| الوصف: | Background: Despite high projected burden, hypertension incidence data are lacking in South Asian population. We measured hypertension prevalence and incidence in the Center for cArdio-metabolic Risk Reduction in South Asia (CARRS) adult cohort. Methods: The CARRS Study recruited representative samples of Chennai, Delhi, and Karachi in 2010/11, and socio-demographic and risk factor data were obtained using a standard common protocol. Blood pressure (BP) was measured in the sitting position using electronic sphygmomanometer both at baseline and two year follow-up. Hypertension and control were defined by JNC 7 criteria. Results: In total, 16,287 participants were recruited (response rate = 94.3%) and two year follow-up was completed in 12,504 (follow-up rate = 79.2%). Hypertension was present in 30.1% men (95% CI: 28.7–31.5) and 26.8% women (25.7–27.9) at baseline. BP was controlled in 1 in 7 subjects with hypertension. At two years, among non-hypertensive adults, average systolic BP increased 2.6 mm Hg (95% CI: 2.1–3.1), diastolic BP 0.7 mm Hg (95% CI: 0.4–1.0), and 1 in 6 developed hypertension (82.6 per 1000 person years, 95% CI: 80.8–84.4). Risk for developing hypertension was associated with age, low socio-economic status, current alcohol use, overweight, pre-hypertension, and dysglycemia. Risk of incident hypertension was highest (RR = 2.95, 95% CI: 2.53–3.45) in individuals with pre-hypertension compared to normal BP. Collectively, 4 modifiable risk factors (pre-hypertension, overweight, dysglycemia, and alcohol use) accounted for 78% of the population attributable risk of incident hypertension. Conclusion: High prevalence and poor control of hypertension, along with high incidence, in South Asian adult population call for urgent preventive measures. |
