Blood pressures, heights and weights were measured in 1,692 elementary school black children. Elevated blood pressure (EBP) was defined as a systolic or diastolic reading above the 90th percentile for age, and weights were categorized into five classes based on weight for height norms. Systolic EBP children, whether boys or girls, were three times as likely to be obese as black children in the total population, and a similar relationship held for diastolic EBP children.
对1692名黑人小学生进行了血压、身高和体重测量。高血压(EBP)定义为收缩压或舒张压读数高于年龄对应的第90百分位数,体重根据身高体重标准分为五类。收缩期EBP儿童,无论男孩还是女孩,肥胖的可能性是总体黑人儿童的三倍,舒张期EBP儿童也存在类似关系。
