Media Advisory: Mayo Clinic Study Shows Strong Link Between Systolic Blood Pressure and Risk of Stroke
What: People with systolic (top number) blood pressure above 140 mm Hg have a significantly increased risk of building up stroke-causing deposits in their aorta, according to a new Mayo Clinic study
The study results, published this week in Circulation, show that an increase of 10 mm Hg in systolic blood pressure corresponds to a 31 percent greater chance of complex aortic atherosclerosis.
