Does prehypertension represent an increased risk for incident hypertension and adverse cardiovascular outcome?
Literature is accumulating that the presence of prehypertension (pre-HTN; defined as a blood pressure [BP] of 120 to 139 mm Hg systolic and/or 80 to 90 mm Hg diastolic) is associated with increased long-term risk. It remains controversial, however, as to whether prehypertensive BP alone or its association with its common risk factor accompaniments is important in determining ultimate risk. In t...
متن کاملProgression from prehypertension to hypertension and risk of cardiovascular disease
BACKGROUND Subjects with prehypertension (pre-HT; 120/80 to 139/89 mm Hg) have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD); however, whether the risk of pre-HT can be seen at the pre-HT status or only after progression to a hypertensive (HT; ≥140/90 mm Hg) state during the follow-up period is unknown. METHODS The Jichi Medical Cohort study enrolled 12,490 subjects recruited from a Japan...
متن کاملPrehypertension patient awareness and associated cardiovascular risk factors in an urban population in Iran
Background: This study was to estimate the frequency of prehypertension and to characterize patient awareness and associated cardiovascular risk factors in an urban population in Iran. Methods: During a hypertensive awareness program, a cross-sectional study was conducted on 2036 people. All participants completed a questionnaire about their demographic and anthropometric indices and were as...
متن کاملCardiovascular Risk Factors for Incident Hypertension in the Prehypertensive Population
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of changes in cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors on progression from prehypertension (PreHTN) to hypertension (HTN) using an 8-yr prospective Korean Cancer Prevention Study (KCPS) by the National Health Insurance Corporation (NHIC) in Korea. METHODS A total of 16,229 subjects, aged 30 to 54, with new onset preHTN at baselin...
متن کاملCardiovascular and Metabolic Predictors of Progression of Prehypertension Into Hypertension
Prehypertension (defined by the Seventh Report of the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure) frequently evolves to hypertension (HTN) and increases cardiovascular risk. It is unclear whether metabolic and/or cardiac characteristics favor development of HTN in prehypertensive subjects. We evaluated baseline anthropometric, laboratory,...
