Anthropometric predictors of systolic and diastolic blood pressure considering intersexual differences in a group of selected schoolchildren.

CONCLUSIONS: Linear regression model confirmed higher statistical relationship of SBP and DBP in the group of boys compared to the group of girls. SBP correlations and linear regression model of anthropometric parameters revealed more significant outputs compared to DPB. The results confirmed the fact that we have to consider anthropometric indices in paediatric blood pressure evaluation. PMID: 30817866 [PubMed - in process]
