Highlights prehypertension burden in suburban China; leaves open whether intervention alters clustered risks.
Cross-Sectional (n=19,003)
Prehypertension is highly prevalent among adults in suburban Beijing and is strongly associated with the clustering of other modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, highlighting the need for early lifestyle interventions.
Zhang et al. (2011) conducted a cross-sectional in Prehypertension and cardiovascular risk factors (n=19,003). Prehypertension vs. Normotension was evaluated on Age-standardized prevalence of prehypertension. Prehypertension affected 35.7% of adults in suburban Beijing and was associated with a significantly higher prevalence of clustered cardiovascular risk factors compared to normotension.
