Foreign media say China hypertension country: more than 200 million people-IT information

Last year, 1.1 billion people worldwide have high blood pressure. United Kingdom medical journal published an article in the Lancet noted that the incidence of high blood pressure due to population growth and population aging.

According to the Germany radio voice of the November 20, experts from the World Health Organization and the global in hundreds of medical workers on the project, about 200 countries and regions to approximately 19,100,018 adults above the age of blood pressure measurement. This project includes 1479 special investigation task. According to a paper published in the Lancet, the blood pressure record blood pressure data from 1975 to 2015, is by far the largest, is the most complete data field research projects.

Data showed the core conclusion is that over the past 40 years, the sharp decline in the number of patients with hypertension in rich countries and in poor countries, the figures are on the rise.

Europe-wide 2015 United Kingdom are countries with the lowest percentage of patients with high blood pressure. Globally, Korea and the United States and Canada the lowest percentage of the population suffering from the disease. Survey estimates that worldwide among adults with hypertension of 50% live in Asia, and one of the two big hypertension is China (226 million) and India (200 million).

Aizhati Professor, Department of public health at Imperial College London (Majid Ezzati) says, "before and after 1975, the etiology of hypertension is the promotion of rich, and now more associated with poverty. "He said while also unable to explain the reasons for the high incidence of hypertension in poor countries, but can be identified, healthy environment better in rich countries, people consume more fruits and vegetables.

Blood pressure is when the flow of blood in the blood vessels, the pressure acts on the blood vessel walls, it is the power of blood flow in blood vessels. High blood pressure makes the heart move blood through the vessels when within the loop increases the burden.

There are two kinds of blood pressure, systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The normal range is systolic blood pressure 100-140 mmHg mmHg, 60-90 mmHg mmHg diastolic blood pressure. Persistently higher than 140/90 mm Hg blood pressure mmHg hypertension when.

外媒称中国成高血压大国：超2亿人患病 - IT资讯

去年，全球共有11亿人患有高血压。据英国著名医学杂志《柳叶刀》发表文章指出，高血压发病率增高的原因是人口增长以及人口老年化。

据德国之声电台网站11月20日报道，世界卫生组织的专家同全球数百名医学工作者在这个项目中，对200个国家和地区对大约1910万18岁以上的成年人进行了血压测量。该项目包括了1479个专门的调研任务。《柳叶刀》发表的论文显示，该血压项目记录了从1975年至2015年的血压数据，是迄今该领域规模最大、也是数据最完整的实地调研项目。

数据显示的最核心结论是，在过去40年里，富裕国家高血压患者的数量急剧下降，而在贫困国家，这一数字却在增长。

欧洲范围内，2015年的英国是高血压患者比例最低的国家。全球范围里，韩国、美国和加拿大患该病的人口比例最低。调查估计，全球成年人当中高血压患者的50%生活在亚洲，而其中的两个高血压大国是中国（2.26亿）和印度（2亿）。

伦敦帝国学院公共卫生学系的埃扎提教授（Majid Ezzati）说，"1975年前后，高血压的病因主要是富裕程度的提升，而现在更多的是同贫穷相关。"他说虽然还无法解释在贫困国家高血压发病率高的原因，但基本可以认定，富裕国家的健康环境更好，人们消费的水果和蔬菜更多。

血压是血液在血管内流动时，作用于血管壁的压力，它是推动血液在血管内流动的动力。血压升高则使心脏推动血液在血管内循环时的负担增大。

血压有两种，收缩压和舒张压。正常范围是，收缩压100-140毫米汞柱mmHg，舒张压60-90毫米汞柱mmHg。血压持续高于140/90毫米汞柱mmHg时则为高血压。
