“…Age, BMI, and hemoglobin level, which showed an increase in progression in both males and females, can be applied as the observed indicator of the progression, even in the normotensive period. In agreement with our results, there is considerable evidence of these factors as a possible risk factors of hypertension [16,[24][25][26][27][28].…”

“…Similar to other studies , risk of pre‐HT and HT increased with increasing Hb levels. The biological mechanisms that explain the link between high Hb level and high BP are unclear, but increased blood viscosity, activation of renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system and variation in erythropoietin secretion have all previously been suggested .…”

“…Finally, both pre-HT and HT and haemoglobin (Hb) levels affect pregnancy outcomes [17] and there are indications that both SBP and DBP may increase with increasing Hb levels. This association has been widely investigated among Caucasians and Asians but with conflicting results [20][21][22][23][24]. Few studies among Africans have all shown a positive association between increasing Hb with BP [25,26].…”

“…This was consistent with previous reports that low hemoglobin/hematocrit levels in the general population may be associated with a higher risk of ESRD, while hemoglobin-related improvements of outcomes were reduced in people with excessively higher hemoglobin levels [11,12]. This may be partly explained by the association between elevated hemoglobin levels and higher blood pressure [40][41][42] which is a risk factor for CKD progression. In the present study, hemoglobin levels correlated positively to mean atrial pressure (male: r = 0.10, p = 0.004; female: r = 0.12, p < 0.001).…”
