Ambulatory hypertension (AH), masked hypertension (MH), and white coat hypertension (WCH) as per the 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (ABP), day-night ABP and American Heart Association (AHA) thresholds. The 24-h ABP threshold diagnosed fewer AH (27% vs. 44%; P < 0.001), MH (6% vs. 14%; P < 0.001), and more WCH (33% vs. 25%; P < 0.001) than day-night ABP thresholds. The 24-h ABP and AHA thresholds diagnosed AH (27% vs. 26%; P = 0.73), MH (6% vs. 6%; P > 0.999), and WCH (33% vs. 34%; P = 0.75) quite similarly, whereas the day-night ABP and AHA thresholds diagnosed AH (44% vs. 26%; P < 0.001), MH (14% vs. 6%; P < 0.001), and WCH (25% vs. 34%; P < 0.001) differently
