Rate Of Increase

Objective. To determine whether changes in aerobic fitness and body mass index are related to the age-related rise in blood pressure in healthy preschool children. Study design. Longitudinal analyses of 196 free-living children aged 5 years at baseline who were followed over a mean of 19:7 months. Aerobic fitness was assessed using a treadmill All measures were obtained on multiple occasions at scheduled visits as part of a longitudinal cohort study. Setting. An inner-city medical center. Outcome measures. Blood pressure was measured using an automated Dinamap device. Results. Mean systolic blood pressure was 95.3 mmHg (SD 8.38) at baseline and increased by 4.46 mmHg per year. Mean diastolic blood pressure was 53.9 mmHg (SD 5.81) at baseline and did not change significantly. Children in the highest quintile of increase in fitness had a significantly smaller increase in systolic blood pressure compared to children in the lowest quintile (2.92 vs 5.10 mmHg/year; P = .03). Children in the lowest quintile of increase in body mass index did not differ significantly in rate of increase in systolic blood pressure compared to children in the highest quintile (3.92 vs 4.96 mmHg/year). In a multiple regression model including baseline systolic blood pressure, fitness, height, body mass index, and other covariates, greater increase in fitness (P = .03) and lesser increase in body mass index (P < .01) were associated with lower rates of increase in systolic blood pressure. In a similar multivariate analysis, an increase in fitness was also associated with a lower rate of increase in diastolic blood pressure (P = .02) Conclusion. Young children who increase their aerobic fitness or decrease their body mass index reduce the rate of the age-related increase in blood pressure. These observations may have implications for development of interventions directed at the primary prevention of hypertension.

Abstract Introduction Injuries are the major cause of morbidity and loss of active training days in military populations. Previous investigations have mainly focused on lower extremities. This study evaluated the incidence, diagnosis, and risk factors of upper extremity injuries requiring hospitalization in a large cohort of Finnish conscripts during a 5-year period. Materials and Methods A total of 128,714 male military conscripts, who served 6–12 months in compulsory military service, were studied. Injury hospitalization data were obtained from the National Hospital Discharge Register. The main outcome variables were hospitalization due to any injuries to the upper extremity and hospitalization due to traumatic shoulder dislocation. Background variables for risk factor analysis included length of military service, age, body height and weight, body mass index, and physical fitness. Results Overall person-based incidence rate for hospitalization due to upper extremity injury was 743 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 697–791) per 100,000 conscripts per year. Shoulder joint dislocation was the most common injury: incidence rate of 103 (95% CI: 86–122) per 100,000 conscripts per year. Trend during follow-up years 1998–2002 was decreasing concerning on any upper extremity injuries (odd ratios [OR] 0.90; 95% CI: 0.86–0.95, P < 0.001). Body mass index > 25 increased a risk for any injuries of the upper extremity (OR 1.29; CI 95%: 1.10–1.51) and, especially, for shoulder joint dislocation (OR 1.88; CI 95%: 1.26–2.80). Conclusions Overweight young men were at greater risk for upper extremity injuries. The incidence rate of traumatic shoulder joint dislocation was considerably higher than reported previously. In conclusion, preventive measures such as reducing the body weight of overweight young men should play an important role in reducing the incidence of upper extremity injuries.
