Abstract:
Objective To study the influencing factors of primary hypertension by investigating its prevalence in elderly patients of Deang nationality.Methods Nine hundred and thirty-nine elderly patients of Deang nationality were divided into hypertension group (n =353),prehypertension group (n=377) and control group (n=209).Their physical examination data were recorded and their blood pressure was measured.Results The detection rate of hypertension was significantly lower in elderly patients of Deang nationality than in those of the other nationalities in our country with their age ≥60 years (37.6% vs 49.0%,P<0.05).The detection rate of hypertension,isolated systolic hypertension and prehypertension increased with the increasing age (P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a cross interaction between economic level and alcohol drinking (P<0.05) and a positive correlation of BMI,age,gender,divorce or widow,smonking,high salt diet with hypertension (P<0.05).Conclusion The detection rate of hypertension is lower in elderly patients of Deang nationality than in those of the other nationalities in our country.Economic level,alcohol drinking,BMI,age,gender,divorce or widow,smoking,high salt and fat diet are the major risk factors for hypertension.However,regular eating of vegetables can reduce the risk of hypertension.
