| Popis: | Early effects of primary hypertension on arterial structure and function in children and young people (CYP) and their determinants remain elusive. We aimed to review independent determinants of carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), carotid wall cross-sectional area (WCSA) and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) in CYP with primary hypertension.We performed a systematic review of studies reporting multivariable analysis of cfPWV, cIMT and WCSA in CYP (up to 25 years of age) with primary hypertension. Literature search was performed in PubMed database and 13, 12 and two articles including 3860 (age range 4-25 years, 50% male individuals), 2038 children (5-25 years, 55% male individuals) and 136 children (5-17 years, 85% male individuals) were selected for final analysis of cfPWV, cIMT and WCSA, respectively.Ninety and 86% of the studies reported higher cfPWV and cIMT in CYP with elevated blood pressure (BP) compared with normotensive controls. Different indices of BP were positively associated with cfPWV in 92% of studies, whereas BMI showed association in 31%. Carotid IMT associated with BP indices in 50% and with BMI in 25% of the studies. WCSA was studied longitudinally and its improvement associated with decrease in measures of central obesity.We found a disparity between the determinants of structural and functional impairment of arterial tree in CYP with primary hypertension. In contrast to cIMT and WCSA, increase of cfPWV is almost exclusively determined by BP. |
