Studies on blood pressure and hypertension in children of 13 minority nationalities in China
Blood pressure measurements of 57775 children, aged 7–15, including 13 minority nationalities and Han people in the same region, were made and analysed in 1983. The results indicated that the mean blood pressure and the incidence of hypertension were higher in Lahu, Kazakh and Mongol children than in Tujia, Hui and Uygur children. There was remarkable difference in the mean blood pressure between minority nationalities and Han people living in the same regions, and difference could also be seen among the same minority nationality living in different areas. It seems that the natural and geographical conditions, life style and dietary habits, and hereditary features of different minorities exert great influence on the blood pressure of children.
