Abstract
Differences in the epidemiology and phenotypes of hypertension in Japan compared with Western countries mean that optimal approaches to the pharmacological management of hypertension should be based on local data. Fortunately, there is a large body of evidence from studies conducted in Japanese populations to inform guidelines and treatment decisions. This article highlights treatment recommendations and BP targets for Japanese patients with hypertension, and summarizes key literature supporting these recommendations. The latest version of the Japanese Society of Hypertension (JSH) guidelines is consistent with US and European guidelines in recommending that the general BP target should be <130/80 mmHg for office blood pressure (BP) and <125/75 mmHg for home BP. There is good local evidence to support these targets. The JSH guidelines also strongly recommend that antihypertensive therapy is managed and monitored based on home BP, due to the closer association of this parameter with cardiovascular risk compared with office BP. Japan is a leader in out-of-office BP research, meaning that there is good evidence for the Japanese recommendations. Key features of antihypertensive agents for use in Japanese patients with hypertension include the ability to reduce stroke risk provide antihypertensive efficacy throughout the 24-h dosing period. Calcium channel blockers appear to be particularly effective in Asian populations, and are the most commonly prescribed agents in Japan. Again consistent with international recommendations, antihypertensive therapy should be started with a combination of agents to maximize the chances of achieving target BP.

Abstract
Morning hypertension is an important clinical target in the management of hypertension for perfect 24-h blood pressure (BP) control. Morning hypertension is generally categorized into two types: "morning surge" type and "sustained nocturnal and morning hypertension" type. The "morning surge" type is characterized by an exaggerated morning blood pressure surge (MBPS), and the "sustained nocturnal and morning hypertension" type with continuous hypertension from nighttime to morning (non-dipper/riser type). They can be detected by home and ambulatory blood pressure measurements (HBPM and ABPM). These two forms of morning hypertension both increase the risk of cardiovascular and renal diseases, but may occur via different pathogenic mechanisms and are associated with different conditions. Morning hypertension should be treated to achieve a morning BP level of < 135/85 mmHg, regardless of the office BP. The second target morning BP levels is < 125/75 mmHg for high-risk patients with morning hypertension and concomitant diseases. Morning hypertension is more frequently found in Asians, than in Westerners. Thus, the management of morning hypertension is especially important in Asia. The detection of morning hypertension and the individual home BP-guided treatment approach targeting morning BP in combination with ABPM, and the optimal treatment of morning hypertension would reduce cardiovascular events in Asia.

Sousa JP, Mendonça D, Teixeira R, Gonçalves L. Do adrenergic alpha-antagonists increase the risk of poor cardiovascular outcomes? A systematic review and meta-analysis. ESC Heart Fail 2022; 9:2823-2839. [PMID: 35894772 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Revised: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Due to concerns regarding neurohormonal activation and fluid retention, adrenergic alpha-1 receptor antagonists (A1Bs) are generally avoided in the setting of heart disease, namely, symptomatic heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, this contraindication is mainly supported by ancient studies, having recently been challenged by newer ones. We aim to perform a comprehensive meta-analysis aimed at ascertaining the extent to which A1Bs might influence cardiovascular (CV) outcomes. We systematically searched PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Web of Science for both prospective and retrospective studies, published until 1 December 2020, addressing the impact of A1Bs on both clinical outcomes-namely, acute heart failure (AHF), acute coronary syndrome (ACS), CV and all-cause mortality-and on CV surrogate measures, specifically left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and exercise tolerance, by means of exercise duration. Both randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and studies including only HF patients were further investigated separately. Study-specific odds ratios (ORs) and mean differences (MDs) were pooled using traditional meta-analytic techniques, under a random-effects model. A record was registered in PROSPERO database, with the code number CRD42020181804. Fifteen RCTs, three non-randomized prospective and two retrospective studies, encompassing 32 851, 19 287, and 71 600 patients, respectively, were deemed eligible; 62 256 patients were allocated to A1B, on the basis of multiple clinical indications: chronic HF itself [14 studies, with 72 558 patients, including seven studies with 850 HFrEF or HF with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) patients], arterial hypertension (four studies, with 44 184 patients) and low urinary tract symptoms (two studies, with 6996 patients). There were 25 998 AHF events, 1325 ACS episodes, 955 CV deaths and 33 567 all-cause deaths. When considering only RCTs, A1Bs were, indeed, found to increase AHF risk (OR 1.78, [1.46, 2.16] 95% CI, P < 0.00001, i2 2%), although displaying no significant effect on neither ACS nor CV or all-cause mortality rates (OR 1.02, [0.91, 1.15] 95% CI, i2 0%; OR 0.95, [0.47, 1.91] 95% CI, i2 17%; OR 1.1, [0.84, 1.43] 95% CI, i2 17%, respectively). Besides, when only HF patients were evaluated, A1Bs revealed themselves neutral towards not only ACS, CV, and all-cause mortality events (OR 0.49, [0.1, 2.47] 95% CI, i2 0%; OR 0.7, [0.21, 2.31] 95% CI, i2 21%; OR 1.09, [0.53, 2.23] 95% CI, i2 17%, respectively), but also AHF (OR 1.13, [0.66, 1.92] 95% CI, i2 0%). As for HFrEF and HFmrEF, A1Bs were found to exert a similarly inconsequential effect on AHF rates (OR 1.01, [0.5-2.05] 95% CI, i2 6%). Likewise, LVEF was not significantly influenced by A1Bs (MD 1.66, [-2.18, 5.50] 95% CI, i2 58%). Most strikingly, exercise tolerance was higher in those under this drug class (MD 139.16, [65.52, 212.8] 95% CI, P < 0.001, i2 26%). A1Bs do not seem to exert a negative influence on the prognosis of HF-and even of HFrEF-patients, thus contradicting currently held views. These drugs' impact on other major CV outcomes also appear trivial and they may even increment exercise tolerance.

ACTA CARDIOLOGICA SINICA 2020; 36:537-561. [PMID: 33235411 PMCID: PMC7677637 DOI: 10.6515/acs.202011_36(6).20201106a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2020] [Accepted: 11/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
To facilitate the applications of home blood pressure (HBP) monitoring in clinical settings, the Taiwan Hypertension Society and the Taiwan Society of Cardiology jointly put forward the Consensus Statement on HBP monitoring according to up-to-date scientific evidence by convening a series of expert meetings and compiling opinions from the members of these two societies. In this Consensus Statement as well as recent international guidelines for management of arterial hypertension, HBP monitoring has been implemented in diagnostic confirmation of hypertension, identification of hypertension phenotypes, guidance of anti-hypertensive treatment, and detection of hypotensive events. HBP should be obtained by repetitive measurements based on the " 722 " principle, which is referred to duplicate blood pressure readings taken per occasion, twice daily, over seven consecutive days. The " 722" principle of HBP monitoring should be applied in clinical settings, including confirmation of hypertension diagnosis, 2 weeks after adjustment of antihypertensive medications, and at least every 3 months in well-controlled hypertensive patients. A good reproducibility of HBP monitoring could be achieved by individuals carefully following the instructions before and during HBP measurement, by using validated BP devices with an upper arm cuff. Corresponding to office BP thresholds of 140/90 and 130/80 mmHg, the thresholds (or targets) of HBP are 135/85 and 130/80 mmHg, respectively. HBP-based hypertension management strategies including bedtime dosing (for uncontrolled morning hypertension), shifting to drugs with longer-acting antihypertensive effect (for uncontrolled evening hypertension), and adding another antihypertensive drug (for uncontrolled morning and evening hypertension) should be considered. Only with the support from medical caregivers, paramedical team, or tele- monitoring, HBP monitoring could reliably improve the control of hypertension.

Abstract
Background: Anticoagulant activity and blood pressure increase in the morning. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes of anticoagulant activity, blood pressure and target organ damage in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) given combination treatment with Xa inhibitor and antihypertensive agent.Methods: We enrolled 72 patients with nonvalvular AF. Rivaroxaban (10-15 mg) was continuously administered once daily over 8 weeks (study period I). For subjects (n = 50) who exhibited uncontrolled morning hypertension (home systolic blood pressure [SBP]≥125 mmHg) at the end of study period I (at 8 weeks), nifedipine CR (20-40 mg) was added at bedtime, and rivaroxaban administration was continued an additional 8 weeks. We assessed prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 (optimal range: 69-229 pmol/L) and D-dimer (negative D-dimer measurement: <1.0 μg/mL).Results: The percentage of patients with optimal-range prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 was significantly increased at 4 weeks compared to baseline (70.8% vs. 86.1%, p = .033). In period II, office and home morning SBP were reduced at 12 compared to 8 weeks (office SBP: 135.2 ± 15.7 vs. 125.6 ± 18.4mmHg, p < .001; home morning SBP: 133.5 ± 10.5 vs. 119.9 ± 12.1mmHg, p<.001).The percentage of patients with negative D-dimer was increased at 8 weeks compared to baseline (92% vs. 100%, p = .044), and remained at 100% at 16 weeks.Conclusions: Xa inhibitor therapy improved anticoagulant activity, and additional antihypertensive therapy maintained the anticoagulant activity in patients with nonvalvular AF.

Mathematical Model Based on the Shape of Pulse Waves Measured at a Single Spot for the Non-Invasive Prediction of Blood Pressure. Processes (Basel) 2020.

Abstract
Background: Continuous non-invasive blood pressure (BP) measurement is a desired virtue in clinical practice. Unfortunately, current systems do not allow one for continuous, reliable BP measurement for more than a few hours per day, and they often require a complicated set of sensors to provide the necessary biosignals. Therefore we investigated the possibility of proposing a computational model that would predict the BP from pulse waves recorded in a single spot. Methods: Two experimental circuits were created. One containing a simple plastic tube for model development and a second with a silicone molded patient-specific arterial tree model. The first model served for the measuring of pulse waves under various BP (70–270 mmHg) and heart rate (60–190 beats per minute) values. Four different computational models were used to estimate the BP values from the diastolic time. The most accurate model was further validated using data from the latter experimental circuit containing a molded patient-specific silicone arterial tree. The measured data were averaged over a window of one, three, and five cycles. Two models based on pulse arrival time (PAT) were also analyzed for comparison. Results: The most accurate model exhibits a correlation coefficient of r = 0.967. The Bland–Altman plot revealed standard deviations (SD) between the model predictions and measurement of 10, 8.3, and 7.5 mmHg for the systolic BP and 8.7, 7 and 6.3 mmHg for the diastolic BP (both pressures calculated for the averaging windows of one, three, and five cycles, respectively). The best of the used PAT based model exhibited a SD of 17, 16, and 15 mmHg for the systolic BP and 14, 13, and 12 mmHg for the diastolic BP for the same averaging windows. Discussion: The proposed model showed its capability to predict BP accurately from the shape of the pulse wave measured at a single spot. Its SD was about 50% lower compared to the PAT based models which met the requirements of the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation.

Abstract
Unlike other international guidelines but in accord with the earlier Japanese Society of Hypertension (JSH) guidelines, the 2019 JSH guidelines ("JSH 2019") continue to emphasize the importance of out-of-office blood pressure (BP) measurements obtained with a home BP device. Another unique characteristic of JSH 2019 is that it sets clinical questions about the management of hypertension that are based on systematic reviews of updated evidence. JSH 2019 states that individuals with office BP < 140/90 mm Hg do not have normal BP. The final decisions regarding the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension should be performed based on out-of-office BP values together with office BP measurements. For hypertensive adults with comorbidities, the office BP goal is usually <130/80 mm Hg and the home BP goal is <125/75 mm Hg. Recommendations of JSH 2019 would be valuable for not only Japanese hypertensive patients but also Asian hypertensive patients, who share the same features including higher incidence of stroke compared with that of myocardial infarction and a steeper blood pressure-vascular event relationship.

Augmented blood pressure variability following continuous infusion of noradrenaline in rats. J Hypertens 2019; 38:314-321. [PMID: 31503135 DOI: 10.1097/hjh.0000000000002239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Augmented blood pressure (BP) variability has been shown to be associated with cardiovascular diseases. Activity of the sympathetic nervous system is an important determinant factor of the 24-h profile of BP variability, although it is unknown whether persistent adrenergic activation causes augmented BP variability or not. Here we report that continuous infusion of noradrenalin augments 24-h BP variability in rats. METHODS Nine-week-old male Wistar rats were continuously infused with subcutaneous 30 μg/h noradrenalin, 150 μg/h of the α1-adrenergic agonist phenylephrine, or 30 μg/h of the β-agonist isoproterenol, for 14 days. Noradrenalin-infused rats were also administered either oral 5 mg/day prazosin or 50 mg/day atenolol during the infusion period. BP variability was evaluated before and after 7 and 14 days of the infusion, using a coefficient of variation of BP recorded every 15 min under an unrestrained condition via an abdominal aortic catheter by a radiotelemetry system. RESULTS Continuous infusion of noradrenalin significantly increased 24-h BP variability at 7 and 14 days, slightly elevating BP levels, while this increase in BP variability was partially attenuated by prazosin, but not by atenolol. Continuous infusion of phenylephrine augmented BP variability, but isoproterenol had no effect on the variability. CONCLUSION Continuous infusion of noradrenalin augmented 24-h BP variability partly through an α1-adrenergic receptor-mediated mechanism in rats, suggesting that the noradrenalin-infused rat is an animal model of augmented BP variability induced by persistent adrenergic activation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Blood pressure variability (BPV) is a powerful predictor of end-organ damage, cardiovascular events and mortality independently of the BP level. Calcium channel blockers may offer an advantage over other first-line antihypertensive drugs by preventing increased BPV. But the effect of alpha-receptor blockers on BPV in hypertensive patients is still unclear. METHODS In this crossover trial, 36 hypertensive patients were randomly assigned to two groups, receiving doxazosin mesylate gastrointestinal therapeutic system (GITS) (4 mg/day) or nifedipine GITS (30 mg/day) for 12 weeks, followed by a 2-week washout period then a 12-week crossover phase. At baseline and after 12-week treatment, 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring was performed. BPV was evaluated through standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV), and average real variability (ARV) of systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) during daytime, nighttime and over 24 hours. RESULTS After 12-week treatment, both doxazosin and nifedipine significantly decreased SBP and DBP (P < 0.05), whereas no between-group differences were shown (P>0.05). Systolic BPV (24-hour SD, CV, and ARV; daytime SD; nighttime SD and CV) and diastolic BPV (24-hour SD and ARV) were significantly lowered by nifedipine (P < 0.05); doxazosin resulted in significant reductions of systolic BPV (24-hour SD, CV and ARV; daytime SD; nighttime SD) and diastolic BPV (nighttime SD and CV) (P < 0.05). Doxazosin was revealed to be as effective as nifedipine for reducing BPV (P > 0.05) except for 24-hour SBP ARV. CONCLUSIONS Doxazosin mesylate GITS had similar therapeutic effects on BP, BP SD, and BP CV lowering as nifedipine GITS in patients with mild-to-moderate essential hypertension.

Abstract
Orthostatic hypertension (OHT), that is, sustained increase in blood pressure after standing, is an increasingly recognized cardiovascular disorder having been examined in much fewer studies compared with orthostatic hypotension (OH). However, in both OHT and OH, dysfunction of the autonomous nervous system is considered to be the primary pathophysiological disturbance, while significant associations with essential hypertension have been observed. Although in many studies OHT has been related to subclinical or clinical target organ damage, there is also evidence denying such an association. Because OHT is defined variably across different studies, the comparison of relevant outcomes is at least problematic. Since evidence about OHT treatment is exclusively based on limited non-randomized studies, no specific recommendations have been developed. Therefore, both the prognostic role and the clinical significance of OHT remain largely undefined. The aim of the present review is to summarize the available evidence regarding the definition, diagnosis, pathophysiology, prognostic role and treatment of OHT and highlight potential clinical implications of this underestimated condition.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review considers the relationship between abnormal blood pressure (BP) variability and autonomic dysfunction through an attempt to answer questions about its clinical relevance and pertinence to diabetes and cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) and which therapeutic measures can lessen its cardiovascular impact. RECENT FINDINGS Office, ambulatory, and home BP monitoring identify posture-related, circadian, short-term, and long-term BP variabilities. Abnormal BP variability is a risk marker for organ damage, mortality, and cardiovascular events. Moreover, BP variability changes are common in diabetes and associated with CAN and possibly exacerbated by comorbidities like nephropathy, obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome, and chronic pain. The prognostic role of nondipping and reverse dipping is well documented in diabetes. Some findings suggest the possibility of restoring dipping with the dosage time of antihypertensive agents. Diabetes is a favorable scenario for altered BP variability, which might mediate the harmful effects of CAN. Preliminary data suggest the protective effect of targeting BP variability. However, further longitudinal outcome studies are needed. In the meantime, BP variability measures and practical expedients in antihypertensive treatment should be implemented in diabetes.

Abstract
Morning hours are the period of the day characterized by the highest incidence of major cardiovascular events including myocardial infarction, sudden death or stroke. They are also characterized by important neurohormonal changes, in particular, the activation of sympathetic nervous system which usually leads to a rapid increase in blood pressure (BP), known as morning blood pressure surge (MBPS). It was hypothesized that excessive MBPS may be causally involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular events occurring in the morning by inducing hemodynamic stress. A number of studies support an independent relationship of MBPS with organ damage, cerebrovascular complications and mortality, although some heterogeneity exists in the available evidence. This may be due to ethnic differences, methodological issues and the confounding relationship of MBPS with other features of 24-hour BP profile, such as nocturnal dipping or BP variability. Several studies are also available dealing with treatment effects on MBPS and indicating the importance of long-acting antihypertensive drugs in this regard. This paper provides an overview of pathophysiologic, methodological, prognostic and therapeutic aspects related to MBPS.

Abstract
Hypertension is the leading cause of mortality throughout Asia. Home blood pressure monitoring has the potential to improve hypertension control and is a useful adjunct to conventional office blood pressure measurements due to its diagnostic accuracy and prognostic value in predicting cardiovascular outcomes. At present, there are no region-specific guidelines addressing the use of home blood pressure monitoring in Asia. Therefore, an expert panel was convened to address the use of home blood pressure monitoring and develop key recommendations to help guide clinical practice throughout the Asia region. The resulting recommendations support the use of home blood pressure monitoring with a validated device as an accurate adjunct for diagnosing hypertension and predicting cardiovascular outcome. Diagnosis and treatment of hypertension should still be guided by conventional office/clinic blood pressure measurements. The expert panel encourages the incorporation of home blood pressure monitoring into local clinical guidelines and offers practical recommendations to ensure continuity of care where a validated home blood pressure device is not available.

Abstract
Hypertension is an important modifiable cardiovascular risk factor and a leading cause of death throughout Asia. Effective prevention and control of hypertension in the region remain a significant challenge despite the availability of several regional and international guidelines. Out-of-office measurement of blood pressure (BP), including home BP monitoring (HBPM), is an important hypertension management tool. Home BP is better than office BP for predicting cardiovascular risk and HBPM should be considered for all patients with office BP ≥ 130/85 mm Hg. It is important that HBPM is undertaken using a validated device and patients are educated about how to perform HBPM correctly. During antihypertensive therapy, monitoring of home BP control and variability is essential, especially in the morning. This is because HBPM can facilitate the choice of individualized optimal therapy. The evidence and practice points in this document are based on the Hypertension Cardiovascular Outcome Prevention and Evidence (HOPE) Asia Network expert panel consensus recommendations for HBPM in Asia.

Abstract
: The aim of the current article is to review the current evidence on the role of morning blood pressure (BP) in the management of hypertension. Morning BP surge had been and will continue to be a hot topic of hypertension research. However, more evidence is needed to prove its clinical usefulness in the management of hypertension. Masked morning hypertension, as the other forms of masked hypertension, requires more research. The concept of morning BP monitoring could be clinically relevant in the therapeutic management of hypertension and in the prevention of cardiovascular complications by defining and treating morning hypertension. Antihypertensive medication is usually taken in the morning. The presence of uncontrolled morning BP during trough effect hours could be a hallmark of inadequate antihypertensive regimen, such as, for instance, the use of short-acting or intermediate-acting drugs, under dosing of drugs, or no or low use of combination therapy. To improve the management of hypertension in general and morning hypertension in particular, long-acting antihypertensive drugs should be used in appropriate often full dosages and in proper combinations. The clinical usefulness of antihypertensive drugs of specific mechanisms against morning BP or split or timed dosing of long-acting drugs in controlling morning BP remains under investigation. In conclusion, there is some evidence that morning BP is critical in the incidence of cardiovascular complications. However, proving its clinical usefulness in the management of hypertension requires further research.

Abstract
Home blood pressure (BP) monitoring is endorsed in multiple guidelines as a valuable adjunct to office BP measurements for the diagnosis and management of hypertension. In many countries throughout Asia, physicians are yet to appreciate the significant contribution of BP variability to cardiovascular events. Furthermore, data from Japanese cohort studies have shown that there is a strong association between morning BP surge and cardiovascular events, suggesting that Asians in general may benefit from more effective control of morning BP. We designed the Asia BP@Home study to investigate the distribution of hypertension subtypes, including white-coat hypertension, masked morning hypertension, and well-controlled and uncontrolled hypertension. The study will also investigate the determinants of home BP control status evaluated by the same validated home BP monitoring device and the same standardized method of home BP measurement among 1600 or more medicated patients with hypertension from 12 countries/regions across Asia.

Abstract
Morning hypertension is an independent risk for cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events. Although the prevalence of morning hypertension increases with age, treatment of morning hypertension has not been established, particularly in Very-Elderly patients. We compared the safety and efficacy of a losartan/hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) combination in controlling morning hypertension between Very-Elderly (≥75 years) and Young/Elderly patients (<75 years). This study was a subanalysis of the Morning Hypertension and Angiotensin Receptor Blocker/Hydrochlorothiazide Combination Therapy study, in which patients with morning hypertension (≥135/85 mmHg) received a 50-mg losartan/12.5-mg HCTZ combination tablet (combination therapy) or 100-mg losartan (high-dose therapy) for 3 months. High adherence rates and few adverse effects were observed in Very-Elderly patients receiving combination (n = 32) and high-dose (n = 34) therapies and in Young/Elderly patients receiving combination (n = 69) and high-dose (n = 66) therapies. Baseline morning systolic BP (SBP) was similar in both age groups receiving either therapy. Morning SBP was reduced by 20.2 and 18.1 mmHg with combination therapy and by 7.1 and 9.1 mmHg with high-dose therapy in the Very-Elderly and Young/Elderly patients, respectively. Morning BP target (<135/85 mmHg) was achieved in 40.6% and 55.1% by combination therapy and in 14.7% and 24.2% by high-dose therapy in the Very-Elderly and Young/Elderly patients, respectively. Neither therapy changed renal function and serum potassium in Very-Elderly patients. In conclusion, the losartan/HCTZ combination was safe and effective in controlling morning hypertension in Very-Elderly as well as Young/Elderly patients. In addition, combination therapy was also superior to high-dose therapy for lowering morning SBP in Very-Elderly patients.

Abstract
Out-of-office blood pressure (BP) measured by home BP monitoring, or ambulatory BP monitoring, was demonstrated to be superior to office BP for the prediction of cardiovascular events. The J-HOP study of a nationwide Japanese cohort demonstrated that morning home BP is the best stroke predictor. In the prospective HONEST study of >21 000 hypertensives, on-treatment morning home BP was shown to be a strong predictor both of future coronary artery disease and stroke events. In subjects whose office BP was maintained at ⩾150 mm Hg, there was no increase in cardiovascular events when their morning systolic BP was well-controlled at <125 mm Hg. Since Asians show greater morning BP surges, it is particularly important for Asians to achieve 'perfect 24-hr BP control,' that is, the 24-h BP level, nocturnal BP dipping and BP variability including morning surge. The morning BP surge and the extremes of disrupted circadian rhythm (riser and extreme dipper patterns) are independent risks for stroke in hypertensives. A morning BP-guided approach is thus the first step toward perfect 24-h BP control, followed by the control of nocturnal hypertension. In the resonance hypothesis, the synergistic resonance of BP variability phenotypes would produce an extraordinary large 'dynamic BP surge' that can trigger a cardiovascular event, especially in high-risk patients with systemic hemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome, a vicious cycle of exaggerated BP variability and vascular disease. In the future, information and communications technology and artificial intelligence technology with the innovation of wearable continuous surge BP monitoring will contribute to 'anticipation medicine' with the goal of zero cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Blood pressure (BP) exhibits different variabilities and surges with different time phases, from the shortest beat-by-beat to longest yearly changes. We hypothesized that the synergistic resonance of these BP variabilites generates an extraordinarily large dynamic surge in BP and triggers cardiovascular events (the resonance hypothesis). The power of pulses is transmitted to the peripheral sites without attenuation by the large arteries, in individuals with stiffened arteries. Thus, the effect of a BP surge on cardiovascular risk would be especially exaggerated in high-risk patients with vascular disease. Based on this concept, our group recently proposed a new theory of systemic hemodynamic atherothromboltic syndrome (SHATS), a vicious cycle of hemodynamic stress and vascular disease that advances organ damage and triggers cardiovascular disease. Clinical phenotypes of SHATS are large-artery atherothombotic diseases such as stroke, coronary artery disease, and aortic and pheripheral artery disease; small-artery diseases, and microcirculation-related disease such as vascular cognitive dysfunction, heart failure, and chronic kidney disease. The careful consideration of BP variability and vascular diseases such as SHATS, and the early detection and management of SHATS, will achieve more effective individualized cardiovascular protection. In the near future, information and communication technology-based 'anticipation medicine' predicted by the changes of individual BP values could be a promising approach to achieving zero cardiovascular events.

Abstract
There are notable differences between Asians and Westerners regarding hypertension (HTN) and the relationship between HTN and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Asians show greater morning surges in blood pressure (BP) and a steeper slope illustrating the link between higher BP and the risk of CVD events. It is thus particularly important for Asian hypertensives to achieve 24-h BP control, including morning and night-time control. There are three components of 'perfect 24-h BP control:' the 24-h BP level, nocturnal BP dipping, and BP variability (BPV), such as the morning BP surge that can be assessed by ambulatory BP monitoring. The morning BP-guided approach using home BP monitoring (HBPM) is the first step toward perfect 24-h BP control, followed by the control of nocturnal HTN. We have been developing new HBPM devices that can measure nocturnal BP. BPV includes different time-phase variability from the shortest beat-by-beat, positional, diurnal, day-by-day, visit-to-visit, seasonal, and yearly changes. The synergistic resonance of each type of BPV would produce a great dynamic BP surge (resonance hypothesis), which triggers a CVD event, especially in the high-risk patients with systemic hemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome (SHATS). In the future, the innovative management of HTN based on the simultaneous assessment of the resonance of all of the BPV phenotypes using a beat by beat wearable 'surge' BP monitoring device (WSP) and an information and communication technology (ICT)-based data analysis system will produce a paradigm shift from 'dots' BP management to 'seamless' ultimate individualized 'anticipation medication' for reaching a zero CVD event rate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several guidelines recommend that home blood pressure (HBP) be measured both in the morning and in the evening. However, there have been fewer reports about the clinical significance of morning HBP than about the clinical significance of evening HBP. METHODS Our study included 4,310 patients recruited for the Japan Morning Surge Home Blood Pressure Study who had one or more cardiovascular risk factors. We measured morning and evening HBP, urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), maximum carotid intima media thickness (IMT), N-terminal pro-brain-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (Hs-cTnT). RESULTS The correlation coefficients for the associations between morning systolic BP (SBP) and log-transformed baPWV, NT-proBNP, or Hs-cTnT were significantly greater than the corresponding relationships for evening SBP (all P < 0.01). The goodness-of-fit of the associations between morning home SBP and UACR (P < 0.05) or baPWV (P < 0.01) was improved by adding evening home SBP to the SBP measurement. In contrast, the goodness-of-fit values of the associations between evening SBP and UACR (P < 0.001), LVMI (P < 0.05), baPWV (P < 0.001), NT-proBNP (P < 0.001), and Hs-cTnT (P < 0.001) were improved by adding morning home SBP to the SBP measurement. CONCLUSIONS Morning BP and evening BP provide equally useful information for subclinical target organ damage, yet multivariate modeling highlighted the stand-alone predictive ability of morning BP.

Abstract
AIMS The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between morning blood pressure surge (MBPS), hemodynamic parameters, glycemic control and 24-h urinary sodium excretion (USE) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MATERIALS AND METHODS MBPS and central hemodynamic parameters were assessed from ambulatory blood pressure measurements. In addition to routine biochemistry, 24h urine collection was performed to measure protein, albumin and sodium excretion. RESULTS There were 146 (38%) patients with T2DM and 238 (72%) patients without T2DM (control group). Patients with T2DM had statistically higher MBPS compared with patients without T2DM (P<0.0001). In patients with T2DM, MBPS was correlated with HbA1c (rho=0.311, P<0.0001), 24h urinary sodium excretion (USE) (rho=0.292, P=0.004) and various hemodynamic parameters. Additionally, regression analysis showed that being male (P=0.006), the presence of coronary artery disease (P=0.023), HbA1c (P=0.012), and 24h USE (P=0.001) were independently related with log MBPS in T2DM patients. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that T2DM was an independent risk factor for increased MBPS and MBPS was associated with central hemodynamic parameters. Additionally poor glycemic control and sodium intake were associated with worse MBPS in T2DM.

Abstract
Stroke is the second most common cause of death worldwide and of adult disability, but in the near future the global burden of cerebrovascular diseases will rise due to ageing and adverse lifestyle changes in populations worldwide. The risk of stroke increases at blood pressure levels above 115/75 mm Hg and high blood pressure (BP) is the most important modifiable risk factor for stroke, associated with 54 % episodes of stroke worldwide. There is strong evidence from clinical trials that antihypertensive therapy reduces substantially the risk of any type of stroke, as well as stroke-related death and disability. The risk attributed to BP is associated not only with absolute values but also with certain parameters describing BP diurnal pattern as well as short-term and long-term variability. Many studies reported that certain features of BP like nocturnal hypertension, morning surge or increased variability predict an increased stroke risk. However, there is no accepted effective modality for correction of these disturbances (chronotherapy, certain classes of antihypertensive drugs). In the elderly, who are mostly affected by stroke, the primary prevention guidelines recommend treatment with diuretics and calcium channel blockers to lower blood pressure to the standard level.

Abstract
Orthostatic hypertension-a condition characterized by a hyperactive pressor response to orthostatic stress-is an emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is associated with hypertensive target-organ damage (resulting in silent cerebrovascular disease, left ventricular hypertrophy, carotid atherosclerosis and/or chronic kidney disease) and cardiovascular events (such as coronary artery disease and lacunar stroke). The condition is also considered to be a form of prehypertension as it precedes hypertension in young, normotensive adults. Orthostatic blood pressure changes can be assessed using orthostatic stress tests, including clinic active standing tests, home blood pressure monitoring and the head-up tilting test. Devices for home and for ambulatory blood pressure monitoring that are equipped with position sensors and do not induce a white-coat effect have increased the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis of out-of-clinic orthostatic hypertension. Potential major mechanisms of orthostatic hypertension are sympathetic hyperactivity (as a result of hypersensitivity of the cardiopulmonary and arterial baroreceptor reflex) and α-adrenergic hyperactivation. Orthostatic hypertension is also associated with morning blood pressure surge and extreme nocturnal blood pressure dipping, both of which increase the pulsatile haemodynamic stress of central arterial pressure and blood flow in patients with systemic haemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome.

Abstract
The relationships between home blood pressure (BP), masked hypertension defined by home BP, and integrated flow-mediated vasodilation (FMD) response remain unclear. The authors enrolled 257 patients (mean age, 63.5 years; 51% men) who had at least one cardiovascular risk factor. FMD of the brachial artery was measured with a semiautomatic edge-detection algorithm. The integrated FMD response was calculated as the area under the dilation curve during 120 seconds after deflation (FMD-AUC120) and the FMD magnitude as the percentage change in peak diameter (ΔFMD). Masked hypertension was defined by office BP <140/90 mm Hg and home BP ≥135 mm Hg and/or 85 mm Hg. Home systolic BP was inversely correlated with FMD-AUC120 and ΔFMD (FMD-AUC120: r=-.23, P<.001; ΔFMD: r=-.13, P=.041), and office systolic BP was inversely associated with FMD-AUC120 (r=-.16, P=.011), but not with ΔFMD. After adjusting for covariates, home systolic BP (β=-.27, P=.003), but not office BP, was inversely associated with FMD-AUC120, whereas ΔFMD was not associated with office or home systolic BP. FMD-AUC120 was significantly lower in patients with masked hypertension compared with those with normotension (7.7±6.7 vs 11.5±8.8 mm × s, P=.048). Home systolic BP and masked hypertension defined by home BP were associated with a decrease in FMD-AUC120.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Morning hypertension is a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Furthermore, it is a useful measure for definitive diagnosis of hypertension, and patients who self-assess their own blood pressure (BP) in the morning tend to exhibit better compliance with antihypertensive medication than those who do not. OBJECTIVE The objective of this analysis was to determine the BP- and pulse rate-lowering effects of azelnidipine, a long-acting dihydropyridine calcium antagonist administered once daily in the morning. METHODS We conducted the Azelnidipine Treatment for Hypertension Open-label Monitoring in the Early morning (At-HOME) Study by surveying patients who were taking azelnidipine. According to the study protocol, high systolic BP (SBP) was defined as ≥135 mmHg when measured at home in the morning and ≥140 mmHg when measured at the clinic during the day. A total of 5,433 hypertensive patients, who were registered at 1,011 medical institutions across Japan, were enrolled in the study. Data obtained from 4,852 of these patients (mean age, 64.8 years; female, 52.9 %; previous medication with other antihypertensive agents used concomitantly with the present study agent, 45.5 %) were used for efficacy analysis. RESULTS At baseline, the subjects' mean [± standard deviation] SBP/diastolic BP values at home in the morning, at the clinic during the day, and at home in the evening were 156.9 ± 16.4/89.7 ± 12.0, 157.5 ± 18.7/89.1 ± 13.3, and 150.2 ± 17.6/85.6 ± 12.2 mmHg, respectively. The mean pulse rates were 72.7 ± 10.7, 74.9 ± 11.2, and 72.5 ± 9.6 beats/min, respectively. Patients whose BP was defined as high accounted for 83.4 % of the study population, whereas 9.9 % had 'masked' hypertension, defined as SBP of ≥135 mmHg at home in the morning and <140 mmHg at the clinic. However, from 4 weeks after initiation of azelnidipine treatment till the end of the study at week 16, all three daily BP determinations were significantly (p < 0.0001) lowered, and pulse rates at home in the morning, at the clinic, and at home in the evening were similarly and significantly reduced (by -3.7 ± 8.0, -3.5 ± 9.5, and -3.5 ± 7.3 beats/min, respectively). Whereas achievement of home SBP of <135 mmHg in the morning was noted in only 6.6 % of patients before the start of azelnidipine treatment, this was noted in 43.3 % after 16 weeks. Meanwhile, achievement of clinic SBP of <140 mmHg was increased from 12.9 % of patients to 56.1 % of patients at the same timepoints. After azelnidipine treatment, 32.2 % of patients had well-controlled hypertension in both the home and clinic settings. Adverse drug reactions occurred in 2.92 % of patients (154/5,265). All adverse drug reactions were as expected for the calcium antagonist class of agents. CONCLUSION These data suggest that azelnidipine controlled morning hypertension well. Furthermore, azelnidipine reduced pulse rates significantly.

Abstract
Ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitoring is superior to clinic BP monitoring in predicting long-term consequences of hypertension. This has raised interest in diurnal variation in BP and elevation in nighttime BP as a prognostic and therapeutic target. Several studies have identified prevalence of nocturnal hypertension in patients with accelerated progression of chronic kidney disease and target organ damage. Some studies suggest that nocturnal BP can be lowered by changing administration of antihypertensive medication to bed time; whether that results in retarding kidney disease progression is not very clear. Further research is needed to determine if certain classes of medications or interventions are superior in controlling nocturnal hypertension, and protocols need to be developed to screen patients for monitoring nocturnal BP. Further studies are needed to evaluate long-term renal outcomes of evening dosing in patients with nocturnal hypertension and chronic kidney disease.

Clinical Implications of the Change in Glomerular Filtration Rate with Adrenergic Blockers in Patients with Morning Hypertension: The Japan Morning Surge-1 Study. Int J Hypertens 2013; 2013:413469. [PMID: 24363933 PMCID: PMC3864142 DOI: 10.1155/2013/413469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2013] [Revised: 10/16/2013] [Accepted: 10/16/2013] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background. The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between the change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin by antihypertensive treatment.Methods. We randomized 611 treated patients with morning hypertension into either an added treatment group, for whom doxazosin was added to the current medication, or a control group, who continued their current medications. We compared the change in eGFR and urinary albumin creatinine ratio (UACR) between the groups.Results. The extent of the reduction in eGFR was significantly greater in the added treatment group than in the control group (−3.83 versus −1.08 mL/min/1.73 m2,P=0.001). In multivariable analyses, the change in eGFR was positively associated with the change in UACR in the added treatment group (β=0.20,P=0.001), but not in the control group (β=−0.002,P=0.97). When the changes in eGFR were divided by each CKD stage, eGFR was significantly more decreased in stage 1 than in the other stages in the added treatment group (P<0.001), but no differences were seen in the control group (P=0.44).Conclusion. The reduction of eGFR could be seen only in the early stage of CKD, and this treatment appeared to have no negative effect on renal function.

Abstract
To determine the role of home blood pressure (BP) monitoring for a reproducible assessment of orthostatic hypertension (OHT) and the effectiveness of hypertension control by doxazosin. In this study, 605 medicated hypertensive outpatients were enrolled. Home BP in the sitting and standing positions was monitored in all patients in the morning and evening for 6 months. According to an open-label multicenter trial design, the patients were randomly allocated to either an intervention group that took doxazosin (1-4 mg) at bedtime or to a control group that did not receive any add-on medication. The patients were divided into deciles of orthostatic BP change as evaluated by home BP monitoring at baseline. Those in the top decile, in the lowest decile and in deciles two through eight were then assigned to the OHT group, the orthostatic hypotension group and the orthostatic normotension group, respectively.Orthostatic BP in the OHYPO group did not change, whereas that of the OHT group was markedly reduced by doxazosin (P<0.01). In the control group, classification into orthostatic BP categories using home BP monitoring was more reproducible (κ coefficient: 0.42-0.50) than when using clinical BP (κ coefficient: 0.13-0.24). In all groups, a reduction in the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio was significantly associated with a reduction in orthostatic BP doxazosin (P<0.001).The identification of OHT based on home BP monitoring was highly reproducible. The administration of doxazosin might control OHT and consequently prevent target organ damage.

Abstract
The effects and duration of action of bedtime administration of doxazosin 2 mg for 4 weeks on uncontrolled morning home hypertension were investigated. Morning home blood pressure (HBP) was significantly lowered by bedtime administration of doxazosin. Doxazosin significantly lowered evening HBP only in the subgroup of patients with an uncontrolled evening HBP. The evening (E)/morning (M) ratio was greater in patients with an uncontrolled evening HBP than in those with a controlled evening HBP. The results suggest that bedtime administration of doxazosin effectively suppresses morning HBP in uncontrolled morning hypertensives and lowers evening HBP in uncontrolled evening hypertensives.

Abstract
There has been no report comparing the changes in home blood pressure (HBP) and target organ damage between depressive and nondepressive hypertensives receiving antihypertensive therapy based on HBP monitoring. This study was a multicenter prospective study conducted by 7 doctors at 2 institutions. The authors prospectively studied 42 hypertensive patients with home systolic blood pressure >135 mm Hg. Participants were divided into a depression group (Beck Depression Inventory score >10; n=21) and a nondepression group (Beck Depression Inventory score <9, matched for HBP level; n=21). The authors performed antihypertensive therapy to reduce home systolic blood pressure to below 135 mm Hg and, 6 months later, evaluated the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR). Although patients in the depression group tended to require the addition of a greater number of medications than those in the nondepression group (2.3+/-1.0 vs 1.7+/-1.0 drugs, P<.05), HBP was reduced similarly in both groups at 6 months (depression group: 150+/-17/78+/-11 mm Hg to 139+/-11/73+/-8 mm Hg, P<.001; nondepression group: 150+/-11/76+/-9 mm Hg to 135+/-9/70+/-8 mm Hg, P<.01). The reduction of UACR was smaller in the depression group than in the nondepression group (2.4 vs 10.1 mg/gCr, P<.05). Depressive hypertensive patients required a larger number of antihypertensive drugs to control HBP, and showed a smaller reduction in UACR than nondepressive hypertensives.

Abstract
Chronotherapy has the potential to improve blood pressure (BP) variability and to decrease stroke and cardiovascular events. The present study examined the efficacy and safety of the bedtime administration in amlodipine-olmesartan combination therapy, as compared with the morning administration. The present study was an open-label, randomized crossover study of the effects of the morning vs. bedtime administration of amlodipine-olmesartan combination. The subject was 31 essential hypertensive patients. Morning BP surge (MBPS) and nocturnal BP pattern were analyzed from ambulatory BP data. Glucose and lipid profiles and cardiovascular-renal data were also collected. The bedtime administration reduced MBPS significantly (24.2 ± 13.5 mmHg vs. 32.3 ± 14.2 mmHg, p < 0.001) with no excessive nocturnal BP fall. In nondipper, the bedtime administration significantly improved nocturnal BP. On the other hand, it did not reduce nocturnal BP in dipper. Urinary albumin/creatinine ratio was lower in the bedtime administration than in the morning administration (42.5 ± 59.9 mg/g vs. 75.3 ± 26.4 mg/g, p = 0.044). In amlodipine-olmesartan combination therapy, the bedtime administration reduced better MBPS with correcting nocturnal BP fall and improved urinary albumin excretion. The bedtime dosing of amlodipine and olmesartan seems more apt than the morning dose to obtain the therapeutic goal.
