This study investigated the prevalence of white-coat hypertension (WCH) among individuals with office isolated systolic hypertension (ISH), isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH), and systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDH). We evaluated 9122 individuals [57.0 ± 14.

This web-based database study compared BP phenotypes in individuals using (n = 51,194; 6.05% with DM) and not using (n = 55,320; 0.

This study aimed at investigating the accuracy of various cutoffs based on the differences (ΔBP) between office BP (OBP) and 24h-ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) to identify white-coat (WCH) and masked (MH) hypertension, which are phenotypes coupled with adverse prognosis. This cross-sectional study included 11,350 [Derivation cohort; 45% men, mean age = 55.
