[Status and Influencing Factors of Hypertension in the Elderly Aged 60 and Above in Mianyang].

Objective To understand the prevalence and influencing factors of hypertension among the elderly aged 60 years and above in Mianyang City,Sichuan Province,so as to provide clues for targeted prevention and control of hypertension. Methods A total of 115 775 permanent residents aged 60 and above screened out from Mianyang demonstration sites from October 2017 to April 2019 were investigated by questionnaire and physical examination,and the data of personal basic information,lifestyle,body height,body weight,waist circumference,and blood pressure were collected.SPSS 22.0 was used for descriptive analysis,single factor analysis,and Logistic regression analysis. Results The prevalence rate of hypertension in the elderly aged 60 years and above in Mianyang was 50.60%.Specifically,the prevalence rates of hypertension in men and women were 50.27% and 50.85%,respectively.The prevalence rate of hypertension increased with the increase in age([Formula: see text]=370.199,P<0001).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors of hypertension included age of 70-79 years(OR=1.327,95%CI=1.292-1.363,P<0.001),the age of 80 years and above(OR=1.455,95%CI=1.386-1.527,P<0.001),widowhood(OR=1.343,95%CI=1.296-1.392,P<0.001),divorce(OR=1.255,95%CI=1.033-1.525,P=0.022),overweight(OR=1.431,95%CI=1.391-1.473,P<0.001),obesity(OR=2.171,95%CI=2.076-2.270,P<0.001),waist-to-height ratio>0.5(OR=1.317,95%CI=1.281-1.354,P<0.001),history of diabetes(OR=1.865,95%CI=1.791-1.941,P<0.001),history of smoking(OR=1.107,95%CI=1.068-1.148,P<0.001),and history of drinking(OR=1.950,95%CI=1.894-2.009,P<0.001).Living in urban-rural fringe areas(OR=0.628,95%CI=0.594-0.664,P<0.001),education background of junior high school and above(OR=0.942,95%CI=0.912-0.974,P<0.001),and low body weight(OR=0.785,95%CI=0.742-0.830,P<0.001) were protective factors for hypertension. Conclusions More than 50% of the elderly aged 60 years and above in Mianyang suffer from hypertension.The elderly with advanced age,widowhood,divorce,overweight,obesity,waist-to-height ratio>0.5,diabetes history,smoking history,and drinking history are the high-risk groups of hypertension.

[Status and Influencing Factors of New Hepatitis B Virus Infection in Anzhou District,Mianyang City].

Objective To understand the status quo and analyze the influencing factors of new hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection in Anzhou district,Mianyang city,Sichuan province,so as to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of hepatitis B prevention and control measures.Methods This study enrolled 71 418 residents of Anzhou District,Mianyang City,who participated in the physical examination of "Mianyang Comprehensive Prevention and Control Demonstration Study of Major Infectious Diseases" in 2013 and were tested negative for the hepatitis B surface antigen.The residents were followed for 5 years and underwent serological test again in 2018.The new infection rate of HBV was calculated and the influencing factors were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results In 2018,the new infection rate of HBV among 71 418 residents in Anzhou district was 1.61%.The new infection rate varied with the differences in gender,age,occupation,marital status,smoking status,drinking frequency,place of residence,family history of hepatitis B,and history of hepatitis B vaccination(P<0.001).Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that male(OR=1.29,95%CI=1.12-1.48,P<0.001),farmer(OR=2.01,95%CI=1.39-2.90,P<0.001),and family history of hepatitis B(OR=1.97,95%CI=1.44-2.70,P<0.001)were the independent risk factors for new HBV infection(P<0.001).Conclusions The new infection rate of HBV is high in Anzhou district of Mianyang city.Males,farmers,and those with family history of hepatitis B are high-risk groups of HBV infection.
