The smoking habits of 48 patients with malignant hypertension were compared with those of 92 consecutive patients with non-malignant hypertension. Thirty-three of the patients with malignant and 34 of the patients with non-malignant hypertension were smokers when first diagnosed. This difference was significant, and remained so when only men or black and white patients were considered separately. Results suggest that malignant hypertension is yet another disease related to cigarette smoking.
将48例恶性高血压患者的吸烟习惯与92例连续的非恶性高血压患者的吸烟习惯进行了比较。恶性高血压患者中有33例、非恶性高血压患者中有34例在初次诊断时为吸烟者。这种差异具有显著性，在分别仅考虑男性患者或黑人和白人患者时同样如此。结果表明，恶性高血压是与吸烟相关的又一种疾病。
