Incidence and predictors of isolated systolic hypertension and isolated diastolic hypertension in Taiwan.

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association = Taiwan yi zhi, 2001
The significance of isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) has been well documented, particularly in the elderly. However, isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH) has not been formally recognized as a unique hypertension entity. This study compared the ages of onset and characteristics of ISH and IDH.The Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors Two-Township ...
