Uncontrolled hypertension has a high prevalence and is related to numerous negative health outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with the lack of blood pressure control in hypertensive Brazilians treated in public and private services. This is an analytical, multicentric, and national cross-sectional study, carried out with adult hypertensive patients, monitored in 45 outpatient clinics (September 2013 to October 2015) in a prospective record interview, clinical, and anthropometric assessment. Outcome variables included uncontrolled pressure (systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg). Simple and multiple logistic regression analyses were performed. Two thousand six hundred forty-three participants were assessed with a mean age of 61.6 ± 11.9 years, 55.7% of women, and 46.4% with uncontrolled blood pressure (BP).

“…The results obtained from the study showed that 70 (35%) women were overweight in terms of BMI. In a study conducted in Kerman, BMII was the most common risk factor for cardiovascular diseases [20]. Changes in lifestyle such as unhealthy nutrition and decreased physical activity have caused women to be overweight.…”

The existence of modifiable risk factors of cardiovascular diseases of mothers before pregnancy is associated with the risk of preterm childbirth and low birth weight. This study aimed at determining the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases in pregnant women referred to Golestan Hospital in Ahvaz. This is a descriptive-analytical study performed in a cross-sectional way in 2020. The study population consisted of 200 pregnant women referred to Golestan Hospital in Ahvaz. Because of the restricted size of the statistical population, no sampling was done. For purpose of data collection, a two-part questionnaire (questionnaire and laboratory findings) was used. Data analysis was done using linear regression, t-test, and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) at sig level of 0.05 by SPSS22 software. The majority of pregnant women (45%) were in the age range of 30-40 years old. The highest portion of risk factors of cardiovascular diseases was respectively associated with smoking in the family (77.5%), smoking by the person (60%), history of hyperlipidemia (47.5%), and stress (42.5%). The lowest portion causing the disease was associated with inadequate nutritional behavior (30%), diabetes (35%), hypertension (37.5%), and history of cardiovascular disease in first-degree relatives (40%). According to obtained results and high prevalence of risk factors of cardiovascular diseases, especially smoking and hyperlipidemia in pregnant women, it is essential to make careful plans for continuous training to change the lifestyle such as good nutrition, exercising, and regular physical activity as effective solutions to decrease the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases.

Introduction: Hypertension is the most important public health problem in developing countries. This study aimed to investigate factors associated with medication adherence of hypertension based on the health belief model. Method: This was an analytical cross-sectional study. In this study, 403 hypertensive patients in Shahdad and Andoohjerd of Kerman were selected by census method. Data collection tools were a researcher-made questionnaire including the Health Belief Model (HBM) and Moriskyself-report questionnaire. Cronbach alph was 0.9. Then the data were analysed by SPSS vesrsion 24 and the significance level was P< 0.05. mean (SD), Frequency (percent) used to descriptive statistics and two Independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Binary Logistic Regression were used for data analysis. All statistical analysis were done in SPSS 19 with significant level of 5 %. Results: More than half of the patients (57.1%) had poor medication adherence. Most of the subjects (84.1%) used less than three drugs. Chi square test results showed a significant relationship between drug compliance and age group, education and job results of multiple logistic regression showed, three factors of awareness (OR=1.116, p =0.016), cues to action (OR=0.68, p =0.030) and perceived barriers (OR=0.83, p=<0.001) had significant effect on Medication Adherence . Conclusion: Effective interventions based on the health belief model and with emphasis on raising awareness, practicing guide and removing perceived barriers can increase medication adherence in patients with hypertension.
