Pre-hypertension is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors, incident CVD and CVD mortality. Understanding determinants of pre-hypertension especially in low income countries is a pre-requisite for improved prevention and control.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>METHODS<\/strong><br \/>\nData were analyzed for 4142 persons aged 18 years and older with BP measured in a community cross sectional survey in Uganda. The prevalence of pre-hypertension was estimated and a number of risk factors e.g. smoking, use of alcohol, overweight, obesity, physical activity, sex, age, marital status, place of residence, and consumption of vegetables and fruits were compared among different groups (normotension, pre-hypertension, and hypertension) using bivariate and multivariable logistic regression.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>RESULTS<\/strong><br \/>\nThe age standardized prevalence of normal blood pressure was 37.6%, pre-hypertension 33.9%, hypertension 28.5% and raised blood pressure 62%. There was no difference between the prevalence of hypertension among women compared to men (28.9% versus 27.9%). However, the prevalence of pre-hypertension was higher among men (41.6%) compared to women (29.4%). Compared to people with normal blood pressure, the risk of pre-hypertension was increased by being 40 years and above, smoking, consumption of alcohol, not being married, being male and being overweight or obese. Compared to pre-hypertension, hypertension was more likely if one was more than 40 years, had infrequent or no physical activity, resided in an urban area, and was obese or overweight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>CONCLUSIONS<\/strong><br \/>\nMore than one in three of adults in this population had pre-hypertension. Preventive and public health interventions that reduce the prevalence of raised blood pressure need to be implemented.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","mots_cles":[],"class_list":["post-62137","resume","type-resume","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"adresse":"","annee":"2013","mois":"11","numero":"13:1","page":"101","auteurs":[{"ID":62135,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 09:09:01","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 08:09:01","post_content":"","post_title":"Fred Nuwaha","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"fred-nuwaha","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 09:09:01","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 08:09:01","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/fred-nuwaha\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":62136,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 09:09:01","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 08:09:01","post_content":"","post_title":"Geofrey Musinguzi","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"geofrey-musinguzi","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 09:09:01","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 08:09:01","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/geofrey-musinguzi\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"sources":[{"ID":10833,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-03 18:28:06","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-03 17:28:06","post_content":"","post_title":"BMC cardiovascular disorders","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"bmc-cardiovascular-disorders","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-03 18:28:06","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-03 17:28:06","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/source\/bmc-cardiovascular-disorders\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"source","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.6 (Yoast SEO v23.6) -
