Longitudinal association between physical activity and blood pressure, risk of hypertension among Chinese adults: China Health and Nutrition Survey 1991-2015.
European Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2020 May 14
OBJECTIVES: To examine the effects of physical activity (PA) in adults with or without prehypertension at baseline on systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and hypertension risk by gender.
METHODS: A total of 5986 men and 6525 women (≥18 years old) without hypertension-related disease at baseline who attended surveys from China Health and Nutrition Survey (1991-2015) at least twice were selected. In terms of the nested data structure, three-level random intercept growth model and three-level logistic regression were used to estimate the relationship between the PA and SBP/DBP or hypertension risk.
RESULTS: The incidence of hypertension increased from 10.86% in 1991 to 20.34% in 2015, and the median of PA dropped from 408 MET·h/week in 1991 to 104 MET·h/week in 2015. After adjusting confounders, PA in the third and fourth quartiles decreased SBP (by 0.98 and 0.96 mm Hg, p < 0.05) and DBP (by 0.30 and 0.38 mm Hg, p < 0.05), and it reduced the odds of hypertension by 12 and 15% (p < 0.05), compared with PA in the lowest quartile. For normotensive women in the third quartile of PA and prehypertensive women in the fourth quartile of PA, the risk of hypertension was reduced 15 and 22%, compared with women in the lowest quartile of PA.
CONCLUSIONS: Physical activity should be improved to the relatively high level to be effective in controlling blood pressure. Normotensive women had an association between physical activity and SBP, DBP, and the risk of hypertension.
