高血压是人类健康的老问题了。不过,最近国外一些有关高血压的新发现,使医学界对高血压又有了新的认识。美国国立心肺及血液研究所调查了2767名男女,获得了一项重要证据,显示舒张压正常而收缩压偏高(即高于140～159毫米汞柱)的人,其发生中风、充血性心力衰竭和冠心病的风险大于收缩压正常(即低于140毫米汞柱)的人。这个研究报告结论说,和以前大家所认同的理论相反,如今有越来越多的证据显示,收缩压过高可能比舒张压过高更危险。收缩压过高的人是
Hypertension is an old problem of human health. However, some recent new findings on hypertension have given the medical community a new understanding of high blood pressure. The 2748 men and women surveyed by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute received an important piece of evidence showing that people with normal diastolic blood pressure and high systolic blood pressure (ie, above 140-159 mm Hg) have stroke, congestive heart failure The risk of failure and coronary heart disease is greater than the normal systolic blood pressure (ie, below 140 mmHg). The study concludes that there is now more and more evidence that systolic blood pressure may be more dangerous than diastolic blood pressure, contrary to what was previously accepted. Systolic blood pressure is too high
