Systolic blood pressure differences among pediatric epidemiological studies.
This report reviews the results of six large blood pressuree surveys done on pediatric populations and points out factors responsible for differences in the blood pressure norms. The studies were selected on the basis of there being recent examinations of large numbers of children. Important differences in mean systolic pressures and 95th percentile values were found among the studies, which ma...
متن کاملMeasurement of Blood Pressure Systolic Blood Pressure Differences Among Pediatric Epidemiological Studies
This report reviews the results of six large blood pressure surreys done on pediatric populations and points out factors responsible for differences in the blood pressure norms. Tbe studies were selected on the basis of there being recent examinations of large numbers of children. Important differences in mean systolic pressures and 95th percentile rallies were found among the studies, which ma...
متن کاملSystolic blood pressure and mortality.
BACKGROUND The current systolic blood-pressure threshold for hypertension treatment is 140 mm Hg for all adults. WHO and the International Society of Hypertension have proposed that normal pressure be lower than 130 mm Hg, with an optimum pressure of less than 120 mm Hg. These recommendations are based largely on the assumption that cardiovascular and overall mortality depend in a strictly incr...
متن کاملSystolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) and Target Systolic Blood Pressure in Future Hypertension Guidelines.
The Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP, mm Hg) Intervention Trial (SPRINT) showed that targeting SBP <120 mm Hg (intensive treatment, mean SBP: 121.5 mm Hg) versus <140 (standard treatment, mean SBP: 134.6 mm Hg) reduced cardiovascular events 25%. SPRINT has 2 implicit assumptions that could impact future US hypertension guidelines: (1) standard therapy controlled SBP similarly to that in adults with...
متن کاملEpidemiological investigation into the prevalence of abnormal inter-arm blood pressure differences among different ethnicities in Xinjiang, China
OBJECTIVES The prevalence of and risk factors for IAD among different ethnicity groups was unknown. Our aim was to investigate the prevalence of and risk factors for IAD among Han, Uygur and Kazakh ethnicities in Xinjiang. China. METHODS In total, 14,618 adult participants (7,799 males and 6,819 females) were recruited from the Cardiovascular Risk Survey. A 4-stage stratified cluster random s...
