Sleep disorders are known to increase the risk of hypertension, yet few studies have
investigated the relation between sleep disorders and morning blood pressure (BP). This …

Sleep disorders have been shown to increase the risk of hypertension, while the relationship
between night sleep latency and hypertension is less well-known. We aimed to investigate …

Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent in patients with high blood pressure
(BP). Severity of SDB can be evaluated by the number of apneas and hypopneas per hour …

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the relationship of sleep duration on workdays and
non-workdays with BP components [systolic BP (SBP), diastolic (DBP), pulse pressure (PP) …

Background Sleep quality and awake physical activity are important behavioral factors
involved in the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases, potentially through nocturnal blood …

A short sleep duration is expected to elevate blood pressure the next morning, but no report
has evaluated this in detail using home blood pressure measurement. In this study, the …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review discusses the recent literature on subjectively and
objectively assessed sleep duration in relation to hypertension risk and out-of-clinic blood …

Background Abnormalities in sleep duration and circadian blood pressure (BP) rhythm are
both independently associated with increased risk of death and cardiovascular disease. The …

Sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is an important risk factor for hypertension and cardiovascular
diseases. Diurnal blood pressure (BP) changes are evaluated by 24 h ambulatory blood …

Objective: Abnormalities in circadian blood pressure (BP) variation, particularly increase in
nocturnal BP, have been reported to be risk factors for cardiovascular disease, although the …
