Curious how pediatric hypertension shapes cardiovascular and kidney health later in life? Don’t miss our @asnkidney.bsky.social session on Thursday @asouth-neph.bsky.social Tammy Brady
and Joyce Samuel. #KidneyWeek
@ishbp.bsky.social @theisn.org @ipna.bsky.social @hypertensioncanada.bsky.social
Fewer than 1 in 4 kids get their blood pressure checked.
McMaster's @rahulchanchlani.bsky.social is leading a novel pilot study to change that – and help prevent serious health issues later in life.

New McMaster-led study in @lancetchildadol.bsky.social finds kids with high blood pressure are 3x more likely to develop serious kidney disease & underscores the need for early detection and management of hypertension in youth.

We used @icesontario.bsky.social databases to understand the long-term kidney outcomes and health care utilization among children with hypertension.
here is the link to both papers:

A special milestone — two papers published in Lancet journals on the same day! Thrilled to share that our work on pediatric hypertension was published today in @lancetchildadol.bsky.social and Lancet Regional health Americas Journal.
Thanks so much @hswapnil.medsky.social. @theisn.org @macupediatrics.bsky.social @ishbp.bsky.social
