Blood Pressure Control and Anthropometric Differences in Afro-Descendants and Other Ethnic Groups in Hypertensive Brazilian Populations.
Background: The prevalence of hypertension (HT) and blood pressure (BP) control varies among ethnic-racial groups, but studies on this issue and correlations between BP and body mass index (BMI) in the black Brazilian population are scarce.
Methods: Cross-sectional study in individuals included in the First Brazilian Hypertension Registry. Relationships between variables were analysed by a binary logistic regression analysis.
Results: The study evaluated 2.191 (82.9%) non-Afro-descendant participants and 452 (17.1%) Afro-descendants. The median age was 61.9 years (55.3% women), the BMI was 28.4 kg/m² and the waist circumference (WC) was 93 cm in the former cohort. In the Afro-descendant group, the median age was 62.5 years (57.5% women), the was BMI 29.8 kg/m² and the was WC 98 cm. A significant correlation was identified between BMI and office diastolic BP (DBP) (R = 0.126; p = 0.007) in Afro-descendants. These individuals had 1.40 times the chance of being obese compared to those of other ethnicities (95% CI: 1.14-1.72; p < 0.001). Afro-descendant men had 0.78 times fewer chance of being obese compared to women (95% CI: 0.66-0.90; p = 0.002), and 1.49 times higher chance (95% CI = 1.21-1.82; p < 0.001) of having uncontrolled BP, with no differences with Afro-descendant women (HR 0.91; 95% CI = 0.78-1.07; p < 0.258).
Conclusion: No correlations were found between office BP, BMI and WC, except for a very weak correlation between DBP and BMI in the Brazilian Afro-descendants, although they were 1.40 times more likely to be obese. In contrast, a significant correlation between SBP and BMI was observed in the non-Afro-descendants. Differences in blood pressure control were not identified between the sexes within each group, but only between ethnic groups, with people of African descent having a 1.49 times greater risk of uncontrolled hypertension compared to non-Afro-descendants.

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.
