“…Several authors [31][32][33] have investigated associations between behavioral factors and hypertension and have proven deleterious effects arising from alcohol abuse 31 , sedentary behavior 32 and excessive sodium intake 33 . In the present study, however, it was not possible to identify associations between these factors and hypertension.…”

ABSTRACT:Objective: To identify the prevalence of hypertension and evaluate the independent effect of central obesity on this outcome in adults living in the municipality of Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo State, Brazil. Methods: Cross-sectional population-based epidemiological study using three stage cluster sampling. The variability introduced in the third stage was corrected by attributing probability weights, resulting in a weighted sample of 2,471 participants. Hypertension was defined according to the disease history, the use of anti-hypertensive drugs or the mean of three consecutive measures, in mm/Hg, ≥ 140 for systolic and ≥ 90 for diastolic blood pressure. Prevalence of hypertension was estimated according to anthropometric, sociodemographic, behavioral and dietetic variables, as well as biochemical dosages and medication use. Crude and adjusted prevalence ratios for central obesity indices were estimated using Poisson regression. All the estimates were calculated taking into account the sampling design effect. Results: The results showed high prevalence of hypertension: 32.8 (males) and 44.5% (females). In the final models, central obesity indexes were consistently associated with the outcome, in both genders. Conclusion: The results pointed out the need of planning health promotion and prevention, in order to control hypertension and central obesity aiming to reduce end-point events like coronary heart disease and stroke.

“…Micronutrient levels are closely related to blood pressure (BP). Many papers have reported that dietary sodium intake is positively correlated with BP 10 , 11 ) and dietary intakes of vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, and calcium are inversely correlated with BP 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ) .

We aimed to examine the effect of micronutrient losses through sweat on blood pressure (BP) among heat-exposed steelworkers. A total of 224 heat-exposed male steelworkers from an ironworks facility were evaluated in July 2012. We measured the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature Index to evaluate the level of heat stress in the workplace. We collected sweat from the workers during an eight-hour work, and then we measured the micronutrients in the sweat. We also measured the BP of each worker. The results revealed that vitamin C, potassium, and calcium losses in sweat were positively correlated with systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure (all P<0.05). A linear stepwise regression analysis revealed that potassium, and calcium losses in sweat adversely affected SBP and DBP (all P<0.05). An analysis of covariance showed that SBP increased when potassium or calcium losses in sweat were >900 mg, or >100 mg, respectively. Further, DBP increased when potassium or calcium losses in sweat were >600 mg or >130 mg, respectively. Therefore, vitamin C, potassium, and calcium losses in sweat may adversely effect BP. To help steelworkers maintain healthy BP, facilities with high temperatures should try to lower environmental temperatures to reduce vitamin C, potassium, and calcium losses in sweat. Additionally, heat-exposed steelworkers may need to increase their dietary intakes of vitamin C, potassium, and calcium. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and support these recommendations.

Shifting paradigm from biomedical to decolonised methods in Inuit public health research in Canada: a scoping review

et al. 2022

BackgroundThe National Inuit Strategy on Research focuses on advancing Inuit governance in research, increasing ownership over data and building capacity. Responding to this call for Inuit self-determination in research, academic researchers should consider cultural safety in research and ways to promote Inuit-led methods.MethodsThis scoping review collated academic literature on public health research in Inuit communities in Canada between 2010 and 2022. A critical assessment of methods used in public health research in Inuit communities examined cultural safety and the use of Inuit-attuned methods. Descriptive and analytical data were summarised in tables and figures. Knowledge user engagement in the research process was analysed with thematic analysis.Results356 articles met the inclusion criteria. Much of the published research was in nutrition and mental health, and few initiatives reported translation into promotion programmes. Almost all published research was disease or deficit focused and based on a biomedical paradigm, especially in toxicology, maternal health and chronic diseases. Recent years saw an increased number of participatory studies using a decolonial lens and focusing on resilience. While some qualitative research referred to Inuit methodologies and engaged communities in the research process, most quantitative research was not culturally safe. Overall, community engagement remained in early stages of co-designing research protocols and interventions. Discussion on governance and data ownership was limited. Recent years saw emerging discussions on these issues. Knowledge user capacity-building was limited to brief training on conventional data collection methods.ConclusionsThe last decade of published public health research has not responded to the National Inuit Strategy on Research. Participatory research is gaining ground, but has not reached its full potential. A shift from biomedical to decolonised methods is slowly taking place, and public health researchers who have not yet embraced this paradigm shift should do so.
