Decomposing the Poor-Non-Poor Gap in the Prevalence of Undiagnosed and Untreated Hypertension Among Bangladeshi Population.
Objectives: Our objectives were to ascertain: the prevalence and socio-economic distribution of hypertension, as well as the rates of undiagnosed and untreated hypertension; the association between socioeconomic status (SES) and the occurrence of hypertension, as well as the rates of undiagnosed and untreated hypertension; and the factors influencing the poor-non-poor gap in terms of the prevalence, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertension.
Methods: Data from the 2017-18 Bangladesh Demographic Health Survey were used. 11,776 participants who were 18 years of age or older responded to our analysis. We used the wealth index as a proxy for SES. The prevalence of hypertension, both diagnosed and undiagnosed, as well as its untreated states, were the outcome variables.
Results: The age-adjusted prevalence of hypertension, undiagnosed as having hypertension, and untreated cases were 25.1%, 57.2%, and 12.3%, respectively. People in the poor SES groups had a 0.88 times (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.77-0.99) lower likelihood of having hypertension compared to those in the non-poor SES group. Individuals belonging to the poor SES group exhibited a likelihood of 1.68 and 1.53 times greater for having untreated hypertension and being undiagnosed with the condition, respectively, compared to those in the non-poor SES group. The results indicated that BMI played a role in increasing the disparity between the poor and non-poor populations concerning hypertension risk. Additionally, factors such as age, gender, and education were found to exacerbate the gap in the risk of undiagnosed hypertension between these two groups.
Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that appropriate policy measures be developed for ongoing care and early identification, especially for older adults, men, and individuals with low levels of education from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Additionally, efforts must be made to reduce the prevalence of overweight and obesity among people in the non-poor SES category.

期刊介绍：
Global Heart offers a forum for dialogue and education on research, developments, trends, solutions and public health programs related to the prevention and control of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) worldwide, with a special focus on low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Manuscripts should address not only the extent or epidemiology of the problem, but also describe interventions to effectively control and prevent CVDs and the underlying factors. The emphasis should be on approaches applicable in settings with limited resources.
Economic evaluations of successful interventions are particularly welcome. We will also consider negative findings if important. While reports of hospital or clinic-based treatments are not excluded, particularly if they have broad implications for cost-effective disease control or prevention, we give priority to papers addressing community-based activities. We encourage submissions on cardiovascular surveillance and health policies, professional education, ethical issues and technological innovations related to prevention.
Global Heart is particularly interested in publishing data from updated national or regional demographic health surveys, World Health Organization or Global Burden of Disease data, large clinical disease databases or registries. Systematic reviews or meta-analyses on globally relevant topics are welcome. We will also consider clinical research that has special relevance to LMICs, e.g. using validated instruments to assess health-related quality-of-life in patients from LMICs, innovative diagnostic-therapeutic applications, real-world effectiveness clinical trials, research methods (innovative methodologic papers, with emphasis on low-cost research methods or novel application of methods in low resource settings), and papers pertaining to cardiovascular health promotion and policy (quantitative evaluation of health programs.
