 Report of the Working Group on Research on Hypertension During Pregnancy
Because of the clear public health concerns engendered by hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and the urgency of providing new directions in research, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), with input from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) convened a Working Group on Research on Hypertension During Pregnancy.
Preeclampsia was the focus of most of the Working Group's discussion because it is the most common of the hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, and is associated with the highest rate of acute maternal and infant mortality and morbidity.
Preeclampsia is the most common hypertensive disorder during pregnancy, affecting an estimated 5-8% of pregnant women annually in the United States, and has the greatest effect on maternal and infant outcome.

 Want hypertension? Hurry up!
Black men and women in the highest TUI groups were about twice as likely to develop high blood pressure as black men and women in the lowest TUI groups.  White men in the highest group were more than three times as likely to become hypertensive as white men in the lowest group.
This pioneer study examined the relationship between the feeling of being pressed for time and impatience with the development of hypertension in young urban adults.  Time urgency/impatience (TUI) is a major component of so-called Type A behavior patterns.  Other characteristics of Type A are competitiveness, hostility, tenseness and aggressiveness.
TUI is related to a poor health-risk profile that includes smoking, drinking, high hostility levels and a lack of social support – most of which are related to hypertension, Yan says.  It’s also conceivable that stressful work or home environment, anxiety, hostility, excessive alcohol consumption and other factors may aggravate the sense of TUI.
