Sex differences in factors affecting the daily variation of blood pressure

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: Assessing the diurnal variation of blood pressure

“…These interactions were such that the pattime o F day and place of measurement also tern of the mood effects on pressure while elsewhere (not at home or work) were differdiastolic pressure, the interactive effects of occupation and mood also contributed to variation in a similar pattern to systolic pressure. These findings are consistent with other studies examining the singular effects of mood and activity on daily blood pressure variability (James et al, , 1988bVan Egeren and Madarasmi, 1988;Clark et al, 1987); however, the present study shows that these effects are additive. Furthermore, the results suggests that daily pressure variation is affected by occupational classification, which may be an indicator of social class in this study PO ulation.…”

Gender Differences in the Association Between Marital Status and Hypertension in Ghana

“…In line with this, it is interesting that domestic stresses have been shown to have a greater effect on blood pressure in women than in men in ambulatory blood pressure studies (James et al, 1988), while catecholamine levels (best described as stress hormones) which correlate positively with blood pressure and pulse rate remain high in working married women even after leaving worksuggesting that home stress may continue to affect sympathetic activation at home and taking us closer to a pathophysiological mechanism (James et al, 1988;Frankenhaueser et al, 1989;Luecken et al, 1997).…”

Smoking and moods in adolescents with depressive and aggressive dispositions: Evidence from surveys and electronic diaries.

“…By way of comparison with adult mood profiles, a recent diary study of women yielded substantially lower rates of anxiety and anger than those reported here, with ratings above none occurring in only 22.3% and 6.2% of diary records, respectively (Shapiro, Jamner, Goldstein, & Delfino, in press). In another study of adults, James, Yee, Harshfield, and Pickering (1988) found that anxiety and anger were reported only 11% and 2% of the time, respectively.…”
