Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring: mean blood pressure and blood pressure load

Pediatric Nephrology, 2005
Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is commonly used to diagnose pediatric hypertension. Using ABPM, hypertension is usually defined as a mean BP greater than the 95th percentile for height. A BP load >30% (% of BP readings greater than the 95th percentile) is also used for the diagnosis of hypertension.

Incarceration and blood pressure

Social Science & Medicine. Part A: Medical Psychology & Medical Sociology, 1980
Abstract Blood pressures of 912 male prison inmates are reported. Significantly lower pressures than those of the general population were found. The prevalence of hypertension was only 6% when defined by pressures in excess of 140/90 mm Hg. The association of blood pressure and incarceration was independent of age, sex, weight or race.
