Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The studies about that hypertension commonly associated with dyslipidemia and that dyslipidemic hypertension increased mortality compared with hypertension only and dyslipidemia only, suggests an important clinical entity. Therefore, this study aimed to identify prevalence and describe potential insulin resistance of dyslipidemic hypertension, and compare about them with two other groups(dyslipidemia only, hypertension only). METHODS: The data in this study was analyzed from 1,296 persons who had visited Health examination center in Ewha Womans University Mok-dong Hospital from Jan. to April, 1996. Prevalence of dylipidemia, hypertension and dislipidemic hypertension were measured. Average age, and frequency of male, obesity and NIDDM in three groups were measured. Odds ratios of sex, obesity, smoking, and DM according to two age group consisting of persons before and after 50 years were calculated for three groups. RESULTS: Frequency of dyslipidemia only was 27% and of hypertension only was 8%.; conjoint frequency(dyslipidemic hypertension) was 7%, which is 1.5 times greater than expected value(4.7%) if the two diseases were independent. In characteristics for age, sex, obesity and NIDDM, All three groups(dyslipidemic hypertension, dyslipidemia only, hypertension only) w-normal subjects. Dyslipidemic hypertension was more likely to be obese and had a greater frequency of NIDDM than two other group(dyslipidemia only, hypertension only). Odds ratio was contrasted with three groups for sex, smoking, obesity, NIDDM stratified by age to more indentify association with insulin resistance. Sex was associated with male in two groups(dyslipidemia only, dyslipidemic hypertension) of younger group and dyslipudemia only group of older group, but associated with female in hypertension only and dyslipidemic hypertension of older group. Smoking was associated with dyslipidemia only group of younger group. Obesity was associated with increased odds of dyslipidemia only(2.03) and hypertension only(2.02), dyslipidemic hypertension (4.38) in younger group, and dyslipidemic hypertension(2.24) in older group, but associated with decreased odds with dyslipidemia only(0.56). NIDDM was associated with increased odds of dyslipidemia only(2.39) and dyslipidemic hypertension(3.32) in youger group. CONCLUSIONS: Dyslipidemic hypertension is common and more often than would be dictated by chance alone, which is consistent with a distinct syndrome. Dyslipidemia and hypertension were associated with potential insulin resistant states of obesity and DM in this study. So, treatment of dislipidemic hypertension should focus on weight control and exercise, which increase insulin sensitivity.
