Key result
Altered blood pressure links to anthropometric measures in Costa Rican children and adolescents.
Why the study?
The average systolic and diastolic blood pressures in young people in San José and their relation to anthropometric data were not established.
Evaluates average systolic and diastolic blood pressure relative to anthropometric measurements in youth, highlighting cardiovascular health patterns.
Objectives: To determine the average values of systolic and diastolic blood pressures in a group of young people in the province of San José and to understand their behavior in relation to their anthropometric data.
