May subclinical arterial disease help to better detect and treat high-risk asymptomatic individuals?

abstract：:Thirty-two patients with mildly elevated blood pressure (BP), but without target organ damage, attended a BP measuring clinic where duplicate BP measurements were made on 12 visits. During visits 1-3, BP showed a systematic decrease which varied from patient to patient. During visits 4-12, no further systematic change...
