Popis: | Background Blood pressure visit-to-visit variability is a novel risk factor for deleterious long-term cardiac and renal outcomes in the general population. We hypothesized that patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have greater blood pressure visit-to-visit variability than control subjects and that blood pressure visit-to-visit variability is associated with a higher comorbidity burden. Methods We studied 899 patients with SLE and 4172 matched controls using de-identified electronic health records from an academic medical center. We compared blood pressure visit-to-visit variability measures in patients with SLE and control subjects and examined the association between blood pressure visit-to-visit variability and patients’ characteristics. Results Patients with SLE had higher systolic blood pressure visit-to-visit variability 9.7% (7.8–11.8%) than the control group 9.2% (7.4–11.2%), P Conclusion Patients with SLE had higher blood pressure visit-to-visit variability than controls, and this increased blood pressure visit-to-visit variability was associated with greater Charlson comorbidity scores, several clinical characteristics and immunosuppressant medications. In particular, hydroxychloroquine prescription was associated with lower blood pressure visit-to-visit variability. |
