ABSTRACT
Black men are disproportionately burdened by hypertension and prostate cancer (PCa), and some cohorts suggest hypertension is associated with increased PCa risk. We investigated the association of hypertension and antihypertensive use with total (N = 889; 290 Black, 599 White) and fatal (N = 127; 42 Black, 85 White) PCa risk in 6658 (1578 Black, 5080 White) men in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study. In adjusted Cox models, time-updated untreated stage 1 hypertension (systolic/diastolic blood pressure 130-139/80-89 mmHg) was associated with a higher risk of fatal PCa compared to untreated normal blood pressure (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.95; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.03-3.70). Compared to untreated normal/elevated blood pressure (combined given few events in those with untreated normal blood pressure), the association was significant in Black (HR = 3.35; 95% CI = 1.27-8.83), but not White (HR = 1.21; 95% CI = 0.58-2.55) men. Ever antihypertensive use was associated with a lower risk of fatal PCa compared to never use (HR = 0.52; 95% CI = 0.31-0.87), including short-term (< 10 years) and long-term (310 years) use (p-trend = 0.02) with similar inverse associations in Black and White men. Hypertension and antihypertensive use were not significantly associated with total PCa. The positive association of untreated stage 1 hypertension and fatal PCa warrants additional confirmation, especially in Black men, and characterization of the underlying mechanism.
