Life-course body mass index trajectories and blood pressure in mid life in two British birth cohorts: stronger associations in the later-born generation

Life-course body mass index trajectories and blood pressure in mid life in two British birth cohorts: stronger associations in the later-born generation

Background: Little is known about the impact of recent increases in obesity and more rapid gains in body mass index (BMI) on cardiovascular risk factors. We investigated life-course BMI trajectories associations with adult blood pressure (BP) across two generations.
