High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a common yet silent health concern that affects millions of people worldwide. Often without noticeable symptoms, this condition increases the force of blood against the walls of your arteries, potentially leading to severe health complications over time, such as heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure.

During the 7-year follow-up period, the prevalence of elevated blood pressure and hypertension and heart damage among adolescents doubled. With extensive control for fat mass, muscle mass, glucose, lipids, smoking status, sedentary time, physical activity, and family history of cardiovascular disease, and using adults’ cut points for diagnosing heart damage, it was observed that high blood pressure and hypertension caused premature heart damage in both males and females.
