Introduction: In older adults, excess weight is associated with a higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease, several important cancers, and numerous other medical conditions. Several indices such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) are used to classify general. Some studies also reported that WC and WHR is a better indicator of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk than BMI and WHR. Aims and Objective: 1. To estimate the prevalence of obesity among the elderly using three scale viz. BMI, WHR, and WHtR 2. To compare the results of these three-scale used for assessment of obesity 3. To determine the presence of association between obesity and hypertension if any. Material and Methods: For selection of the area, in both the urban and rural areas, the sampling units were enumerated and samples were collected from them. The estimated geriatric population combined in both Urban and Rural areas amounted to 12,220 (7% of geriatric population as per Census 2001), out of which 5% was selected as sample. This came out to be 611 elderly subjects which were selected equally from both urban and rural areas. For assessment of obesity BMI, WHR, and WHtR were measured. Assessment of hypertension was as per JNC classification. Result: Prevalence of obesity as per BMI in the urban area was found to be 40%, whereas that in rural areas was found to be 47.4%. WHR and WHtR showed higher prevalence in rural areas (70%) and also in urban areas (60%). BMI and WHR were significantly associated with hypertensive status of elderly. Conclusion: Anthropometric assessments of obesity like WHR and WHTR are more sensitive indicators of obesity among the elderly. BMI is found to be significantly associated with hypertension as well in the present study. Logistic regression showed that the association of BMI with hypertension was higher than other obesity assessments.

“…HTN was found to be associated with abdominal obesity as defined by waist-hip ratio and WC ( p = 0.000 and p = 0.000, respectively). Previous studies had shown obesity to be an important risk factor for HTN (Dua et al , 2014; Oladoyinbo et al , 2015; Panda et al , 2017). HTN in this study was significantly higher ( p = 0.019) among respondents that consume alcohol and no significant association was observed between DM and HTN ( p = 0.78).…”

Purpose This study was designed to assess the risk factors associated with hypertension (HTN) and diabetes among artisans in Ogun State, Nigeria. Evidences suggest increasing prevalence, incidences and morbidity of diabetes and HTN in Nigeria. However, the purpose of this study is to plan and prioritize effective intervention programs, there is need to provide data on the prevalence and risk factors for HTN and diabetes among local groups. Design/methodology/approach In total 300 apparently healthy artisans who have never been diagnosed of diabetes or HTN were randomly selected from five communities. A structured questionnaire was used in obtaining information on the personal characteristics of the respondents. An adapted dietary habit and lifestyle questionnaire were used to assess the dietary habits and lifestyle of the respondents. The WHO global activity questionnaire was adapted and used to gather information on the physical activity level of the respondents. Random blood glucose, blood pressure and anthropometric measurements were assessed using standard instruments. Chi-square (χ2), correlations and multinomial logistic regression analysis were performed to identify significant determinants of diabetes and HTN. Findings Mean age was 34.8 ± 9.9 and prevalence of diabetes and pre-diabetes were 1 and 4.7 per cent, respectively, while HTN and pre-HTN were 48.0 and 30.3 per cent, respectively. About half (55.7 per cent) of the respondents skip at least a meal daily and 31 per cent snack daily. Most (61.4 per cent) consume alcohol and 65.7 per cent engage in high physical activity. Abdominal obesity was significantly higher among women (p = 0.004). Using the chi-square analysis, age, abdominal obesity and educational status were factors found to be significantly associated with diabetes (p = 0.002; p = 0.007; p = 0.004) while age, gender, abdominal obesity and alcohol consumption had significant association with HTN. Although not statistically significant, respondents were 0.8, 1.0 and 1.1 times more likely to be diabetic with increasing body mass index, waist circumference (WC) and age (odd ratio (OR) = 0.78; confidence intervals (CI): 0.51-1.18; OR = 1.04; CI: 0.89-1.21; OR = 1.06; CI: 0.96-1.18, respectively). Abdominal obesity was significantly associated with HTN (OR = 1.08; CI: 1.03-1.13; p = 0.001). Also, older respondents were 1.1 times more likely of becoming hypertensive (OR = 1.07; CI: 1.02-1.11; p = 0.003). Increased risk of diabetes and HTN was found among respondents with increasing age and WC. Research limitations/implications This study was cross-sectional in design; it cannot be used to establish a cause-effect relationship between diabetes, HTN and the observed variables (anthropometric characteristics, dietary habits and lifestyle risk factors). Because of the few numbers (1 per cent) of respondents identified to be diabetic several important risk factors could not be included in the model. Practical implications An understanding of the risk factors associated with diabetes and HTN among sub-groups in the population will help to plan effective interventions targeted at specific groups. Originality/value The findings of this study show the associated risk factors for diabetes and HTN among artisans in Ogun State.

“…One more study done in Department of Community Medicine, Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru Memorial Medical College, Raipur, Chhattisgarh, India by Panda et al [18] in the year 2017 and it was concluded that there is a rising burden of hypertension among study population and waist hip ratio was strongly associated with hypertension. From the various studies conducted in the direction [19][20][21][22][23] results seem to be compatible with the outcome of our study, though smaller sample size and lake of gender wise data, have been the major limitations of our study.…”

Background: According to the various studies done previously, hypertension may starts since adolescence. Therefore early detection is always good to check its progression. Methods: A case-control observational study based on school-going adolescents of both sexes between the age group of 10 to 16 years was done among 30 control and 30 overweight children. Their blood pressure, pulse pressure and anthropometric measurement were done according to the standard protocols. Unpaired student t-test was applied to compare the various parameters.Results: We were found that the significant difference between antropometric and blood parameters values of normal and control subjects with p-value 0.001. Conclusion: Outcome of our study suggested that most of the overweight students were hypertensive's and might be at a risk of getting obsessed and will prone to future risk of cardiac disorders.
