Associations of Proteinuria, Fluid Volume Imbalance, and Body Mass Index with Circadian Ambulatory Blood Pressure in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients

Abstract

Hypertension is dependent on proteinuria and fluid volume imbalance. The TBWBIA/TBWWatson ratio can serve as an indicator of fluid volume-dependent hypertension. BMI is affected by TBW, in which case BMI can become less involved with 24-h ABP.
