Study questions fruit sugar role in hypertension
Sweet drinks have been linked to a slightly higher risk of developing high blood pressure, but a U.S. study finds that fruit sugar may not be the culprit as found in earlier research.
Researchers followed more than 200,000 men and women for up to 38 years and found that regularly consuming sweetened drinks, either containing sugars or artificially sweetened, was associated with a rise of about 13 percent in the risk of developing high blood pressure.
Carbonated and cola drinks were most strongly linked to a risk for hypertension, but fruit sugar, or fructose, in drinks did not stand out as a driving factor, the group reported in the Journal of General Internal Medicine.

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on the incidence of hypertension or cardiovascular events in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects 3 percent to 7 percent of the general population and is caused by the collapse of the upper airway during sleep, which leads to transient asphyxia, according to background information in the first study. Studies have shown an association between OSA and hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. First-line treatment for patients with symptomatic OSA is CPAP, which acts as a pneumatic splint to keep the upper airway open during sleep and corrects the obstruction.

Rather than being exclusively an adult disease, hypertension affects 3% to 5% of U.S. children. Why is high blood pressure in children a growing problem?
Hypertension in Kids a Growing Problem
The incidence and economic burden associated with hospitalizations for pediatric hypertension in the U.S. has risen markedly, with costs exceeding $3 billion during the course of just one decade, a nationwide survey found.
