预测低收入国家的心血管风险状况趋势并及时采取行动调整其转变是全球最大的卫生挑战之一。在2005年，我们评估了莫桑比克人口（n = 3323; 25至64岁）的全国代表性样本的逐步方法慢性病危险因素监测。高血压患病率（收缩压>= 140 mm Hg和/或舒张压>= 90 mm Hg和/或抗高血压药物治疗）、知晓率（在前一年由保健专业人员告知高血压状态）、知晓者的治疗情况（在前两周内使用抗高血压药物）和治疗者的控制情况（血压
The prediction of cardiovascular risk profile trends in low-income countries and timely action to modulate their transitions are among the greatest global health challenges. In 2005 we evaluated a nationally representative sample of the Mozambican population (n = 3323; 25 to 64 years old) following the Stepwise Approach to Chronic Disease Risk Factor Surveillance. Prevalence of hypertension (systolic blood pressure >= 140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure >= 90 mm Hg and/or antihypertensive drug therapy), awareness (having been informed of the hypertensive status by a health professional in the previous year), treatment among the aware (use of antihypertensive medication in the previous fortnight), and control among those treated (blood pressure
