Popis: | Background: Identification of target organ damage and/or risk-enhancing factors help treatment decisions in hypertensive and hyperlipidaemic patients who reside in borderline to an intermediate risk category based on 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk estimates. Aim: In the present study, we aimed to investigate the comparative efficacy of certain hypertension-mediated organ damage markers (HMOD) for the prediction of 10-year ASCVD risk ≥10%, in patients with primary hypertension without established CVD. Methods: One-hundred thirty-seven asymptomatic hypertensive patients ≥40 years of age were enrolled in the present study. Ten-year ASCVD risks were estimated by Pooled Cohort Equations. The following HMOD markers; pulse pressure (PP), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), ankle-brachial index (ABI), cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were evaluated with respect to efficacy for predicting ≥10% ASCVD risk with ROC analysis. Results: CAVI gave the greatest Area Under Curve (AUC = 0.736, p |
