The interaction between general or abdominal obesity and hypertension on the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus: a cross-sectional analysis in Iranian adults from the RaNCD cohort study. BMC Public Health 2024; 24:752. [PMID: 38462604 PMCID: PMC10926646 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-18290-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Interactions between risk factors may influence disease severity. Knowing this relationship is important for preventive interventions and disease control. The purpose of this study was to determine the interactions effects of obesity and hypertension on the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS The data of 9,283 adults 35 to 65 years were examined from the cohort study of Ravansar Non-Communicable Disease (RaNCD). Waist circumference (WC) was used to identify both general and abdominal obesity based on body mass index (BMI). To assess the interaction between hypertension and obesity (general/abdominal) and the risk of T2DM, the additive interaction was calculated. RESULTS The adjusted odds ratios for T2DM were 2.38 (1.67, 3.41) in men and 4.02 (2.47, 6.47) in women for the combinations of hypertension and abdominal obesity. The adjusted odds ratios for T2DM were 2.53 (1.63, 3.82) in men and 2.66 (1.92, 3.70) in women for the combinations of hypertension and general obesity. The results of the additive interaction indicators were inconsistent with gender. The relative excess risk due to interaction (interaction between hypertension and central obesity) (RERI), attributable proportion due to interaction (AP) and synergy index (SI) were0.27 (-1.01, 1.54), 0.11 (-0.41, 0.63) and 1.23 (0.41, 3.68) in male and were 0.61 (-1.12, 2.33), 0.23 (0.08, 0.37) and 1.26 (0.60, 2.61) in female, respectively. CONCLUSION General/abdominal obesity and hypertension have a synergistic effect on the risk of T2DM. The recommendation for preventing T2DM is lifestyle modification. Large longitudinal studies are necessary to investigate causal relationships.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recent records by the World Health Organization show that hypertension is more prevalent in Africa than in other parts of the world, and remains the foremost common risk factor for cardiovascular-related diseases, stroke, renal diseases, and death. However, little is known about the risk factors for hypertension by people from rural areas, especially among middle-aged adults. Therefore, the study examined the knowledge of the risk factors for hypertension among middle-aged adults in rural areas of Anambra state, Nigeria. MATERIALS, AND METHOD Focus group discussions were used to collect data from 40 middle-aged adults (20 males and 20 females). Two key themes stood out from the data collection guides. These are "awareness of hypertension and its' symptoms" and "knowledge of risk factors of hypertension". RESULTS The findings showed that the participants were aware of hypertension but lacked in-depth knowledge of the risk factors for the disease. Most participants did not believe that intake of certain foods like starchy foods and excess alcohol consumption could lead to one being hypertensive. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION There is a need for social workers to sensitize and enlighten the middle-aged adults in the study area on the risk factors for the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to develop a risk-scoring model for hypertension among Africans. METHODS In this study, 4413 stroke-free controls were used to develop the risk-scoring model for hypertension. Logistic regression models were applied to 13 risk factors. We randomly split the dataset into training and testing data at a ratio of 80:20. Constant and standardized weights were assigned to factors significantly associated with hypertension in the regression model to develop a probability risk score on a scale of 0 to 1 using a logistic regression model. The model accuracy was assessed to estimate the cutoff score for discriminating hypertensives. RESULTS Mean age was 59.9±13.3 years, 56.0% were hypertensives, and 8 factors, including diabetes, age ≥65 years, higher waist circumference, (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2, lack of formal education, living in urban residence, family history of cardiovascular diseases, and dyslipidemia use were associated with hypertension. Cohen κ was maximal at ≥0.28, and a total probability risk score of ≥0.60 was adopted for both statistical weighting for risk quantification of hypertension in both datasets. The probability risk score presented a good performance-receiver operating characteristic: 64% (95% CI, 61.0-68.0), a sensitivity of 55.1%, specificity of 71.5%, positive predicted value of 70.9%, and negative predicted value of 55.8%, in the test dataset. Similarly, decision tree had a predictive accuracy of 67.7% (95% CI, 66.1-69.3) for the training set and 64.6% (95% CI, 61.0-68.0) for the testing dataset. CONCLUSIONS The novel risk-scoring model discriminated hypertensives with good accuracy and will be helpful in the early identification of community-based Africans vulnerable to hypertension for its primary prevention.

Socioeconomic and behavioral determinants of non-compliance with physician referrals following community screening for diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia: a mixed-methods study. Sci Rep 2023; 13:20554. [PMID: 37996479 PMCID: PMC10667337 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-47168-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Early detection of undiagnosed diabetes, hypertension or hyperlipidemia through screening could reduce healthcare costs resulting from disease complications. To date, despite ample research on the factors linked to the uptake of community health screening programs, little attention has been directed at delayed or incomplete follow-up after positive outcomes are identified in community screening tests. This study aimed to investigate the socioeconomic and behavioral factors that influence non-compliance with recommendations for primary care physician referrals, following community-based screening for diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. A parallel mixed-methods study was conducted. For quantitative data, we performed multivariable analysis on community-based chronic disease screening data. The qualitative component involved semi-structured interviews with individuals with both non-compliance and compliance with referral recommendations. Thematic data analysis was undertaken using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF). The quantitative analysis showed that older age (OR = 0.92, 95%CI [0.89-0.96]), non-Chinese ethnicity (OR = 0.24; 95% CI [0.08-0.44]) and residing in 5-room public/ private housing (OR = 0.40; 95% CI [0.14-0.74]) were associated with lower odds of non-compliance with referral recommendations. Thematic analysis identified multiple behavioral-level determinants acting as enablers or barriers within 7 TDF domains: awareness of health risks after receiving screening results, self-management orientation and behavioral control, fear of formal diagnosis and concerns about healthcare cost, optimistic belief driven by the lack of symptoms, interpersonal relationship and social obligations, aversion to medication, communication at the result collection and sense of uncertainty regarding self-scheduling of appointment. Findings provide valuable implications for the development of interventions aimed at improving adherence to referral recommendation. Future endeavors should include culturally sensitive outreach, evidence-based information dissemination, family-centered education, positive public health messaging, brief counseling during result collection and an opt-out appointment system to enhance follow-up care.

Causal Paradigm Between Common Comorbidities of Cardiovascular and Metabolism-Related Diseases in Elderly: Evidence from Cross-Sectional and Mendelian Randomization Studies. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2023; 16:2953-2966. [PMID: 37771468 PMCID: PMC10522458 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s427103] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 09/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Comorbidity is a common problem among elderly people, significantly damaging individuals' health and healthcare systems. However, observational studies may be susceptible to residual confounding factors and bias. The present study aimed to assess the causal effect of common chronic disease comorbidity using the Mendelian randomization (MR) approach. Methods Data for the present study were obtained from a community survey conducted between 2018 and 2020 in four counties in Ganzhou City, southern China. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a multi-stage stratified random sampling method. A total of 1756 valid questionnaires were collected to analyze common chronic disease comorbidities. Genetic variants associated with hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and hyperlipidemia-related factors were selected as instrumental variables for univariate and multivariate MR analyses. Results The self-reported prevalence of chronic disease in the older adult population in Southern China was 68.1%, with hypertension (46.1%), diabetes (10.5%), and hyperlipidemia (8.5%) being the three most common conditions. The prevalence of chronic disease comorbidity was 20.7% among the 12 chronic diseases studied. Hypertension was identified as a predictor of diabetes (OR [95% CI]: 1.114 [1.049, 1.184], p < 0.001), and diabetes mellitus was equally identified as a risk factor for hypertension (OR [95% CI]: 1.118 [1.069, 1.187], p < 0.001). Furthermore, high triglyceride levels were identified as a risk factor for hypertension (OR [95% CI]: 1.262 [1.129, 1.411], p < 0.001). In contrast to intracranial hemorrhages, hypertension had a significant impact on ischemic stroke (OR [95% CI]: 1.299 [1.161, 1.454], p < 0.001). Conclusion The causal association between multiple cardiovascular and metabolism-related diseases is mediated by hypertension, with a bidirectional cause-and-effect relationship between hypertension and diabetes. Hypertension is a risk factor for ischemic stroke, and the hyperlipidemia-related factor triglycerides (TG) influence hypertension. Therefore, prioritizing hypertension prevention and control in the elderly is critical for effective chronic disease management.

Abstract
Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDPs) are no longer seen as "transitory diseases cured by delivery." It accounts for up to 50% of maternal deaths. Information concerning HDPs is less in developing countries like Ghana. This study was conducted to find out the prevalence, awareness, risk factors, control, and the birth outcomes of HDPs. This was a retrospective cohort study conducted among pregnant women seeking care in selected health facilities in the Ashanti Region. Data on demographics, HDPs, and its associated birth outcomes were collected. Logistic regression models were used to examine the association of the independent variables with HDPs. The burden of HDPs was 37.2% among the 500 mothers enrolled with chronic hypertension superimposed with preeclampsia accounting for 17.6%, chronic hypertension, 10.2%, and preeclampsia 6.8% whilst gestational hypertension was 2.6%. It was observed that 44% (220) of the mothers had excellent knowledge on HDPs. Oral nifedipine and methyldopa were frequently used for HDP management, and it resulted in a significant reduction in HDP burden from 37.2% to 26.6%. Factors that influenced the increased risk of HDPs were grand multigravida (AOR = 4.53; CI = 1.42-14.42), family history of hypertension (AOR = 3.61; CI = 1.89-6.90), and the consumption of herbal preparations (AOR = 2.92; CI = 1.15-7.41) and alcohol (AOR = 4.10; CI = 1.34-12.62) during pregnancy. HDPs increased the risk of preterm delivery (AOR = 2.66; CI = 1.29-5.89), stillbirth (AOR = 12.47; CI = 2.72-57.24), and undergoing caesarean section (AOR = 1.70; CI = 1.10-2.61) amongst mothers during delivery. The burden of HDPs is high amongst pregnant mothers seeking care in selected facilities. There is the need for intensified campaign on HDPs in the Ashanti Region of Ghana.

Abstract
Female infertility (FI) is a global health issue. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common cause of FI. The renalase gene (RNLS) is associated with FI and other human diseases. Based on the documented missense variants, rs6166 and rs2296545 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were not identified in Saudi women with FI and PCOS. This study aimed to investigate the molecular role of the two SNPs in Saudi women with FI and PCOS. In this cross-sectional study, 96 healthy controls, 96 women with FI, and 96 women with PCOS were recruited. DNA was isolated, and polymerase chain reactions and Sanger sequencing analysis were performed using rs6166 and rs2296545 SNPs. The data obtained from the three groups were used to perform statistical analyses based on genotype, allele frequencies, regression models, and ANOVA analysis. Both rs6166 and rs2296545 had no role in FI or PCOS in Saudi women. A predicted reason for non-association in Saudi women could be the role of elderly women in the controls compared with women with FI and PCOS. Moreover, age, weight, and body mass index were higher in the control group than the FI and PCOS groups. In conclusion, rs6166 and rs2296545 SNPs were not associated with FI or PCOS in Saudi women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a worldwide public health problem. We sought to explore the interaction of oral health and smoking on hypertension, and periodontal disease and smoking on hypertension. METHODS We included 21,800 participants aged ≧ 30 years from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-2018. Information of oral health and periodontal disease were self-reported. Blood pressure was taken by trained personnel and/or physicians at mobile testing center. Multiple logistic regression was used to estimate the association between oral health, periodontal disease and the prevalence of hypertension. The effects of oral health and periodontal disease on hypertension under smoking status and age were analyzed by stratified and interaction analysis. RESULTS A total of 21,800 participants were investigated, including 11,017 (50.54%) in hypertensive group and 10,783 (49.46%) in non-hypertensive group. Compared with the excellent/very good of oral health, the multivariable-adjusted OR of good, fair, and poor were 1.13 (95% CI, 1.02-1.27), 1.30 (95% CI, 1.15-1.47), and 1.48 (95% CI, 1.22-1.79) (p for trend < 0.001) for hypertension, respectively. Compared without periodontal disease group, the multivariable-adjusted OR of periodontal disease for hypertension was 1.21 (95% CI ,1.09-1.35) (p for trend < 0.001). Furthermore, we found the interactions between periodontal disease and smoking, oral health and smoking, periodontal disease and age, oral health and age were p < 0.001. CONCLUSIONS An association between oral health and periodontal disease with the prevalence of hypertension was identified. There exists interactive effect of periodontal disease and smoking, oral health and smoking, periodontal disease and age, oral health and age on hypertension in American population over 30 years of age and older.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:3628. [PMID: 36869158 PMCID: PMC9984466 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-30833-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Although the association of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with obesity or sarcopenia is known, few studies have investigated the combined effect of various body composition parameters on the risk of NAFLD. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate effects of interactions between various body composition parameters, including obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia, on NAFLD. Data of subjects who underwent health checkups between 2010 and December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Body composition parameters including appendicular skeletal muscle mass (ASM) and visceral adiposity were assessed using bioelectrical impedance analysis. Sarcopenia was defined as ASM/weight beyond two standard deviations below the gender-specific mean for healthy young adults. NAFLD was diagnosed using hepatic ultrasonography. Interaction analyses, including relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), synergy index (SI), and attributable proportion due to interaction (AP), were performed. Among a total of 17,540 subjects (mean age: 46.7 years, 49.4% males), the prevalence of NAFLD was 35.9%. The odds ratio (OR) of interaction between obesity and visceral adiposity affecting NAFLD was 9.14 (95% CI: 8.29-10.07). The RERI was 2.63 (95% CI: 1.71-3.55), SI was 1.48 (95% CI: 1.29-1.69) and AP was 29%. The OR of interaction between obesity and sarcopenia affecting NAFLD was 8.46 (95% CI: 7.01-10.21). The RERI was 2.21 (95% CI: 0.51-3.90). SI was 1.42(95% CI: 1.11-1.82) and AP was 26%. The OR of interaction between sarcopenia and visceral adiposity affecting NAFLD was 7.25 (95% CI: 6.04-8.71), however, there was no significant additive interaction with RERI = 0.87 (95% CI: -0.76 to 2.51). Obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia were found to be positively associated with NAFLD. Obesity, visceral adiposity, and sarcopenia were found to have additive interaction effects on NAFLD.

Int J Endocrinol 2023; 2023:6009414. [PMID: 36700170 PMCID: PMC9870675 DOI: 10.1155/2023/6009414] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many patients with type 2 diabetes have an abnormal body mass index (BMI) and hypertension together, but few studies on the interaction of the two on the risk of T2DM are reported. We aim to explore the effect of the interaction between abnormal BMI and hypertension on the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Uyghur residents. METHODS AND RESULTS Based on the physical examination data of 27,4819 Uygur residents in Moyu County, a logistic regression model was used to analyze the correlation between BMI abnormality, hypertension, and T2DM disease, and then, the effect of their interaction on the risk of T2DM was evaluated by an additive model and a multiplicative model. The results showed that the detectable rate of T2DM was 5.58%, the proportion of abnormal BMI was 59.49%, and the proportion of hypertension was 25.14%. The risk of T2DM in people with an abnormal BMI and hypertension was higher than that in people with a normal weight and without hypertension, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The additive model showed that after adjusting for confounding factors such as gender, age, family history of diabetes, abdominal obesity, and alcohol consumption, abnormal BMI and hypertension had a synergistic effect on the risk of T2DM and the evaluation indicators RERI, AP, and S were 0.90 (0.32∼1.49), 0.20 (0.11∼0.30), and 1.36 (1.17∼1.57), respectively. But there was no multiplicative interaction between the two (OR = 0.97, (95% CI: 0.89∼1.06). 3). CONCLUSION The interaction between abnormal BMI and hypertension can increase the risk of T2DM, and improving BMI and controlling blood pressure within the normal range can effectively reduce the risk of T2DM.

Abstract
Background Hypertensive patients have a younger trend, and studies on the role of genetic factors in hypertension susceptibility have been inconsistent. Aldehyde dehydrogenases 2 (ALDH2) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) are involved in the pathophysiological processes of hypertension. To investigate the relationship of ALDH2 and APOE polymorphisms with hypertension in middle-aged (30-59 years old) and elderly (≥60 years old) persons. Methods Two thousand six hundred and ten hypertensive patients and 1921 controls were included (between 30 and 100 years old). The genotypes of common polymorphisms in APOE and ALDH2 genes (APOE rs429358, rs7412, and ALDH2 rs671) of the subjects were analyzed by polymerase-chain reaction (PCR)-microarray. Statistical analyses (Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U-test, χ 2 test, and logistic regression analysis) were performed with SPSS v21.0. Results There were 4531 participants (66.60 ± 12.10 years old) in this study, including 3057 (67.5%) males and 1474 (32.5%) females. There were no significant differences in distributions of ALDH2 rs671, APOE rs429358/rs7412 genotypes and alleles between hypertensive patients and controls. Persons with ALDH2 rs671 G/A or A/A genotype were less likely to have hypertension (G/A+A/A vs G/G: gender-, age-, smoking-, and drinking-adjusted OR 0.885, 95% CI 0.785-0.997, P=0.045), while ALDH2 rs671 A/A+APOE rs429358 or rs7412 wild-type genotype may decrease the risk of hypertension. In middle-aged group, ALDH2 rs671 G/A+APOE rs429358 T/C carriers (adjusted OR 0.547, 95% CI 0.350-0.856, P=0.008), and ALDH2 rs671 A/A+APOE rs7412 C/C genotypes (adjusted OR 0.567, 95% CI 0.361-0.891, P=0.014) were less likely to have hypertension. In elderly group, APOE rs7412 T/T carriers were more likely to have hypertension (rs671 T/T vs C/C: adjusted OR 4.755, 95% CI 1.075-21.027, P=0.040; rs671 T/T vs C/C or C/T: adjusted OR 4.734, 95% CI 1.071-20.928, P=0.040). Conclusion Polymorphism-polymorphism interactions of ALDH2 rs671 and APOE rs429358/rs7412 may effect on hypertension susceptibility. Different genotypes comparison shows different roles in middle-aged and elderly people, respectively.

Abstract
Abstract
Objective
To explore the risk probability and main influencing factors of stroke in followed-up hypertension patients through the analysis of long-term followed-up cohort data.
Methods
The method of followed-up observation cohort was used to collect the information of 168,417 followed-up hypertension patients from 2002 to 2020 in Jiading District in Shanghai. Kaplan–Meier method was used to analyze the risk probability of stroke complications in long-term followed-up HTN patients, and the influencing factors were analyzed by Cox proportional risk model.
Results
Among 168,417 followed-up hypertension patients, 11,143 cases had suffered stroke, and the cumulative incidence rate of stroke was 6.62% (male was 6.87%, female was 6.37%). With the extension of the hypertension years, the cumulative risk probability of stroke in HTN patients would continue to increase and the interval was not equidistant. The total cumulative risk probability of stroke in HTN patients was 78.9% (male was 91.0%, female was 70.7%). During the period of hypertension, the risk occurring probability of stroke was not fixed, but fluctuating. There were 4 onset peaks, which were in 8 years (probability was 4.2%), 15 years (probability was 14.0%), 22 years (probability was 6.0%) and 26 years (probability was 13.9%). The highest risk probability of male patients was in 26 years (probability was 23.1%), and the second peak was in 15 years (probability was 15.6%). The highest risk probability of female patients was in 15 years (probability was 12.9%), and the second peak was in 26 years (probability was 8.7%). The risk probability of different gender, BP grade and BMI was different, the male were at higher risk than the female, stage 3 HTN was higher than stage 2 and stage 1 HTN, obese people and underweight people were at higher risk than those who have normal weight. The main factors closely related to the occurrence of stroke complications were age (RR = 2.917, p < 0.001), body mass index (RR = 1.654, p < 0.001), family history of stroke (RR = 1.386, p < 0.001) and blood pressure grade (RR = 1.148, p < 0.001).
Conclusion
The risk probability of stroke among hypertension patients was high in followed-up hypertension patients (total 78.9%, male 91.0%, female 70.7%), and would continue to increase disproportionately during period of hypertension (4 different onset peaks). With the persistence of hypertension, the risk probability of stroke would increase continuously. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that male patients, patients with HBP, abnormal BMI and positive family history were main factors closely related to the occurrence of stroke complications.

Cardiovascular (Framingham) and type II diabetes (Finnish Diabetes) risk scores: a qualitative study of local knowledge of diet, physical activity and body measurements in rural Rakai, Uganda. BMC Public Health 2022; 22:2214. [PMID: 36447173 PMCID: PMC9706863 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-022-14620-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 11/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular conditions and diabetes are rising in sub-Saharan Africa. Prevention strategies to mitigate non-communicable diseases include improving diet, physical activity, early diagnosis, and long-term management. Early identification of individuals at risk based on risk-score models - such as the Framingham Risk Score (FRS) for 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease and the Finnish type 2 Diabetes risk score (FINDRISC) for type 2 diabetes which are used in high-income settings - have not been well assessed in sub-Saharan Africa. The purpose of this study was to qualitatively assess local knowledge of components of these risk scores in a rural Ugandan setting. METHODS Semi-structured qualitative in-depth interviews were conducted with a purposively selected sample of 15 participants who had responded to the FRS and FINDRISC questionnaires and procedures embedded in the Rakai Community Cohort Study. Data were summarized and categorized using content analysis, with support of Atlas.ti. RESULTS Participants described local terms for hypertension ("pulessa") and type 2 diabetes ("sukaali"). Most participants understood physical activity as leisure physical activity, but when probed would also include physical activity linked to routine farm work. Vegetables were typically described as "plants", "leafy greens", and "side dish". Vegetable and fruit consumption was described as varying seasonally, with peak availability in December after the rainy season. Participants perceived themselves to have good knowledge about their family members' history of type 2 diabetes and hypertension. CONCLUSIONS While most items of the FRS and FINDRISC were generally well understood, physical activity needs further clarification. It is important to consider the seasonality of fruits and vegetables, especially in rural resource-poor settings. Current risk scores will need to be locally adapted to estimate the 10-year risk of cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes in this setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a serious public health issue in Ethiopia, but there is a paucity of evidence in the country's rural areas. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of hypertension and its risk factors among adults in rural districts in northwest Ethiopia. METHODS A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted from June to October 2020. The 1177 study participants were chosen using a multistage sampling procedure. A face-to-face interview was conducted using an adapted version of the WHO STEPwise approach questionnaire. Blood pressure was measured three times using an aneroid sphygmomanometer, and the mean of the last two readings were used for the analysis. Data was entered using Epidata and analyzed using STATA-16. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify risk factors associated with hypertension. RESULTS Of the total participants, 218 (18.5%) were found to be hypertensive. The prevalence of hypertension consistently increases with age. Hypertension was positively and significantly associated with female sex ((adjusted odd ratio (AOR) = 2.30, 95% CI: 1.53, 3.45)), age group 45-54 years (AOR = 4.63, 95% CI: 1.01, 21.37), 55-64 years (AOR = 14.40, 95% CI: 3.07, 67.63), ≥65 years (AOR = 19.37, 95% CI: 4.03, 93.09), having history of alcohol consumption (AOR = 3.25, 95% CI: 1.17, 9.02), used much amount of salt (AOR = 2.37, 95% CI: 1.53, 3.60) and too much amount of salt (AOR = 3.78, 95% CI: 1.85, 7.72), sleeping for a short duration (AOR = 2.05, 95%CI: 1.30, 3.24), and having family history of hypertension (AOR = 2.12, 95% CI; 1.32, 3.39). CONCLUSIONS Hypertension was significantly high among the rural population we studied and is emerging as a public health problem. Female sex, advanced age, ever used alcohol, excessive salt intake, insufficient sleep, and a family history of hypertension were factors that were positively and significantly associated with hypertension. We recommend local health authorities integrate promotion of hypertension health education, lifestyle modification intervention on salt and alcohol reduction, and hypertension detection, particularly for the female and elderly population, at the health post level to avert the problem.

Abstract
Background Hypertension is rising as a major public health burden around the world. This study explored the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-Binding Cassette Subfamily A1 (ABCA1) gene and hypertension among Chinese Han adults. Method A total of 2,296 Han Chinese in southeast China were recruited for this study. We collected medical reports, lifestyle details, and blood samples from individuals. The polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reaction (PCR-LDR) method was used to detect the genotypes of these SNPs in the ABCA1 gene. Results After adjusting some covariates, the additive and recessive models of the rs2472510 and rs2515614 were significantly associated with hypertension. The haplotypes TCTA (rs2297406-rs2472433-rs2472510-rs2515614) were associated with high SBP, and the haplotypes CCTA, TCTA, and TTTA were associated with high diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Conclusion The results of the relationship between the polymorphisms of rs2297406, rs2472433, rs2472510, and rs2515614 in ABCA1 and hypertension in southeastern China would provide a theoretical basis for genetic screening and disease prevention.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have risen steadily worldwide, particularly in low-income and developing countries. In the last hundred years, deaths caused by cardiovascular diseases increased rapidly to 35-40%, becoming the most common cause of mortality worldwide. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is aggravated by hypertension. Hypertension and diabetes are closely interlinked since they have similar risk factors such as endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation, arterial remodeling, atherosclerosis, dyslipidemia, and obesity. Patients with high blood pressure often show insulin resistance and have a higher risk of developing diabetes than normotensive individuals. It has been observed that over the last 30 years, the prevalence of insulin resistance (IR) has increased significantly. Accordingly, hypertension and insulin resistance are strongly related to an increased risk of impaired glucose tolerance, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and endocrine disorders. Common mechanisms, for instance, upregulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, oxidative stress, inflammation, and activation of the immune system, possibly have a role in the association between diabetes and hypertension. Altogether these abnormalities significantly increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Background : Exposure to acute noise can cause an increase in biological stress reactions, which provides biological plausibility for a potential association between sustained noise exposure and stress-related health effects. However, the certainty in the evidence for an association between exposures to noise on short- and long-term biomarkers of stress has not been widely explored. The objective of this review was to evaluate the strength of evidence between noise exposure and changes in the biological parameters known to contribute to the development of stress-related adverse cardiovascular responses. Materials and Methods This systematic review comprises English language comparative studies available in PubMed, Cochrane Central, EMBASE, and CINAHL databases from January 1, 1980 to December 29, 2021. Where possible, random-effects meta-analyses were used to examine the effect of noise exposure from various sources on stress-related cardiovascular biomarkers. The risk of bias of individual studies was assessed using the risk of bias of nonrandomized studies of exposures instrument. The certainty of the body of evidence for each outcome was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach. Results : The search identified 133 primary studies reporting on blood pressure, hypertension, heart rate, cardiac arrhythmia, vascular resistance, and cardiac output. Meta-analyses of blood pressure, hypertension, and heart rate suggested there may be signals of increased risk in response to a higher noise threshold or incrementally higher levels of noise. Across all outcomes, the certainty of the evidence was very low due to concerns with the risk of bias, inconsistency across exposure sources, populations, and studies and imprecision in the estimates of effects. Conclusions : This review identifies that exposure to higher levels of noise may increase the risk of some short- and long-term cardiovascular events; however, the certainty of the evidence was very low. This likely represents the inability to compare across the totality of the evidence for each outcome, underscoring the value of continued research in this area. Findings from this review may be used to inform policies of noise reduction or mitigation interventions.

Effect of Hypertension, Waist-to-Height Ratio, and Their Transitions on the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Analysis from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. J Diabetes Res 2022; 2022:7311950. [PMID: 36046148 PMCID: PMC9420619 DOI: 10.1155/2022/7311950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2021] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes is a major reason of death and disability worldwide and frequently coexists with hypertension and central obesity. This study is aimed at investigating the effects of hypertension, waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), and their dynamic transitions on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) onset among middle-aged and elderly people in China. METHODS We analyzed 9843 participants free of T2DM (average age, 59.04 ± 9.26 years) at baseline from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. We classified the participants into the following four categories based on hypertension and WHtR statuses: nonhypertensive with a normal WHtR (NHNW); hypertensive with a normal WHtR (HTNW); nonhypertensive with an elevated WHtR (NHEW); and hypertensive with an elevated WHtR (HTEW). By using a Cox proportional hazards regression model, we assessed whether hypertension, WHtR, and their transitions over time correlated with T2DM risk. RESULTS During the follow-up of 8 years, 1263 participants developed incident T2DM. The hazard ratio (HR) for T2DM was 1.48 (95% CI: 1.12, 1.97), 1.56 (95% CI: 1.27, 1.92), and 2.15 (95% CI: 1.74, 2.67) in the HTNW, NHEW, and HTEW groups, respectively, compared with the NHNW group after controlling for confounding factors. When stratified by statuses of hypertension and WHtR transitions, the participants who transitioned from HTNW to HTEW (HR = 1.98, 95% CI: 1.24-3.17), or NHEW to NHNW/HTNW (HR = 1.74, 95% CI: 1.14-2.65), or remained NHEW (HR = 1.42, 95% CI: 1.04-1.93), or NHEW to HTEW (HR = 2.40, 95% CI: 1.66-3.49), or remained HTEW (HR = 2.51, 95% CI: 1.87-3.37) during the follow-up period showed a higher T2DM risk than the consistently NHNW participants. CONCLUSIONS Being HTNW, NHEW or HTEW or occurring adverse transitions between those states was strongly associated with T2DM onset. Effectively warding off hypertension and central obesity or preventing their further aggravation may substantially decrease the T2DM risk.

ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms rs2681472 and rs17249754 are associated with susceptibility to hypertension and blood pressure levels: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e25530. [PMID: 33847678 PMCID: PMC8052043 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000025530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2020] [Accepted: 03/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the relationships between ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms with blood pressure (BP) level and susceptibility to hypertension. METHODS PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) Databases were systematically searched by 2 independent researchers to screen studies on ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms and BP related phenotypes. The records retrieval period was limited from the formation of the database to March 4, 2021. Pooled odds rations (ORs) or β and their 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated to assess the association between ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms and the risk of hypertension or BP levels. Publication bias and sensitivity analysis were conducted to find potential bias. All the statistical analysis were conducted with Stata version 11.0 software. RESULTS A total of 15 articles were ultimately included in the present study, including 15 polymorphisms of ATP2B1 gene. Nine articles (N = 65,362) reported the polymorphism rs17249754, and 7 articles(N = 91,997) reported rs2681472 (both loci were reported in 1 article). Meta-analysis showed that rs17249754 (G/A) and rs2681472 (A/G) were associated with the susceptibility to hypertension (rs17249754: OR = 1.19, 95%CI: 1.10-1.28; rs2681472: OR = 1.15, 95%CI: 1.12-1.17), and were positively associated with systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (rs17249754: SBP, β=1.01, 95%CI: 0.86-1.16, DBP, β=0.48, 95%CI: 0.30-0.66; rs2681472: SBP, β=0.92, 95%CI: 0.77-1.07, DBP, β=0.50, 95%CI: 0.42-0.58) in the additive genetic model. Subgroup analysis stratified by race, population, sample size, and BP measurement method revealed that the association between A allele in rs2681472 polymorphism and risk of hypertension was slightly stronger in European (EUR) populations (OR = 1.16, 95%CI: 1.13-1.20) than in East Asians (OR = 1.14, 95%CI: 1.10-1.17). While in East Asians, relation between rs17249754 with risk of hypertension (OR = 1.19, 95%CI: 1.10-1.28) is stronger than rs2681472 (OR = 1.14, 95%CI: 1.10-1.17). CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that ATP2B1 gene polymorphism rs2681472 and rs17249754 were associated with BP levels and the susceptibility to hypertension.
