Abstract

Resting heart rate (RHR) is an accessible index of sympathetic activity. The objective of this study was to assess the associations between blood pressure (BP) and RHR in children with different waist circumferences (WCs). The data of the Chinese National Survey on Students' Constitution and Health in 2010 were used. A total of 91,762 participates aged 9 to 18 years with complete records were included. RHR was categorised into quintile groups and WC was stratified into small (<-1.035), medium (≥-1.035 and <1.035) and large (≥1.035) groups respectively, after they were converted into age- and sex-specific z-score. Multivariate linear regression revealed that the association between RHR z-score and BP was similar before and after WC was adjusted for. With 1 standard deviation variation in RHR, BP changed from 2.22 (95 % confidence interval (CI): 1.51, 2.93) to 3.58 mmHg (95 % CI: 2.54, 4.62) in small WC group and 1.83 (95 % CI: 1.10, 2.56) to 4.23 mmHg (95 % CI: 3.38, 5.09) in large WC group respectively.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 July 2014.
All research outputs
#18,375,064
of 22,758,963 outputs
Outputs from European Journal of Pediatrics
#3,104
of 3,686 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#162,501
of 226,959 outputs
Outputs of similar age from European Journal of Pediatrics
#34
of 45 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,758,963 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,686 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.6. This one is in the 6th percentile – i.e., 6% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 226,959 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 45 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
