Regional differences in the prevalence and influencing factors of hypertension amongst people over 40 years old in Anhui Province

Objective To analyse the differences in the prevalence,awareness rate,control rate and related risk factors of hypertension amongst people aged≥40 years in North Anhui,Central Anhui and South Anhui and provide targeted suggestions for hypertension prevention and treatment in different regions.Methods Using the Yangtze and the Huaihe River as the boundary,Anhui Province was divided into three areas:North Anhui,South Anhui and Central Anhui.Multi-stage stratified cluster sampling was used to investigate the prevalence,awareness,control and related factors of hypertension in Anhui Province in 2015 using a questionnaire survey and physical measurement.χ² test was used to analyse the regional differences in the weighted prevalence rate,awareness rate and control rate of hypertension.In addition,weighty logistic stepwise regression was conducted to analyse the risk factors of hypertension.Logistic stepwise regression was used to analyse the influencing factors of hypertension awareness and control rate.Results A total of 2967 residents aged≥40 years were included in this study.The overall prevalence of hypertension in Anhui Province was 37.7%(40.1%in Central Anhui,38.6%in North Anhui and 34.3%in South Anhui).The prevalence of hypertension in people aged≥60 years in North Anhui was significantly higher than that in Central Anhui and South Anhui.The awareness rate of hypertension was 52.5%,and the control rate was 18.6%.The difference amongst the three regions was statistically significant.The awareness rate and control rate of hypertension in South Anhui were 2.19 times and 3.88 times as high as those in Central Anhui,which were higher than those in North Anhui,and this difference was significant(all P<0.05).Conclusion The prevalence of hypertension amongst people aged≥40 years was high in Anhui Province,and the control rate of hypertension in North Anhui was lower than that in South Anhui.Age,BMI and the level of education were considered as factors affecting the prevalence and control rate of hypertension.Great differences in the level of preventive health care were found between North and South of Anhui Province and between urban and rural areas.
