OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the association of masked hypertension (MH) in treated type 2 diabetic patients without history of cardiovascular disease with carotid artery target organ damage. METHODS: Sixty-four type 2 diabetic patients treated for hypertension with office BP below 140/90 mm Hg were examined by 24-h BP monitoring and carotid sonography. MH was diagnosed if daily mean ambulatory BP was >or=135/85 mm Hg. The association of MH with carotid artery parameters was evaluated. RESULTS: The average age of patients was 62+/-5 years. Twenty-four patients had MH (37.5%). Carotid artery IMT was 0.74+/-0.08 mm in patients with MH and 0.69+/-0.06 mm without MH (p=0.03). The distensibility of common carotid artery was 0.24+/-0.07 mmHg(-1) in patients with MH and 0.29+/-0.1mm Hg(-1) without MH (p=0.14). After adjustment for age, gender, smoking, duration of diabetes, BMI and clinic blood pressure (BP) values the association of MH with carotid artery IMT was sustained. CONCLUSION: Masked hypertension in treated type 2 diabetic patients is associated with carotid artery IMT.
