Overview

Hypothesis-generating for hypertension burden in rural Indonesian women; prospective studies needed before changing screening thresholds.

Structured PICO

P
Population
193 married rural women aged 20-49 years old in Cianjur district, Indonesia
O
Outcome
Prevalence of hypertension and its determinants (socio-economic characteristics, anthropometry, fat distribution, and nutrient intake)

Waist circumference combined with BMI can be a simple and effective screening tool for hypertension risk in primary care settings, with ACC/AHA guidelines increasing screening sensitivity.

Limitations

  • small sample size
  • did not address history of hormonal contraceptive use
  • did not address physical activity
