“…Both aimed to verify the prevalence of metabolic syndrome, using SBP 130mmHg and DBP 85mmHg to identify HBP (suggestive of a clinical diagnosis of arterial hypertension). These cutoff points were different than the ones we used here 28,29 . The first study included 82 adults and showed a 24.2% HBP rate in men and 28.6% in women 29 .…”

This cross-sectional study describes the prevalence of high blood pressure (HBP; measured at one setting, and suggestive of a clinical diagnosis of arterial hypertension) and mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and their associations with socio-demographic and anthropometric variables among 355 Kaingang adults (≥ 20 years) on the Xapecó Indigenous Land in Brazil. Weight, height, waist circumference (WC), SBP, and DBP were measured and socio-demographic data were collected. Prevalence of HBP was 53.2% (95%CI: 45.3; 61.1) in men and 40.7% (95%CI: 33.8; 47.6) in women. In women, age and WC were directly associated with HBP; age was associated with SBP and schooling with DBP. In men, HBP was statistically associated with high body mass index (BMI) and tile floor in the home (as a socioeconomic proxy); BMI and WC were associated with SBP; BMI and WC were associated with DBP. The study highlights the need for measures to control risk factors for HBP, especially due to its relevance for cardiovascular diseases and their consequences.

“…High prevalence rates of excess weight have also been found in indigenous peoples in Brazil 5,11,27,28,31 . The highest HBP and the highest mean SBP and DBP were in overweight or obese individuals, although this difference was only statistically significant in men.…”

“…One study (19) evaluated hypertension compared to the two cutoff points mentioned above. It is noteworthy that one study (30) established the largest cutoff as higher than or equal to 130/85 mmHg, and one study (10) showed no diagnostic criteria. It is also noteworthy that in seven studies (11,23,(26)(27)(28)30,33) , the presence of previous diagnosis of hypertension and/or treatment with antihypertensive medication were considered in addition to blood pressure levels.…”

Objective: Evaluating the evidence of hypertension prevalence among indigenous populations in Brazil through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods: A search was performed by two reviewers, with no restriction of date or language in the databases of PubMed, LILACS, SciELO, Virtual Health Library and Capes Journal Portal. Also, a meta-regression model was designed in which the last collection year of each study was used as a moderating variable. Results: 23 articles were included in the review. No hypertension was found in indigenous populations in 10 studies, and its prevalence was increasing and varied, reaching levels of up to 29.7%. Combined hypertension prevalence in Indigenous from the period of 1970 to 2014 was 6.2% (95% CI, 3.1% -10.3%). In the regression, the value of the odds ratio was 1.12 (95% CI, 1.07 -1.18; p <0.0001), indicating a 12% increase every year in the probability of an indigenous person presenting hypertension. Conclusion: There has been a constant increase in prevalence despite the absence of hypertension in about half of the studies, probably due to changes in cultural, economic and lifestyle habits, resulting from indigenous interaction with non-indigenous society.
