Hypertension continues to be a principal risk factor for the occurrence of cardiovascular disorders, stroke, and kidney diseases. Although more than 40 million subjects suffer from hypertension in Japan, its optimal control is achieved only a subpopulation of patients, highlighting the need for novel approaches to manage this disorder. Toward the b...

Background: The effects of uric acid (UA)-lowering therapy with xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) inhibitors on the development of cardiovascular diseases remain controversial. Based on recent findings that plasma XOR activity increased in liver disease conditions, we conducted a sub-analysis of the BEYOND-UA study to examine the differential effects o...
Article
Increased blood pressure (BP) variability and the BP surge have been reported to be associated with increased cardiovascular risk independently of BP levels and can also be a trigger of cardiovascular events. There are multiple types of BP variation: beat-to-beat variations related to breathing and the autonomic nervous system, diurnal BP variation...
Article
Blood pressure is not a static parameter, but rather undergoes continuous fluctuations over time, as a result of the interaction between environmental and behavioural factors on one side and intrinsic cardiovascular regulatory mechanisms on the other side. Increased blood pressure variability (BPV) may indicate an impaired cardiovascular regulation...

Hypertension is the most frequent modifiable risk factor associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Even in older people, strict blood pressure (BP) control has been recommended to reduce CVD event risks. However, caution should be exercised since older hypertensive patients have increased physical vulnerability due to fr...

Previous studies have reported a significant relationship between hypertension and nocturia. However, the underlying pathophysiology associated with pulse rate (PR) remains unclear. In the Japan Morning Surge-Home Blood Pressure Study, a self-administered nocturia questionnaire and evening home blood pressure (BP) and PR measurements (taken on a me...
Article
The association between nondipper pulse rate (PR) pattern was reported. However, the association between nondipper PR pattern, blood pressure variability and hypertensive target organ damage remains unclear. Ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) was conducted in 1,003 hypertensive patients enrolled in the Japan Morning Surge Home Blood Pressure (J HOP) S...
Article
It has not been fully investigated whether the response of blood pressure (BP) to activity at high altitudes differs from that at low altitudes or how temperature is involved in these differences. We hypothesized the BP response to activity during mountaineering would be increased compared to that in daily living, and conducted this study to compar...
Article
Inconsistencies between office and out-of-office blood pressure (BP) values (described as white-coat hypertension or masked hypertension) may be attributable in part to differences in the BP monitoring devices used. We studied the inconsistency of the classification of BP control (well-controlled BP vs. uncontrolled BP) among office, home, and ambu...
Article
The pathological significance of blood pressure (BP) variability in patients with heart failure (HF) has not been fully elucidated. We propose the term Actisensitivity to describe such BP reactivity in response to physical activity; this new aspect of BP variability can be evaluated using our recently developed device, a multisensor-ambulatory BP m...

The hypothesis of this study is that maximum ambulatory BP during daytime is a risk of cardiovascular events. We further hypothesize that this association may be remarkable in the population with increased arterial stiffness, because BP variability is linked to increased arterial stiffness. A total of 6294 Japan Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring...
Article
Physical activity and psychological stress during daily life contribute to ambulatory blood pressure (BP) variability.

Article
Masked hypertension is a phenomenon in which office blood pressure (BP) is in the controlled BP range while out-of-office BP measured by ambulatory BP monitoring (ABPM) and home BP monitoring (HBPM) is in the uncontrolled BP range. Out-of-office BP control status may differ if defined by different BP indexes or measured under different conditions (...
Article
Individuals with treatment-resistant hypertension (TRH) often concurrently have obesity, diabetes, or sleep apnea, conditions that confer a high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and are related to nocturnal hypertension. We therefore hypothesized that nighttime home BP may be a superior predictor of CVD events compared to daytime home BP in pat...
Article
Although day-by-day home blood pressure (BP) variability has been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, it remains unclear whether this association differs from season to season. The present study aimed to assess seasonal variation in day-by-day home BP variability (BPV) and its association with CVD risk. We analyzed the data from a na...

... It was only recently that the time-in-range (TIR) measure was proposed for the assessment of the glycemic control as a continuous glucose-monitoring (CGM)-derived metric, in addition to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), which is the gold-standard marker for predicting the relative risk of diabetes complications [10,11]. Furthermore, although the clinical implications of increased BPV are acknowledged, BPV has only research applications at present [12]. Recent studies have linked TIR with both HbA1c and diabetes complications, while CGM or flash-glucosemonitoring (FGM) devices are considered to be the best evaluation tools for this purpose compared to the self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) [13,14]. ...
