Aims Blood pressure variability is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events,
particularly in high-risk patients. We assessed if variability was associated with increased …

In recent clinical investigations, visit‐to‐visit systolic blood pressure (SBP) variability was
proven as a predictor of cardiovascular events and all‐cause mortality. However …

Objective To systematically review studies quantifying the associations of long term (clinic),
mid-term (home), and short term (ambulatory) variability in blood pressure, independent of …

Background: Assessment of antihypertensive treatment is normally based on the mean
value of a number of blood pressure (BP) measurements. However, it is uncertain whether …

BACKGROUND Recent reports have linked variability in visit-to-visit systolic blood pressure
(SBP) to risk of mortality and stroke, independent of the effect of mean SBP level. This study …

Background: Intraindividual blood pressure (BP) fluctuates dynamically over time. Previous
studies suggested an adverse link between greater visit-to-visit variability in systolic blood …

Objective To investigate whether baseline systolic blood pressure variability was a risk factor
for stroke, cardiovascular mortality or cardiac events during the Syst-Eur trial. Design The …

Blood pressure is a continuous, not a static, variable. Individuals exhibiting similar clinic or
home blood pressure can differ considerably with respect to their average day and nighttime …

Recent evidence indicates that long-term visit-to-visit blood pressure variability (BPV) may
be an independent cardiovascular risk predictor. The implication of this variability in …

Objectives: In hypertensive persons aged 60 years or below, visit-to-visit SBP variability is
directly associated with cardiovascular events, especially stroke. It is unclear whether such a …
