Abstract
Several disturbed blood pressure (BP) patterns, including disparities between office and out-of-office BP measurements (such as white-coat and masked hypertension), disturbed circadian BP variability (such as abnormal dipping patterns and nocturnal hypertension) and treatment-resistant hypertension, are common in individuals with type 1 diabetes. Consequently, office or home BP measurements alone may not reflect real BP variation and may lead to inadequate diagnosis and treatment of hypertension. The early detection of these disturbed BP patterns is especially crucial in individuals with type 1 diabetes, as these patterns may indicate future development of adverse cardiovascular and renal outcomes. In this review we will describe these disturbed BP patterns and discuss recent findings on their prevalence and outcomes. We will also address critical areas for future research to determine the true prevalence and prognosis of disturbed BP patterns, and to optimize and improve the knowledge and management of high-risk individuals with type 1 diabetes and disturbed BP patterns.
