P-411: Ambulatory blood pressure, procolagen amino-terminal polypeptide (P-III-P) and hemorreologyc parameters

The aim of this work is to study the relationships between blood pressure profile, cardiac manifestations of high blood pressure and P-III-P as an index of fibrosis. We studied hypertensives without other diseases using echocardiography (M and B mode, and Doppler), ABPM using a Spacelabs 9000, and p...

Description
Summary:The aim of this work is to study the relationships between blood pressure profile, cardiac manifestations of high blood pressure and P-III-P as an index of fibrosis. We studied hypertensives without other diseases using echocardiography (M and B mode, and Doppler), ABPM using a Spacelabs 9000, and plasma levels of P-III-P. The model ANOVA, one way, was used for the statistical analysis. The level of significance was accepted for p
