White-coat hypertension, defined as associated with <140 diastolic <90 Hg, present in 126 patients, remainder had hypertension. A subgroup patients without complications follow-up echocardiography carotid ultrasound. hypertensives younger (44±12 52±10 years, respectively; P<0.001) significantly lower incidence (1.32 versus...
