Abstract

Obesity has been reported to be associated with a number of cardiovascular diseases. Some researchers forecast that obesity may contribute to increase prevalence of high blood pressure in young adults. To compare pulse rate and blood pressure between young obese and non-obese subjects, this cross-sectional analytical study was done in the Department of Physiology, Sylhet MAG Osmani Medical College from January to December 2017. Fifty obese (BMI ≥27.5 kg/m2) and age-sex matched non-obese (BMI 18.5-22.9 kg/m2) young adult were selected. The age (35.56 ± 3.02 years versus 32.40 ± 4.20 years; p=0.116) and sex 26 (52.0%) male versus 31 (62.0%) male; p=0.313) were not differ between obese and non-obese subjects. The mean resting pulse rate (82.98 ± 3.50 beats /minute versus 72.64 ± 3.58 beats/minute; p<0.001), systolic blood pressure (130.20 ± 10.00 mm Hg versus 107.30 ± 10.60 mm Hg; p<0.001) and diastolic blood pressure (80.90 ± 7.19 mm Hg versus 67.90 ± 7.22 mm Hg; p<0.001) were higher in obese compared to non-obese participants. Obesity increases pulse rate and blood pressure in young adults. Bangladesh Med J. 2021 Sept; 51(1): 47-51

肥胖和非肥胖青年脉搏率和血压的比较

据报道，肥胖与许多心血管疾病有关。一些研究人员预测，肥胖可能会增加年轻人高血压的患病率。为了比较年轻肥胖和非肥胖受试者的脉搏率和血压，这项横断面分析研究于2017年1月至12月在Sylhet MAG Osmani医学院生理学系进行。选择50名肥胖(BMI≥27.5 kg/m2)和年龄性别匹配的非肥胖(BMI 18.5-22.9 kg/m2)年轻人。年龄(35.56±3.02岁vs 32.40±4.20岁);P =0.116)，性别26 (52.0%)vs 31 (62.0%);P =0.313)，肥胖者与非肥胖者之间差异无统计学意义。平均静息脉搏率(82.98±3.50次/分钟vs 72.64±3.58次/分钟);p<0.001)，收缩压(130.20±10.00 mm Hg vs 107.30±10.60 mm Hg;p<0.001)和舒张压(80.90±7.19 mm Hg vs 67.90±7.22 mm Hg;P <0.001)，肥胖者比非肥胖者高。肥胖会增加年轻人的脉搏率和血压。孟加拉国Med . 2021年9月;51 (1): 47-51
