Abstract:
Background: In the modern society, technology has contributed to create physical comfort in the life and simultaneously, there is alteration in dietary habits of youngsters. This has affected adolescent’s health significantly, leading to hypertension in both urban and rural adolescent population. Objectives: Present study aimed to access and compares the prevalence of hypertension among urban and rural adolescent. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional comparative study conducted on 300 healthy age matched adolescents, 10- 19 years of age from each of rural and urban school of Jaipur (Rajasthan). After Institutional Ethical Committee and school administration approval, a predesigned proforma was filled having socio-demographic details, personal and family history. An average blood pressure was calculated by measuring 3 recordings with 5 minutes break through sphygmomanometer. The blood pressure was classified on percentile bases into prehypertension and hypertension. The data inferred by chisquare and ‘p-value’ less than 0.05 considered as significant. Result: The prevalence of hypertension among urban and rural adolescent of Jaipur was 7.6% and 7%, while prehypertension was 32% and 28%, respectively. The prevalence of hypertension was high for systolic than diastolic blood pressure and more in late adolescent than early adolescent age group which was found significant only for systolic hypertension (p=0.003). Conclusion: High prevalence of adolescent’s hypertension is an important risk factor for future consequences of cardiovascular disease suggesting that there should be change in lifestyle. The early detection and management of it can prevent any future disability and mortality.

Abstract:
Elevated blood pressure (BP) is a major risk factor for atherosclerosis. As the studies concerning vascular alterations in pediatric patients are rare, we aimed to study the relationship between hypertension and arterial stiffness in adolescence by novel method independent from BP during examination. Twenty nonobese adolescent boys (16.5 ± 0.4 years) with newly diagnosed essential hypertension, 20 adolescent boys (16.7 ± 0.4 years) with newly diagnosed white-coat hypertension, and 20 healthy controls matched to age and body mass index were examined. Cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), pre-ejection period (PEP), and ejection time (ET) were evaluated. CAVI was significantly increased in essential hypertension patients compared with controls (p < 0.05) with no significant difference in white-coat hypertension patients. Significantly higher baPWV was found in essential and white-coat hypertension patients compared with controls (both p < 0.001). White-coat hypertension patients showed significantly shortened PEP and ET compared with controls (p < 0.01 and p < 0.001, respectively) and essential hypertension patients (both p < 0.05). For the first time, the arterial stiffness in adolescents with newly diagnosed essential and white-coat hypertension was studied using BP-independent index CAVI combined with conventional baPWV. Our study revealed significantly increased CAVI in adolescents with newly diagnosed essential hypertension compared with controls. Our findings could help to understand hypertension–atherosclerosis interaction.

Abstract:
The sex differences in malnutrition and hypertension during adolescence is largely inconclusive. There is also a paucity of data on the sex-specific correlates of malnutrition and hypertension for adolescents. Hence, this study aimed to assess the association between malnutrition, pre-hypertension/hypertension (PHH) and sex among adolescents. The study also aimed to determine and contrast the factors associated with these risks in Ghana. We analysed data of non-pregnant adolescent girls (n = 857) and adolescent boys (n = 870) aged 15–19 years from the 2014 Ghana Demographic and Health Survey (DHS). We modelled the prevalence risk ratio (PRR) of malnutrition and PHH using Cox proportional hazard models. Compared to adolescent girls, boys were more than twice likely to be stunted (PRR = 2.58, 95% C.I (1.77, 3.76)) and underweight (PRR = 2.67, 95% C.I (1.41, 5.09)) but less likely to be overweight/obese (PRR = 0.85, 95% C.I (0.08, 0.29)). Boys were also about twice likely to have PHH (PRR = 1.96, 95% C.I (1.47, 2.59)) compared to their female peers. Girls were more at risk of the detrimental effects of poor education on stunting and PHH. Empowerment index while protective of stunting for girls (PRR = 0.82, 95% C.I (0.67, 0.99)) also increased their risk of overweight/obesity (PRR = 1.31, 95% C.I (1.02, 1.68)). A higher household wealth index (HWI) increased the risk of overweight/obesity for adolescent girls but was protective of stunting and PHH for adolescent boys. Improvement in household water, hygiene, and sanitation (WASH) reduced the risk of stunting by 15% for adolescent boys. Overall, our findings suggest a double-burden of malnutrition with an up-coming non-communicable disease burden for adolescents in Ghana. Our findings may also be highlighting the need to target adolescent boys alongside girls in nutrition and health intervention programmes.

Abstract:
Background: Adolescence is an intermediary phase from childhood to adulthood and is a very delicate phase of life. WHO has defined Adolescence as the period between 10-19 years of life. Among adolescents, girls constitute a more vulnerable group, particularly in developing countries, where they are traditionally married at an early age and are exposed to greater risk of reproductive morbidity and mortality. Nutritional deficiency disorders (stunting, wasting), menstrual disorders, mental health problems etc. appear as serious problem during this stage. The study was done with objective to assess the morbidity pattern in school going adolescent girls in Urban and Rural Prayagraj.Methods: A school based cross-sectional study was carried out in Prayagraj district. Study participants were 800 adolescent girls, 400 urban and 400 rural of age groups 10–19 years studying in class 6th to 12th. The data was collected by using predesigned, pretested, semi structured questionnaire and analyzed by using SPSS 21.0 version.Results: It was observed that most prevalent morbidity in rural and urban school going adolescent girls were dysmenorrhoea 381 (47.6%), pallor 296 (37%), psychological problems 325 (40.6%) and ocular diseases 191 (23.8%). Other morbidities were hypertension, dental problems, overweight/obesity, skin diseases, ear diseases, respiratory diseases, gastrointestinal diseases and injury.Conclusions: Out of 800 study participants, 275 adolescent girls were having morbidity. Significant difference in proportion of morbidities was found among rural and urban adolescent girls with ear diseases, eye diseases, pallor, dysmenorrhoea, overweight/obesity and hypertension.

A hipertensão arterial sistêmica é uma síndrome clínica multifatorial caracterizada pela elevação dos níveis tensionais, podendo estar associada a diversas alterações fisiopatológicas. Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo dimensionar o problema, identificar a magnitude e o conhecimento sobre os fatores associados na gênese da hipertensão arterial na infância e adolescência. As informações foram identificadas por meio de levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados LILACS e MEDLINE, livros técnicos e publicações de organizações internacionais e nacionais dos últimos 10 anos. Destaca-se, o aumento da ocorrência de hipertensão na infância e adolescência na última década. E dentre os fatores de exposição que explicam a ocorrência da hipertensão arterial, sobressai-se os fatores ambientais, representados pelo estilo de vida, especialmente alimentação inadequada e inatividade física. Estudos mostram que esses hábitos comportamentais correlacionam com excesso de peso, um dos principais preditores da hipertensão arterial. Desta forma, observa-se que o aumento na ocorrência da hipertensão arterial, nessa fase da vida, constitui evento de relevância epidemiológica, tanto pela magnitude, quanto pela contribuição para o desenvolvimento precoce de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Assim, ações voltadas para a promoção de estilo de vida saudável concorrem com a prevenção e o controle da hipertensão, especialmente nesta fase da vida.

Abstract:
Health care provider perceptions of typical practices play a significant role in evaluating the efficacy of screening and diagnosis of teen high blood pressure in African Americans. African American adults are more likely to develop high blood pressure than are any other ethnic group; however, there is a gap in the literature concerning high blood pressure in teens. Approximately 1 to 5 of every 100 children has high blood pressure. This purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore the perspectives of health care providers on high blood pressure screening and diagnosis of African American asymptomatic teens. The health belief model (HBM) was the conceptual framework used to describe how beliefs and attitudes influence provider high blood pressure screening. Purposive sampling resulted in 9 health care providers (8 pediatricians and 1family medicine physician), who completed a hypertension survey and individual interview. Data were coded and analyzed using thematic analysis. Atlas.ti was used for data management. Theoretical saturation was reached after 9 interviews. Emergent themes included observations from the participants that the absence of initial standardized high blood pressure screening for teens is a significant problem and that age-appropriate high blood pressure resources are not used consistently. Study results contribute to social change by providing an opportunity for heightened awareness and education among health care providers in teen high blood pressure screening and diagnosis processing. Ongoing education and research may engender proactive steps to develop universal guidelines, tools and practices to consistently and accurately detect high blood pressure in teens.

Abstract:
Obesity, elevated blood pressure and dyslipidemia are highly prevalent in Hispanic children. Compared to their non-Hispanic White peers, Hispanic children experience higher prevalence of obesity and hypertension. The Hispanic population in Tennessee has been growing, with about a tenth of newborn babies being Hispanic. This study aimed to: 1. Examine the influence of sociodemographic factors on Hispanic children’s cardiometabolic risk; 2. Assess the relationship between food group intake and cardiometabolic risk in Hispanic children; and 3. Evaluate the efficacy of non-traditional biomarkers for detecting cardiometabolic risk in Hispanic children. Data for the study came from a larger cross-sectional pilot study of metabolic syndrome in Hispanic children attending a community health center in Johnson City, TN. Descriptive and multiple logistic regression analyses were used. The prevalence of overweight and elevated blood pressure were 40.7% and 31.0% respectively. Children of obese mothers were more likely than children of mothers with normal body mass index to engage in less than three days of at least 60 minutes of vigorous physical activity (PA) per week (OR: 6.47: 95% CI: 1.61-26.0). Children whose mothers did not engage in moderate PA were more likely to have elevated blood pressure (OR: 2.50, 95%CI: 1.02-4.53); and to engage in less than three days of at least 60 minutes of vigorous PA per week (OR: 2.92, 95% CI: 1.18-7.24), than children whose mothers engaged in moderate PA. Children generally exceeded fruit and legume intake recommendations, but did not meet vegetable, wholegrain, dairy and fiber recommendations. Higher legume (OR: 0.052, 95% CI: 0.04-0.64), dairy (OR: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.37-0.99) and fiber intake (OR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.81-0.96) were protective against elevated blood pressure, but only fruit intake was protective against overweight (OR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.87-0.99). Leptin, C-peptide and TNF-α showed significant positive correlations with cardiometabolic risk factors. The optimal cut-offs for detecting three or more cardiometabolic risk factors were: leptin, 5.95 ng/ml, C-peptide, 0.73 ng/; and TNF-alpha, 4.28 pg/ml. Helping mothers to achieve and maintain a healthy BMI and promoting children’s consumption of more vegetables, fruits, dairy and fiber could help reduce cardiometabolic risk in Hispanic children.

Abstract:
O diagnóstico e acompanhamento da hipertensão arterial (HA) no paciente pediátrico dependem da acurácia e da representatividade da medida da pressão arterial (PA). A monitorização ambulatorial da pressão arterial (MAPA), apesar de suas vantagens em relação à medida casual, apresenta custo elevado e pode trazer desconforto ao paciente. A medida residencial da pressão arterial (MRPA), apesar de pouco estudada na criança, apresenta-se como um alternativo potencial à MAPA. Os objetivos deste estudo foram comparar as medidas da PA aferidas no consultório, na MRPA, na Liga de Hipertensão e pela MAPA avaliando o efeito do ambiente/observador e determinando a freqüência de valores compatíveis com HA nessas 4 situações. Este estudo foi transversal,prospectivo e foram incluídos pacientes com HA e PA controlada ou não no consultório. Foram analisadas as médias das pressões arteriais sistólicas e diastólicas. A MRPA foi realizada com aparelho OMRON HEM 705 CP por 14 dias, em dois períodos (manhã ou tarde e noite). Na véspera do início da MRPA, o paciente compareceu à Liga de Hipertensão do HC-FMUSP para colocação do equipamento da MAPA (SPACELABS 90207). Foram analisados os dados de 40 pacientes (14 meninas e 26 meninos), idade média 12,1±3,6 anos. Não houve diferença estatística entre as médias das pressões sistólicas (ANOVA p=0,3100) e diastólicas (ANOVA p=0,7700) no consultório com as médias diurnas da MRPA e nem com as médias sistólicas (ANOVA p=0,8240) e diastólicas(ANOVA p=0,1530) do período noturno da MRPA. As médias das pressões sistólicas e diastólicas da Liga e da MAPA foram maiores do que as médias do consultório e da MRPA (p<0,001), porém não houve diferença estatística entre as médias sistólicas e diastólicas da Liga com a MAPA (p=0,077) e (p=0,962) respectivamente. As médias das pressões diastólicas da MRPA foram menores do que as médias do consultório (p=0,001). Em relação à freqüência de pacientes com PA não controlada, esta foi maior na Liga de Hipertensão (Mc Nemar p<0,005), enquanto as comparações entre consultório MRPA diurna, consultório-MAPA vigília, MRPA diurna- MAPA vigília não foram significantes (Mc Nemar p>0,05). Na MAPA sono, os pacientes apresentaram maior freqüência de PA controlada do que na MRPA noturna. Dez pacientes apresentaram PA não controlada no consultório, a MAPA confirmou o diagnóstico em 7/10 (17,5%) pacientes, enquanto 5/10 (12,5%) confirmaram pela MRPA. Nesse grupo, a hipertensão do avental branco ocorreu em 3/10 (7,5%) pacientes diagnosticados pela MAPA e em 5/10 (12,5%) diagnosticados pela MRPA.Trinta pacientes apresentaram valores de PA controlados no consultório, destes 24/30 (60%) pacientes confirmaram o diagnóstico pela MAPA e 26/30 (65%) pela MRPA. A hipertensão mascarada ocorreu em 6/30 (15%) pacientes diagnosticados pela MAPA e em 4/30 (10%) diagnosticados pela MRPA. Nesse estudo demonstrou-se concordância entre MAPA e MRPA (teste de Mc Nemar p<0,01) com boa reprodutibilidade à avaliação do índice Kappa (0,557).
The diagnosis and monitoring of hypertension in pediatric patients depend on the accuracy and reproducibility of blood pressure (BP) measurement. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), despite its advantages over office BP, is costly and can cause discomfort to the patient. The blood pressure measured at home (HBP), although poorly studied in children, represents a potential alternative to ABPM. The objectives of this study were to compare BP measurement in four clinical conditions: office BP , casual BP measured at Liga de Hipertensão, HBP and ABPM, evaluate the effect of environment / observer and to determine the frequency of BP values compatible with the diagnosis of hypertension. This study was cross-sectional and prospective and included patients with arterial hypertension with/without properly controlled BP in the office. The means of systolic and diastolic BP were analyzed in the 4 clinical conditions. HBP was measured for 14 days using a validated fully automatic Omron HEM 705 CP device. ABPM was measured with SpaceLabs 90207 non-invasive portable oscilometric device. We analyzed data from 40 patients (14 girls and 26 boys), mean age 12.1 ± 3.6 (SD) years. There was no difference between systolic (ANOVA p = 0.3100) and diastolic (ANOVA p= 0.7700) BP in the office and daytime HBP nor with nightime systolic HBP ( ANOVA p = 0.8240) and diastolic HBP(ANOVA p = 0.1530). The average systolic and diastolic BP at the Liga de Hipertensão and ABPM were higher than office and HB P (p <0001), but there was no difference in the average systolic (p= 0.077) and diastolic (p = 0.962) BP between Liga and ABPM. The diastolic HBP was lower than office diastolic BP (p = 0001). The frequency of BP values compatible with hipertension was higher at the Liga de Hipertensão (Mc Nemar p <0005), while comparisons between officedaytime HBP, office- daytime ABPM and daytime HBP-ABPM were not significant (Mc Nemar p> 0.05). The BP measurements during nightime ABPM showed a higher frequency of values compatible with hypertension than the night HBP one. Ten patients were diagnosed hypertension in the office, ABPM confirmed the diagnosis in 7 / 10 (17.5%) patients, while 5 / 10 (12.5%) were confirmed by HBP. In this group, white-coat hypertension occurred in 3 / 10 (7.5%) patients as diagnosed by the ABPM and 5 / 10 (12.5%) as diagnosed by HBP.Thirty patients presented BP values within normal limits in the office, 24 / 30 (60%) patients confirmed this diagnosis by ABPM and 26/30 (65%) by HBP. Masked hypertension was diagnosed in 6 / 30 (15%) patients diagnosed by the ABPM and in 4 / 30 (10%) by HBP. This study confirmed a correlation between ABPM and HBP measurements (Mc Nemar test p <0.01) with good reproducibility as evaluated by the Kappa index (0.557).

Introduction: hypertension is a highly prevalent disease with serious personal consequences and for social and health care system. Risk factors for the disease are already present in adolescence and, at this age, the most commons are family history of hypertension and overweight. Many studies show that approximately 15% of young people already have high levels of blood pressure (BP) and BP values are associated with body mass index. Objectives: to identify the knowledge that young people who attend High School have on hypertension and to propose strategies to motivate their peers to have healthy attitudes reducing the risk of developing the disease in the future and, thus, leading to primary prevention of hypertension and health promotion. Methods: Forty-eight students participated in the study. We conducted two focus group sessions with second year High School students of three schools in Sorocaba-SP. A public school in the periphery, one technical public school located at down town and a private school located at city prime area, whose social indicators increased in that order. The interviews and discussions were recorded, transcribed and submitted to thematic analysis of Minayo. Results: In the three schools we found that students have a reasonably good knowledge of the disease, its risk factors and consequences. Many of them have relatives with hypertension. Students suggestions to motivate healthy behavior and prevent the disease varied according to the social level of the students and schools, however, all pointed to creative and participatory strategies. At the periphery school students suggested motivators games to be played at classrooms and rap contest with the prevention of hypertension as a central theme. At the technical school predominated suggestions developed in the social networks via the Internet, interactivity, reflection on the subject and the active participation of school and governmental and non-governmental organizations. Students from the private school suggested to use electronic games and challenges that have as subject hypertension and care involving the disease. Conclusions: The high school students make up a rich territory to work on health promotion and primary prevention of prevalent diseases. Students are highly motivated to participate in this educational process
Introdução: A hipertensão arterial (HA) é uma doença muito prevalente, com graves consequências pessoais, sociais e para o sistema de saúde. Os fatores predisponentes para a doença já estão presentes na adolescência e, nesta idade, os mais frequentes são os antecedentes familiares e o excesso de peso. Vários estudos evidenciam que aproximadamente 15% dos jovens já apresentam valores elevados da pressão arterial (PA) e os valores pressóricos estão associados ao índice de massa corporal. Objetivos: Identificar o conhecimento que os jovens que frequentam o ensino médio têm sobre a HA e que estratégias propõem para motivar seus pares a terem atitudes saudáveis reduzindo o risco de desenvolver a doença no futuro. Métodos: Participaram 48 alunos do segundo ano do ensino médio oriundos de três escolas de Sorocaba-SP. Uma estadual localizada na periferia, uma estadual técnica no centro e uma particular localizada em área nobre da cidade. Foram realizados dois Grupos Focais em cada escola. Os depoimentos e discussões foram gravadas, transcritas e submetidas à Análise Temática segundo Minayo. Resultados: Nas três escolas observamos que os alunos têm conhecimentos básicos de fisiologia, dos fatores de risco, das consequências e medidas de prevenção da HA. As sugestões para motivar o comportamento saudável e prevenir a doença variaram de acordo com as escolas e o nível social dos alunos, porém, todas apontaram para estratégias criativas e participativas. Na escola da periferia foram sugeridos jogos motivadores para serem realizados nas salas de aula e concurso de rap tendo a prevenção da HA como tema central. Na escola técnica predominaram as sugestões desenvolvidas nas redes sociais via internet, interatividade, reflexão sobre o tema e a participação ativa da escola e instituições governamentais e não governamentais. Na escola particular, os alunos sugerem utilizar os meios eletrônicos com jogos e desafios que tenham como tema a HA e os cuidados que envolvem a doença. Conclusões: Os alunos do ensino médio compõem um rico território para se trabalhar a promoção de saúde e a prevenção primária de doenças prevalentes. Os estudantes estão muito motivados a participar deste processo educativo

Pregnancy in adolescence, especially in younger age groups and vulnerable population groups, can lead to health risks due to clinical and obstetric complications for pregnant, mother and newborn, as well as psychological and socioeconomic repercussions. Objective: To evaluate the possible associations between Hypertensive Syndrome in Pregnancy (HSP) and socio-demographic, pre-natal, and delivery characteristics of teenage and young adults attended to in the public and private health system of Brazil. Methods: An epidemiologic cross-sectional study, hospital-based data and regional level, using data from 54 municipalities of the Northeast region of Brazil from 2011-2012. The records used were obtained from the database of the National Survey on Labor and Delivery, ?Born in Brazil?. The theoretical model used had a three-level hierarchy, and HSP. The distal level included socio-demographic variables: age range, marital status, race/skin color, adequate schooling for age, paid employment, funding for pre-natal visits. The intermediate level included pre-natal variables: Adequacy of prenatal care, previous clinical risk factors and smoking in the first five months. The proximal level consisted of variables related to delivery characteristics: Source of payment of the birth. A multivariate analysis was performed, based on the results of the bivariate analysis and respective p-values with a significance level of <0.20 using the Wald test. Results: Of the 2960 adolescents and young adults, 4,6% (135) presented with Hypertensive syndromes in pregnancy. The mothers without a partner had 1.5 times the odds of developing one of the types of HSP (OR=1.52); those with inadequate schooling had a 1.9 times greater chance of developing HSP (OR = 1.86); and having a previous clinical risk factor resulted in over 21 times the odds of HSP in teenagers and young adults (OR=21.72). Conclusions: These results indicate that HSP may be associated with several determinants. Social (marital status and schooling) and biological (previous clinical risk factors) risk factors were identified. This underscores the importance of guaranteeing women, family support and access to healthcare aiming to guarantee access to pre-natal and delivery care with early diagnosis and treatment, in order to avoid complications and consequently maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality.
Gravidez na adolesc?ncia, principalmente nas faixas et?rias precoces e em grupos populacionais vulner?veis, pode representar um risco ? sa?de pelas intercorr?ncias cl?nicas ou obst?tricas na gestante, pu?rpera e rec?m-nascido, assim como, repercuss?es psicol?gicas e socioecon?micas. Objetivo: avaliar poss?veis associa??es entre S?ndrome Hipertensiva Espec?fica da Gesta??o (SHEG) e caracter?sticas sociodemogr?ficas, do pr?-natal e do parto de adolescentes e adultas jovens, atendidas no Sistema de Sa?de, P?blico e Privado. M?todo: estudo transversal, de base hospitalar, ocorrido em 54 munic?pios da Regi?o Nordeste do Brasil, no per?odo de 2011 e 2012. Os registros utilizados foram obtidos do Inqu?rito Nacional sobre Parto e Nascimento, ?Nascer no Brasil?. Foi estabelecido um modelo te?rico com tr?s n?veis de hierarquia, tendo a SHEG, como vari?vel desfecho. No n?vel distal, foram inclu?das vari?veis sociodemogr?ficas: faixa et?ria; situa??o conjugal; cor da pele; adequa??o da escolaridade com a idade; trabalho remunerado e financiamento para o pr?-natal; No n?vel intermedi?rio foram inclu?das vari?veis do pr?-natal: adequa??o da assist?ncia; antecedentes cl?nicos de risco e uso de fumo nos primeiros 05 meses. No n?vel proximal, ficaram vari?veis referentes ao parto: fonte de pagamento. An?lise multivariada foi realizada, a partir dos resultados das an?lises bivariadas e respectivos p valores, com n?vel de signific?ncia < 0,20, pelo teste de Wald. Resultados: Do total de 2960 adolescentes e adultas jovens, 4,6% (135) apresentaram SHEG. As pu?rperas sem companheiro apresentaram chance 1,5 vezes maior de desenvolver um dos tipos da SHEG (OR= 1,52); aquelas com escolaridade inadequada apresentaram chance 1,9 vezes maior de ocorr?ncia da SHEG (OR = 1,86); ter antecedente cl?nico de risco, aumentou em 21 vezes a chance de ocorrer SHEG nas adolescentes e adultas jovens (OR = 21,72). Conclus?es: os resultados apontaram que m?ltiplos determinantes podem estar associados ? SHEG. Foram identificados fatores de risco social (situa??o conjugal e escolaridade) e biol?gico (antecedentes cl?nicos de risco). Ressalta a import?ncia de garantir ?s mulheres, apoio familiar e assist?ncia ? sa?de, visando garantir o acesso ao pr?-natal e parto com diagn?stico e tratamento precoces, evitando complica??es e morbimortalidade materna e neonatal.

Abstract:
Maternal age on both ends of the reproductive spectrum (teenage and 35+) is associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, as compared with the age range from 20–34 years old. Some of the increase in pregnancy complications in older mothers is caused by underlying age-related health issues such as hypertension and diabetes, the prevalence of which increases linearly with age. The risks associated with young maternal age are more related to nutritional deficits and the fact that pregnant adolescents may still be growing themselves. Poor fetal growth often seen in adolescent pregnancies possibly results from competition for nutrients. Maternal bone loss is also a concern, as adolescent diets are commonly low in calcium and vitamin D. Pregnant adolescents may benefit from calcium supplementation to compensate for the increased need for their own bone growth and should at minimum receive vitamin D supplements, as recommended for all pregnant women.

Abstract:
Background: The upward trend in adolescent hypertension is widely attributed to the adolescent overweight and obesity epidemic. Because of their high-risk status, intervention in overweight adolescents with associated comorbidities, such as hypertension, should be considered. The purpose of this study was to examine association between overweight and hypertension in adolescents. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-analysis and systematic review. The articles were obtained from PubMed, Springer Link, and Google Scholar databases, which published from 2006 to 2020. Keywords used “hypertension” AND “adolescents” AND” obesity” AND “risk factor of obesity” AND “cross-sectional” AND “adjusted odds ratio”. The inclusion criteria were full-text, using English language, and reporting Odds ratio. The study population was adolescents. The intervention was overweight with comparison non overweight. The study outcome was hypertension. The articles were reviewed by PRISMA diagram and analyzed by RevMan 5.3. Results: 8 articles from Ethiopia, Spanyol, Canada, Taiwan, Lithuania, United States, and Malaysia were met criteria. The data analysis found low heterogeneity between groups (I2= 40%; p=0.110), so it used fixed effect model. This meta-analysis study reported that overweight increases the risk of hypertension in adolescents (aOR= 3.32; 95% CI= 3.02 to 3.66; p<0.001). Conclusion: Overweight increases the risk of hypertension in adolescents. Keywords: overweight, hypertension, adolescents Correspondence: Fadhila Firmanurulita.

Abstract:
Fetal intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) results in increased placental resistance to blood flow, fetal hypertension and increased pulsatility [1]. These hemodynamic changes have been shown to lead to vascular remodeling in adolescents and adults [2, 3] but have received little study of its effect during this critical period of vascular formation. Epidemiological studies link IUGR to cardiovascular disease in adulthood [4], but the reason for this is not clearly understood. Here, we examine a large elastic artery for developmental alterations under hypertensive conditions. We hypothesize that fetal hypertension induces abdominal aorta (AA) stiffening in the fetal ovine model of IUGR and that the increased systemic artery stiffness is due to altered extracellular matrix (ECM) composition and structural changes.

Abstract:
A comprehensive understanding of the secular trends in physical activity of children and adolescents is necessary for public health, due to the significant impact of this factor on health. Regardless of body weight, cardiorespiratory endurance in children is associated with multiple metabolic risk factors, and adolescents with low values ​​of cardiorespiratory endurance are more likely to develop hypertension in adulthood, even with a normal body mass index. The level of motor abilities during childhood and adolescence has been identified as a significant factor influencing the overall daily level of physical activity and maintaining normal body weight values ​​in adulthood. Physical education classes should play a key role in improving the physical activity of children and adolescents because they represent a social impact that encompasses the widest part of the population of the appropriate chronological age. Promoting a healthy lifestyle through finding effective ways to maintain physical activity, within the recommended limits for children and adolescents, is essential for the future of the population and has a tremendous economic, social and demographic impact on the future of each country.
