“…The results of this study indicated that overweight or obese people (BMI ≥ 25) were more likely to have hypertension than those with normal weight. This result was in line with previous studies indicating higher BMI was positively associated with blood pressure and the development of hypertension ( 58 – 62 ). Results from a meta-analysis study with 25 randomized clinical trials showed that losing one kilogram in body weight was associated with a 1.05 mmHg and 2.05 mmHg reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respectively ( 63 ).…”

BackgroundHypertension is a major cause of death and disability worldwide. Enhancing health literacy (HL) may help to alleviate the risk of hypertension and its burden. However, evidence on the association between HL and hypertension and potential mechanisms remain to be explored.ObjectivesThis study examined the association between HL and hypertension; and explored whether body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (PBF), and visceral fat (VF) were mediators of this association in people who resided in rural and suburban areas in Vietnam.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted from 1st July to 31st December 2019, involving 1655 residents and exploring participants' sociodemographic characteristics, HL, health-related behaviors, comorbidities, body composition, and blood pressure (BP). People with systolic BP ≥ 140 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥ 90 mmHg or using antihypertensive medication were classified as having hypertension. Multiple logistic regression and mediation analyses were used to explore associations.ResultsThe hypertension prevalence was 41.9% (694/1,655). In adjusted models, a higher HL score was associated with a lower hypertension likelihood (OR = 0.96; 95%CI = 0.95–0.97; p < 0.001). Factors associated with a higher odd of hypertension were overweight/obese (OR = 1.69; 95%CI = 1.24–2.29; p = 0.001), high PBF (OR = 2.35; 95%CI = 1.85–2.99; p < 0.001), and high VF (OR = 2.27; 95%CI = 1.63–3.16; p < 0.001). Notably, PBF significantly mediated the association between HL and hypertension (indirect effect, OR = 0.99; 95%CI = 0.98–0.99; p = 0.009; percent mediated = 8.56%). The mediating roles of BMI and VF were not found.ConclusionThe prevalence of hypertension was relatively high. People with better HL were less likely to have hypertension. The association between HL and hypertension was partially explained by PBF. Strategic approaches are required to improve people's HL and body fat which further help to manage hypertension in rural and suburban areas.

Hypertension is a major public health issue in Indonesia due to its high prevalence and the fact that it is a risk factor for heart disease, kidney failure, and stroke. Age, gender, family history, alcohol consumption, smoking, iodine consumption, physical activity, and obesity are all risk factors for hypertension. Adults with undiagnosed hypertension can face an increased risk of morbidity and mortality if it is left untreated. Early detection and knowledge about the risk factors for hypertension in adults are important. This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the risk factors for hypertension in adults in Mapanget Village, North Minahasa. The sample size was 384 respondents, and the sample was obtained using convenience sampling. Data were collected using an online questionnaire and analyzed using a Chi-square test. The study found a relationship between hypertension and family history (p = 0.01), obesity (p = 0.03), smoking (p = 0.01), physical activity (p = 0.01), and alcohol consumption (p = 0.01). This study recommends people live a healthy lifestyle by controlling their blood pressure and weight, not drinking alcohol, not smoking, and engaging in physical activities that are appropriate given their abilities. Abstrak Faktor Risiko Hipertensi pada orang Dewasa yang Tinggal di Pedesaan Minahasa. Hipertensi merupakan masalah kesehatan yang utama di Indonesia karena prevalensinya yang tinggi dan menyebabkan komplikasi seperti penyakit jantung, gagal ginjal, dan stroke. Faktor risiko yang berhubungan dengan kejadian hipertensi yaitu usia, jenis kelamin, riwayat keluarga, asupan alkohol, merokok, asupan konsumsi yodium, aktivitas fisik, dan obesitas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis faktor risiko yang berhubungan dengan kejadian hipertensi pada usia dewasa di Desa Mapanget, Minahasa Utara. Jenis penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif korelasional dengan desain cross sectional. Sampel dalam penelitian ini berjumlah 384 orang. Instrumen penelitian menggunakan kuesioner. Analisis data menggunakan Chi square. Hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa riwayat keluarga (p = 0,001), obesitas (p = 0,033), merokok (p = 0,005), aktivitas fisik (p = 0,004), dan konsumsi alkohol (p = 0,009) Mimouna hubungan yang signifikan terhadap kejadian hipertensi di Desa Mapanget, Minahasa Utara. Sedangkan jenis kelamin (p = 0,334) tidak berhubungan dengan kejadian hipertensi di Desa Mapanget. Rekomendasi dari penelitian ini adalah agar masyarakat melakukan gaya hidup sehat dengan mengontrol tekanan darah dan berat badan, tidak mengonsumsi alkohol, menghindari rokok, dan melakukan aktivitas fisik sesuai dengan kemampuan fisik.

Background: To understand the prevalent issues and challenges in the provision of care for dyslipidemia and hypertension in Vietnamese adults, quantification of patient journey stages (awareness, screening, diagnosis, treatment, adherence, and control) was performed in this semi-systematic review. Methods: The EMBASE and MEDLINE databases were searched for English articles published between 2010 and 2019. Thesis abstracts, letters to the editor, editorials, case studies, and studies on patient subgroups or nationally unrepresentative studies, were excluded. Articles from Google, the Incidence and Prevalence Database, the World Health Organization, Vietnam’s Ministry of Health, and those suggested by the authors were also included. The last search was run on December 10, 2019 for dyslipidemia and hypertension. Results: A reviewer independently screened 586 retrievals for dyslipidemia and 177 retrievals for hypertension, and extracted data from 2 articles on dyslipidemia and 6 articles on hypertension that were included in the final synthesis. Conclusion: The data generated in this review will help overcome these issues and barriers to patient care in populations with these 2 conditions.
