背景:
- 心血管疾患 (CVD) のリスクを減らすには,血圧 (BP) の制御が不可欠です.
- 高血圧は,米国の成人のかなりの部分に影響します.
研究 の 目的:
- 1999~2000年から2017~2018年の高血圧の米国成人の血圧管理の動向を分析する.
- 血圧管理に伴う 人口統計と医療関連の要因を特定する.
主な方法:
- 国家保健栄養調査 (NHANES) データの連続的横断分析.
- 10回の調査サイクル (1999年−2018年) で,高血圧の米国人18,262人を対象に実施した.
- 静脈動脈圧 < 140 mm Hg と静脈動脈動脈圧 < 90 mm Hg と定義される
主要な成果:
- 制御された高血圧の成人の割合は1999-2000年の31.8%から2007-2008年の48.5%に増加し,2017-2018年には43.7%に減少した.
- 非ヒスパニックの白人成人と比較して,非ヒスパニックの黒人成人では血圧がコントロールされる可能性が低い.

Hypertension I: Introduction
528
Hypertension is a widespread, long-term medical condition where blood pressure in the arteries remains elevated. It is characterized by systolic blood pressure readings of 130 mm Hg or above or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) readings of 80 mm Hg or higher. Unmanaged hypertension poses significant health risks, making the distinction between primary (or essential) hypertension and secondary hypertension crucial, as their management and implications vary.Primary HypertensionPrimary hypertension,...

Factors affecting Blood pressure

Several physiological and lifestyle factors influence blood pressure (BP). Understanding these factors is crucial as they are significant in patient education and blood pressure management.

Hypertension and Regulation of Blood Pressure
3.5K
Hypertension, the most common cardiovascular disease, is diagnosed through repeated measurements of elevated blood pressure. Its risks, including damage to the kidney, heart, and brain, are directly proportional to blood pressure levels. Starting from 115/75 mm Hg, the risk of cardiovascular disease doubles with each increment of 20/10 mm Hg. The diagnosis relies on blood pressure measurements, not on patient symptoms, as hypertension is often asymptomatic until end-organ damage is imminent or...

Blood Pressure

Blood pressure (BP) is the pressure or force of blood exerted on the artery's walls as it circulates through the body. It is essential for maintaining blood flow throughout the body.
The average BP in an adult is typically around 120/80 mmHg (millimeters of mercury). In this measurement, the numerator (120) indicates the systolic pressure, which is the pressure in the arteries during the contraction of the heart's ventricles as blood is expelled. The denominator (80) represents the...

Blood Pressure

The movement of blood in a human body, commonly referred to as blood flow, is determined by the volume of blood that traverses a certain section of the bodily system per unit time. It is the rhythmic contraction of the heart's ventricles that primarily instigates this movement. As the ventricles contract, blood is forced into the prominent arteries, which then flow from areas of greater pressure to lower pressure areas. This movement continues into smaller arteries and arterioles and...

Alterations in Blood Pressure

Alterations in blood pressure, such as hypertension (high blood pressure) and hypotension (low blood pressure), significantly affect human health. Understanding these conditions' classifications, causes, and symptoms is essential for effective management and treatment.
Hypertension (High blood pressure)
Hypertension occurs when blood pressure readings consistently exceed the normal range. It is diagnosed when systolic blood pressure (the top number, indicating pressure while the heart...
