Systolic blood pressure is the amount of pressure that blood exerts

while the heart beats

Explanation:

Blood pressure of the heart is the pressure by which heart pumps blood through the arteries. Since the blood flow through the heart and arteries is pulsatile, there are two heart blood pressures: systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Normal systolic pressure is about  120 mmHg.

Diastolic blood pressure is the pressure of the blood between heartbeats (when heart is not active, relaxed). Normal diastolic blood pressure is about  80 mmHg.

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
