Why the study?
Does resolution of childhood elevated blood pressure by adulthood reduce the risk of carotid atherosclerosis compared to persistently elevated blood pressure?
Does resolution of childhood elevated blood pressure by adulthood reduce the risk of carotid atherosclerosis compared to persistently elevated blood pressure?
Resolution of elevated blood pressure from childhood to adulthood mitigates the risk of developing carotid atherosclerosis.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May reduce carotid atherosclerosis risk if childhood BP elevation resolves; extends cohort data on BP trajectories but leaves causal effects open.
Juhola et al. (2013) studied this question.
