Abstract: This was a retrospective study. This study investigated the occurrence of a composite endpoints (cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, end-stage renal disease, and death) in 153 patients (aged ≥ 18 years) with a diagnosis of in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Based on morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) defined as ≥35 mm Hg, patients were divided into two groups: with MBPS (n = 50) and without MBPS (n = 103). All patients were followed up for at least 1 year. Baseline demographic, laboratory and follow-up data were collected. The clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared. The relationships between MBPS and endpoint events were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model. In total, 153 patients (mean age 41.8 years; 56.86% males) were included in this study. During the follow-up period (mean 4.3 years), 34 endpoint events occurred. After adjustment for the covariates, the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, end-stage renal disease and death remained significantly higher in patients with MBPS (hazard ratio [HR] and 95% confidence interval [CI] 3.124 [1.096-9.130]]) Among the other variables, systolic blood pressure, and night-time and daytime pulse pressures remained significantly associated with outcome in patients of CKD (1.789 [1.205-2.654], 1.710 [1.200-2.437], and 1.318 [1.096-1.586], respectively]. In conclusions, MBPS was identified as an independent prognostic factor for composite endpoint events (cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, end-stage renal disease and death) patients with chronic kidney disease patients.
