (dipping, non-dipping or reverse-dipping). CONCLUSION Reverse-dippers and non-dippers revealed worse prognosis compared with dippers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for sudden cardiac death. The aim of this review was to study the relationship between OSA and ventricular arrhythmias. METHODS PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane databases were searched with MESH headings to find studies linking OSA and ventricular arrhythmias including ventricular ectopy, ventricular tachycardia (VT), and ventricular fibrillation (VF). Studies were graded by a scoring system, and an attempt was made to pool data. RESULTS There were no matched cohort or case control studies to study the association between OSA and ventricular arrhythmias. Given data heterogeneity, pooling and meta-analysis of data were not possible. An attempt was made to judge the quality of evidence and present a systematic review. Patients with OSA were noted to have higher odds of ventricular ectopy, and were at a higher risk for ventricular arrhythmias. Associations included higher QTc dispersion and HR variability. We did not, however, find any clear evidence for a direct correlation between increased apnea hypopnea index and increased VT or VF. CONCLUSIONS Pooling and meta-analysis of studies linking OSA and ventricular arrhythmias were not possible due to heterogeneity of data. In a systemic review of studies, patients with OSA were noted to have higher odds of ventricular ectopy and arrhythmias. A single study showed that CPAP may help lower arrhythmogenicity; however, it was unclear if CPAP lowered the risk of VT. Further research should focus on studying the association of OSA and causes of sudden cardiac death, including ventricular arrhythmias.
