Nondipping Blood Pressure Patterns Predict Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients Undergoing Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring

A nondipping blood pressure (BP) pattern is common in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, it is unclear how useful a nondipping BP pattern is in screening for OSA. In this cross-sectional study, we recruited consecutive patients with clinical indications for performing ambulatory B...
