Day-by-day variability in self-measured blood pressure at home

Abstract

Day-by-day variability in HBP increased with increasing BP level. This was significantly associated with carotid artery atherosclerosis and endothelial function in normotensive and mild-moderate hypertensive individuals. Day-by-day variability in HBP may serve as an important prognostic factor for atherosclerosis and endothelial dysfunction.
