Hypertension in young patients after renal transplantation: ambulatory blood pressure monitoring versus casual blood pressure.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In the hypertensive heart, epicardial arteries are not enlarged, despite increased total coronary flow related to augmented cardiac workload, wall stress, and left ventricular (LV) mass. The aims of this study were to assess the impact of different hemodynamic factors and LV mass on baseline left main corona...
