“…Diabetes mellitus prevalence in the general population is 6.7–7.4% in Poland, England and the USA, up to 10.8% in Spain and 18.8% in India, and HTA prevalence is 27.1–34.1% in the USA, Poland and England and up to 42.4–43.1% in Spain and India ( 13 , 15 , 27 , 29 ). In Serbia, the study by Marinkovic et al (33) indicated HTA prevalence of 53%, where 20.1% of the examinees had previously diagnosed HTA and another 32.4% of the examinees had survey high SBP and/or DBP. Somewhat higher HTA prevalence was found in female examinees.…”

SummaryBackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most significant global health problems accompanied by numerous complicatons, with constant increase in the number of affected people. This number is much higher in early phases of disease and patients are mostly asymptomatic, so early detection of CKD is crucial. The aim was examination of the prevalence of CKD in the general population of males in Vojvodina, based on estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urine albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR), and exploring the determinants and awareness of CKD.MethodsThis cross-sectional study included 3060 male examinees from the general population, over 18 years of age, whose eGFR and ACR were calculated, first morning urine specimen examined, arterial blood pressure measured and body mass index calculated. Standard biochemistry methods determined creatinine, urea, uric acid and glucose serum concentrations as well as albumin and creatinine urine levels.ResultsPrevalence of CKD in the adult male population is 7.9%, highest in men over 65 years of age (46.7%), while in the other age groups it is 3.6–12.6%. The largest number of examinees with a positive CKD marker suffer from arterial hypertension (HTA) and diabetes mellitus (DM). Only 1.3% of examinees with eGFR<60 ml/min/1.73 m2 and/or ACR≥ 3 mg/mmol had been aware of positive CKD biomarkers.ConclusionsObtained results show the prevalence of CKD in adult males is 7.9%, HTA and DM are the most important CKD risk factors and the level of CKD awareness is extremely low (1.3%) indicating the necessity for introduction of early stage disease recognition measures, including raising CKD awareness.

“…Most studies in Western countries report considerably lower prevalence of HTN: 19.5% in Canada, 29% in USA, 30% in England [12], 42.6% in Spain [13], as well as in China (32.5%) [14]. Nevertheless, certain districts of Serbia showed higher HTN prevalence (53%) [15]. …”

BackgroundTo estimate the prevalence, awareness, treatment and control of arterial hypertension among adult inhabitants of Krasnoyarsk Krai using the data from Russian multicenter epidemiological study ESSE-RF (Epidemiological Survey of cardiovascular diSEases in different regions of the Russian Federation).MethodsThe study included 1603 subjects 25 to 64 years old selected by means of systemic multistage stratified randomization among urban and rural inhabitants of Krasnoyarsk Krai recruited between February 2014 and June 2014. Office blood pressure (BP) was measured twice with “Omron” automated BP device on the right arm in the sitting position in presence of medical personnel. Arterial hypertension (HTN) was defined as systolic BP of at least 140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP of at least 90 mmHg or self-reported previous elevated BP registration or use of antihypertensive treatment. Treatment efficacy was defined as percentage of patients achieved the target BP level among those who received antihypertensive medications, and HTN control as percentage of people achieved the target BP level among all hypertensives.ResultsThe gender distribution was 652 males (39.4%) and 951 females (60.6%). The average level of systolic BP was 133.4 ± 0.5 mmHg, diastolic BP – 82.9 ± 0.3 mmHg. The average prevalence of HTN was estimated at 49.4% and appeared to be higher than similar parameter based on the data of 10 regions from the ESSE-RF study (44%). The average prevalence of HTN was estimated at 56.3% in males and 43.7% in females. The HTN prevalence in rural community was significantly higher in comparison with urban community (63.4 ± 2.4 vs. 44.2 ± 1.5%, p < 0.01). The average rate of HTN awareness in Krasnoyarsk Krai was 77.9% (average Russian value from ESSE-RF study was 73.1%). The average use of antihypertensive treatment, its efficacy and HTN control in Krasnoyarsk Krai were estimated at 59.5%, 31.6% and 18.8%, respectively.ConclusionsEstimated prevalence of HTN in Krasnoyarsk Krai is higher than the average Russian parameter. The average HTN prevalence among men is higher than in women. The rural inhabitants are more likely to have hypertension compared with urban inhabitants. Despite high levels of HTN awareness and antihypertensive medication intake, the antihypertensive treatment efficacy in Krasnoyarsk Krai appeared to be lower in comparison with average Russian ESSE-RF values.
