The relationship between the PWV and circadian variation of blood pressure (BP) (dipper or nondipper) were sought, and also the LV diastolic function between dipper and nondipper patients compared. Subjects and Methods:44 hypertensive subjects, who had never been treated, were enrolled (mean age: 48±12 yrs, men: 29). The following procedures were undertaken. 1) 24 hour ambulatory BP monitoring; 2) echocardiography for LV geometry, LV mass index (LVMI), LV systolic and diastolic functions, including tissue Doppler and aortic PWV. The patients were divided into two groups with respect to their ambulatory BP profiles, i.e., dipper and nondipper. The PWV, LV geometry and diastolic functions were compared between dipper and nondipper patients, and the relationship between the PWV and diastolic function analyzed in all patients. Results:Twenty (45%) were nondipper patients. There were no significant differences in the LV geometry, LVMI and PWV between dipper and nondipper patients (PWV; 8.8±3.1 vs. 8.6±3.3 m/sec, p>0.05). In all patients, the PWV was related to the deceleration time (r=0.34, p=0.03) and the mitral E/A (r=-0.31, p=0.02) and mitral Em/Am ratios obtained by the tissue Doppler echocardiography (r=-0.31, p=0.03). The proportion with diastolic dysfunction was higher in the nondipper than the dipper patients (21 vs. 50%, p<0.01). There was a significant relation between the PWV and Em (r=-0.45, p=0.047) in the nondipper, but not in the dipper. Conclusion:Prolonged exposure to high BP (nondipper) was not related with increased aortic stiffness in never treated hypertensive patients. The PWV was closely related with LV diastolic dysfunction in nondipper patients.

Dipper와 nondipper 간에맥파전도속도의차이는 independent sample t-test를이용하여검증하였으며, 맥파전도속도와좌심실확장기능을나타내는각각의표지자와의관계는상관분석 (correlation analysis) 과회귀분석 (regression analysis) 을시행하였다. 각군에서좌심실확장기능부전환자의발생빈도의차이는 chisquare test 로검증하였다. 결과 임상적특성및양군간좌심실확장기능의비교대상환자는총 44 명으로이중 dipper가 24명 (54.5%) 이었으며나이 (dipper:45.3±9.2 yrs, nondipper: 48.5±4.9 yrs, p>0.05) 와성별 (dipper; 남 :15명 (62%);nondipper; 남 :14명(70%), p>0.05) 은양군간유의한차이가없었다. Dipper와 nondipper 사이에 24시 간평균수축기혈압 (139.5±12.7 mmhg vs 135.1± 15.2 mmhg, p>0.05) 과주간수축기혈압역시양군간유의한차이는없었지만, 확장기혈압은 dipper에서 nondipper 군보다유의하게상승되어있었다 (99.0±8.6 mmhg vs 91.5±12.9 mmhg, p=0.03). 심장초음파상의좌심실질량지수 (LVMI), 좌심실의확장기및수축기내경, 좌심방의내경등도양군간특별한차이가없었으며, 간헐파형도플러로측정한좌심실의확장기능지표역시 DT(dipper;198.3±21.3 msec vs nondipper;218±0.3 msec, p=0.03) 를제외하고는양군간유의한차이를보이지않았다 (Table 1, 2). 하지만 dipper 와 nondipper에서좌심실확장기기능 (diastolic function) 에따라대상환자를정상이완기능 (normal diastolic filling pattern), abnormal relaxation, pseudonormal filling pattern 11) 으로나누었을때대상환자수는 dipper Table 1.

6 양상이혈관에미치는영향은알려져있지않다. 이에저자등은일중혈압의변동양상에따른맥파전도속도의차이를규명하고자하였는데본연구의결과는예상과달리양군간에맥파전도속도가유의한차이를보이지않았다. 이러한결과가나온원인으로몇가지가능성을고려할수있다. 첫째, 연구대상환자군의고혈압유병기간이짧아혈압의일중변동이아직대동맥의구조적혹은기능적이상을발현시킬만큼영향을미치지않았거나둘째, 인위적으로야간의혈압이주간에비해 10% 이상감소하는것을기준으로하여나눈 dipper 와 nondipper 의분류가심장에미치는영향과는달리환자의맥파전도속도로대변되는대동맥경직도에영향을미칠만큼의미있는분류가아닐경우의가능성, 셋째로 24 시간혈압의측정자체의재현성 (reproducibility) 이떨어져 dipper와 nondipper의명확한구분이힘들경우를생각할수있겠다. 두번째가능성의경우 24시간활동혈압측정이일상및수면중에보다많은혈압측정의기회를제공하여단순한혈압측정보다고혈압환자의진단및예후의판정에유용하다는 7)15) 것은잘알려져있지만 nondipper와목표장기의손상정도와의관계에대한상반된보고들 16)17) 이있으며또한좌심실비대나경동맥의동맥경화정도의차이가주간과야간의혈압차이에기인한다기보다는전체적인혈압정도와관계있다는보고 18) 도있어본연구에서처럼 nondipper와 dipper 간대동맥경직도를포함한목표장기 (target organ) 의손상정도와의차이는불분명한점이있다. 24시간혈압측정의재현성에대해서는 Cuspidi 등 19) 이 4주간격으로시행한 24시간활동혈압검사상처음에 dipper로분류된환자중 20.4% 가재검결과 nondipper로분류되었다고보고한바있다. 하지만지속적인 nondipper로분류된환자들은지속적인 dipper로분류된환자들에비해좌심실의구조적변화가뚜렷하여혈압이 non-dipping 양상을보일경우심혈관질환의위험예측에도움이될수있다고하였다. 본연구의대상환자가많지않아이러한변화가본연구에서도나타났다고가정한다면연구결과에영향을미쳤을가능성이있을것으로사료된다. 본연구결과는고혈압의유병기간이짧지만치료받지않은고혈압환자에서야간의혈압강하여부는좌심실질량지수 (left ventricular mass index) 를비롯한좌심실모양 (left ventricular geometry) 이나대동맥경 1104 직도와특별한상관관계가없는것으로나타났다. 하지만본연구의대상환자들이고혈압의유병기간이비교적짧고다른연구들에서 Balci 등 20) 에따르면 nondipper 에서 dipper 에비해좌심실의 eccentric hypertrophy 가증가되어있고 Glen 등 21) 은백의고혈압환자의일부에서조기혈압조절을필요로하는심혈관질환이발생하였다고보고한바있으며반대로혈액투석중인고혈압환자에서 nondipper와 dipper 간좌심실비대의특별한차이는나타나지않았다는보고도있어 18) 본연구의결과만으로 dipper에서표적장기의손상이 nondipper 와차이가없을것이라는결론은성급한것으로사료된다. 본연구의전체대상 (n=44) 에서맥파전도속도는좌심실의확장기기능과밀접한관계를나타냈는데맥파전도속도가증가될수록확장기기능이감소하는음의상관관계 (negative correlation) 를보여주었다 (Fig. 3). 이는최근에 Eren 등 12) 의고혈압환자와당뇨환자를대상으로한연구결과에서대동맥의긴장도 (aortic strain) 가 IVRT(isovolumic relaxation time) 나승모판막이완기혈류속도비 (E/A ratio), DT(deceleration time) 등의좌심실이완기기능지표와밀접한관계를가진다는보고와유사하다. 이들은이러한현상이아마도고혈압자체가심장과혈관에동시에영향을미쳐나타나는현상일뿐맥파전도속도와좌심실의확장기기능은직접적인관계가없거나혹은다른하나의가능성으로맥파전도속도가증가되면서좌심실의후부하 (afterload) 를증가시켜좌심실의수축기말압력을증가시키는효과 22)23) 를가져오게되고이러한좌심실의수축기말압력을감소시키려는기전이좌심실의구조적변화를초래해결과적으로좌심실의확장기기능장애를유발하는것으로설명하였다. Eren 등 12) 의연구와본연구의차이는본연구에서는대상이항고혈압제를투여받은적이없으며비교적고혈압의유병기간이짧은초기고혈압환자를대상으로한점이며, 본연구에서고혈압의초기에맥파전도속도에영향을미칠수있는약물의효과를배제한상황에서도맥파전도속도가좌심실의확장기기능과밀접한관계가있었다. 본연구에서다른하나의흥미로운점은 dipper 군과 nondipper 군으로나누어맥파전도속도와좌심실확장기기능과의관계를살펴보았을때 dipper 군에서는맥파전도속도와좌심실확장기기능사이에특별한관계가없었던반면, nondipper 군에서는 Korean Circulation J 2004;34(11):

7 맥파전도속도와조직도플러로측정한승모판륜의초기이완기속도가맥파전도속도와유의한음의상관관계를지니고있고 (r=-0.45, p<0.05), E/Em ratio는특별한관계가없었다는점이다. Em 은좌심실확장기기능의 active process 를대변하는 tau(time constant of isovolumic relaxation) 와밀접한양의상관관계가있으며, E/ Em은좌심실확장기압을예측하는지표이다. 24)25) 따라서 dipper와같은지속적혈압상승조건에서맥파전도속도의상승, 즉대동맥경직도의증가가좌심실의후부하를증가시킴으로서좌심실의에너지대사에먼저문제를초래하고결과적으로좌심실의초기이완기의 active process 에기능부전을가져올가능성이높다. 결론적으로항고혈압제를투여받은경력이없는고혈압환자에서대동맥파전도속도는혈압의야간감소여부와유의한관계는없었지만좌심실의확장기기능부전과밀접한상관관계를나타내었으며특히 dipper 에서좌심실이완기초기의 active process 의기능부전양상과관계가깊다. 요약 배경및목적 : 고혈압환자중 nondipper에서목표장기의손상이증가하고심혈관계질환발생의위험성이높은것으로알려져있다. 맥파전도속도는지속적으로고혈압에노출되는 nondipper 에서 dipper 보다증가되어있을것으로추측되나아직이에대한연구는보고된바없으며, 맥파전도속도와좌심실확장기기능과의상관관계역시잘알려져있지않다. 이에저자등은치료전고혈압환자에서일중혈압의변화양상이맥파전도속도에미치는영향과맥파전도속도가좌심실확장기기능에미치는영향을평가하고자하였다. 방법 : 고혈압으로진단받았으나다른질환의증거가없으며항고혈압제를복용한적이없는 44 명의환자 ( 평균고혈압유병기간 :7.9±4.7월, 나이 :48±12 세, 남자 :29) 를대상으로하였다. 대상환자는 24시간활동혈압검사를시행하여 dipper(n=24) 와 nondipper(n=20) 로구분하였으며, 심장초음파검사로좌심실질량지수 (left ventricular mass index), 수축기및확장기좌심실내경, 좌심실두께등을측정하였다. 맥파전도속도는하행대동맥 과복부대동맥에서 foot-to-foot method 를이용하여측정하였고좌심실의확장기기능은확장기승모판혈류양상 (E wave, A wave, E/A ratio) 및 DT(deceleration time), IVRT(isovolumic relaxation time), 조직도플러 (tissue dopper) 를이용해승모판륜에서의초기이완기속도 (Em) 와후기이완기속도 (Am) 등을측정하였다. 결과 : Dipper 및 nondipper 간고혈압유병기간, 나이, 심장초음파시행당시의혈압, 맥박수등은유의한차이가없었다. 양군간좌심실질량이나맥파전도속도역시유의한차이를보이지않았다 ( 맥파전도속도 dipper;8.8± 3.1 m/sec vs nondipper;8.6±3.3 m/sec, p>0.05). 하지만전체에서맥파전도속도는 DT(r=0.34, p=0.03), mitral E/A ratio(r=-0.31, p=0.02), 그리고조직도플러심장초음파로측정한 mitral Em/Am ratio(r=-0.31, p=0.03) 등과유의한상관관계를보였다. Nondipper 군에서 dipper 군에비해좌심실확장기기능부전환자가유의하게많았으며 (21% vs 50%, p<0.01) 맥파전도속도는 nondipper 군에서조직도플러상 mitral Em (r=-0.45, p=0.047) 과유의한상관관계를보였다. 결론 : 치료전고혈압환자에서일중혈압의변화정도는맥파전도속도로대변되는대동맥경직도에유의한영향을미치지는않으나 nondipper에서대동맥경직도와좌심실확장기기능부전과유의한관련이있었다. 중심단어 : 고혈압 ; 심기능검사.
