Abstract
We hypothesize that obesity and nocturnal volume-dependent hypertension may be involved in the pathophysiology of non-dipping in the metabolic syndrome. This study showed that non-dipping BP was common in subjects with the metabolic syndrome. Higher 24-hour blood pressure load may add to the indices of the overall cardiovascular burden already associated with the metabolic syndrome.
