“…This study shows that the number of hypertension cases is higher among elderly (126 people) than among coal mining workers (40 people), mining workers aged from 18 years to 56 years. This study is in line with previous studies, stating that parents have a high incidence rate of hypertension, especially at the age exceeding 60 years, with a prevalence rate being from 60 % to 80 % [14,15]. In another study performed in Sao Paulo, it was found that prevalence of hypertension among elderly groups was 70 % of the total population [16].…”

Hypertension is a chronic disease with its prevalence increasing from 2013 to 2018 among population of Indonesia. In 2013 the prevalence of hypertension was 25.8%, and in 2018 it increased to 34.1%. Therefore, the participation of all related parties, both doctors and health professionals from various fields of hypertension specialization, government, the private sector, and the public, is needed to control hypertension. One of the private parties that has the authority to participate in the prevention of hypertension in Indonesia is business. One sector that has a large workforce is the coal mining sector. This study aimed to look at the influence exerted by hypertension in parents’ case history on risks of incidence withhypertension among coal mining workers. This study is a cross-sectional one with two variables, namely hypertension in parents’ case histories and hypertension among coal mining workers performed on a sampling including 360 coal mining workers. The results showed that if a father had hypertension in his case history the risk of incidence with hypertension among coal mining workers was 3.143 times higher because OR = 3.143; 95% CI (1.568 <OR <6.229), while if a mother had hypertension in her case history the risk of incidence with hypertension among coal mining workers is 6.519 times higher because OR = 6.519; 95% CI (3,267 <OR <13,008) and if parents have hypertension in their case history, the risk of incidence with hypertension among coal mine workers is 6.061 times higher because OR = 6.061; 95% CI (2,910 <OR <12,625). The Conclusion is enough to prove that hereditary or genetic factors play a role in the increased risk of hypertension in coal mining workers.

“…Since BP is only measured once, we cannot determine hypertensive status, but as BP readings increase, cardiovascular (CV) risk also increases. 1 , 24 Thus, a single BP reading can provide meaningful data about potential risk for early-onset CVD in a young adult population. Covariates included self-reported prior diagnosis of hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and heart disease.…”

Social Adversity, Sleep Characteristics, and Elevated Blood Pressure Among Young Adult Black Females

2020

We examined whether sleep characteristics and adverse social exposures were associated with elevated blood pressure (BP) in young adult black women. Methods: This is a cross-sectional analysis of existing data from 581 black females who participated in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health). Adverse social exposures included child abuse, discrimination, perceived stress, social isolation, and subjective social status. Self-reported sleep characteristics were measures of duration, latency, continuity, and snoring. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the influence of social exposures and sleep characteristics on BP. Results: Among the women (mean age = 29.1 years), 32.4% had elevated BP (‡ 130 systolic or ‡ 80 diastolic). In adjusted analysis, poor sleep continuity (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.70, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.07-2.70) and discrimination (aOR = 1.61, 95% CI = 1.00-2.58) were associated with higher odds of elevated BP, while more social isolation (aOR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.48-0.99) was associated with lower odds of elevated BP. Conclusion: Poor sleep continuity and experiencing discrimination may represent key risk factors for hypertension in young black females. Unexpectedly, being more isolated was associated with lower BP. Future research should examine how to adapt current paradigms and measures of social connectedness, isolation, and stress to better elucidate the impact of these factors on the long-term health of young black females.

“…Biological risk factors for AAEAs include hypertension, 5,[17][18][19] diabetes, [20][21][22][23][24] obesity, [25][26][27] metabolic syndrome, [28][29][30][31][32] and CVD biomarkers (ie, hyperlipidemia, triglycerides, large artery stiffness, waist/hip circumference ratios, and neck circumference, [33][34][35][36][37] and carotid artery intima-media thickness 34,37,38 ). Behavioral CVD risk factors in AAEAs include inadequate diet/nutrition, [39][40][41][42][43][44] inadequate physical activity, 42,45,46 smoking, [47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56] and insufficient or ineffective sleep.

Background: Emerging adulthood (18-25 years old) is a distinct developmental period in which multiple life transitions pose barriers to engaging in healthy lifestyle behaviors that reduce cardiovascular disease risk. There is limited theory-based research on African American emerging adults. Objective: This article introduces a synthesized empirically testable situation-specific theory for cardiovascular disease prevention in African American emerging adults. Methodology: Im and Meleis' integrative approach was used to develop the situation-specific theory. Results: Unlocking Population-Specific Treatments to Render Equitable Approach and Management in Cardiovascular Disease is a situation-specific theory developed based on theoretical and empirical evidence and theorists' research and clinical practice experiences. Discussion: African American emerging adults have multifaceted factors that influence health behaviors and healthcare needs. Unlocking Population-Specific Treatments to Render Equitable Approaches and Management in Cardiovascular Disease has the potential to inform theory-guided clinical practice and nursing research. Recommendations for integration in nursing practice, research, and policy advocacy are presented. Further critique and testing of the theory are required.
