摘要
The influence of age and sex on the prevalence of masked hypertension determined by home blood pressure ( BP) monitoring was examined in 630 Japanese people not taking antihypertensive drugs. Older ( >= 40 years, n = 231) and male ( n = 413) subjects showed a significantly higher prevalence of masked hypertension than younger (<40 years, n = 399) and female ( n = 217) subjects. Therefore, the prevalence of masked hypertension evaluated by home BP was influenced by age and sex.
