This study evaluated 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who had a normal casual blood pressure (CBP) of less than 140/90 mmHg. A total of 350 patients with CKD (Stages 1-5) and a normal CBP were included, and 24-hour ABPs were monitored. Of these patients, 147 patients (42.0%) exhibited increased mean ABP; 69 patients (19.7%) exhibited masked hypertension; 199 patients (56.9%) exhibited an abnormal BP mode (circadian rhythm disappearing); and 204 patients (58.3%) exhibited increased BP load. The 24-hour ABP and mean day and night BPs in patients with higher CBP were significantly higher than those in patients with normal CBP and healthy controls (P<0.01). Results indicate that abnormal BPs exist in patients with CKD who exhibit normal CBPs.
