Associations between Home, Office, and Central Blood Pressure and Microcirculatory Dysfunction in a Middle-Aged Population
Home BP, which better predicts cardiovascular disease than office BP, was inversely associated with OxyP. This correlation remained in subgroup analyses of women but not men, suggesting possible sex-dependent microcirculatory dysfunction or that masked hypertension could be a more important cardiovascular risk marker in women, despite its higher prevalence in men.
