BackgroundHigh pulsatile pressure and flow in the arteries causes microvascular damage, and hence increased cardio-, and cerebrovascular complications. With advanced stages of hypertensive disease, an exaggerated pulsatile retinal capillary flow (RCF) has been shown, but data about interventional effect are missing.MethodsFifty-one patients with true treatment-resistant hypertension (TRH) underwent renal denervation (RDN) using the Symplicity Flex™ catheter and were followed for 12 months. RCF was assessed non-invasively using Scanning laser Doppler flowmetry (SLDF) before, 6 (6 M), and 12 (12 M) months after RDN. RCF was measured in systole and diastole and pulsed RCF (difference of RCF in systole minus diastole) was calculated. In addition, flicker light-induced vasodilation (representing vasodilatory capacity) was assessed.ResultsSystolic and diastolic office blood pressure (BP) as well as 24-h ABPM decreased significantly 6 M and 12 M after RDN, compared to baseline values (allp< 0.001). There was a significant reduction of pulsed RCF 6 M (231 ± 81 versus 208 ± 68 AU,p= 0.046) and 12 M (194 ± 72 AU,p= 0.001) after RDN, whereas the mean RCF was unchanged. Moreover, there was a significant increase of flicker light-induced vasodilation after RDN (p= 0.043).ConclusionIn hypertensive patients with TRH, we observed a decrease of pulsed RCF 6 M and 12 M after RDN and an increase of vasodilatory capacity, in parallel to decreases in BP and heart rate. The reduction of pulsed RCF after RDN implies a decrease of shear stress on the vascular wall by the pulsed blood flow. This and the increment of vasodilatory capacity suggest an improvement of retinal (and potentially cerebral) microcirculation.
