Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This study examines blood pressure characteristics in adolescents and young adults, specifically students from Andijan State Medical Institute, to assess factors influencing blood pressure levels and the prevalence of arterial hypertension. Background: Hypertension in youth poses significant health risks, yet determinants in this age group remain understudied. Objective: To identify lifestyle and genetic influences on blood pressure in adolescents and young adults. Methods: Blood pressure was monitored daily, complemented by questionnaires on participants' physical activity, diet, and family history. Results reveal that both lifestyle habits and hereditary factors substantially impact blood pressure. These findings support the development of targeted prevention strategies to reduce hypertension risk in this population.
