Baseline conventional echocardiographic measurements were comparable in both groups (dippers and non-dippers). Systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressures were significantly different between groups (p=0.001, p=0.003, and p=0.003, respectively). Septal left atrial TEMA was significantly different between dippers and non-dippers (p=0,014). Lateral left atrial TEMA was similar between groups. Conclusively, in normotensive patients with non-dipper pattern, there is an increased risk for end-organ damage as well as in our study. However, we need to randomized and prospective studies with large samples to determine the clinical role of non-dipper pattern in normotensive patients. Key Words: dipper hypertension, non-dipper pattern, total electromechanical activation time, left atrial functions. 33
