Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo study the relation between blood pressure level in prehypertensives and multiple metabolic disorders.
METHODSBased on the populations in Jiangsu province from the project of Multiple Metabolic Disorders and Metabolic Syndrome, a case-control study was conducted including 585 cases of isolated systolic prehypertensive,746 cases of diastolic-systolic prehypertensive, 340 cases of isolated diastolic prehypertensive and 1755 individuals with normal blood pressure.
RESULTSThe occurrence of triglyceride(TG), body mass index(BMI) and waist circumference(WC) disorders were significantly higher in the three case groups than in the normal blood pressare group. Among case groups, 50% of them had at least one more metabolic abnormalities as compared to 35% in the controls.
CONCLUSIONAmong patients in prehypertensive stage, TG disorder was most popular in multiple metabolic disorders. Prehypertensive was associated with WC, BMI and age, indicating that there had already been collections of cardiovascular risk factors in the prehypertensive stage.
