Abstract

Context: Hypertension (HTN) is a well-known modifiable risk factor for Cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic kidney disease and Mortality. Positive effects of Blood Pressure (BP) lowering for prevention of CVD and death have been documented in several metaanalyses of randomized controlled trials. Evidence Acquisition: This review focuses on the key findings derived from the Tehran lipid and glucose study (TLGS) papers on different aspects of BP and HTN. Results: A prevalence of 23% for HTN has been reported in the TLGS population, aged 20 years. Over a decade long follow-up, the crude incidence rate (95% CI) of new-onset HTN defined as systolic BP (SBP) 140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP (DBP) 90 mmHg, and not using antihypertensive medication was 33. 63 (32. 0-35. 3) per 1000 person-years. Age, baseline SBP and body mass index were significant risk factors for development of isolated systolic HTN; regarding isolated diastolic HTN, baseline DBP and waist circumference were recognized as important risk factors whereas age, female gender and marriage were shown to be protective factors. SBP decreased significantly in both diabetic and non-diabetic participants; DBP showed a non-significant decrease in diabetic men and a statistically significant decrease in non-diabetic men. Among women, both those with and without diabetes (DM) generally experienced statistically significant decreases in DBP. Cox proportional hazard models showed that neither SBP nor DBP were associated with incident DM in the total population and in either gender, separately. All BP components were associated with CVD and all-cause Mortality in the middle-aged population. Contribution of HTN to cerebrovascular events was also documented in the TLGS participants, aged 50 years. Conclusions: Several important findings regardingBP/HTNhavebeenderivedfromthe TLGS. According to data regarding the prevalence and incidence of preHTN and HTN and their contribution to Cardiovascular morbidity and Mortality in the TLGS population as a representative sample of Tehranian population, it is recommended that interventions be prioritized for lifestyle modifications for the prevention and appropriate management of preHTN/HTN.
