AIM:The aim of this study was to determine the correlation of changes in left ventricular mass, with changes in office blood pressure (BP) and in 24-h ambulatory (ABP), with the trough-to-peak (T/P) ratio and with the smoothness index (SI), as induced by antihypertensive treatment with lercanidipine. METHODS:This was done through an observational, prospective, open, non-comparative, single centre, pilot study in patients naïve to antihypertensive therapy. All patients were treated with lercanidipine 10-20 mg/day plus hydrochlorothiazide 12.5-25 mg/day if treated BP exceeded an arbitrarily defined safety level (>160/100 mmHg) after 1 month on monotherapy. ABP monitoring was repeated after 1 month and after 6 months. Two-dimensional mode echocardiography was performed twice, at the beginning and end of the study. Seventeen patients were included in the final analysis (aged 45.8 +/- 10.7 years, 35% women). RESULTS:Treatment-induced changes in left ventricular mass index (LVMI) were not found to correlate neither with changes in office BP, with changes in ABP values, nor with T/P. However, a significant correlation was found between LVMI changes and SI at 6 months (r=0.50, P=0.039). CONCLUSION:The results of this study suggest that the SI has a higher predictive value, compared to other BP-derived parameters, for treatment-induced LVMI changes, in hypertensive patients treated with lercanidipine.

目的:本研究的目的是确定左心室质量变化与办公室血压(BP)和24小时非卧床(ABP)变化与波峰(T / P)的相关性乐卡地平抗高血压治疗所致的比例和平滑度指数(SI)。
方法:这是通过一项观察性,前瞻性,开放性,非对照性,单中心,前瞻性研究对未接受降压治疗的患者进行的。如果在单药治疗1个月后,经治疗的BP超过任意定义的安全水平(> 160/100 mmHg),则所有患者均接受10-20 mg /天的乐卡地平加12.5-25 mg /天的氢氯噻嗪治疗。 1个月后和6个月后重复进行ABP监测。在研究开始和结束时,二维模式超声心动图检查进行了两次。最终分析包括17名患者(年龄45.8 / 10.7岁,女性35%)。
结果:未发现治疗引起的左心室质量指数(LVMI)的变化与办公室血压的变化,ABP值的变化或T / P均无关。然而,发现6个月时LVMI的变化与SI之间存在显着相关性(r = 0.50,P = 0.039)。
结论:本研究结果表明,与其他BP衍生参数相比,SI对接受lercanidipine治疗的高血压患者因治疗引起的LVMI变化具有更高的预测价值。
