The article highlights the impact of socioeconomic status (SES) on patients with hypertension. SES is known to affect patients through their behavioral factors like exercise and diet. The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health Wave IV (2007-2009) revealed that lower systolic blood pressure (SBP) was seen in higher household income and married individuals and that this is possible through lowering their resting heart rate.
