Blood pressure and social class in a Jamaican community.

W W Dressler1, G A Grell, P N Gallagher, F E Viteri.   

Abstract

A study of social factors and blood pressure was conducted in a Jamaican community among a sample of 199 persons ages 30 to 50. After controlling for obesity, age, and respondent tension (and other covariates), interaction effects of social class x sex for systolic and diastolic blood pressure were found. Blood pressure increased with increasing social class for males and decreased with increasing social class for females.
