The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of high values of blood pressure on circulating CXCL10. CXCL10 levels (median; interquartile range (IQR)) were significantly higher in patients with high systolic and diastolic blood pressure (n = 48; 159 (125-185) pg ml(-1)) than in controls (n = 127; 98 (71-115) pg ml(-1)) or in patients with only systolic hypertension (n = 79; 125 (84-187) pg ml(-1)) (P<0.0001); in multiple linear regression models using CXCL10 as dependent variable, and age and systolic or diastolic blood pressure as covariates, only systolic or diastolic blood pressures were significantly (P<0.0001) related to CXCL10 levels. The results of this study demonstrate increased serum CXCL10 levels in patients with hypertension.

Abstract

The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of high values of blood pressure on circulating CXCL10. CXCL10 levels (median; interquartile range (IQR)) were significantly higher in patients with high systolic and diastolic blood pressure (n = 48; 159 (125-185) pg ml(-1)) than in controls (n = 127; 98 (71-115) pg ml(-1)) or in patients with only systolic hypertension (n = 79; 125 (84-187) pg ml(-1)) (P<0.0001); in multiple linear regression models using CXCL10 as dependent variable, and age and systolic or diastolic blood pressure as covariates, only systolic or diastolic blood pressures were significantly (P<0.0001) related to CXCL10 levels. The results of this study demonstrate increased serum CXCL10 levels in patients with hypertension.
