Systemic arterial hypertension manifests as constant elevation of blood pressure and is considered to be an important cardiovascular risk factor. Systemic evaluation of cardiovascular diseases in patients with systemic arterial hypertension is imperative for prevention.
The objective of the present study was to investigate and inter-relate sex and age with systemic arterial hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.
Medical records of patients with systemic arterial hypertension and cardiovascular disease were evaluated. Data from the medical records were recorded in a prescribed protocol and the data were analyzed and correlated to the patients' age and sex.
A total of 170 medical records for patients who visited the cardiology department were reviewed. Of these, 50 patients had systemic arterial hypertension and 19 of this subset had cardiovascular diseases. When we correlated systemic arterial hypertension with age, we observed that patients in the 51-60 years age group were more prone to systemic arterial hypertension (36%). Most of the patients with both systemic arterial hypertension and cardiovascular disease were female and in the 61-70 years age group, while among males the highest rate of occurrence was seen in the 51-60 years age group. The correlation coefficient (r) was 0.62, indicating a moderate, positive, linear relationship between systemic arterial hypertension and cardiovascular disease.
A majority of patients with systemic arterial hypertension may develop cardiovascular disease and, as age increases, the tendency to develop hypertension also increases.
系统性动脉高血压表现为血压持续升高,被认为是一个重要的心血管危险因素。对系统性动脉高血压患者进行心血管疾病的系统评估对于预防至关重要。
本研究的目的是调查系统性动脉高血压及心血管疾病与性别和年龄之间的关系,并进行相互关联分析。
对系统性动脉高血压和心血管疾病患者的病历进行评估。病历数据按照规定方案记录,并对数据进行分析,与患者的年龄和性别相关联。
共审查了170份心内科就诊患者的病历。其中,50例患者患有系统性动脉高血压,该亚组中有19例患有心血管疾病。当我们将系统性动脉高血压与年龄相关联时,我们观察到51 - 60岁年龄组的患者更容易患系统性动脉高血压(36%)。大多数同时患有系统性动脉高血压和心血管疾病的患者为女性,年龄在61 - 70岁组,而男性中发病率最高的是51 - 60岁组。相关系数(r)为0.62,表明系统性动脉高血压与心血管疾病之间存在中度、正性线性关系。
大多数系统性动脉高血压患者可能会发展为心血管疾病,并且随着年龄的增加,患高血压的倾向也会增加。
