Therefore, determination of high blood pressure is depending on normal blood pressure of different ethnics.In the present study BP of 704 randomly selected subjects aged 18 year and over including 336 male and 368 female were measured in the city of Mashhad.
The results showed that in the studied population, systolic (S), diastolic (D), and mean (M) BP were 125.44+17.83,, 82.67±12.05, and 95,93±12.72 mmHg respectively, SBP, DBP and MBP in female subjects were significantly lower than male subjects (p<0.001 for all cases), There were significant positive correlation between SBP, DBP and MBP with both age and body mass index (EMI). However, there was not any correlation between blood pressure and degree of exercise habit among studied population.
