Step-by-Step Solution:1. Understanding Blood Pressure: Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and is expressed as two numbers: systolic and diastolic. The systolic pressure is the higher nu
Elevated blood pressure:Your systolic pressure is 120-129, and your diastolic pressure is less than 80. Lifestyle changes and monitoring your blood pressure may be all you need at this point. Your doctor will let you know. Stage I hypertension:Systolic 130-139 or diastolic 80-89...
Results: The average systolic/diastolic blood pressure among female-male was 112.9/72.4 mmHg-119.8/73.9 mmHg, respectively. Also, the Central Aortic Pressure in the female-male groups was 100.0 mmHg/103.7 mmHg, while the maximum values are 101.5 mmHg/106.0 mmHg, but the differences between the ...
There are two readings that matter when your BP is checked. Thesystolic numberis a measure of pressure when your heart beats. Thediastolic numberis the measure of BP between heartbeats. When you take a reading, systolic will be the number on the top and diastolic will be the number on the...

Normal: Less than 120 mm Hg for systolic and 80 mm Hg for diastolic. Elevated: Between 120-129 mm Hg for systolic, and less than 80 mm Hg for diastolic. Stage 1 hypertension: Between 130 and 139 mm Hg for systolic or between 80 and 89 mm Hg for diastolic. Stage 2 hypertension: At...
Increased Levels of Systolic Blood Pressure Within the Normal Range Are Associated With Significantly Elevated Risks of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease A positive association between hypertension or high-normal blood pressure (BP) and risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is well-known; ...
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of normotensive (systolic BP [SBP] Results: Compared with optimal BP, high-normal BP was significantly associated with increased odds of microalbuminuria (odds ratio [OR], 2.13; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.51 to 3.01). Similarly, MAP (OR, 1.41...
Renal function was determined by simultaneous measurements of 51Cr-ethylenediaminetetraacetate (a marker of glomerular filtration rate), lithium and sodium clearances. Results: Supine systolic and diastolic BPs were significantly elevated in OH, with both low and high dietary sodium intake. There was ...
