BACKGROUND: The strong relationship between blood pressure (BP) and age is well known. Limited evidence suggests that a steeper age-BP slope may be associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes. The May Measurement Month campaign enables an investigation of geographic, socioeconomic, and sex differences in age-related BP gradients and their association with public-health outcomes.
METHODS: Cross-sectional, annual global BP May Measurement Month screening data were analyzed. Average systolic BP and age-related BP slopes across different age groups were calculated to assess regional, socioeconomic, and sex-stratified variations. The association of BP slopes derived from adjusted linear regression models with country-level health metrics was investigated.
RESULTS: Age-related systolic BP gradients differed distinctly across global geographic regions, income levels, and between sexes. The steepest age gradients of BP were observed in populations from Africa and Europe. Women had lower BP levels than men at younger ages (20s and 30s) but subsequently experienced more pronounced age-related BP gradients. Geographically divergent age-related BP gradients were significantly associated with major national public health indicators. Globally, steeper age-related BP slopes were associated with poor BP control, increased disability-adjusted life years, and death rates. A steeper population age-BP slope of 1 mm Hg per 10 years was associated with a decrease in life expectancy of 3.3 years in this population (95% CI, -5.1 to -1.4; P=0.0007).
CONCLUSIONS: Age-related BP gradients vary considerably across global populations and are associated with variability in BP-related risks and adverse outcomes across regions. Effective public health strategies may require region-specific targeting of adverse BP gradients to improve health outcomes.
