“…Both types of obesity were associated with AH (p < 0.001), and this kind of finding was observed in other states of the federation 5,36,37 . However, abdominal obesity has been pointed out as being more harmful to health then overall obesity.…”

ABSTRACT:Introduction: Hypertension is a chronic disease that requires special attention in identifying comorbidities or risk factors including inactivity and obesity. Considering that a large proportion of the Brazilian population is hypertensive, obese, and sedentary, the relationship among these variables in the context of the public health system is unclear. Objective: To assess the association among physical activity, markers of adiposity, and hypertension in adult users of the public healthcare system in the city of Bauru, São Paulo, Brazil. Methods: The study was conducted in five Basic Health Units in Bauru, São Paulo, and consisted of 963 patients. Data were collected from habitual physical activity and previous (childhood and adolescence), education, purchasing power and anthropometric markers of overall and abdominal obesity. Results: The incidence of hypertension was 76.8%. Significant associations were found among sedentarism, presence of total and abdominal obesity, with the higher incidence of hypertension. It was also observed that the magnitude of association between hypertension and adiposity increased with decreased involvement in physical activity. Conclusion: Further investigations are needed to analyze the occurrence of overweight and obesity in people suffering from chronic diseases in order to prevent future complications.

“…Other studies have also shown no differences in these variables, even between the normotense and hypertense groups. [28][29][30][31][32] Knowing that alterations provoked in the blood vessels by DM and deslipidemia gradually settled down, associated to the fact that there is no available information concerning the time of diagnosis of these risk factors in each of the individuals, it is possible to justify the lack of association in our results. Sharabi et al 21 found no difference in blood glucose levels, total cholesterol and triglyceride levels between the normoreactive and the hyperreactive groups.…”

Exaggerated blood pressure response during exercise treadmill testing: functional and hemodynamic features, and risk factors

et al. 2012

The factors which contribute to an exaggerated blood pressure response (EBPR) during the exercise treadmill test (ETT) are not wholly understood. The association between the insertion/deletion polymorphisms of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and M235T of the angiotensinogen with EBPR during ETT still remains unstudied. To identify and compare the risk factors for hypertension between normotensive subjects with EBPR and those who exhibit a normal curve of blood pressure (BP) during ETT. In a series of EBPR cases from a historical cohort of normotensive individuals, a univariate analysis was performed to estimate the association of the studied factors with BP behavior during ETT. Additionally, logistic multivariate regression was conducted to analyze the joint effects of the variables. P-values above 0.05 were considered statistically significant. From a total of 10 027 analyzed examinations, only 219 met the criteria employed to define EBPR, which resulted in a prevalence of 12.6%. For the systolic component of the BP, hyperreactive subjects displayed a mean age and body mass index (BMI) significantly higher than the others (P¼0.002 and o0.001, respectively). No association was observed between the polymorphisms cited above and EBPR. An analysis of the joint effect of variables has indicated that only age (Po 0.001) and BMI (P¼0.001) were specifically associated with systolic BP during exercise. Age and BMI were the only factors that independently influenced EBPR during ETT.

“…These factors can be divided in two categories: the changeable ones (environmental and behavior), such as smoking, high serum cholesterol, systemic arterial hypertension, physical inactivity, diabetes, obesity and stress; and the unchangeable ones (genetic and biological), for example: heredity, sex and age 2,3 . Studies have shown high prevalence of individuals with at least one RF 2,4 , which highlights the multifactorial origin of the CVD and reinforces the need of implementation of actions which aim at health promotion, as well as prevention of these diseases 3,5 . Among the RF, we can mention sedentarism, which, in Brazil, according to the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics, affects about 80.8% of the adults and its association with other RF may lead to the development of CVD 6 .…”

“…Individuals who self-declared have been smokers for over one year and daily ingested alcohol were considered positive for these factors. Diabetes mellitus, total cholesterol and triglycerides were considered present when the subjects had medical diagnosis of such factors and/or made use of medication specific to these conditions 2,4,5 . In order to assess the presence of stress, the inventory of stress symptoms by Lipp (ISSL) was used 14 .…”

Introduction: Physical activity (PA) practice presents an inverse relation with risk factors (RF) of cardiovascular disease, with positive effects in quality of life and other physical and psychological variables. However, the benefits of daily activities have not been established. Objective: To investigate the prevalence and association of cardiovascular risk factors and physical activity in different categories of patients under a cardiac rehabilitation program. Methods: 69 participants of a cardiac rehabilitation program were evaluated and weight, height and blood pressure were checked. Afterwards, the patients answered questionnaires to assess self-reported physical activity level, stress level and verify the presence of RF. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratio. Results: High prevalence of RF was found in the subjects, age and hypertension were more prevalent while smoking and stress had lower prevalence. Most individuals were classified as sedentary, except for locomotion PA (LPA). Conclusion: That there is high prevalence of RF in patients attending cardiac rehabilitation programs, while sedentary ones are more likely to have the RF hypertension, obesity, smoking, alcohol and stress than the active ones, depending on the PA category.

Abstract: Background: The available studies have not fully analyzed the several factors involved in the genesis of hypertension (HT), especially the association among blood pressure, urinary sodium excretion and renal dysfunction.
