Increased morning blood pressure surge and coronary microvascular dysfunction in patient with early stage hypertension
2014, Journal of the American Society of HypertensionCitation Excerpt :Hypertensive patients may have symptoms and signs of myocardial ischemia related to impaired microvascular function despite angiographically normal epicardial coronary arteries.23 Arterial structural changes in hypertension are not only an adaptation to the high BP, but also the result of an early hypertension-related change in the resistance arteries, leading to an exaggerated impairment of artery structure and causing impaired organ perfusion in excess to that expected from the level of BP elevation.23–25 The vascular structural change that is disproportional to BP elevation might be related to MBPS.
From Hypertension to Heart Failure: Role of Nitric Oxide-Mediated Endothelial Dysfunction and Emerging Insights from Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography
2007, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :African Americans have a high prevalence of risk factors and have worse outcomes from CAD, despite less obstructive coronary atherosclerosis, than whites. Some investigators have therefore suggested that an underlying microvascular dysfunction may contribute to the poor cardiovascular outcome of CAD in African Americans.16 Although much of the extrapolation of the role of the microvasculature on target organ damage in hypertension has been derived from animal studies,17 there is growing evidence that African Americans have more endothelial dysfunction than do non–African Americans.2,18,19
