Abstract
This review deals with variability of arterial pressure (VAP) as an adverse factor contributing to the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases and renal pathology. VAP has recently attracted much attention in connection with results of ASCOT (Anglo-Scandinavian Cardiac Outcomes Trial) showing that VAP is a risk factor of stroke and other complications of arterial hypertension (AH).The relationship between VAP and renal function remains unexplored and is considered to be a vicious circle in which kidneys are both a cause of AH and its target organs. Evidently, elucidation of the relationship between enhanced VAP and renal function is of primary importance.
