A new study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association has found that if one spouse or partner in a heterosexual couple has high blood pressure, the other partner often does too. The study examined couples in the U.S., England, China, and India and found that in many older couples, both husband and wife had high blood pressure. The association between couples' blood pressure status was stronger in China and India, possibly due to cultural factors that emphasize sticking together as a family. The findings suggest the potential for couple-based approaches to diagnose and manage high blood pressure. [Extracted from the article]
