To test an observational hypothesis that patients with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) may have a tendency towards hypertension compared with normal individuals.
In this case-control study we evaluated resting blood pressure in 32 patients with CSCR and compared it with that in 32 healthy controls in a standard laboratory environment. Differences in resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured.
Mean systolic blood pressure was 123.56+/-4.8 in the CSCR group and 113.63+/-12.62 in the control group. Mean diastolic blood pressure was 84.75+/-10.2 in the CSCR group and 76.75+/-0.4 in the control group. The difference in mean blood pressure values between the two groups was statistically significant.
Patients with CSCR may be predisposed to prehypertension. Hence they should be advised on lifestyle modification and followed up periodically for early detection of progression to stage 1 or 2 hypertension.
检验一项观察性假设,即与正常个体相比,中心性浆液性脉络膜视网膜病变(CSCR)患者可能有患高血压的倾向。
在这项病例对照研究中,我们在标准实验室环境下评估了32例CSCR患者的静息血压,并将其与32名健康对照者的静息血压进行比较。测量静息收缩压和舒张压的差异。
CSCR组的平均收缩压为123.56±4.8,对照组为113.63±12.62。CSCR组的平均舒张压为84.75±10.2,对照组为76.75±0.4。两组之间平均血压值的差异具有统计学意义。
CSCR患者可能易患高血压前期。因此,应建议他们改变生活方式,并定期随访,以便早期发现进展为1期或2期高血压。
