Nocturnal blood pressure and nighttime dipping patterns are associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular events. However, there is few research on whether riser pattern is associated with the poor prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and hypertension independent of nighttime systolic blood pressure (SBP). This prospective and observational clinical study included 568 hospitalized patients with CHD and hypertension.

Methods: A total of 1467 hospitalized patients with CHD and hypertension from January 2021 to December 2021 were included in this prospective and observational clinical study.

Article Synopsis
- This study examines the clinical characteristics and outcomes of coronary heart disease (CHD) among patients with resistant hypertension in central China, where limited research exists.
- Out of 1,467 CHD patients with hypertension, they were divided into three groups based on blood pressure control: controlled, uncontrolled, and resistant, with 21.8% classified as having resistant hypertension.
- The study found that resistant hypertension was linked to a higher risk of negative outcomes, including heart failure and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, indicating worse clinical prognosis for these patients.
