Elevated blood pressure in relation to overweight and obesity among children
In the study to evaluate whether overweight and obesity were associated with prehypertension and hypertension in a well-characterized population of children in rural Canada, showed that of 675 children (98.7% white), 122 (18.1%) were overweight and 77 (11.4%) were obese. Prehypertension and hypertension were detected in 51 (7.6%) and 50 (7.4%), respectively. After adjustment for family history of hypertension and kidney disease, obesity was associated with both prehypertension and hypertension. Overweight was associated with hypertension but not prehypertension. These associations were observed across the genders and children aged <13 and>or=13 years, except that overweight was not associated with hypertension among girls(2).
