Abstract
BACKGROUND The SPYRAL HTN-ON MED (Global Clinical Study of Renal Denervation With the Symplicity Spyral Multi-electrode Renal Denervation System in Patients With Uncontrolled Hypertension in the Absence of Antihypertensive Medications)trial showed significant office and nighttime systolic blood pressure (BP) reductions in patients with hypertension following renal denervation (RDN) compared with sham-control patients, despite similar 24-hour BP reductions. We compared antihypertensive medication and BP changes among prespecified subpopulations. METHODS The multicenter, randomized, sham-controlled, blinded SPYRAL HTN-ON MED trial (n=337) evaluated BP changes after RDN compared with a sham procedure in patients with hypertension prescribed 1 to 3 antihypertensive drugs. Most patients (n=187; 54%) were enrolled outside the United States, while 156 (46%) US patients were enrolled, including 60 (18%) Black Americans. RESULTS Changes in detected antihypertensive drugs were similar between RDN and sham group patients in the outside US cohort, while drug increases were significantly more common in the US sham group compared with the RDN group. Patients from outside the United States showed significant reductions in office and 24-hour mean systolic BP at 6 months compared with the sham group, whereas BP changes were similar between RDN and sham in the US cohort. Within the US patient cohort, Black Americans in the sham control group had significant increases in medication burden from baseline through 6 months (P=0.003) but not in the RDN group (P=0.44). CONCLUSIONS Patients enrolled outside the United States had minimal antihypertensive medication changes between treatment groups and had significant office and 24-hour BP reductions compared with the sham group. Increased antihypertensive drug burden in the US sham cohort, especially among Black Americans, may have diluted the treatment effect in the combined trial population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catheter-based renal sympathetic denervation (RDN) reduced blood pressure (BP) in multiple randomized sham-controlled trials of patients with uncontrolled hypertension (HTN). We tested proof-of-concept for a more selective treatment strategy, exclusively targeting these areas to improve the efficiency of the procedure. METHODS The SPYRAL DYSTAL Pilot study was designed to mirror the SPYRAL HTN-OFF MED Pivotal study, enabling comparison with a propensity score adjusted active-control group. Patients were antihypertensive medication-free for one month before undergoing BP assessment. Those with office BP of 150-180/>90 mmHg and with an ambulatory systolic BP of 140-170 mmHg were selected to undergo open label treatment, delivering energy only to the distal main renal arteries and first order branches. Patients from DYSTAL were compared with patients who underwent maximized RF RDN treatment in the prior randomized OFF MED trial at 3 months. After 3 months, patients resumed antihypertensive medications as indicated. Safety and efficacy outcomes were assessed post hoc through 12 months. RESULTS The SPYRAL DYSTAL Pilot study treated 56 HTN patients. Baseline office systolic BP (OSBP) and 24-h ambulatory systolic BP (ASBP) were similar between DYSTAL and OFF MED patient groups. The number of ablations (32.3 ± 8.0 vs 46.6 ± 15.3, p < 0.001), procedure time (67 ± 21 min vs 99 ± 36 min; p < 0.001), and contrast volume (173 ± 77 cc vs 208 ± 96 cc; p = 0.014) were significantly lower with the simplified treatment strategy. OSBP and ASBP changes compared with baseline were -9.0 and -1.4 mmHg at 3 months, -20.3 and -13.9 mmHg at 6 months, and -20.3 and -16.6 mmHg at 12 months, respectively. During the medication up-titration phase, BP reductions among DYSTAL patients were similar to reductions observed in OFF MED through 12 months, with comparable number of drugs (1.4 and 1.5 medications, respectively (P=NS)). Two adverse events related to guidewire placement were reported. CONCLUSION In this pilot study, focusing ablation treatment on the distal main and proximal branch renal arteries was performed, resulting in fewer RF lesions, and reduced contrast volume and procedure time. Whether BP reductions are similar between a selective vs. maximized RDN approach requires further prospective study.

Abstract
AIM There is little information on the relationships of serum small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) levels and serum triglyceride (TG) levels with cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) who are receiving statins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationships of serum TG levels and sdLDL-C levels as residual risks for cardiovascular events in patients with CAD and type 2 DM who were being treated with statins. METHODS The subjects were divided into four groups based on TG levels and sdLDL-C levels: sdLDL-C of <40.0 mg/dL and TG of <150 mg/dL, sdLDL-C of ≥ 40.0 mg/dL and TG of <150 mg/dL, sdLDL-C of <40.0 mg/dL and TG of ≥ 150 mg/dL, and sdLDL-C of ≥ 40.0 mg/dL and TG of ≥ 150 mg/dL. During a median follow-up period of 1419 days, cardiovascular events occurred in 34 patients. RESULTS The incidences of cardiovascular events were significantly higher in patients with sdLDL-C of ≥ 40.0 mg/dL and TG of <150 mg/dL and in patients with sdLDL-C of ≥ 40.0 mg/dL and TG of ≥ 150 mg/dL, but not in patients with sdLDL-C of <40.0 mg/dL and TG of ≥ 150 mg/dL, than in patients with sdLDL-C of <40.0 mg/dL and TG of <150 mg/dL. CONCLUSIONS Under the condition of treatment with statins, patients with CAD and type 2 DM who had sdLDL-C levels of ≥ 40.0 mg/dL had a high risk for cardiovascular events even though serum TG levels were controlled at <150 mg/dL.

Abstract
Background The precise details of atrial activation around the triangle of Koch (ToK) remain unknown. We evaluated the relationship between the atrial-activation pattern around the ToK and success sites for slow-pathway (SP) modification ablation in slow-fast atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT). Methods Thirty patients with slow-fast AVNRT who underwent successful ablation were enrolled. Atrial activation around the ToK during sinus rhythm was investigated using ultra-high-density mapping pre-ablation. The relationships among features of atrial-activation pattern and success sites were examined. Results Of 30 patients (22 cryoablation; 8 radiofrequency ablation), 26 patients had a collision site of two wavefronts of delayed atrial activation within ToK, indicating a success site. The activation-search function of Lumipoint software, which highlights only atrial activation with a spatiotemporal consistency, showed non-highlighted area on the tricuspid-annulus side of ToK. In 23 of the patients, a spiky potential was recorded at that collision site outside the Lumipoint-highlighted area. Fifteen cryoablation patients with a success site coincident with a collision site outside the Lumipoint-highlighted area had significantly more frequent disappearances of SP after initial cryoablation (46.7% vs. 0%, p = .029), fewer cryoablations (3.7 ± 1.8 vs. 5.3 ± 1.3, p = .045), and shorter procedure times (170 ± 57 vs. 228 ± 91 min, p = .082) compared to the seven cryoablation patients without such sites. Four patients had transient AV block by ablation inside the Lumipoint-highlighted area with fractionated signals, but no patient developed permanent AV block or recurrence post-procedure (median follow-up: 375 days). Conclusions SP modification ablation at the collision site of atrial activation of the tricuspid-annulus side along with a spiky potential could provide a better outcome.

Abstract
Residents themselves are responsible for controlling their living environment, and their perception of coldness is important to protect their health. Although previous studies examined the association between perceived coldness and indoor temperature, they did not consider the spatial-temporal differences in indoor temperatures. This study, conducted in Japan, measured indoor temperatures in 1,553 houses across several rooms (living room, changing room, and bedroom) and heights (at 1 m above the floor and near the floor) over two weeks and obtained the perceived coldness from 2,793 participants during winter. Results showed substantial temperature differences between rooms (horizontal differences): 3.8 °C between living and changing rooms, and 4.1 °C between living rooms and bedrooms. The average vertical and diel (evening-morning) temperature differences in the living room were 3.1 °C and 3.0 °C, respectively. Regional analysis revealed that the Tohoku region experienced larger horizontal and diel indoor temperature differences, primarily due to its practice of intermittent and partial heating in living rooms only, in contrast to Hokkaido's approach of heating the entire house continuously. Despite Hokkaido's comprehensive heating system, it exhibited the largest vertical temperature difference of 5.1 °C in living rooms, highlighting the insufficiency of heating alone and the necessity for enhanced thermal insulation. The multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that average temperatures and vertical temperature differences were associated with perceived coldness, while horizontal and diel differences did not show a significant association, further emphasizing the importance of improved thermal insulation. Moreover, factors like individual attributes (age and gender), and lifestyle choices (meal quantity, exercise habits, alcohol consumption, and clothing amount) were significantly associated with coldness perception. Notably, older adults were less likely to perceive coldness but more vulnerable to the health impacts of low temperatures, underscoring the necessity of not solely relying on human perception for indoor temperature management to protect cold-related health problems.

Abstract
Lack of the typical nocturnal blood pressure (BP) fall, i.e non-dipper, has been known as a cardiovascular risk. However, the influence of non-dipper on atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has been unclear. We investigated the clinical impact of non-dipping as evaluated by 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring on the long-term outcome of AF recurrence post-PVI in 76 AF patients with a history of increased BP. The PVI procedure was successful in all 76 patients (mean age, 66±9years; antihypertensive medication, 89%; non-paroxysmal AF, 24%). Twenty patients had AF recurrence during a median follow-up of 1138 days. There was no difference in BP levels between the AF recurrence and non-recurrence groups (average 24 h systolic BP:126 ± 17 vs.125 ± 14 mmHg; P = 0.84). On the other hand, the patients with non-dipper had a higher AF recurrence than those with dipper (38.9% vs.15.0%; P = 0.018). In Cox hazard analysis adjusted by age, non-paroxysmal AF and average 24-hr systolic BP level, the non-dipper was an independent predictor of AF recurrence (HR 2.78 [95%CI:1.05-7.34], P = 0.039). Non-dipper patients had a larger left atrial (LA) volume index than the dipper patients (45.9 ± 17.3 vs.38.3 ± 10.2 ml/m2, P = 0.037). Among the 58 patients who underwent high-density voltage mapping in LA, 11 patients had a low-voltage area (LVA) defined as an area with a bipolar voltage < 0.5 mV. However, there was no association of LVA with non-dipper or dipper (22.2% vs.16.1%, P = 0.555). Non-dipper is an independent predictor of AF recurrence post-PVI. Management of abnormal diurnal BP variation post-PVI may be important.

Abstract
Hypertension, a disease whose prevalence increases with age, induces pathological conditions of ischemic vascular disorders such as cerebral infarction and myocardial infarction due to accelerated arteriosclerosis and circulatory insufficiency of small arteries and sometimes causes hemorrhagic conditions such as cerebral hemorrhage and ruptured aortic aneurysm. On the other hand, as it is said that aging starts with the blood vessels, impaired blood flow associated with vascular aging is the basis for the development of many pathological conditions, and ischemic changes in target organs associated with vascular disorders result in tissue dysfunction and degeneration, inducing organ hypofunction and dysfunction. Therefore, we hypothesized that hypertension is associated with all age-related vascular diseases, and attempted to review the relationship between hypertension and diseases for which a relationship has not been previously well reported. Following our review, we hope that a collaborative effort to unravel age-related diseases from the perspective of hypertension will be undertaken together with experts in various specialties regarding the relationship of hypertension to all pathological conditions.

Abstract
Hypertension is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the association between blood pressure (BP) and CVD events has been based on mean BP alone. BP variability (BPV) is associated with increased organ damage and CVD events independently or beyond average home BP. To explain this association, we propose the systemic hemodynamic atherothrombotic syndrome (SHATS) hypothesis. The SHATS hypothesis indicates that hemodynamic stress increases vascular disease and vice versa, leading to a vicious cycle of the association between hemodynamic stress and a vascular disease; this association provides not only the risk but also the trigger for CVD events. The evidences of SHATS were gradually accumulating. We showed arterial stiffness synergistically amplified the association between hemodynamic stress and cardiac overload / CVD events in patients with at least one CVD risk factor.

Abstract
Obesity with increased high-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) has been reported to be more likely to progress cardiovascular disease (CVD) events, which suggests that hs-cTnT may identify a "malignant" phenotype of obesity. We classified 3513 hypertensive patients from the Japan Morning Surge-Home Blood Pressure (J-HOP) study into groups based on body mass index (BMI) (normal weight: <25 kg/m2, overweight: 25-29.9 kg/m2, obesity: ≥30 kg/m2) and elevations in biomarker levels (hs-cTnT ≥3 ng/mL: 51.3%, 54.9%, 53.3%, and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide [NT-ProBNP] ≥55 pg/mL: 51.1%, 40.7%, 36.0% in each BMI category). We evaluated the independent and combined associations of BMI and each hs-cTnT/NT-proBNP or both with CVD events (fatal and nonfatal coronary artery disease, stroke, and hospitalized heart failure). During the mean 6.4 ± 3.9-year follow-up, 232 CVD events occurred. Obesity with elevated hs-cTnT was associated with a risk of CVD events compared to normal weight without elevated hs-cTnT (hazard ratio 3.22, 95% confidence interval: 1.83-5.68). A similar pattern of results was also observed across the status of obesity and elevated NT-proBNP. There was a significant interaction between hs-cTnT and CVD events according to the obesity status (p = 0.039), while this association was marginal in NT-proBNP (p = 0.060). The magnitude of the mediation of hs-cTnT for the association between obesity and CVD risk was 41.2%, and that for NT-proBNP was 8.1%. In this Japanese hypertensive population, the elevation of hs-cTnT identified obese patients at particularly high risk for developing CVD events, suggesting that hs-cTnT may identify a 'malignant' phenotype of obesity.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and associated nocturnal blood pressure (BP) surges is associated with non-dipper. On the other hand, the relationship between neurodegenerative diseases and non-dipper hypertension has been reported. To date, few studies have evaluated the relationships of nocturnal BP dipping patterns and OSA in relation to neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease (AD). This review examines the etiology of the association between OSA and the non-dipper pattern of hypertension and how both are involved in the development of AD. To set the stage for this review, we first focus on the pathophysiology of AD, which is interrelated with sleep apnea and non-dipper through dysregulation of central autonomic network.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The long-term benefit of achieving the Japanese Society of Hypertension home systolic blood pressure (SBP) target of <125 mm Hg has not been fully evaluated. This study investigated the long-term risk of cardiovascular disease events in individuals with home SBP <125 versus 125 to <135 or ≥135 mm Hg who participated in the J-HOP study (Japan Morning Surge-Home Blood Pressure). METHODS The J-HOP study enrolled outpatients with ≥1 cardiovascular risk factor between 2005 and 2012, with follow-up until March 2015 and extended follow-up from December 2017 to May 2018. Cardiovascular disease events (stroke, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure, and aortic dissection) were compared between home SBP subgroups. RESULTS During mean 5.9 years of follow-up in 4231 participants (mean age, 65 years), cardiovascular events included stroke (n=89), coronary artery disease (n=116), congestive heart failure (n=37), and aortic dissection (n=8). The adjusted 10-year risk of total cardiovascular disease was slightly higher, and stroke risk was significantly higher when baseline home SBP was ≥135 versus <125 mm Hg (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.39 [95% CI, 0.97-2.00] for overall cardiovascular disease and 2.68 [95% CI, 1.34-5.38] for stroke; this was largely due to between-group differences in the first 5 years of follow-up, which were maintained over the subsequent 5 years). Findings were similar in the subgroup of high-risk patients (those with diabetes or stroke history). CONCLUSIONS These data highlight the potential long-term benefit of strict home SBP control and validate this as an appropriate Japanese Society of Hypertension guideline target although confirmation in larger populations is needed.

Abstract
Cognitive impairment (CI) is frequently a comorbid condition in heart failure (HF) patients, and is associated with increased cardiovascular events and death. Numerous factors contribute to CI in HF patients. Decreased cerebral blood flow, inflammation, and activation of neurohumoral factors are all thought to be factors that exacerbate CI. Hypoperfusion of the brain due to decreased systemic blood flow, cerebral venous congestion, and atherosclerosis are the main mechanism of CI in HF patients. Abnormal circadian BP rhythm is one of the other conditions associated with CI. The conditions in which BP does not decrease sufficiently or increases during the night are called non-dipper or riser BP patterns. Abnormal circadian BP rhythm worsens CI in HF patients through cerebral congestion during sleep and atherosclerosis due to pressure overload. Interventions for CI in HF patients include treatment for HF itself using cardiovascular drugs, and treatment for fluid retention, one of the causes of abnormal circadian rhythms. Proposed pathways of cognitive impairment in heart failure through abnormal circadian blood pressure rhythm.

Abstract
Several studies investigated the association between nighttime blood pressure (BP) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in diabetes, but since most of these studies were conducted in diabetes populations only, they did not compare differences in the impact of nighttime BP on LVH in subjects without diabetes. Moreover, data about the impact of glucose control in diabetes on the relationship between nighttime BP and LVH are sparse. We classified 1277 adults (age 64.7 ± 11.8 years) performing ambulatory BP monitoring while enrolled as part of the Japan Morning Surge Home Blood Pressure (J-HOP) study into groups according to the control status of daytime BP (systolic BP [SBP] < 135 mmHg or ≥135 mmHg), nighttime BP (SBP < 120 mmHg or ≥120 mmHg), and diabetes (HbA1c < 7.0% or ≥7.0%). LVH was assessed by echocardiography. LVH according to echocardiographic criteria was identified in 33.7% of the participants. The group with poorly controlled diabetes plus uncontrolled nighttime BP (n = 90) had a 2.1-fold higher risk of LVH compared to the group with controlled nighttime BP and non-diabetes (n = 505) (odds ratio [OR] 2.10, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.29-3.44). No association was observed between uncontrolled daytime BP and diabetes for LVH. In the participants with poorly controlled diabetes (n = 146), uncontrolled nighttime BP posed a 3.1-fold higher risk of LVH compared to controlled nighttime BP (OR 3.12, 95%CI: 1.47-6.62). This association was not found in controlled diabetes. Uncontrolled nighttime BP was associated with a risk of LVH, especially among individuals with poorly controlled diabetes.

Abstract
Time in therapeutic range (TTR) for office systolic blood pressure (SBP) is an independent predictor of major cardiovascular events. However, the clinical implications of TTR for home SBP have not yet been investigated. This study determined the association between TTR of home SBP and cardiovascular events in individuals with ≥1 cardiovascular risk factor who were enrolled in The Japan Morning Surge-Home Blood Pressure (J-HOP) study. The therapeutic range for home SBP was defined as home SBP of 100-135 mmHg during the 13-day baseline period of the J-HOP study. Participants were divided into subgroups based on quartiles of TTR for home SBP, and the risk of cardiovascular events was determined in each quartile. During a mean 6.3 years of follow-up in 4070 participants (mean age 65 years), cardiovascular events included stroke in 92, coronary artery disease in 119, heart failure in 41 and aortic dissection in 8. The adjusted hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) for the risk of total cardiovascular events in participants with home SBP TTR in the lowest (100%) versus highest quartile (<15.3%) was 1.74 (1.16-2.61); the corresponding hazard ratio for stroke events was 2.11 (1.06-4.21). A 10% decrease in home SBP TTR was associated with a 4% increase in the risk of total cardiovascular events (p = 0.033) and a 9% increase in the risk of stroke (p = 0.004). The significant association seen between home SBP TTR and the occurrence of cardio- and cerebrovascular events highlights the importance of achieving stable reductions in home SBP and minimizing day-by-day home BP variability.Clinical Trial Registration: University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry, UMIN000000894 (J-HOP study).

Abstract
Digital therapeutics for hypertension, proven effective in the HERB-DH1 trial, enable patients to record and track their daily actions and achievements to improve their lifestyles using an app. However, the association between recording daily behaviours and blood pressure (BP) reduction has not yet been investigated. We conducted a post-hoc analysis to investigate the relationship between them in the HERB-DH1 trial. We defined the counts of daily records of antihypertensive behaviour taken by the patient into the app as daily self-reported behavioural efficacy records (SER). SER was categorised into quartiles, and the trend of changes from baseline to week 12 in morning home systolic blood pressure (SBP), salt intake checklist score, and body weight was assessed. A total of 156 patients with hypertension were included in the analysis. A higher total count of SER was associated with greater SBP reduction (P for trend: 0.049). Patients with a higher SER for salt intake and weight reduction showed reductions in SBP (P for trend: 0.034 and 0.027, respectively). Furthermore, patients with higher salt intake SER exhibited a decrease in the salt intake checklist scores, and patients with greater weight reduction SER experienced a reduction in body weight (P for trend: 0.001 and 0.007, respectively). SER during digital therapeutics is associated with a reduction in morning home SBP in patients with hypertension. Enhancing patients' intrinsic motivation and self-efficacy, as evaluated by the SER, can play an important role in reducing BP by promoting lifestyle improvement. Daily self-reported behavioural efficacy records (SER) defined as the number of patient's app inputs of recall of day-by-day activity of behaviours at the end of the day, is partially affected by self-efficacy and affinity of app, resulting in the effectiveness of digital therapeutics.

Abstract
Spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) is used to assess cardiovascular autonomic function. In the power density spectrum calculated from a time series of the R-R interval (RRI), three main components are distinguished: very-low-frequency (VLF; 0.003-0.04 Hz), low-frequency (LF; 0.04-0.15 Hz), and high-frequency (HF; 0.15-0.4 Hz) components. However, the physiological correlates of these frequency components have yet to be determined. In this study, we conducted spectral analysis of data segments of various lengths (5, 30, 100, and 200 s) of the RRI time series during active standing. Because of the trade-off relationship between time and frequency resolution, the analysis of the RRI data segment shorter than 30 s was needed to identify the temporal relationships between individual transient increases in RRI and the resulting spectral power changes. In contrast, the segment of 200 s was needed to properly evaluate the magnitude of the increase in the VLF power. The results showed that a transient increase in the RRI was tightly associated with simultaneous increases in the powers of the VLF, LF, and HF components. We further found that the simultaneous power increases in these three components were caused by the arterial baroreceptor reflex responding to rapid blood pressure rise.

Abstract
Cognitive function tends to decline with age, and individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) often have difficulty completing established self-management tasks. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the number of days within a 5-and-a-half-day period that patients took their home blood pressure (BP) as instructed and MCI assessed by the Japanese version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-J) in an elderly clinical population. We analyzed 303 ambulatory patients (mean age 77.3 ± 8.2 years) in whom MoCA-J had been assessed, who were instructed to take home BP for 1 evening and twice a day for the next five days, and who had at least one morning home BP measurement. After accounting for patient characteristics including age, sex, body mass index, drinking, smoking, prevalent cardiovascular disease, morning systolic BP and diastolic BP, and the use of antihypertensive drugs, the number of days home BP was measured was independently associated with both total MoCA-J score (estimate, 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.43-1.21; P < 0.001) and the lowest quartile of MoCA-J score (13 or below) (odds ratio [OR], 0.72; 95%CI, 0.59-0.87; P = 0.001). Home BP measurement noncompliance (<5 days' measurement) was also independently associated with the total MoCA-J score (estimate, -2.56; 95%CI, -4.09 to -1.03; P = 0.001) and the lowest quartile of MoCA-J score (OR, 3.32; 95%CI, 1.59-6.96; P = 0.001). In conclusion, poor compliance with home BP monitoring was associated with cognitive impairment in elderly cases who had been specifically instructed to perform home BP monitoring during a designated period.

Abstract
Although previous reports have shown that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have a blood pressure (BP) lowering effect, relevant long-term data is limited. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the SGLT2 inhibitor ipragliflozin on BP, and associations between BP reduction and changes in cardiometabolic variables in diabetic patients. This was a sub-analysis of the PROTECT trial, a multicenter, randomized, open-label study to assess if ipragliflozin delays carotid atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes. Participants were randomized to ipragliflozin and control groups. The primary endpoint of the present sub-analysis was the trajectory of systolic BP over 24 months. Correlations between systolic BP changes and cardiometabolic variables were also evaluated. A total of 232 eligible participants with well-balanced baseline characteristics were included in each study group. Throughout the 24-month study period, mean systolic BP was lower in the ipragliflozin group. At 24 months, a between-group difference (ipragliflozin minus control) in mean systolic BP change from baseline was -3.6 mmHg (95% confidence interval, -6.2 to -1.0 mmHg), and the reduction in systolic BP in the ipragliflozin group was consistent across subgroups examined. Changes in systolic BP significantly correlated with those in body mass index in the ipragliflozin group, while no significant correlations with other cardiometabolic variables tested were observed. In conclusion, ipragliflozin treatment was associated with BP reduction throughout the 24-month follow-up period as compared to control treatment. BP reduction correlated with weight loss, which might be one of the mechanisms for the BP lowering effect of SGLT2 inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Using high awake blood pressure (BP; ≥130/80 mm Hg) on ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) as a reference, the purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of high office BP (≥130/80 mm Hg) at an initial visit and high confirmatory office BP (≥130/80 mm Hg), and separately, high home BP (≥130/80 mm Hg) among participants with high office BP (≥130/80 mm Hg) at an initial office visit. METHODS AND RESULTS The accuracy of office BP measurements using the oscillometric method for detecting high BP on ABPM was determined among 379 participants with complete office BP and ABPM data in the IDH (Improving the Detection of Hypertension) study. For detecting high BP on ABPM, the accuracy of high confirmatory office BP using the oscillometric method and, separately, high home BP was also determined among the subgroup of 122 participants with high office BP at an initial visit and complete home BP monitoring data. High office BP had moderate sensitivity (0.61 [95% CI, 0.53-0.68]) and high specificity (0.85 [95% CI, 0.80-0.90]) for high awake BP. High confirmatory office BP and high home BP had moderate sensitivity (0.69 [95% CI, 0.59-0.79] and 0.79 [95% CI, 0.71-0.87], respectively) and low and moderate specificity (0.44 [95% CI, 0.27-0.61] and 0.72 [95% CI, 0.56-0.88], respectively). CONCLUSIONS Many individuals with high BP on ABPM do not have high office BP. Confirmatory office BP and home blood pressure monitoring also had limited ability to identify individuals with high BP on ABPM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the association between heart failure (HF) severity measured based on brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and future bleeding events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND The Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk presents a bleeding risk assessment for antithrombotic therapy in patients after PCI. HF is a risk factor for bleeding in Japanese patients. METHODS Using an electronic medical record-based database with seven tertiary hospitals in Japan, this retrospective study included 7160 patients who underwent PCI between April 2014 and March 2020 and who completed a 3-year follow-up and were divided into three groups: no HF, HF with high BNP level and HF with low BNP level. The primary outcome was bleeding events according to the Global Use of Streptokinase and t-PA for Occluded Coronary Arteries classification of moderate and severe bleeding. The secondary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Furthermore, thrombogenicity was measured using the Total Thrombus-Formation Analysis System (T-TAS) in 536 consecutive patients undergoing PCI between August 2013 and March 2017 at Kumamoto University Hospital. RESULTS Multivariate Cox regression showed that HF with high BNP level was significantly associated with bleeding events, MACE and all-cause death. In the T-TAS measurement, the thrombogenicity was lower in patients with HF with high BNP levels than in those without HF and with HF with low BNP levels. CONCLUSIONS HF with high BNP level is associated with future bleeding events, suggesting that bleeding risk might differ depending on HF severity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blood pressure (BP) thresholds for diagnosing and managing hypertension vary for office, home, and ambulatory readings, and between guideline documents. This analysis determined corresponding office, home, and ambulatory BP thresholds using baseline data from the HI-JAMP (Home-Activity Information and Communication Technology-Based Japan Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Prospective) study, which used a validated "all-in-one" BP monitoring device. METHODS AND RESULTS Data from 2322 treated patients with hypertension who underwent office BP measurement, then 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring, then home BP monitoring for 5 days were analyzed. Corresponding BP thresholds for office, home, and ambulatory measurements were determined using Deming regression. Values equivalent to office systolic BP (SBP) of 120 and 140 mm Hg were as follows: 115.9 and 127.7 mm Hg for 24-hour ambulatory SBP; 120.8 and 134.0 mm Hg for daytime ambulatory SBP; 104.9 and 117.9 mm Hg for nighttime ambulatory SBP; and 122.0 and 134.2 mm Hg for morning-evening average home SBP. Deming regression showed that morning-evening average home SBP and daytime ambulatory SBP were almost the same (home SBP=0.99×daytime ambulatory SBP+0.27 mm Hg; r=0.627). Morning-evening average home SBP values of 120 and 135 mm Hg were equivalent to daytime ambulatory SBP values of 119.1 and 133.9 mm Hg, respectively. A home SBP threshold of 130 mm Hg corresponded to 24-hour and nighttime ambulatory SBP values of 123.5 and 113.6 mm Hg, whereas a home SBP threshold of 135 mm Hg corresponded to 24-hour and nighttime ambulatory SBP values of 128.0 and 119.2 mm Hg. CONCLUSIONS Ambulatory and home BP thresholds in this analysis were similar to those proposed by existing guidelines. The similarity between the home BP and daytime ambulatory BP thresholds was a clinically relevant finding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is intense effort to develop cuffless blood pressure (BP) measuring devices, and several are already on the market claiming that they provide accurate measurements. These devices are heterogeneous in measurement principle, intended use, functions, and calibration, and have special accuracy issues requiring different validation than classic cuff BP monitors. To date, there are no generally accepted protocols for their validation to ensure adequate accuracy for clinical use. OBJECTIVE This statement by the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) Working Group on BP Monitoring and Cardiovascular Variability recommends procedures for validating intermittent cuffless BP devices (providing measurements every >30 sec and usually 30-60 min, or upon user initiation), which are most common. VALIDATION PROCEDURES Six validation tests are defined for evaluating different aspects of intermittent cuffless devices: static test (absolute BP accuracy); device position test (hydrostatic pressure effect robustness); treatment test (BP decrease accuracy); awake/asleep test (BP change accuracy); exercise test (BP increase accuracy); and recalibration test (cuff calibration stability over time). Not all these tests are required for a given device. The necessary tests depend on whether the device requires individual user calibration, measures automatically or manually, and takes measurements in more than one position. CONCLUSION The validation of cuffless BP devices is complex and needs to be tailored according to their functions and calibration. These ESH recommendations present specific, clinically meaningful, and pragmatic validation procedures for different types of intermittent cuffless devices to ensure that only accurate devices will be used in the evaluation and management of hypertension.

Abstract
The benefits of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and warfarin in elderly Japanese patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and high home systolic blood pressure (H-SBP) are unclear. This sub-cohort study of the ANAFIE Registry estimated the incidence of clinical outcomes in patients receiving anticoagulant therapy (warfarin and DOACs) stratified by H-SBP levels (<125 mmHg, ≥125-<135 mmHg, ≥135-<145 mmHg and ≥145 mmHg). Of the overall ANAFIE population, 4933 patients who underwent home blood pressure (H-BP) measurements were analyzed; 93% received OACs (DOACs: 3494, 70.8%; warfarin: 1092, 22.1%). In the warfarin group, at <125 mmHg and ≥145 mmHg, the respective incidence rates (per 100 person-years) were 1.91 and 5.89 for net cardiovascular outcome (a composite of stroke/systemic embolic events (SEE) and major bleeding), 1.31 and 3.39 for stroke/SEE, 0.59 and 3.91 for major bleeding, 0.59 and 3.43 for intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), and 4.01 and 6.24 for all-cause death. Corresponding incidence rates in the DOACs group were 1.64 and 2.65, 1.00 and 1.88, 0.78 and 1.69, 0.55 and 1.31, and 3.43 and 3.51. In warfarin-treated patients, the incidence rates of net cardiovascular outcome, stroke/SEE, major bleeding, and ICH were significantly increased at H-SBP ≥ 145 mmHg versus <125 mmHg. In the DOAC group, although there was no significant difference between H-SBP < 125 mmHg and ≥145 mmHg, the incidence rates of these events tended to increase at ≥145 mmHg. These results suggest that strict BP control guided by H-BP is required in elderly NVAF patients receiving anticoagulant therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although blood pressure variability (BPV) is reported to be associated with cardiovascular prognoses, it has not been established whether ambulatory BPV (ABPV; ie, short-term 24-hour BPV) or home BPV (HBPV; day-to-day BPV) is a superior clinical marker. METHODS We analyzed the associations of ABPV and HBPV with cardiovascular prognoses and biomarkers in 1314 hypertensive outpatients who underwent both home and ambulatory BP measurements in the J-HOP study (Japan Morning-Surge Home Blood Pressure). BPV was evaluated by the SD, coefficient of variation, and average real variability of the patients' 24-hour ambulatory and home systolic BP values. RESULTS During the median 7.0-year follow-up, 109 cardiovascular events occurred. All SD, coefficient of variation, and average real variability values of the HBPV were significantly associated with cardiovascular risk even after adjusting by average 24-hour ambulatory systolic BP and each ABPV value: 1 SD of hazard ratio (95% CI) for the SD, 1.36 (1.14-1.63); coefficient of variation, 1.38 (1.16-1.66); and average real variability 1.29 (1.10-1.51) of HBPV. The ABPV parameters did not exhibit comparable relationships. The cardiovascular risk spline curves showed a trend toward increased risks with increasing HBPV parameters. There were no differences between ABPV and HBPV in the relationships with B-type natriuretic peptide and the urine albumin-creatine ratio. CONCLUSIONS In this comparative analysis of ambulatory and home BP monitoring values in individuals with hypertension, ABPV was not significantly associated with cardiovascular prognosis adjusted by average BP level, and HBPV was suggested to have modest superiority in predicting cardiovascular prognosis compared with ABPV.

Abstract
Recent innovations in digital technology have enabled the simultaneous accumulation, and the linking and analysis of time-series big data relating to several factors that influence blood pressure (BP), including biological indicators, physical activity, and environmental information. Various approaches can be used to monitor BP: in the office/clinic; at home; 24-h ambulatory recording; or with wearable and cuffless devices. Of these, home BP monitoring is a reliable and convenient method, and is recommended for hypertension management by current national and international guidelines. This recommendation is based on evidence showing that home BP is an important predictor of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and kidney disease in patients with hypertension. In addition, lifetime personalized health record (PHR)-based home BP with telemonitoring combined with co-interventions has been shown to lower BP more effectively than the traditional approach based on office BP. Thus, home BP represents a key metric for personalized anticipation medicine, from digital healthcare to digital medicine. This paper summarizes the latest evidence on home BP monitoring and proposes a Hypertension Cardiovascular Outcome Prevention and Evidence in Asia (HOPE Asia) Network consensus on a home BP-centered approach to the management of hypertension.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop scientific consensus recommendations for the optimal design and functions of different types of blood pressure (BP) measuring devices used in clinical practice for the detection, management, and long-term follow-up of hypertension. METHODS A scientific consensus meeting was performed by the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) Working Group on BP Monitoring and Cardiovascular Variability and STRIDE BP (Science and Technology for Regional Innovation and Development in Europe) during the 2022 Scientific Meeting of the ESH in Athens, Greece. Manufacturers were also invited to provide their feedback on BP device design and development. Thirty-one international experts in clinical hypertension and BP monitoring contributed to the development of consensus recommendations on the optimal design of BP devices. STATEMENT International consensus was reached on the requirements for the design and features of five types of BP monitors, including office (or clinic) BP monitors, ambulatory BP monitors, home BP monitors, home BP telemonitors, and kiosk BP monitors for public spaces. For each device type "essential" requirements (must have), and "optional" ones (may have) are presented, as well as additional comments on the optimal device design and features. CONCLUSIONS These consensus recommendations aim at providing manufacturers of BP devices with the requirements that are considered mandatory, or optional, by clinical experts involved in the detection and management of hypertension. They are also directed to administrative healthcare personnel involved in the provision and purchase of BP devices so that they can recommend the most appropriate ones.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal denervation (RDN) reduces blood pressure (BP) in patients with uncontrolled hypertension in the absence of antihypertensive medications. OBJECTIVES This trial assessed the safety and efficacy of RDN in the presence of antihypertensive medications. METHODS SPYRAL HTN-ON MED is a prospective, randomized, sham-controlled, patient- and assessor-blinded trial enrolling patients from 56 clinical centers worldwide. Patients were prescribed 1 to 3 antihypertensive medications. Patients were randomized to radiofrequency RDN or sham control procedure. The primary efficacy endpoint was the baseline-adjusted change in mean 24-hour ambulatory systolic BP at 6 months between groups using a Bayesian trial design and analysis. RESULTS The treatment difference in the mean 24-hour ambulatory systolic BP from baseline to 6 months between the RDN group (n = 206; -6.5 ± 10.7 mm Hg) and sham control group (n = 131; -4.5 ± 10.3 mm Hg) was -1.9 mm Hg (95% CI: -4.4 to 0.5 mm Hg; P = 0.12). There was no significant difference between groups in the primary efficacy analysis with a posterior probability of superiority of 0.51 (Bayesian treatment difference: -0.03 mm Hg [95% CI: -2.82 to 2.77 mm Hg]). However, there were changes and increases in medication intensity among sham control patients. RDN was associated with a reduction in office systolic BP compared with sham control at 6 months (adjusted treatment difference: -4.9 mm Hg; P = 0.0015). Night-time BP reductions and win ratio analysis also favored RDN. There was 1 adverse safety event among 253 assessed patients. CONCLUSIONS There was no significant difference between groups in the primary analysis. However, multiple secondary endpoint analyses favored RDN over sham control.

Abstract
"Digital Hypertension" is a new research field proposed by the Japanese Society of Hypertension that integrates digital technology into hypertension management and proactively promotes research activities. This novel approach includes the development of new technologies for better BP management, such as sensors for detecting environmental factors that affect BP, information processing, and machine learning. To facilitate "Digital Hypertension," a more sophisticated BP monitoring system capable of measuring an individual's BP more frequently in various situations would be required. With the use of these technologies, hypertension management could shift from the current "dots" management based on office BP readings during clinic visits to a "line" management system based on seamless home BP or individual BP data taken by a wearable BP monitoring device. DTx is the innovation to change hypertension management from "dots" to "line", completely achieved by wearable BP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home blood pressure (BP) is an important component of digital strategies for hypertension management. However, no studies have used the same device to investigate 24-hour BP control status in relation to different home BP control thresholds. METHODS Participants in the general practitioner-based, multicenter HI-JAMP study (Home-Activity Information and Communication Technology-Based Japan Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring Prospective) underwent office BP measurement, then 24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring, then home BP monitoring for 5 days. A validated all-in-one BP monitoring device was used to measure office, home, and ambulatory BP. Baseline data were used to investigate ambulatory BP control status in individuals with well-controlled home BP based on the different guideline thresholds (125/75 mm Hg, 130/80 mm Hg, and 135/85 mm Hg). RESULTS Data from 2269 patients were analyzed. For individuals with well-controlled home BP <135/85 mm Hg (59.5% of the total population), the prevalence of uncontrolled 24-hour (≥130/80 mm Hg), daytime (≥135/85 mm Hg), and nighttime ambulatory BP (≥120/70 mm Hg) was 19.9%, 18.5%, and 33.6%, respectively. Corresponding prevalence rates in the 42.7% of participants with well-controlled home BP <130/80 mm Hg were 13.4%, 12.9%, and 26.0%, and when well-controlled home BP was strictly defined as <125/75 mm Hg (23.9% of the population), prevalence of rates of uncontrolled 24-hour, daytime, and nighttime ambulatory BP were 7.0%, 9.0%, and 15.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Home BP control status defined using different thresholds could predict 24-hour ambulatory BP control status in treated hypertension. One-third of individuals still had uncontrolled nocturnal hypertension when home BP was controlled to <135/85 mm Hg, but ambulatory BP was quite well controlled when home BP was <125/75 mm Hg.

Abstract
For adopting recently introduced hypertension phenotypes categorized using office and out of office blood pressure (BP) for the diagnosis of hypertension and antihypertension drug therapy, it is mandatory to define the corresponding out of office BP with the specific target BP recommended by the major guidelines. Such conditions include white-coat hypertension (WCH), masked hypertension (MH), white-coat uncontrolled hypertension (WUCH), and masked uncontrolled hypertension (MUCH). Here, the authors review the relevant literature and discuss the related issue to facilitate the use of corresponding BPs for proper diagnosis of WCH, MH, WUCH, and MUCH in the setting of standard target BP as well as intensive target BP. The methodology of deriving the corresponding BP has evolved from statistical methods such as standard deviation, percentile value, and regression to an outcome-based approach using pooled international cohort study data and comparative analysis in randomized clinical trials for target BPs such as the SPRINT and STEP studies. Corresponding BPs to 140/90 and 130/80 mm Hg in office BP is important for safe and strict achievement of intensive BP targets. The corresponding home, daytime, and 24-h BPs to 130/80 mm Hg in office BP are 130/80, 130/80, and 125/75 mm Hg, respectively. However, researchers have found some discrepancies among the home corresponding BPs. As tentative criterion for de-escalation of antihypertensive therapy as shown in European guidelines was 120 mm Hg in office BP, corresponding home, daytime, and 24-h systolic BPs to 120 mm Hg in office systolic BP are 120, 120, and 115 mm Hg, respectively.

Abstract
Previous studies have reported a significant relationship between hypertension and nocturia. However, the underlying pathophysiology associated with pulse rate (PR) remains unclear. In the Japan Morning Surge-Home Blood Pressure Study, a self-administered nocturia questionnaire and evening home blood pressure (BP) and PR measurements (taken on a mean of 11.2 days) were performed on 4310 patients with one or more cardiovascular risk factors (mean: 64.9 years old; 47% male). According to the number of nighttime voids, the study population was divided into three groups (no voids: n = 2382; 1 void: n = 847; ≥2 voids per night: n = 1082). In the multinomial logistic regression analysis adjusted for confounders, diuretic use (OR, 1.23; 95%CI, 1.01-1.50; p < 0.05) was significantly associated with one nocturnal void, whereas evening home systolic BP (SBP) (OR per 1 SD, 1.14; 95%CI, 1.05-1.24; p < 0.01) and evening home PR (OR per 1 SD, 1.12; 95%CI: 1.02-1.24; p < 0.05) were significantly associated with multiple nocturnal voids. In the younger group (<65 years), only evening home PR was significantly related to multiple nighttime voids (p < 0.01), whereas in the older group (≥65 years), only evening home SBP was significantly related to multiple nighttime voids (p = 0.02). In this study, both higher evening home PR and higher evening home SBP were associated with multiple nighttime voids, with the former playing a greater role in the younger participants, and the latter more often associating the older group. An age-stratified approach to reduce the burden of BP or PR might be important to improve sleep quality.
