Abstract

A cross-sectional study of 150 adult Bengalee Hindu male jute mill workers of Belur, a suburb of Kolkata, West Bengal, India, was undertaken to study the relationship of age, body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) with systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP) and mean arterial (MAP) blood pressure. The mean age and the BMI of the subjects were 40.7 years (S.D. = 15.2) and 23.2 kg/m2 (S.D. = 3.2), respectively. The mean SBP, DBP and MAP were 124.7 mmHg (S.D. = 7.8), 81.5 mmHg (S.D. = 5.7) and 95.9 mmHg (S.D. = 6.1), respectively. Age had similar significant (p < 0.001) correlations with BMI and WC. Age and WC were significantly correlated (p < 0.001) with all the three blood pressure variables. In general, the correlations of BMI with SBP (r = 0.24, p < 0.01), DBP (r = 0.15, n.s.) and MAP (r = 0.19, p < 0.05) were weaker. Age controlled multiple regression analyses demonstrated that BMI did not have a significant effect of any blood pressure variable. However, WC had a significant impact (p < 0.0001) on SBP (t = 7.068), DBP (t = 5.190) and MAP (t = 6.387), even after adjusting for the effect of age. Moreover, even after age adjustment, percent variations in SBP (20.7%), DBP (12.5%) and MAP (17.2%) explained by WC were high. This significant impact (p < 0.0001) of WC on SBP (t = 9.426), DBP (t = 8.349) and MAP (t = 9.642) remained even after controlling for the combined effects of age and BMI.

印度西孟加拉邦Belur市孟加拉印度教男性黄麻厂工人年龄、体重指数、腰围与血压的关系

本文对印度西孟加拉邦加尔各答郊区Belur的150名成年孟加拉印度教男性黄麻厂工人进行了横断面研究，研究年龄、体重指数(BMI)和腰围(WC)与收缩压(SBP)、舒张压(DBP)和平均动脉压(MAP)的关系。受试者的平均年龄为40.7岁(sd = 15.2)， BMI为23.2 kg/m2 (sd = 3.2)。平均收缩压124.7 mmHg (S.D. = 7.8)，舒张压81.5 mmHg (S.D. = 5.7)， MAP 95.9 mmHg (S.D. = 6.1)。年龄与BMI和WC有相似的显著相关性(p < 0.001)。年龄和WC与所有三个血压变量均显著相关(p < 0.001)。总体而言，BMI与收缩压(r = 0.24, p < 0.01)、DBP (r = 0.15, n.s)、MAP (r = 0.19, p < 0.05)的相关性较弱。年龄控制的多元回归分析表明，BMI对任何血压变量都没有显著影响。然而，即使在调整了年龄的影响后，WC对收缩压(t = 7.068)、舒张压(t = 5.190)和MAP (t = 6.387)也有显著影响(p < 0.0001)。此外，即使在年龄调整后，WC解释的收缩压(20.7%)、舒张压(12.5%)和MAP(17.2%)的变化百分比也很高。即使在控制了年龄和BMI的综合影响后，WC对收缩压(t = 9.426)、DBP (t = 8.349)和MAP (t = 9.642)的显著影响(p < 0.0001)仍然存在。
