Abstract
We examined the relationship between systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) and the incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a nationally representative cohort of 169,871 men and women > or = 40 years of age in China. Data on BP and other variables were obtained at a baseline examination in 1991 using standard protocols. Follow-up evaluation was conducted in 1999-2000, with a response rate of 93.4%. After adjustment for age, sex, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, body mass index, education, geographic region, urbanization, and time-dependent history of diabetes, a strong and linear association between both systolic and diastolic BP and incidence of CVD, coronary heart disease and stroke were observed (all P < 0.0001). For example, the relative risks (95% confidence interval (CI)) of CVD incidence were 1.09 (1.00-1.18), 1.25 (1.16-1.35), 1.49 (1.38-1.62), 2.15 (1.99-2.31), 3.01 (2.78-3.27), and 4.16 (3.84-4.51) for those with systolic/diastolic BP of 110-119/75-79, 120-129/80-84, 130-139/85-89, 140-159/90-99, 160-179/100-109, and > or = 180/110 mm Hg compared to those with BP <110/75 mm Hg. Increases in systolic BP were associated with a greater risk of CVD compared to corresponding increases in ...Continue Reading
