Prevalence rate of hypertension in Tianjin is one of the highest in China, so we had done a series of epidemiological study of hypertension in Tianjin. Tianjin is one of the biggest cities in China with 8 million population. Prevalence rate of hypertension (1985) is 9.24% borderline 2.94%, total 12.18%. Incidence rate (1984) 0.66% & 0.14% (borderline). Prevalence rate: male 8.3%, female 10.2%; urban area 10.7%, rural area 5.7%. It increased in recent 20 years. Mortality rate of cardio- & cerebro-vascular diseases in Tianjin is also one of the highest, in China. Hypertension is one of the risk factors of CHD in Tianjin. Prevalence rate of hypertension increases with age. It is higher in drinkers than non-drinkers, higher in smokers than non-smokers. It is higher in the overweight group and in the group with family history of hypertension. High Na intake is one of the risk factors, it seems synergistic with family history. B. P. is lower in summer. It negatively correlates with atmospheric temperature and humidity.
天津高血压患病率位居全国前列，为此我们在天津开展了一系列高血压流行病学研究。天津是中国最大的城市之一，人口达800万。1985年高血压患病率为9.24%，临界高血压为2.94%，总计12.18%。1984年发病率为0.66%，临界发病率为0.14%。患病率：男性8.3%，女性10.2%；市区10.7%，农村5.7%。近20年来呈上升趋势。天津心脑血管疾病死亡率同样位居全国前列。高血压是天津冠心病的危险因素之一。高血压患病率随年龄增长而升高。饮酒者高于不饮酒者，吸烟者高于不吸烟者。超重人群及有高血压家族史人群的患病率更高。高钠摄入是危险因素之一，且似乎与家族史有协同作用。血压在夏季较低，与气温和湿度呈负相关。
