Is there any association between blood pressure and education level? The CroHort Study
The aim of this study was to explore how the association of 5-year cumulative incidence of arterial hypertension (further 5-CIAH) and education varies according to body weight, age and sex. The study was conducted on cohort of 1383 subjects aged 18+ with initially normal blood pressure (systolic < 140 mmHg and diastolic < 90 mmHg, and not taking medication). Data were collected in 2003 and repeated in 2008. Methods of descriptive statistics, chi2…
Risk of Angina Pectoris, Non-fatal Myocardial Infarction and Non-fatal Stroke Among Hypertensives
Aim of this study was to investigate association of controlled and uncontrolled hypertension with angina pectoris, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal cerebrovascular insult on a cohort from Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort). Odds for angina pectoris, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal cerebrovascular insult were calculated for 227 respondents with controlled hypertension and 1,287 respondents with uncontrolled hyp…
Five-year Cumulative Incidence of Hypertension in Adult Croatian Population
The aim of this study was to establish a five-year cumulative incidence of arterial hypertension (hereinafter 5-CIAH) and its dependence on initial prehypertension, body weight, age and gender "Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort)" data collected during 2003 and 2008 for the 1383 subjects aged 18 + with initially normal blood pressure (systolic < 140 mmHg and diastolic < 90 mmHg, and not taking medication) was analised. Methods of descrip…
Association of Hypertension with Long-term Overweight Status and Weight Gain
Overweight is associated with hypertension, but longitudinal studies on the effect of weight gain on blood pressure are relatively rare. Aim of this study was to investigate association of long-term overweight status as well as of becoming overweight with hypertension. Odds of hypertension in 2008 were calculated for 1,383 respondents from Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort) who had normal blood pressure in 2003. The results showed that …
The Croatian Adult Health Cohort Study (CroHort) – Background, Methodology & Perspectives
Health interview surveys are important source of health information. All previous adult population-based health interview surveys in Croatia until CroHort, were one-off projects with very limited possibility of data comparison. CroHort enabled repeated survey of CAHS 2003 respondents with almost identical questionnaire, thus providing comparable data on trends of different risk factors as well as their relation to the specific outcomes. Next foll…
Association of BMI and nutritional habits with hypertension in the adult population of Croatia
Objective The purpose of the present study was to investigate the distribution of hypertension, its nutritional and other determinants and their association in Croatia. Design Population-based, cross-sectional study. Setting Croatia. Subjects Representative random sample of 9070 adults (18 years and older) from all Croatian regions, selected using multistage sampling. Results Overall prevalence of hypertension (arterial blood pressure ≥140/90 mmH…
