Arterial pulse wave velocity, an established index of arterial
distensibility, was measured together with arterial pressure in a group of
524 normal subjects of both sexes 2 months to 94 years old (mean age 45.6
+/- 15.3 years [SD]) in rural Guangzhou, China, an area with known low
prevalence of hypertension. Fasting serum lipid levels and overnight Na+
and K+ urinary excretion levels were determined in a subgroup of 104
subjects (ages 8 to 88 years). Comparisons were made with data obtained
similarly from normal subjects in urban Beijing, an area with known high
prevalence of hypertension. Serum cholesterol levels were similar and low
in each group (Guangzhou, 4.34 +/- 0.12 mmol/liter [SE]; BEijing, 4.49 +/-
0.11 mmol/liter). Prevalence of hypertension (WHO criteria) was 4.9%
(Guangzhou) and 15.6% (Beijing). In Guangzhou subjects pulse wave velocity
was consistently lower in the aorta, arm, and leg, and increased to a
lesser degree with age compared with Beijing subjects. Regression equations
(x = pulse wave velocity [cm/sec], y = age [years]) were as follows: (1)
aorta, Guangzhou: y = 5.1x + 533, r = .552, p less than .05; Beijing: y =
9.2x + 615, r = .673, p less than .001; (2) arm, Guangzhou: y = 0.61x +
817, r = .121, p less than .05; Beijing: y = 4.8x + 998, r = .453, p less
than .001; (3) leg, Guangzhou: y = 4.43x + 718, r = .512, p less than .05;
Beijing: y = 5.6x + 791, r = .630, p less than .001.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT
