Several recent studies have shown differences in the risk profile and outcome of cardiovascular diseases between men and women, with a dearth of data from African populations. This study aimed to examine gender differences in a group of patients from Cameroon hospitalized with a hypertensive crisis.\n                    <jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>\n                    . We conducted a cross\u2010sectional study from June 2018 until June 2019. The criteria to define a hypertensive crisis (HC) were systolic and\/or diastolic blood pressure should be \u2265180\/110\u2009mmHg. We compared the clinical presentation and outcome of males versus females.\n                    <jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Out of the 1536 patients admitted, 95 (6.2%) had an HC. There were 49 (51.6%) men. There was no significant age difference between men and women (52.7 years vs. 49.3 years,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.28). Alcohol consumption (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; 0.0001), previous stroke (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.04), and smoking (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.03) were significantly higher in men compared to women. Men had a higher proportion of psychomotor agitation (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.05). There was an equal proportion of men and women with hypertensive emergencies. Although acute left ventricular failure was most frequent in women (46.4% vs 42.9%), cerebral infarction (14.3% vs 17.9%), and acute coronary syndrome (0% vs 7.1%) were higher in men, the differences were not statistically significant (all\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &gt; 0.05). Case fatality was also higher in men compared to women but the difference was not statistically significant.\n                    <jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Men admitted for an HC had a significantly higher cardiovascular risk burden and higher psychomotor agitation. However, there were no significant differences in the types of hypertensive emergencies and outcomes between men and women.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2022\/3062526","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,28]],"date-time":"2022-06-28T19:05:09Z","timestamp":1656443109000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Gender Differences in Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Clinical Presentation, and Outcome of Patients Admitted with a Hypertensive Crisis at the Buea Regional Hospital, Cameroon"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2022","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2617-6712","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Clovis","family":"Nkoke","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ahmadou Musa","family":"Jingi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean Jacques","family":"Noubiap","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Denis","family":"Teuwafeu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4455-6532","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cyrille","family":"Nkouonlack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1810-3716","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ronald","family":"Gobina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Siddikatou","family":"Djibrilla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Abas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anastase","family":"Dzudie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_12_1_2","first-page":"143","article-title":"Executive summary: heart disease and stroke statistics--2016 update: a report from the American heart association","volume":"127","author":"Mozaffarian D.","year":"2016","journal-title":"Circulation"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(04)17018-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0140-6736(98)10279-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/STROKEAHA.108.542894"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.CIR.0000039105.49749.6F"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ehj.2004.06.038"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.hyp.0000107251.49515.c2"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/hypertensionaha.114.04012"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIR.0000000000000350"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/s0066-782x2004001400004"},{"key":"e_1_2_12_11_2","first-page":"82","article-title":"Hypertensive crises at the hospital emergency services.
