Prehypertension: Defining the Transitional Phenotype

Current Hypertension Reports, 2015
More than a simple "transitional stage" defined by covenanted cut points of systolic pressure from 120 to 139 mm of mercury (mm Hg) or a diastolic pressure from 80 to 89 mm Hg, prehypertension should be referred to as a categorical term that defines a specific phenotype in the progression from the "absence of disease" to clinically overt disease.

Prehypertension and risk of cardiovascular diseases: a meta-analysis of 47 cohort studies.

Journal of Hypertension, 2019
OBJECTIVE To assess the association of prehypertension (SBP 120-139 mmHg and/or DBP 80-89 mmHg) and total cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), coronary heart disease (CHD), myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke.

Hemodynamics of Prehypertension

2018
Hemodynamic investigations in prehypertensive people have revealed that already at this early stage of hypertension, total peripheral resistance is increased. This is true even in situations where cardiac output is elevated. Heart rate and arterial stiffness are clearly higher as well in prehypertensives as compared to normotensives.

Cardiac Dysfunction Investigation in Prehypertension

2005 IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology 27th Annual Conference, 2005
To study the possible cardiac function alternation in hypertension, 13 cardiac function parameters such as blood pressure (BP), cardiac output (CO), ejection time (ET) and stroke volume (SV), etc. were measured in 898 subjects. The subjects were grouped into 3 groups by blood pressure, namely: normotension, prehypertension and hypertension group ...

Prehypertension: epidemiology, consequences and treatment

Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2009
The term prehypertension was coined in 1939 in the context of early studies that linked high blood pressure recorded during physical examination for life insurance purposes to subsequent morbidity and mortality. These studies demonstrated that individuals with blood pressure >120/80 mmHg, but

Heart and Prehypertension

2018
Asymptomatic alterations of the cardiovascular system reflect intermediate stages in the disease continuum linking risk factors such as high blood pressure (BP), hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, obesity, and smoking to cardiovascular fatal and nonfatal events.

Prehypertension: Detection, evaluation, and management

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2008
Prehypertension was defined as a discrete category in 1993. There is evidence to support active management of this entity given the increased risk of hypertension, cardiovascular disease, heart failure, and stroke. There have been few comprehensive summaries on the management of this population.

Endothelial Changes in Individuals with Prehypertension

Current Hypertension Reviews, 2016
Prehypertension is considered a precursor of systemic arterial hypertension and a predictor of morbidity-mortality due to cardiovascular diseases, which are the main causes of death in Brazil and the world. Thus, early diagnosis and the adoption of therapeutic measures in cases of prehypertension can reduce cardiovascular risk.

Subclinical Vascular Damage in Prehypertension

2018
The relationship between blood pressure (BP) and cardiovascular events is continuous and therefore the distinction between normotension and hypertension is arbitrary. Despite this, for practical reasons, this distinction is commonly accepted, although a number of studies have shown that cardiovascular risk is increased when BP values are in the upper ...
