Low Diastolic Blood Pressure and Risk of Ischemic Colitis in the Women's Health Initiative Cohort
The incidence rate of IC in older women was twice as high in those with a history of cardiovascular disease and was associated with low diastolic blood pressure and multiclass antihypertensive treatment. Dietary fiber intake was associated with lower risk. Black women had lower risk of IC compared with White women.
