A blood pressure survey was carried out in 1976 in the city of Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, which involved 6,351 persons 30-69 years old. The study sample was recruited so as to represent an approximation of the overall distribution of occupational classes in the urban population. Members of the population sample were relatively young and of low educational attainment. To the extent that comparisons among surveys are feasible, mean blood pressure levels and hypertension rates were roughly comparable to those found in the white population of the United States. Although no firm conclusions can be drawn from the survey, a trend toward somewhat higher hypertension rates within the professional and managerial class was observed in some age groups in Laredo.
1976年在墨西哥新拉雷多市开展了一项血压调查，涉及6351名30至69岁的人员。研究样本的选取旨在近似代表城市人口职业阶层的总体分布。该人群样本的成员相对年轻且受教育程度较低。在可行进行调查比较的范围内，平均血压水平和高血压患病率与在美国白人人群中发现的大致相当。尽管无法从该调查得出确凿结论，但在拉雷多的一些年龄组中，观察到专业和管理阶层的高血压患病率有略高的趋势。
