Abstract:
Objective To learn the prevalence and related factors of hypertension and prehypertension among adults in Xishan District of Wuxi City, and to provide scientific evidence for further prevention and control. Methods Questionnaire survey and physical examination were conducted among the 5472 community residents aged 18 and above who were selected from eight towns in Xishan District by multistage stratified random cluster sampling. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was used to study the risk factors of hypertension and prehypertension. Results A total of 5472 questionnaires were issued and 5111 valid questionnaires were received, with a response rate of 93.40%. The prevalence rate of prehypertension was 44.00% , and the standardized rate was 43.72%. The prevalence rate of hypertension was 24.09% , and the standardized rate was 23.17% . Logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR=1.027, 95% CI:1.021~1.033), male (OR=1.894, 95%CI: 1.601~2.241), waistline (OR=1.062, 95%CI: 1.049~1.075) and BMI (OR=1.271, 95%CI: 1.106~1.461) were risk factors for prehypertension. Furthermore, age (OR=1.101, 95%CI:1.093~1.109), male (OR=1.467, 95%CI: 1.157~1.860), waistline (OR=1.103, 95%CI: 1.086~1.120) and BMI (OR=1.735, 95% CI: 1.449 ~ 2.078) , daily drinking (OR=1.522, 95% CI: 1.066 ~ 2.174) and family history of hypertension (OR=2.823, 95%CI: 2.305~3.459) were risk factors for hypertension. High family income, more physical exercise and fruit were the protection of prehypertension and hypertension. Conclusion Male, advanced age, overweight or obesity were the focus of prevention and treatment of hypertension. Prehypertension screening and healthy lifestyle were beneficial to reduce the risk of hypertension.
