Background: Hypertension becomes a serious problem since one in three adults worldwide suffers from hypertension. Hypertension is the third highest cause of death in Indonesia at all ages with the proportion of deaths of 6.83%. Purpose: This study aims to determine the relationship of lifestyle with hypertension in Dusun Sendang Anyar and Tambakrame Desa Bumiayu Kecamatan Baureno Kabupaten Bojonegoro. Methods: This research was done for a month from July to August 2017. This research type is descriptive with cross sectional research design. The population study were 150 family heads who have at least one family member aged ≥40 years. Sampling method using cluster random sampling, obtained sample of 101 family heads. Independent variable in this study is hypertension, while the dependent variable is lifestyle that includes sports habits, smoking, consumption of salted fish, spinach, banana, and frying food. Data analysis using chi square statistic test with significance level of 95% and α = 5%. Results: This study showed that the variables related to hypertension were sports habit (p = 0.01), smoking (p = 0.01), consumption of salted fish (p = 0.01), consumption of spinach (p = 0.01), consumption of banana (p= 0.02). Variable unrelated to hypertension was consumption of frying food (p = 0.23). Conclusion: There were correlation between exercise habits, smoking, consumption of salted fish, consumption of spinach, and consumption of banana with hypertension.

“…Hypertension in mammals is an abnormally elevated blood flow rate in the vasculature characterised by increased exertion of force by blood on a unit area of blood vessel. Hypertension strains the heart, injure blood vessels, increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, kidney problems and if untreated may cause death (Dayanand et al, 2015). Globally hypertension is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, with people in sub-Saharan Africa more affected and likely to suffer one or more hypertension related diseases (Ogah, 2012).…”

Hypertension is an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, which are major causes of mortality globally. This study evaluated the antihypertensive effects of Harungana madagascariensis on sodium fluorideinduced hypertension. Twenty-five rats were randomly divided into five groups (A-E). Group A (control), received normal food and water with no treatment; Groups B to E were exposed to 300 ppm sodium fluoride (NaF). In addition, Group C was treated with 10 mg/kg enalapril, while Groups D and E were treated with 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg of H. madagascariensis extract, respectively. The result showed that there was a significant decrease in the systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) of the rats treated with 200 mg/kg of H. madagascariensis compared with rats exposed to NaF alone. Also significant increase was observed in the activities of the enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants in the cardiac and renal tissues of rats treated with 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg of H. madagascariensis extract similar to enalapril, compared with rats exposed to NaF alone. However, serum nitric oxide (NO) decreased significantly in rats exposed to NaF alone compared with rats that received 200 mg/kg H. madagascariensis as treatment. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine increased significantly in rats exposed to NaF alone compared with rats that received 200 mg/kg H. madagascariensis as treatment. The histopathology of the cardiac tissue of the rat exposed to NaF alone showed mild hydropic and vacuolar degeneration of cardiomyocytes, while the renal tissue showed foci of markedly flattened tubular epithelial cells and congestion of interstitial blood vessels. The aforementioned lesions were ameliorated in rats treated with 200 mg/kg H. Madagascariensis. In conclusion, H. madagascariensis had potent antihypertensive effect in rats. The effect was probably mediated via the alleviation of oxidative stress in cardiac and renal tissues. Key words: Harungana madagascariensis, Antioxidant activity, Oxidative Stress, Hypotensive effect, Sodium fluoride.
