Aims: We previously reported in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) that the circadian rhythms of blood pressure (BP) and urinary sodium excretion were both impaired into non-dipper pattern as renal function deteriorated. However, the circadian rhythm of urinary potassium excretion has not been studied in relation to renal dysfunction.
Methods: BP and urinary excretion rates of sodium (UNaV) and potassium (UKV) were evaluated for daytime and nighttime to estimate their circadian rhythms in 83 subjects with CKD.
Results: As renal function deteriorated, night/day ratios of UNaV and UKV were both increased. Night/day ratio of UKV was positively correlated with night/day ratio of UNaV (r = 0.60, p < 0.0001). Multiple regression analysis (R2 = 0.37, p < 0.0001) revealed that night/day ratio of UKV was determined independently by the night/day ratio of UNaV (r = -0.55, p < 0.0001), rather than renal function or night/day ratio of BP.
Conclusions: Circadian rhythm of natriuresis was regulated by renal function and night/day ratio of BP. On the other hand, the circadian rhythm of urinary potassium excretion was primarily determined by neither renal function nor BP, but was correlated with that of urinary sodium excretion.

Brain and muscle ARNT-Like 1 (BMAL1) is a circadian clock transcription factor that regulates physiological functions. Male adrenal-specific () KO mice displayed blunted serum corticosterone rhythms, altered blood pressure rhythm, and altered timing of eating, but there is a lack of knowledge in females. This study investigates the role of adrenal BMAL1 in renal electrolyte handling and urinary aldosterone levels in response to low salt in male and female mice.

A non-dipping blood pressure (BP) pattern, which is frequently present in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), confers high cardiovascular risk. The mechanisms connecting these two conditions remain unclear. In the present study we performed a comprehensive analysis of the blood metabolipidome that aims to provide new insights into the molecular link between OSA and the dysregulation of circadian BP rhythmicity.

Hypertension is an important morbidity factor. The prognostic consequences of the white-coat effect have been studied extensively. The repercussion on the circadian rhythm of urinary water and salt excretion in the same subgroup remain, conversely, among the open topics.

Circadian dysrhythmias occur commonly in critically ill patients reflecting variable effects of underlying illness, ICU environment, and treatments. We retrospectively analyzed the relationship between clinical outcomes and 24-h urinary 6-sulfatoxymelatonin (aMT6s) excretion profiles in 37 critically ill patients with shock and/or respiratory failure. Nonlinear regression was used to fit a 24-h cosine curve to each patient's aMT6s profile, with rhythmicity determined by the zero-amplitude test.

We characterized the polysomnography (PSG) parameters associated with alterations in the circadian blood pressure (BP) pattern aiming to identify the main contributors to explain the nondipper profile in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This is an observational prospective-multicenter study that included participants referred to the sleep unit for suspected OSA. Following a PSG study, subjects with an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥5 events/hr were included.
