Effects of at‐risk alcohol use on nighttime blood pressure, urinary catecholamines, and sleep quality in midlife adults
Our findings suggest that in midlife adults free of antihypertensive medication use, at-risk alcohol use is associated with an increase in nighttime BP, and the increase in nighttime BP may be mediated by mechanisms other than increased catecholamines and poor sleep quality.
