To explore the correlation between body roundness index (BRI) and hypertension in middle-aged and elderly people.
The research data were from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). The baseline data of participants in 2011 and the follow-up data from 2013 to 2020 were collected, and the body roundness index was calculated. Cox regression was used to analyze the relationship between BRI and hypertension. The linear trend test was used to explore the linear trend of the incidence of hypertension in the four quartiles of BRI. The dose-response relationship between BRI and hypertension was analyzed by restricted cubic spline model. The receiver operating characteristic curve and the area under the curve were used to evaluate BRI and common obesity assessment, so as to evaluate their ability to predict hypertension risk.
Cox regression analysis showed that after adjusting the relevant covariates, BRI was correlated with the incidence of hypertension. The incidence of hypertension in the highest quartile of BRI was 1.29 times higher than that in the lowest quartile. Linear trend test showed that the incidence of hypertension increased with the increase of BRI quartile level (27.27%, 29.78%, 37.69%, 43.70%). RCS analysis showed that the higher the BRI, the greater the risk of hypertension. ROC curve analysis showed that the diagnostic performance of BRI was better than that of BMI, WHtR and WWI.
High BRI is associated with an increased risk of hypertension in middle-aged and elderly people in China.
