Systolic and diastolic hypertension: no relationship with lipid and inflammatory markers in Haute-Garonne, France.

BACKGROUND: Isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) is a major cardiovascular risk factor. The prevalence of ISH, isolated diastolic ( IDH), and mixed hypertension (MH) and their association with lipid, inflammatory, and endothelial cell markers were assessed. METHODS: A population sample from Haute-Garonne, France, was chosen. RESULTS: Prevalence of ISH, IDH, and MH was 16%, 5%, and 16%, respectively, in men, and 13%, 2%, and 9% in women. No difference was found between ISH, IDH, or MH subjects in comparison to normotensive individuals for all biologic markers studied. CONCLUSIONS: Isolated systolic hypertension and MH are relatively common in Haute-Garonne and are not associated with lipid, inflammatory, or endothelial cell markers.[1]
