Hypertension Society and Culture



In the United States, researchers note that factors such as modernization, education, and structural assimilation were correlated with favourable Blood Pressure profiles. The prevalence of hypertension among Hispanic Americans appears to increase with the process of acculturation and is inversely correlated with socioeconomic status. Indeed, acculturation and language proficiency in this ethnic group can be directly correlated with the incidence of diabetes and associated morbidities, which have implications for cardiovascular health. For example, among Mexican Americans, acculturation and age are strong predictors of hypertension as opposed to economic status. Based on these findings, Mexican American women who are English proficient and had healthcare coverage were more likely to be screened for heart disease
