1995年1月17日凌晨5点46分，日本坂神淡路地区发生了一次大地震。我们调查了36名高血压患者在地震前后的家庭血压（BP）变化。在16名居住在震中50公里以内的患者中，地震当天的家庭血压明显高于地震前（+11/+6 mm Hg;收缩压P < .01，舒张压P < .05）。在地震后的第一周内，它一直保持较高水平，然后在4周内逐渐恢复到基线水平。在20名居住在距离震中50公里以外的患者中，家庭BP没有显着变化。地震应激使高血压患者血压升高，但其压力效应不持久。(C)1997年美国高血压杂志有限公司
At 5:46 AM on January 17, 1995, the Hanshin-Awaji district of Japan was struck by a major earthquake. We investigated changes in home blood pressure (BP) of 36 hypertensive patients before and after the earthquake. In the 16 patients who lived within 50 km from the epicenter, the home BP on the day of the earthquake was significantly higher than that just before the earthquake (+11/+6 mm Hg; P < .01 for systolic BP and P < .05 for diastolic BP). It remained higher throughout the first week after the earthquake, then gradually returned to the baseline level within 4 weeks. The home BP did not change significantly in the 20 patients who lived farther than 50 km from the epicenter. The earthquake-induced stress increased the BP in these hypertensive patients; however, its presser effect was not persistent. (C) 1997 American Journal of Hypertension, Ltd.
