AbstractExtreme temperature events related to climate change may impact blood pressure (BP). African American populations are disproportionately affected by temperature extremes due to structural inequities. We examined the association between ambient outdoor temperature and BP among participants in JHS, a cohort of African American adults residing in the tri-county area of Jackson, Mississippi.

AbstractOver the past 3 decades, a substantial body of high-quality evidence has guided the diagnosis and management of elevated blood pressure (BP) in the outpatient setting. In contrast, there is a lack of comparable evidence for guiding the management of elevated BP in the acute care setting, resulting in significant practice variation.
