Prehypertension is a warning to individuals with resting blood pressures between 120/80 mmHg and 139/89 mmHg of an insidious progression of blood pressure towards hypertensive levels (≥ 140/90 mmHg). Prehypertension is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and end organ damage compared with individuals who are normotensive. This review primarily focuses on internal and external factors associated with the prevalence of prehypertension. Elucidating all of the factors associated with a rise in resting blood pressure and comparing the effects of medication versus lifestyle changes may aid the clinician in developing a preventive and/or treatment strategy for each individual.
血压值处于120/80 mmHg至139/89 mmHg之间的个体存在血压向高血压水平(≥140/90 mmHg)隐匿进展的情况,“高血压前期”就是对这类个体的一个警示。与血压正常的个体相比,高血压前期与心血管风险增加及靶器官损害相关。本综述主要关注与高血压前期患病率相关的内在和外在因素。阐明所有与静息血压升高相关的因素,并比较药物治疗与生活方式改变的效果,可能有助于临床医生为每个个体制定预防和/或治疗策略。
