“…The current study found obesity was a significant risk for developing hypertension than those with normal or overweight subjects, which supported similar findings of study conducted in Khartoum [ 22 ] and in the KSA [ 31 ]. Obesity is not only linked to the risk of hypertension, but it can also predict uncontrolled hypertension [ 43 ].…”

“…The prevalence of hypertension among patients with DM in this study was 45.6%. A similar prevalence (47.7%) of hypertension in patients with DM was reported in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan [ 22 ]. The prevalence of hypertension among patients with DM in our study (45.6%) was slightly lower than among DM patients in Nigeria (54.2%) [ 10 ] and Ethiopia (59.5%) [ 20 ], and it was much lower than among DM patients in Cameroon (86.2%) [ 21 ].…”

“…In this study, older patients with DM were at a 1.03 times higher risk for developing hypertension than younger patients. Several previous studies (e.g., in the capital of Sudan [ 22 ], Ethiopia [ 20 ], South Africa [ 15 ], and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia [KSA]) [ 31 ] have reported that older patients with DM were at a higher risk for hypertension than patients without DM. Vascular remodeling, endothelial dysfunction, and vascular stiffness, which are common features in hypertension, are increased by aging [ 32 ].…”

Background Hypertension and diabetes mellitus (DM), are highly prevalent worldwide health non-communicable diseases, and are associated with chronic complications. The co-existence of both conditions accelerates the related complications and increases morbidities and mortalities. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Nahr an Nil State (River Nile State) in Sudan between May and August 2018 to identify the prevalence of hypertension and risk factors among patients with DM in that region. Results The median (interquartile) age of the 1,973 enrolled patients was 58.0 (50.0‒65.0) years, and 818 (45.6%) were males. The median (interquartile) duration of diabetes was 5.0 (3.0‒9.0) years. Of the 1,973 enrolled participants, 21.7%, 1.3%, 37.1%, and 39.9% were normal weight, underweight, overweight, and obese, respectively. Of 1,973 854 (47.6%) patients also had hypertension. Logistic regression analyses showed that elderly patients (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.03, 95%; confidence interval [CI] = 1.02‒1.04), males (AOR = 2.96, 95%; CI = 2.15‒4.07), employed patients (AOR = 1.92, 95%; CI = 1.38‒2.70), obese patients (AOR = 1.59, 95%; CI = 1.21‒2.08), and patients with diabetic foot (DF) (AOR = 2.45, 95%; CI = 1.72‒3.47) were at higher risk for hypertension. Conversely, patients with Type 2 DM (T2DM) (AOR = 0.63, 95%; CI = 0.50‒0.80) were at lower risk for hypertension. There was no significant association between overweight, uncontrolled DM, and hypertension. Conclusion This study showed a high prevalence of hypertension among patients with DM. Notably, older age, male gender, employment, duration of DM, DF, underweight, and obesity were significant predictors of hypertension among patients with DM.

“…29 Moreover, a Canadian study showed that excess body weight and living a sedentary lifestyle predispose an individual to hypertension and its complications. 63 In this study, participants with obesity were 7 times more likely to have complications than those underweight participants (AOR = 7.229, 95% CI = 1.436, 36.394, p = 0.016), similar to the current finding other studies reported that obesity was a significant risk for developing hypertension than those with normal or overweight subjects, 64 Besides another study found that overweight subjects had a two-fold risk of being hypertensive and obese had more than the three-fold risk for the same in comparison to underweight subjects. 36 Furthermore, other studies showed that obesity (BMI >25) is 2.62 times more risk for developing hypertension as compared to those not having BMI < 25.…”

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) were non-communicable diseases that remain the leading cause of disability and death in the world. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of hypertension complications among hypertensive patients at University of Gondar comprehensive specialized referral hospital. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the prevalence and associated factors of hypertension complications, from 1st June 2020 to 30th August 2020. Interview-guided self-administered questionnaire and a chart review were used for data collection. Statistical significance was set at a 95% confidence interval using a Pvalue of ≤0.05 as a cutoff point. Results: Out of 428 hypertensive patients, 261 (61.0%) were males. They were from 19 to 84 years age group and the mean age of participants was 53.55 ± 16.65 years. Participants with a family history of hypertension were 5 times more likely to develop complications than those with no family history of hypertension (AOR = 5.372, 95% CI = 2.378, 12.134, p = 0.001). Participants who had sedentary physical activity were 4 times more likely to develop complications than those who had vigorous physical activity (AOR = 4.049, 95% CI = 1.463, 11.206, p = 0.007). Participants who had high waist circumference were 7 times (AOR = 7.229, 95% CI = 1.436, 36.394, p = 0.016) more likely to develop complications than those who had low waist circumference. Conclusion: In this study, being female, illiterate participants, having a family history of hypertension, doing sedentary exercise and obesity are factors associated with hypertension complications.
