Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the trends of weight, blood pressure and serum uric acid levels in college graduates during 2016-2020, so as to provide the evidence for chronic diseases prevention and control in university students.
Methods:A cross sectional study was conducted to collect the data of physical examination of new graduates of Peking University during 2016-2020. It analyzed the differences in the BMI, blood pressure, serum uric acid, prevalence of overweight/obesity, hypertension, and hyperuricemia.
Results:For males, the prevalences of overweight/obesity, hypertension of 2016-2020 and hyperuricemia of 2018-2020 varied significantly ( χ 2=52.94, 37.63, 55.53, P <0.01), but not significant difference of overweight/obesity, hypertension among the four groups of 2016-2019 ( χ 2=6.45, 1.05, P >0.05). The highest prevalences of overweight (29.25%), obesity ( 11.37 %), hypertension (12.60%) and hyperuricemia (43.84%) were observed in the group of 2020. For females, the prevalence of hypertension of 2016-2020 and hyperuricemia of 2018-2020 were significantly different ( χ 2=14.14, 14.59, P <0.01),but not significant difference of hypertension of 2016-2019( χ 2=0.34, P >0.05). The highest prevalences of hypertension (2.35%) and hyperuricemia (13.86%) were both found in the group of 2020.
Conclusion:High prevalence of hypertension and hyperuricemia in college graduates of 2020 suggest unhealthy lifestyle probably has adverse impact on health consequences in young adult students.
