“…There are few studies published thus far analyzing the distribution of systemic arterial hypertension among groups of Brazilian workers 1,2,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 . The vast ma-jority consists of cross-sectional studies that report distribution of arterial pressure and HBP prevalence in circumscribed occupational groups.…”

“…Uma tendência para a associação bruta entre as variáveis referentes ao baixo nível sócio-econômico e hipertensão arterial foi descrita em estudos (CARVALHO et al, 1983;LOLIO et al, 1993;FUCHS et al, 1994;PICCINI & VICTORA, 1994;KLEIN et al, 1995). Verificaram-se, também, em estudos envolvendo populações de municípios ou grupos com determinadas características (somente obesos, por exemplo), associações entre variáveis biológicas (idade, sexo, raça, índice de massa corporal, diabetes mellitus, índice cintura/quadril, história familiar de hipertensão) e variáveis ambientais (abuso de álcool, tabagismo, estresse, sedentarismo, tempo de trabalho) com hipertensão arterial (CARVALHO et al, 1983;REGO et al, 1990;FUCHS et al, 1994;PICCINI & VICTORA, 1994;CHOR, 1998;GUS et al, 1998;TRINDADE et al, 1998;CORDEIRO & LIMA FILHO, 1999;CERCATO et al, 2000).…”
