Evaluation of body mass index in patients with dipper and non-dipper hypertension
These findings support the hypothesis that obesity may impair nocturnal blood pressure regulation and suggest that BMI could serve as a simple marker of non-dipping status. This indicates a potential association between increased BMI and a non-dipping blood pressure profile. Due to its retrospective design, this study cannot establish causality.
