Abstract:
Objective To investigate the endothelial dysfunction in pre-hypertension and its influencing factors.Methods A total of 373 youth were divided as the subjects into hypertension group (HBP group),prehypertension group (PHT group) and normal blood pressure group (NBP group).Endothelial function was assessed based on carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV).Results IMT and baPWV in PHT group were higher than those in NBP group (P<0.05),but did not reach the significant difference when compared with HBP group (P>0.05).Compared with HBP,the levels of FMD in PHT group significantly increased (P< 0.05);however,no difference was observed in comparison with NBP group (P>0.05).In the early stage of hypertension,diastolic BP (β=-0.120,P<0.05) and body mass index (β=-0.115,P<0.05) were negatively correlated with FMD;diastolic BP (β=0.146,P<0.05),2-hour glucose (β=0.147,P<0.05),high-density lipoprotein cholestrol (β=0.150,P<0.05),and waist-hip ratio (β=0.126,P<0.05) showed a positive correlation with IMT.baPWV was correlated with systolicBP (β=0.358,P<0.01),waist circumference (β=0.254,P<0.05),fasting glucose (β=0.155,P<0.05),postprandial 2 h blood glucose (β =0.152,P <0.05),uric acid (β =0.206,P < 0.05),and C-reactive protein (β=0.099,P<0.05).Corclusion Our study shows that endothelial dysfunction may exist in the prehypertensive young,and several cardiovascular risks contribute to its development in the early stage of hypertension.
