Research activities in the field of pediatric hypertension have been increasing in recent years, leading to important new findings in the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertension in children. This review summarizes recent work in these areas, focusing on the epidemic of obesity-related hypertension in children, advances in the drug therapy of childhood hypertension, and the increasing use of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in evaluation of hypertensive children. Each of these three areas will no doubt develop further over the years ahead, resulting in further advances in the field of childhood hypertension.
近年来，小儿高血压领域的研究活动不断增加，在儿童高血压的流行病学、诊断和治疗方面取得了重要的新发现。本综述总结了这些领域的近期工作，重点关注儿童肥胖相关高血压的流行情况、儿童高血压药物治疗的进展以及动态血压监测在高血压儿童评估中的日益广泛应用。毫无疑问，在未来几年里，这三个领域中的每一个都将进一步发展，推动儿童高血压领域取得更大进展。
