* Association of modifiable lifestyle behaviors with hypertension by various body mass index categories in Tianjin province of China: a cross-sectional study. |
- The present study was conducted to identify the difference of the relationship between lifestyle behaviors with hypertension (HTN) by various body mass index (BMI) categories. A cross-sectional study was conducted among Tianjin urban communities. A total of 26 438 subjects were randomly selected. The authors evaluated associations of lifestyle behaviors with HTN among normal, overweight, and obese adults using a hierarchical logistic model considering the gross domestic product of residence as socioeconomic proxy. A positive association was found between BMI and the risk of HTN among male and female subjects. Current smoking was associated with a higher risk of HTN in overweight (odds ratio [OR] = 1.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.04-1.36) and obese groups (OR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.03-1.53). There were statistically significant associations of current drinking with risk of HTN in normal weight (OR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.01-1.31) and overweight groups (OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.07-1.40). The prevention of overweight and obesity is important in preventing HTN. Additionally, adherence to healthy lifestyle is associated with less risk of HTN in various BMI categories. |
