This study aims to investigate the trends in prevalence, awareness, treatment and control of hypertension among rural residents aged 35–74 years in northern China during the country’s rapid economic development from 1991 to 2011. Two surveys, conducted in 1991and 2011, included 2196 and 1939 participants aged 35–74 years from same villages in Ji County, Tianjin of China, respectively. The prevalence of hypertension, adjusted by age and gender using the world standard population in 2000, increased 30% (39.9% vs 51.7%) between 1991 and 2011. Two surveys, conducted in 1991and 2011, included 2196 and 1939 participants aged 35–74 years from same villages in Ji County, Tianjin of China, respectively. The prevalence of hypertension, adjusted by age and gender using the world standard population in 2000, increased 30% (39.9% vs 51.7%) between 1991 and 2011. The increase was greatest (68%) in women aged 35–44 years.
Visit-to-visit systolic blood pressure variability and outcomes in hemodialysis

Visit-to-visit blood pressure variability (VTV-BPV) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular events and death in the general population. We sought to determine the association of VTV-BPV with outcomes in patients on hemodialysis, using data from a National Institutes of Health-sponsored randomized trial (the HEMO study). We used the coefficient of variation (CV) and the average real variability in systolic blood pressure (SBP) as metrics of VTV-BPV. In all, 1844 out of 1846 randomized subjects had at least three visits with SBP measurements and were included in the analysis. Median follow-up was 2.5 years (interquartile range 1.3 –4.3 years), during which time there were 869 deaths from any cause and 408 (adjudicated) cardiovascular deaths.

Morbilidad oculta de hipertensión arterial en adolescentes
Por: Dr. Oneida Terazón Miclín. Medisan, vol 17, número: 12, 1-31 dic. 2013.
Se llevó a cabo una investigación descriptiva y transversal de 85 alumnos del séptimo grado (en las edades de 10-15 años) de la Escuela Secundaria Básica “Roberto Rodríguez” de Santiago de Cuba, durante el 2010, para determinar la morbilidad oculta de hipertensión arterial en estos adolescentes. Del total de alumnos estudiados, se obtuvo que 5,9 % presentaba hipertensión arterial y se mantenían asintomáticos en esos momentos; además, existían factores de riesgo asociados a la enfermedad, como el antecedente familiar de primera línea de padecer la entidad clínica, los hábitos tóxicos, la dieta inadecuada y la obesidad. Los adolescentes fueron remitidos a consulta de pediatría para que se les realizara el estudio pertinente.
