Abstract:
Objective To investigate the association between the combination of different health?related behaviors and the risk of stroke in people with hypertension. Methods The data in this study were obtained from the China National Stroke Screening Survey (CNSSS). The case group was the people with hypertension who were also diagnosed as the first?ever stroke cases (total stroke and ischemic stroke) during 2013-2014 screening period. Their corresponding controls (1∶3 frequency?matched for age group and urban/rural ratio) were randomly selected from individuals with hypertension without stroke. The information on demographic data, stroke history, influence factors and health?related behaviors (non?smoking, normal body mass index maintenance and physical activity) was obtained using standardized face?to?face questionnaires. Univariate analysis included t?test and Chi?square test. Multivariate analysis included unconditional logistic regression. Results There were 603 total stroke cases (1 909 controls) and 536 ischemic stroke cases (1 608 controls) in men with hypertension, and 600 total stroke cases (1 800 controls) and 534 ischemic stroke cases (1 602 controls) in women with hypertension. We found that women with three health?related behaviors had lower risk of total stroke ( OR=0.29, 95%CI : 0.11-0.79) and ischemic stroke ( OR=0.28, 95%CI : 0.10-0.77). Only the combination of non?smoking and physical activity was significantly associated with the decreased risk of total stroke ( OR=0.30, 95%CI : 0.11-0.78) and ischemic stroke ( OR=0.32, 95%CI : 0.12-0.87). We had not found significant association between the combination of different health?related behaviors and risk of total stroke and ischemic stroke (P>0.05) in men. Conclusion This study indicated that health?related behavior intervention might be more effectively to prevent stroke in women with hypertension, especially the smoking control and physical activity.
