We studied the prevalence of hypertension in 57,499 male and 35,803 female Israeli military recruits and its relation with sex, weight, and parents' ethnic origin. The overall prevalence of systolic hypertension (greater than 140 mmHg) was 1.75 per cent for males and 0.32 per cent for females. The prevalence of diastolic hypertension (greater than 90 mmHg) was 0.41 per cent for males and 0.06 per cent for females. For males, the prevalence of systolic and diastolic hypertension increased with weight, exponentially. Males of Ashkenazi origin had a significantly higher prevalence of hypertension (systolic 2.52 per cent, diastolic 0.55 per cent) compared with those of Sephardi origin (systolic 1.12 per cent, diastolic 0.3 per cent). The prevalence of adolescents with systolic or diastolic blood pressure greater than the mean +2SD of each weight group ranged between 1.5-2.3 per cent.
我们研究了57499名以色列男性新兵和35803名以色列女性新兵中高血压的患病率及其与性别、体重和父母族裔的关系。男性收缩期高血压（大于140毫米汞柱）的总体患病率为1.75%，女性为0.32%。男性舒张期高血压（大于90毫米汞柱）的患病率为0.41%，女性为0.06%。对于男性，收缩期和舒张期高血压的患病率随体重呈指数增长。与西班牙裔男性（收缩期1.12%，舒张期0.3%）相比，德系犹太人血统的男性高血压患病率显著更高（收缩期2.52%，舒张期0.55%）。收缩压或舒张压高于每个体重组均值+2标准差的青少年患病率在1.5%-2.3%之间。
