Association between clustering of hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, alcohol drinking, overweight and hypertension

Objective To explore the association between the clustering of hyperlipidemia,hyperglycemia,alcohol drinking,overweight and hypertension in Mongolian people in rural and animal husbandry area.Methods Mongolian residents aged 20 or more in 32 villages in Kezuohou Banner and Naiman Banner,Inner Mongolia,were served as the study subjects.Lifestyle risk factors including cigarette smoking,alcohol drinking were investigated and body weight,height,waist circumference,hip circumference and blood pressure were measured,and blood glucose,blood lipids were examined with standardized methods for all participants.Associations between the risk factors studied and hypertension were analyzed with Logistic regression.Results After adjusting for age and gender,the odds ratios(95% CIs)of hypertension associated with the clustering of hyperglycemia,hyperlipidemia,alcohol drinking and overweight were 11297(1.035,1.624),3.064(2.393,3.923),3.490(2.486,4.900)and 3.777(1.781,8.013),respectively,compared with non-existence of the risk factor.Odds ratios of the clustering of two risk factors or more were all more than that of one risk factor.Conclusion The risk of hypertension was increased with the number of clustering of risk factors in Mongolian people.
