Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Objectives: To assess the risk of progression to hypertension across baseline blood pressure (BP) level among rural Chinese adults. Methods: A population-based sample of 24 052 rural Chinese adults aged at least 35 years and free from hypertension at baseline were followed up from 2004-2006 to 2008. Incident hypertension was defined as SBP of at least 140 mmHg, DBP of at least 90 mmHg, current use of antihypertensive medication, or all. Results: During a median follow-up of 28 months, 26.5% participants developed clinical hypertension, most of which were untreated and uncontrolled. The cumulative incidence of hypertension in participants with optimal, normal, and high-normal BP was 21.2, 25.2, and 32.4%, respectively. The higher incidence of hypertension (per 100 person-years) was obviously observed in higher BP category at baseline among both older and younger groups (both P for trend <0.05). Compared with optimal BP, the adjusted hazard ratios of participants with normal and high-normal BP for incident hypertension were 1.16 (95% confidence interval 1.08-1.24) and 1.28 (95% confidence interval 1.20-1.36), respectively. In addition, older age, men, Mongolian ethnicity, alcohol drinking, family history of hypertension, BMI, and change in BMI during follow-up were also independently associated with incident hypertension. Conclusion: There was a stepwise increase in risk of progression to hypertension across baseline BP level. This information could help us define a population at high risk of progression to hypertension, to underscore the importance of frequent BP monitoring, and early interventions in rural Chinese adults. © 2010 Wolters Kluwer Health | Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
