  • Protective health factors and incident hypertension in men.

    Banda JA, Clouston K, Sui X, Hooker SP, Lee CD, Blair SN. Am J Hypertens. 2010; 23 (6): 599-605

    Few studies have examined the association between a combination of lifestyle factors and the incidence of hypertension, particularly among men. This is important as lifestyle factors are often interrelated, and may often occur in combination. Thus, we investigated the individual and combined effects of body mass index (BMI), smoking status, alcohol intake, physical activity (PA), and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) on the incidence of hypertension in men.
