“…Individuals with pre-hypertension are at high risk of developing clinical hypertension compared to people with lower blood pressure (BP) levels. It is related to the morbidity and mortality of cardiovascular disease (CVD) 1,2 . Identification of individuals with pre-hypertension is an important strategy to prevent the progression to hypertension and, thus, reducing the risk of CVD in the general population 3 .…”

“…However, some evidence have documented that people with prehypertension have more cardiovascular risk factors 5 and cardiovascular events compared with those with normal BP. 2,6,7 Furthermore, prehypertensive individuals are known to be at increased risk of progressing to hypertension, 8,9 the individuals with prehypertension are more likely to progress to clinical hypertension, 8 and prehypertension also is a risk factor of CVD. 10,11 The relationship between BP and the risk of CVD is continuous, the higher the BP is, the greater the chance of developing myocardial infarction, heart failure and stroke.…”

Background There is little knowledge on comparisons of cardiovascular risk factors between prehypertension and hypertension in Mongolian populations, Inner Mongolia, China. Methods and Results A total of 2,589 Mongolians aged 20 years and over were recruited as study participants. Demographic data, lifestyle factors, family history of hypertension, blood pressure measurements, physical examination and blood samples were obtained and analyzed for all individuals. Prehypertensives and hypertensives accounted for 38.39% and 37.39%, respectively, in all participants. Multivariate logistic regression using proportional odds model showed that hypertension was significantly associated with age (odds ratio was 5.79, 8.84, 30.05 and 32.28 for age 40-, 50-, 60-and 70-, respectively), family history of hypertension (7.12), alcohol drinking (2.03), overweight (4.69) and hyperlipidemia (3.49), and prehypertension significantly associated with age (3.65 for age 70-84), hyperlipidemia (1.80) in males. In females, hypertension was significantly associated with age (8.58, 14.40, 33.00, 63.67 for age 40-, 50-, 60-and 70-, respectively), family history of hypertension (5.65), overweight (3.16) and high C-reactive protein (≥10.356 mg/L), and prehypertension significantly associated with age (1.72, 2.00, 2.74 and 6.67 for age 40-, 50-, 60-and 70-, respectively) and overweight (1.68). Conclusions Prevalence of some cardiovascular risk factors and number of risk factors in hypertensives were higher than that in prehypertensives. (Circ J 2008; 72: 1666 -1673

“…10 In a study using Health and Lifestyle Surveys in the UK, researchers analyzed 2 sets of data measured 7 years apart. 11 The result of the study showed 4.3 times higher progression rate in people with high-normal BP in a 7-year follow-up period, and higher HR in people with high-normal BP among younger age group (34-44 year olds). In another study in Europe, Zhang and others 12 reconfirmed that a stepwise increase in the incidence of HTN across 3 non-hypertensive BP categories showed similar outcomes to the Framingham Heart study.…”

“…3-5 Although debates on the timing and target population for intervention exist, many studies concluded that the pre-hypertensive status would be likely to progress to HTN. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] There are several limitations associated with previous studies. First, the results were mostly derived from studies on risk prediction of CVD, and progression to HTN in Western populations.…”

Background:There are limited studies conducted in Asia to investigate the progression rate to hypertension (HTN). This study was done to estimate the progression rate of new-onset pre-HTN (PreHTN) to HTN during an 8-year follow-up period, and to compare the impact of PreHTN on progression to HTN. Methods and Results:A total of 49,228 participants, aged 30 to 54 years with new-onset PreHTN at baseline (1994)(1995)(1996) from a biennial national medical exam were enrolled and followed up every 2 years until 2004. The incidence rate recorded at each interval and the cumulative incidence rate of HTN were analyzed. Hazard ratio of high-normal and high blood pressure (BP) in men and women was calculated. The cumulative incidence rate for high-normal BP was 27.6% and 26.4% at 2-year follow-up, increased to respectively 64.1% and 55.8% in men and women at the 8-year follow-up. Compared to optimal BP, hazard ratios for men with high-normal BP across all age groups were 3-to 4-fold higher at 2-year, and 2-to 3-fold higher at 8-year follow-up. Hazard ratios for women were about 6-fold higher at 2-year and around 4-fold higher at 8-year follow-up. Conclusions:New PreHTN was a significant predisposing factor for future HTN, in young adults and the effect is more prominent in women. (Circ J 2011; 75: 135 - 140)
