To compare the predictive power of home blood pressure (HBP) measured in the evening (E-HBP) and that of casual screening BP (CBP) for stroke risk in relation to the number of E-HBP measurements.
We obtained E-HBP (measured once in the evening just before going to bed for 4 weeks) and CBP (measured twice during the health checkup) from 2234 Japanese participants aged >or=35 years who had no history of a previous stroke. The participants were followed-up for a median duration of 11.9 years. The multivariate adjusted relative hazard (RH) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for each 10 mmHg (systolic) or 5 mmHg (diastolic) increase in BP was determined by Cox regression model.
There were 226 incidences of stroke. Even the initial E-HBP values significantly predicted future stroke events (systolic RH=1.19, 95% CI=1.11-1.28; diastolic RH=1.12, 95% CI=1.06-1.19), and the predictive power of E-HBP increased progressively with the increased number of measurements. When initial systolic E-HBP and systolic CBP values were simultaneously included into the Cox model, only initial E-HBP was significantly related with stroke risk (E-HBP RH=1.17, 95% CI=1.08-1.26; CBP RH=1.07, 95% CI=0.99-1.15).
E-HBP has a stronger predictive power than CBP regardless of the number of measurements. Our findings emphasize the important clinical significance of E-HBP over CBP, even though the measurement conditions of E-HBP are generally less strict than that of morning HBP measurements.
比较晚间家庭血压(E-HBP)与偶测血压(CBP)对卒中风险的预测能力,并探讨其与E-HBP测量次数的关系。
我们收集了2234名年龄≥35岁、既往无卒中病史的日本参与者的E-HBP(连续4周每晚睡前测量一次)和CBP(健康体检时测量两次)数据。对参与者进行了为期11.9年的中位随访。采用Cox回归模型确定血压每升高10 mmHg(收缩压)或5 mmHg(舒张压)时的多变量调整相对危险度(RH)及95%置信区间(CI)。
共发生226例卒中事件。即使是初始E-HBP值也能显著预测未来卒中事件(收缩压RH=1.19,95%CI=1.11-1.28;舒张压RH=1.12,95%CI=1.06-1.19),且E-HBP的预测能力随测量次数的增加而逐渐增强。当将初始收缩压E-HBP和收缩压CBP值同时纳入Cox模型时,只有初始E-HBP与卒中风险显著相关(E-HBP RH=1.17,95%CI=1.08-1.26;CBP RH=1.07,95%CI=0.99-1.15)。
无论测量次数多少,E-HBP的预测能力均强于CBP。我们的研究结果强调了E-HBP相对于CBP的重要临床意义,尽管E-HBP的测量条件通常不如早晨家庭血压测量严格。
