Masked hypertension is defined as a normal blood pressure (BP) in the clinic or office (<
140/90 mmHg), but an elevated BP out of the clinic (ambulatory daytime BP or home BP> …

Elevated blood pressure (BP) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) events and
mortality (1) and a leading contributor to the global disease burden (2). Overwhelming …

Background It is recognized that for the reliable assessment of blood pressure (BP) and the
accurate diagnosis of hypertension, out-of-office BP measurement with ambulatory (ABPM) …

Home blood pressure monitoring provides multiple measurements in the usual environment
of each individual, allows the detection of intermediate hypertension phenotypes (white‐coat …

Reverse or inverted dipping (ie, the phenomenon characterized by higher nighttime
compared with daytime blood pressure values) is an alteration of circadian blood pressure …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review aimed to provide a clinical update on exercise
blood pressure (BP) and its relationship to cardiovascular disease (CVD), outlining key …

The prognostic relevance of masked uncontrolled hypertension (MUCH) is incompletely
clear, and its global impact on cardiovascular outcomes and mortality has not been …
