摘要

In this issue of The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, Harman and colleagues report on 2415 persons with treated hypertension (1667 women; 748 men; mean age, 60±11 years) in the Jackson Heart Study (JHS), a community-based cohort study of 5301 African American adults living in the Jackson, Mississippi, metropolitan statistical area. This landmark study was initiated in response to the high prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) among African Americans and is an excellent opportunity to better understand the unique aspects of hypertension and related CVD in African Americans, whose prevalence is among the highest in the world and steadily increasing. Compared with Caucasians, African Americans develop high blood pressure (BP) earlier in life, with much higher average BP and a 1.3-times greater rate of nonfatal stroke, a 1.8-times greater rate of fatal stroke, a 1.5-times greater rate of CVD mortality, and a 4.2-times greater rate of end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
