收缩压和舒张压是在美国两个最大的种族群体中的全国性概率样本中测量的。受访者年龄在18-79岁之间,总样本中有7,710人(85%)中的6,546人提供了可用的血压数据。高加索人和黑人的数据按年龄和性别分别以单位列出;还按人种组列出了年龄和性别特异性平均值和标准差。收缩压和舒张压一般显示出预期的随年龄增长而增加,并且分布是偏斜的。值得注意的是,虽然两个种族群体的妇女的收缩压随着年龄的增长而增加,但两个种族群体的男子的收缩压却没有这种年龄趋势。舒张压的模式相似,但不太明确。
The systolic and diastolic blood pressure was measured in a nationwide probability sample of persons of both sexes and the two largest racial groups in the United States. Respondents were aged 18–79 years and useable blood pressure data were available for 6,546 of 7,710 (85%) of the total sample. The data are presented in percentiles for Caucasians and Negroes separately by age and sex; age and sex specific means and standard deviations are also presented by racial group. Systolic and diastolic pressure show in general the expected increase with age, and the distribution is skewed. Attention is drawn to the fact that while for systolic pressure there is an increase with age of the lower percentiles in women of both racial groups, there is no such age trend in these percentiles in man of either racial group. Patterns for diastolic pressure are similar, though less clear-cut.
