Pages

Abstract

 Background: Pre-hypertension is known as the Precursor of hypertension. We could Prevent or delay hypertension by controlling Pre-hypertension. Objectives: In this study, we investigated the Prevalence of Pre-hypertension and its risk factors in an Iranian population, East of Iran, in 2014. Patients and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 1280 subjects living in Birjand, East of Iran in 2014. After explaining about the project, a questionnaire containing demographic characteristics and clinical backgrounds was filled out by all subjects. Participants were classified as Pre-hypertension (PHTN) if systolic blood Pressure was 120-139 mmHg or if diastolic blood Pressure was 80-89 mmHg. Data were analyzed by chi-square test and multiple logistic regression using SPSS (version 22). P < 0. 05 was considered as statistically significant. Results: Among 1286 participants, 21. 4% had Pre-hypertension. Results showed that Pre-hypertension, diabetes mellitus (DM) and smoking were more Prevalent among men than women (P < 0. 001), while Prevalence of dyslipidemia was more observed in women (P < 0. 001). In addition, the risk of Pre-hypertension was more in men (OR = 2. 9), overweight (OR = 3. 7), and obese (OR = 5. 6) subjects. Smoking cigarette showed a protective effect (OR = 0. 4). Conclusions: Pre-hypertension was more Prevalent among men and obese subjects. Since Pre-hypertension progresses to hypertension and increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, it needs more attention by public health policy makers to change people’ s lifestyle.
