Abstract
Background The clinical characteristics and risk factors of all-cause mortality in young hospitalized patients with comorbid coronary heart disease and hypertension (CAD + HT) are not well-characterized. Method A total of 2288 hospitalized CAD patients (age<45 years) with or without hypertension in the Chinese PLA General Hospital from August 5, 2008 to June 22, 2018 were conducted. The risk factors of all-cause mortality were estimated in young CAD + HT patients by COX models. Results The overall prevalence of hypertension in young CAD patients was 50.83% (n = 1163). CAD + HT patients had older age, higher heart rate, BMI, uric acid, triglyceride and lower level of eGFR and HDL-C than CAD patients (P < 0.05). The proportion of cardiovascular-related comorbidities (including obesity, diabetes mellitus, hyperuricemia and chronic kidney disease [CKD]) in the CAD + HT group was significantly higher than that in CAD group (P < 0.0001). The risk of all-cause mortality was higher in CAD + HT patients, although after adjusting for all covariates, there was no significant difference between the two groups. Furthermore, CKD (HR, 3.662; 95% CI, 1.545-8.682) and heart failure (HF) (HR, 3.136; 95%CI, 1.276-7.703) were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality and RAASi (HR, 0.378; 95%CI, 0.174-0.819) had a beneficial impact in CAD + HT patients. Conclusions Hypertension was highly prevalent in young CAD patients. Young CAD + HT patients had more cardiovascular metabolic risk factors, more cardiovascular-related comorbidities and higher risk of all-cause mortality. CKD and HF were the risk factors, while RAASi was a protective factor, of all-cause mortality in CAD + HT patients.

Abstract
Limited evidence exists on the effect of submicronic particulate matter (PM1) on hypertension hospitalization. Evidence based on causal inference and large cohorts is even more scarce. In 2015, 36,271 participants were enrolled in South China and followed up through 2020. Each participant was assigned single-year, lag0-1, and lag0-2 moving average concentration of PM1 and fine inhalable particulate matter (PM2.5) simulated based on satellite data at a 1-km resolution. We used an inverse probability weighting approach to balance confounders and utilized a marginal structural Cox model to evaluate the underlying causal links between PM1 exposure and hypertension hospitalization, with PM2.5-hypertension association for comparison. Several sensitivity studies and the analyses of effect modification were also conducted. We found that a higher hospitalization risk from both overall (HR: 1.13, 95% CI: 1.05-1.22) and essential hypertension (HR: 1.15, 95% CI: 1.06-1.25) was linked to each 1 µg/m3 increase in the yearly average PM1 concentration. At lag0-1 and lag0-2, we observed a 17%-21% higher risk of hypertension associated with PM1. The effect of PM1 was 6%-11% higher compared with PM2.5. Linear concentration-exposure associations between PM1 exposure and hypertension were identified, without safety thresholds. Women and participants that engaged in physical exercise exhibited higher susceptibility, with 4%-22% greater risk than their counterparts. This large cohort study identified a detrimental relationship between chronic PM1 exposure and hypertension hospitalization, which was more pronounced compared with PM2.5 and among certain groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the association between hypertension follow-up management and family doctor contract services, as well as to examine whether socioeconomic status (SES) had an interaction effect on this relationship among older adults in China. METHODS We used data from the sixth National Health Service Survey of Shandong Province, China, including 3,112 older adults (age ≥ 60 years) with hypertension in 2018. Logistic regression models and a margins plot were used to analyze the role of SES in the relationship between hypertension follow-up management and family doctor contract services. RESULTS The regular hypertension follow-up management rate and family doctor contracting rate were 81.8% and 70.9%, respectively, among older adults with hypertension. We found that participants with regular hypertension follow-up management were more likely to sign family doctor contract services (OR=1.28, 95%CI: 1.04, 1.58, P=0.018). The interaction effect occurred in the groups who lived in rural areas (OR=1.55, 95%CI: 1.02, 2.35), with high education level (OR=0.53, 95%CI: 0.32, 0.88) and had high incomes (OR=0.53, 95%CI: 0.35, 0.81). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggested that regular hypertension follow-up management was associated with family doctor contract services and SES influenced this relationship. Primary health care should improve the contracting rate of family doctors by strengthening follow-up management of chronic diseases. Family doctors should focus on improving services quality and enriching the content of service packages especially for older adults with higher income and education level.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to examine main risk factors of undocumented Chinese migrants living in Italy when compared with Chinese migrants registered with National Health Service (NHS). METHODS A cohort of 3435 Chinese first-generation immigrants living in Prato underwent blood pressure (BP) measurement and blood tests. Hypertension was diagnosed for BP ≥ 140/90 mmHg at 2 visits, and/or antihypertensive drug use; type 2 diabetes (T2DM) for fasting glucose ≥ 126 mg/dL at 2 visits, and/or use of hypoglycemic drugs; hypercholesterolemia (HC) for cholesterol ≥ 240 mg/dL and/or statins use. Subjects diagnosed with hypertension, T2DM, or HC unaware of their condition were considered newly diagnosed. Comparisons were performed using multivariable adjusted logistic regression analysis. RESULTS A large proportion of Chinese migrants were undocumented (1766, 51 %); newly diagnoses of risk factors were performed especially among undocumented migrants; registration with NHS was associated with higher level of awareness for hypertension and T2DM and with 6 times higher rate of treatment for T2DM. Only a small minority of subjects with high cholesterol were treated with statins. CONCLUSIONS Undocumented immigrants had high prevalence of risk factors with lower levels of awareness than migrants registered with the NHS. Health policies targeting this hard-to-reach population needs to be improved.

Abstract
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a food active component with blood-pressure-improving properties. However, the association between the variety and quantity of different sources of dietary CoQ10 and new-onset hypertension remains uncertain. We aimed to investigate the associations between the diversity and quantity of CoQ10 intake from eight major food sources and new-onset hypertension risk. A total of 11,489 participants were included. Dietary intake was evaluated via three consecutive 24 h recalls and household food inventory. The diversity score of CoQ10 sources was calculated by the sum of food groups consumed in the ideal range. Cox proportional hazard models were used for evaluating their associations with hypertension. Model performance was assessed by ROC analyses and 200-times ten-fold cross-validation. The relationships between CoQ10 and hypertension were U-shaped for meat, egg, vegetable, and fruit sources, inverse J-shaped for fish, and nut sources, and L-shaped for dairy products sources (all p-values < 0.001). A higher diversity score was associated with lower hypertension risk (HR (95% CI): 0.66 (0.64, 0.69)). The mean areas under the ROC curves for 6, 12 and 18 years were 0.81, 0.80 and 0.78, respectively. There is a negative correlation between the diversity of CoQ10 with moderate intake from different sources and new-onset hypertension. One diversity score based on CoQ10 was developed.

Abstract
Purpose Coronary artery disease (CAD) patients frequently face readmissions due to suboptimal disease management. Prediction models are pivotal for detecting early unplanned readmissions. This review offers a unified assessment, aiming to lay the groundwork for enhancing prediction models and informing prevention strategies. Methods A search through five databases (PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCOhost, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure) up to September 2023 identified studies on prediction models for coronary artery disease patient readmissions for this review. Two independent reviewers used the CHARMS checklist for data extraction and the PROBAST tool for bias assessment. Results From 12,457 records, 15 studies were selected, contributing 30 models targeting various CAD patient groups (AMI, CABG, ACS) from primarily China, the USA, and Canada. Models utilized varied methods such as logistic regression and machine learning, with performance predominantly measured by the c-index. Key predictors included age, gender, and hospital stay duration. Readmission rates in the studies varied from 4.8% to 45.1%. Despite high bias risk across models, several showed notable accuracy and calibration. Conclusion The study highlights the need for thorough external validation and the use of the PROBAST tool to reduce bias in models predicting readmission for CAD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous experimental studies have suggested that the consumption of soy isoflavones may have a potential impact on lowering blood pressure. Nevertheless, epidemiological studies have presented conflicting outcomes concerning the correlation between soy isoflavone consumption and blood pressure levels. Consequently, a comprehensive meta-analysis of all eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted to explore the influence of soy isoflavones on systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in adults. METHODS A thorough search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for relevant literature up to April 30, 2023 was conducted. RCTs involving adults that compared soy isoflavone supplementation with a placebo (the same matrix devoid of soy isoflavone) were included. The combined effect size was presented as the weighted mean difference (WMD) along with 95% confidence interval (CI), employing a fixed-effects model. RESULTS Our meta-analysis included a total of 24 studies involving 1945 participants. The results revealed a significant reduction in both SBP and DBP with soy isoflavone supplementation. Subgroup analyses suggested more pronounced reductions in SBP and DBP for interventions lasting ≥6 months, in individuals receiving mixed-type soy isoflavone, and among patients with metabolic syndrome or prehypertension. However, we did not detect significant nonlinear associations between supplementation dosage and intervention duration concerning both SBP and DBP. The overall quality of evidence was deemed moderate. CONCLUSIONS The current meta-analysis revealed that supplementation with soy isoflavones alone effectively reduces blood pressure. Additional high-quality studies are required to investigate the efficacy of blood pressure reduction through supplementation with an optimal quantity and proportion of soy isoflavone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether the Chinese heart-healthy diet (Sichuan cuisine version) (CHH diet-SC) was more expensive than the conventional Sichuan diet and explore the food groups and nutrients that mainly affected the cost of CHH diet-SC. DESIGN Cost analysis of 4-week intervention diets in the Sichuan center representing southwestern China in the CHH diet study. SETTING A multicentre, parallel-group, single-blind, randomised feeding trial evaluating the efficacy of lowering blood pressure with the cuisine-based CHH diet. PARTICIPANTS Totally, fifty-three participants with hypertension aged 25-75 years in the Sichuan center were randomised into the control group (n 26) or the CHH diet-SC group (n 27). RESULTS The CHH diet-SC was more expensive than the control diet (¥27·87 ± 2·41 v. ¥25·18 ± 2·79 equals $3·90 ± 0·34 v. $3·52 ± 0·39, P < 0·001), and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio for a 1-mm Hg systolic blood pressure reduction was ¥9·12 ($1·28). Intakes and the cost of seafood, dairy products, fruits, soybeans and nuts, whole grains and mixed beans were higher for the CHH diet-SC than for the control diet (P < 0·001). Intakes of vitamin B1, vitamin B6, vitamin C, Mg and phosphorus were positively correlated with the cost (P < 0·05). CONCLUSIONS The CHH diet-SC costs more than the conventional Sichuan diet, partly due to the high cost of specific food groups. Positive correlations between the intakes of vitamin B1, vitamin B6, vitamin C, Mg, phosphorus and the dietary cost could be a direction to adjust the composition within the food groups to reduce the cost of the CHH diet-SC.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDDue to the long time interval between exposure and outcome, it is difficult to infer the causal relationship between educational attainment (EA) and common chronic diseases. Therefore, we utilized Mendelian randomization (MR) to predict the causal relationships of EA with hypertension and type-2 diabetes (T2DM). METHODSA two-sample MR analysis was conducted using genome-wide association studies (GWASs) combined with inferential measurements. A GWAS meta-analysis including 1,131,881 European individuals was used to identify instruments for EA. Hypertension and T2DM data were obtained from a Finnish database. MR analyses were performed using inverse-variance weighted meta-analysis (IVW), weighted median regression, MR‒Egger regression, simple mode regression, weighted mode regression and the MR-Pleiotropy RESidual Sum and Outlier test. Sensitivity analyses were further performed using the leave-one-out method to test the robustness of our findings. RESULTSUsing the MR approach, our results showed that EA was significantly associated with a reduced risk of hypertension (OR = 0.63; P = 2.94 × 10-47; [95% CI: 0.59, 0.67]) and type-2 diabetes (OR = 0.59; P = 1.25 × 10-16; [95% CI: 0.52, 0.67]). CONCLUSIONSThis study showed that EA is causally linked to the risk of chronic diseases, including high blood pressure and T2DM.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the long-term pattern of plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) trajectories and to explore the relationship between PAC trajectory patterns and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in patients with hypertension. Participants were surveyed three times between 2010 and 2016, and latent mixed modeling was employed to determine the trajectory of PAC over the exposure period (2010-2016). A Cox regression analysis was used to examine the association between PAC trajectory patterns and the risk of CVD (stroke and myocardial infarction). Hazard ratios (HRs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated and reported. During a median follow-up of 4.10 (3.37-4.50) years, 82 incident CVD cases (33 myocardial infarction cases and 49 stroke cases) were identified. Among all three PAC models, the high-stability PAC pattern exhibited the highest risk of CVD. After full adjustment for all covariables, HRs were 2.19 (95% CI 1.59-3.01) for the moderate-stable pattern and 2.56 (95% CI 1.68-3.91) for the high-stable pattern in comparison to the low-stable pattern. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses verified this association. The presence of a high-stable PAC trajectory pattern is associated with an elevated risk of CVD in hypertensive patients. Nevertheless, more studies are warranted to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM To explore the association of triglyceride glucose index-body mass index (TyG-BMI) and its dynamic changes with the risk of hypertension among middle-aged and older Chinese adults based on a large-sample prospective cohort study. METHODS AND RESULTS Participants over 45 years old and without a history of hypertension were included from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study registry. Data were collected in 2011 and followed up in 2015. TyG index and TyG-BMI were calculated as ln (triglyceride∗glucose/2) and TyG index∗BMI, respectively. We performed multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify the relationship between the TyG index, TyG-BMI and their dynamic change and the risk of hypertension. In the analyses, 3885 participants were included. After 4 years of follow-up, 1705 (43.89 %) patients developed hypertension. Logistic regression analysis revealed that after adjustments for all potential confounding factors, the highest tertile of baseline TyG index, baseline TyG-BMI, and the dynamic change in TyG-BMI were each associated with higher hypertension incidence than the lowest tertile: OR,1.38, 95 % CI, 1.17-1.63, OR,1.28, 95 % CI, 1.06-1.56, and OR, 1.26, 95 % CI, 1.07-1.48, respectively, whereas TyG index change was not. Moreover, the risk of hypertension increased with increasing levels of baseline TyG index (P for trend < 0.001), baseline TyG-BMI (P for trend = 0.013), and the dynamic change in TyG-BMI (P for trend = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS The baseline TyG index, baseline TyG-BMI, and the dynamic changes in TyG-BMI were significantly and positively associated with the risk of hypertension in Chinese adults older than 45 years.

Abstract
Background The level at which cumulative blood pressure (BP) can increase the risk of ASCVD in different age groups remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association of 10-year cumulative BP levels with the long-term risk of ASCVD of different age groups. Methods Cumulative BP exposure was assessed using the time-weighted average (TWA) BP divided into four BP groups. The participants were also divided into four groups according to their baseline age (<50, 50-59, 60-69, or ≥70 years). The association between TWA BP and the risk of ASCVD was assessed by age group using multivariate Cox models. The China-PAR prediction model was used to assess the ability of TWA BP to predict ASCVD. Results In the group aged <50 years, the hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the risk of ASCVD were 2.66 (1.04-6.80), 3.38 (1.54-7.43), and 3.13 (1.36-7.24) for the elevated BP, stage 1 hypertension, and stage 2 hypertension groups, respectively, when compared with the normal BP group. There was a significant difference in the risk of ASCVD between the age groups, with participants aged <50 years having the highest risk, followed by those aged 50-59, 60-69, and ≥70 years. Conclusions The risk of ASCVD with high cumulative BP exposure was age-dependent, with a gradual decrease in risk with increasing age.

Abstract
Objective There is little evidence of the influence of living alone on hypertension risk among men 80 years or older. Additionally, the influence of living alone duration on hypertension risk lacks thorough investigation. Hence, this cohort study examines living alone and its duration's link to hypertension risk in this specific group. Methods We included 2009 older men aged ≥80 years without hypertension from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey in the 2008 wave. Follow-up was conducted in the 2011 wave. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models estimated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess hypertension risk related to living alone and living alone time. Results We included 2,009 older men, with a mean age of 90.7 years (standard deviation: 6.8). Over a median follow-up of 2.9 (1.3-3.0) years, 573 participants (28.5%) developed hypertension. Living alone was significantly associated with a higher hypertension risk than living with family (HR: 1.42; 95% CI 1.11-1.80). When compared to living with family, the hypertension risk was increased in the first quartile of living alone time (0-6.1 years) (HR: 1.76; 95% CI 1.16-2.66), the second quartile (6.1-10.6 years) (HR: 1.56; 95% CI 1.07-2.29), and the third quartile (10.6-19.3 years) (HR: 1.66; 95% CI 1.08-2.55). Surprisingly, no significant association was found in the fourth quartile (≥19.3 years) with hypertension risk. Stratified and Interaction analyses indicated no significant interaction effects between subgroups. Sensitivity analyses yielded consistent results. Conclusion Living alone was independently associated with an increased risk of hypertension in older men. The highest risk was found in those with the least time alone. These findings imply that social isolation and lack of companionship could be pivotal in hypertension development. Furthermore, the study highlights the need to consider living alone duration when assessing its impact on health outcomes.

Abstract
The authors aim to assess the correlation between hypertension and the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and its associated indices, and to compare their abilities to identify hypertension. Four thousand eight hundred and sixty-six non-hypertensive participants were enrolled from the China National Health Survey in 2009. The data on new-onset hypertension were gathered in both 2011 and 2015. The TyG index and its associated indices were derived from the fasting triglyceride, blood glucose levels, and anthropometric parameters. Multivariate logistic regression analyses and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were used. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for the new-onset hypertension for the TyG-waist-to-height ratio (TyG-WHtR), TyG-waist circumference (TyG-WC), TyG-waist-to-hip ratio (TyG-WHR), TyG-body mass index (TyG-BMI), and TyG index were 1.379 (1.230-1.546), 1.002 (1.001-1.003), 1.156 (1.069-1.251), 1.007 (1.005-1.009), and 1.187 (1.051-1.341), respectively. In addition, comparing the lowest quartile (Q1) group with the highest quartile (Q4), the adjusted OR and 95% CI for the new-onset hypertension were found to be 1.86 (1.48-2.35), 1.93 (1.53-2.43), 1.71 (1.36-2.16), 2.00 (1.60-2.50), and 1.49 (1.19-1.88) for TyG-WHtR, TyG-WC, TyG-WHR, TyG-BMI, and TyG index, respectively, among all participants. The TyG-WHtR had the largest area under the curve (AUC) for hypertension (AUC, 0.628; 95% CI, 0.614-0.641) in all participants. Stratified analysis also indicated that the TyG-WHtR exhibited the greatest AUC in both males (AUC, 0.608; 95% CI, 0.587-0.629) and females (AUC, 0.648; 95% CI, 0.629-0.666). In conclusions, the TyG index and its associated indices were positively associated with hypertension. Among these indices, TyG-WHtR was the most valuable indicator for predicting hypertension.

Abstract
PURPOSE Previous studies have indicated that the prevalence rate of hypertension in adolescents is high, but it has not received much attention and the influencing factors are unclear, especially in Yunnan Province, China. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cluster sampling method was used to investigate 4781 freshmen in a college in Kunming, Yunnan Province from November to December. Demographic and lifestyle data were collected using questionnaires, and height, weight and blood pressure were measured. Decision tree model of hypertension in college students was established by Chi-square automatic interactive detection method. RESULTS Prevalence of prehypertension of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were detected in 33.9% and 32.1%, respectively. Prevalence of hypertension of SBP and DBP was detected in 1.2% and 7.2%, respectively. The hypertension and prehypertension decision tree of SBP has gender (χ2 = 728.64, p < .001) at the first level and body mass index (BMI) (boys: χ2 = 55.98, p < .001; girls: χ2 = 79.58, p < .001) at the second level. The hypertension and prehypertension decision tree of DBP has gender (χ2 = 381.83, p < .001) at the first level, BMI (boys: χ2 = 40.54, p < .001; girls: χ2 = 48.79, p < .001) at the second level, only children (χ2 = 6.43, p = .04) and red wine consumption (χ2 = 8.17, p = .017) at the third level. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that gender, BMI, only children and red wine consumption were the main factors affecting hypertension in college students in southwest border areas of China.

Abstract
Aim This study aimed to describe the prevalence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) of hypertensive heart disease (HHD) at the global, regional, and national levels and analyze epidemiological trends. Method We extracted global estimates of prevalence, deaths, and DALYs related to HHD in 204 countries and regions from the 2019 Global Burden of Diseases Study. Average annual percent change (AAPC) was calculated to represent temporal trends. Joinpoint regression models were used to analyze time trends from 1990 to 2019. Finally, the decomposition analysis showed the driving factors of burden changes. Results From 1990 to 2019, the global prevalence of HHD cases increased by 138 %, reaching 18,598,025 cases (95 % uncertainty interval [UI]: 13,544,365-24,898,411). DALYs also rose by 154 %, reaching 21,508,002 (95 % UI, 16,400,051-23,899,879). The death rate increased to 14.95 (95 % UI, 11.11-16.52) per 100,000 people. Of the five sociodemographic index (SDI) regions, the prevalence rate related to HHD was the highest in the high-middle SDI region. In contrast, the death and DALY rate related to HHD were the highest in the middle SDI region. In other regions, the prevalence rate was the highest in East Asia (548.87 per 100,000 people; 95 % UI, 395.40-747.83), and the death rate was the highest in Central Europe (42.64 per 100,000 people; 95 % UI, 30.58-49.38). At the national level, the Cook Islands had the highest prevalence rate for HHD (703.08 per 100,000 people; 95 % UI, 532.87-920.72), Bulgaria had the highest death rate (75.08 per 100,000 people; 95 % UI, 46.38-92.81), and Afghanistan had the highest DALY rate (1374.12 per 100,000 people; 95 % UI, 467.17-2020.70). High body mass index, a diet high in sodium, alcohol use, lead exposure, high temperature, and low temperature were identified as risk factors for death and DALYs related to HHD in 2019. Aging and population growth were the major drivers of prevalence, death, and DALYs. Finally, over the past 30 years, the global age-standardized prevalence rate (ASPR) of HHD has significantly risen (AAPC = 0.21 %, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.17-0.24; P < 0.001), while the age-standardized deaths rate (ASDR) has shown significant declining trends (AAPC = -0.86 %, 95 % CI: 1.00 to -0.71; P < 0.001), and age-standardized DALY rates (AAPC = -1.08 %, 95 % CI: 1.23 to -0.93; P < 0.001). Conclusion Despite a significant decline in the global ASDR and age-standardized DALY rate of HHD over the past 30 years, the ASPR continues to rise. The burden of HHD is more heavily skewed towards non-high-income economies. Active prevention, control of risk factors, and improvement of medical protection levels to address the disease burden caused by population growth and aging are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension caused by air pollution exposure is a growing concern in China. The association between air pollutant exposure and hypertension has been found to be potentiated by obesity, however, little is known about the processes mediating this association. This study investigated the association between fine particulate matter (aerodynamic equivalent diameter ≤ 2.5 microns, PM2.5) exposure and the prevalence of hypertension in a representative population in southern China and tested whether obesity mediated this association. METHODS A total of 14,308 adults from 48 communities/villages in southern China were selected from January 2015 to December 2015 using a stratified multistage random sampling method. Hourly PM2.5 measurements were collected from the China National Environmental Monitoring Centre. Restricted cubic splines were used to analyze the nonlinear dose-response relationship between PM2.5 exposure and hypertension risk. The mediating effect mechanism of obesity on PM2.5-associated hypertension was tested in a causal inference framework following the approach proposed by Imai and Keele. RESULTS A total of 20.7% (2966/14,308) of participants in the present study were diagnosed with hypertension. Nonlinear exposure-response analysis revealed that exposure to an annual mean PM2.5 concentration above 41.8 µg/m3 was associated with increased hypertension risk at an incremental gradient. 9.1% of the hypertension burden could be attributed to exposure to elevated annual average concentrations of PM2.5. It is noteworthy that an increased body fat percentage positively mediated 59.3% of the association between PM2.5 exposure and hypertension risk, whereas body mass index mediated 34.3% of this association. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that a significant portion of the estimated effect of exposure to PM2.5 on the risk of hypertension appears to be attributed to its effect on alterations in body composition and the development of obesity. These findings could inform intersectoral actions in future studies to protect populations with excessive fine particle exposure from developing hypertension.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to investigate the association between BMI combined with neck circumference and the risk of hypertension. Methods We selected participants from the Kailuan study in 2014 who were normotensive as our research subjects. We compared the risk of hypertension among individuals in group 1 (non-obese with low neck circumference), group 2 (non-obese with high neck circumference), group 3 (obese with low neck circumference), and group 4 (obese with high neck circumference). Results After a median observation period of 3.86 years, hypertension occurred in 13,383 participants. Subjects in Group 2, 3, and 4 had significantly higher risks of hypertension compared to Group 1, with hazard ratios (HRs) of 1.066 (95% CI: 1.025, 1.110), 1.322 (95% CI: 1.235, 1.415), and 1.422 (95% CI: 1.337, 1.512), respectively. Additionally, adding BMI to a conventional model had a greater incremental effect on predicting hypertension compared to adding neck circumference alone. However, considering both BMI and neck circumference together further improved the prediction of hypertension. Conclusion Individuals with both high BMI and high neck circumference face a higher risk of hypertension. Moreover, BMI is a superior predictor of hypertension risk compared to neck circumference, but using both of these measures can further enhance the accuracy of hypertension risk prediction.

Abstract
The control rate of ambulatory blood pressure (BP) is unclear in Chinese hypertensive patients, and whether it would be associated with the ambulatory arterial stiffness indices is also unknown. From June 2018 until December 2022, 4408 treated hypertensive patients (52.8% men, average age 58.2 years) from 77 hospitals in China were registered. Ambulatory BPs were measured with validated monitors and analyzed with a web-based standardized Shuoyun system ( www.shuoyun.com.cn ). The BP control rate was the highest in the office (65.7%), moderate in the daytime (45.0%), low in the morning (34.1%), and the lowest in the nighttime (27.6%, P < 0.001). Only 21.0% had their 24 h BP perfectly controlled. The stepwise regression analyses identified that the factors associated with an imperfect 24 h BP control included male sex, smoking and drinking habits, a higher body mass index, serum total cholesterol and triglycerides, and the use of several specific types of antihypertensive drugs. After adjustment for the above-mentioned factors, the 24 h pulse pressure (PP) and its components, the elastic and stiffening PPs, were all significantly associated with an uncontrolled office and ambulatory BP status with the standardized odds ratios ranging from 1.09 to 4.68 (P < 0.05). The ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) was only associated with an uncontrolled nighttime and 24 h BP status. In conclusion, the control rates of 24 h ambulatory BP, especially that in the nighttime and morning time windows, were low in Chinese hypertensive patients, which might be associated with arterial stiffness in addition to other common risk factors.

Abstract
Despite an alarming increase in the prevalence of hypertension among Chinese young adults, longitudinal studies investigating factors that affect the maintenance of normal blood pressure (BP) in this population are lacking. Our study aimed to address this knowledge gap. A total of 7100 participants from the Kailuan Study who had normal BP and were aged <30 years at their first physical examination between 2006 and 2016 were included in this study. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess hazard ratios (HR), and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to assess the associations between influencing factors and the maintenance of normal BP in young adults. Analyses were stratified by sex. During the follow-up period (mean, 7.98 years), 1921 participants (27.06%) maintained normal BP. Higher education levels (HR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.00-1.22), low salt intake (HR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.04-1.51), being underweight (HR, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.02-1.31), and having normal weight (HR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.01-1.39), normal blood glucose (HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.02-1.46), and no family history of hypertension (HR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.41-1.92) at baseline were found to be associated with maintaining normal BP. Compared with female smokers, female non-smokers had 1.68 times higher odds of maintaining normal BP. This study identified factors that influence the maintenance of normal BP in the young population in China. This information can assist clinicians in establishing comprehensive and effective primary prevention measures for hypertension.

Abstract
Purpose To develop and empirically test a conceptual model that explains the factors influencing antihypertensive medication adherence behavior in elderly patients in a city in western China. Patients and Methods The conceptual model was based on the Theory of Planned Behavior and the Health Belief Model and was empirically tested using cross-sectional survey data from Nanchong City, a city in western China, collected between October and December 2020. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Results Behavioral intentions were the main predictor of medication adherence behavior (path coefficient of 0.353). Perceived benefits and perceived barriers directly (path coefficient = 0.201 and -0.150, respectively), and indirectly (path coefficient = 0.118 and -0.060) through behavioral intentions, influenced medication adherence behavior. Perceived susceptibility (path coefficient = 0.390) and perceived severity (path coefficient = 0.408) influenced behavioral attitudes, which influenced behavioral intentions (path coefficient = 0.298). Conclusion The conceptual model demonstrates a robust ability to predict and explain medication adherence behavior among elderly patients with hypertension, facilitating the adoption and maintenance of changes in adherence behavior and the potential for preventing disease progression and improving quality of life.

Abstract
Objective Single-pill amlodipine besylate (AML) plus losartan (LOS) has been used to treat inadequately controlled hypertension after antihypertensive monotherapy; however, relevant data in China are limited. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of single-pill AML/LOS and LOS alone in Chinese patients with inadequately controlled hypertension after LOS treatment. Methods In this multicenter, double-blind, randomized, controlled phase III clinical trial, patients with inadequately controlled hypertension after 4 weeks of LOS treatment were randomized to receive daily single-pill AML/LOS (5/100 mg, AML/LOS group, N = 154) or LOS (100 mg, LOS group, N = 153) tablets for 8 weeks. At weeks 4 and 8 of treatment, sitting diastolic and systolic blood pressure (sitDBP and sitSBP, respectively) and the BP target achievement rate were assessed. Results At week 8, the sitDBP change from baseline was greater in the AML/LOS group than in the LOS group (-8.84 ± 6.86 vs. -2.65 ± 7.62 mmHg, P < 0.001). In addition, the AML/LOS group also showed greater sitDBP change from baseline to week 4 (-8.77 ± 6.60 vs. -2.99 ± 7.05 mmHg) and sitSBP change from baseline to week 4 (-12.54 ± 11.65 vs. -2.36 ± 10.33 mmHg) and 8 (-13.93 ± 10.90 vs. -2.38 ± 12.71 mmHg) (all P < 0.001). Moreover, the BP target achievement rates at weeks 4 (57.1% vs. 25.3%, P < 0.001) and 8 (58.4% vs. 28.1%, P < 0.001) were higher in the AML/LOS group than those in the LOS group. Both treatments were safe and tolerable. Conclusion Single-pill AML/LOS is superior to LOS monotherapy for controlling BP and is safe and well tolerated in Chinese patients with inadequately controlled hypertension after LOS treatment.
