description Arterial hypertension (AHT) is associated with other diseases, pri­marily obesity. Its high prevalence represents a serious health problem in the world. The objective of the study was to determine the relation­ship between arterial hypertension and central obesity in mothers of three urban areas of the city of Durango, Mexico. In order to accom­plish this goal, a cross-sectional study was conducted through a printed validated survey, which included 806 participants. Information about their socio-demographic characteris­tics and background of hypertensive disease was obtained. Measurements of blood pressure, circumference of waist and hip were performed. The analysis included descriptive sta­tistics, tests of independence and epidemiological risk measurement. The participants had age mean of 41.4 years and 9 years of completed schooling. 59.8 % were married, 69.3 % housewives and 87.8 % af­filiated with any health institution. The reported prevalence of hypertension was of 20.3 %; in 50.6 % of the total population family history of the disease was present. Elevated blood pressure obtained by direct measurement was 19.7 %. Systolic hypertension was found in 8.4 % and diastolic in 17.3 %. Abdominal obesity was evident in 82.9 %; the risk of de­veloping AHT was 3.1 times higher in mothers with abdominal obesity. Family history of hypertension and central obesity, one of the main car­diovascular risk factors, increased the risk for developing hypertensive disease. Archive XML (SciELO)

Su alta prevalencia representa un serio problema de salud en el mundo. El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar la relación entre hipertensión arterial y obesidad central en madres de familia de tres colonias de la ciudad de Durango, Durango, México. Para ello, se hizo un estudio transversal con una po­blación de 806 madres de familia. Se realizaron mediciones de tensión arterial, circunferencia de cintura y cadera. El análisis estadístico incluyó descriptivos, pruebas de independencia y medición de riesgo epidemiológico. Se obtuvo información de características so­ciodemográficas y antecedentes de la enfermedad hipertensiva. Las par­ticipantes presentaron como media de edad 41.4 años y de escolaridad nueve años cursados. El 59.8 % eran casadas, el 69.3 % eran amas de casa y el 87.8 % tenía afiliación a alguna institución de salud. La prevalencia de hipertensión reportada por las participantes fue 20.3 %; en el 50.6 % de la población total estuvo presente el antecedente familiar de la enfer­medad. La tensión arterial elevada obtenida por medición directa fue 19.7 %. Se encontró hipertensión sistólica en 8.4 % y diastólica en 17.3 %. La obesidad abdominal se evidenció en 82.9 %; el riesgo de presentar hipertensión arterial fue 3.1 veces mayor en las madres con obesidad abdominal. El riesgo de padecer enfermedad hipertensiva se elevó en los pacientes con antecedente familiar de HTA y con padecimiento de obesidad central, la cual es también con­siderada uno de los principales factores de riesgo cardiovascular. Archivo XML (SciELO) Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas 2015-07-20 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html application/xml https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/534 10.29059/cienciauat.v9i2.534 CienciaUAT; Vol. 9 No. 2: January-June 2015; 53-58 CienciaUAT; Vol. 9 No. 2: Enero-Junio 2015; 53-58 2007-7858 2007-7521 spa https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/534/353 https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/534/538 https://revistaciencia.uat.edu.mx/index.php/CienciaUAT/article/view/534/580
