Abstract

The paper dealt with analytical results of data collected from 995 adults of 18 years and above living in rural and urban areas of Bangladesh. The analysis was done to identify some socioeconomic variables which were responsible for the prevalence of hypertension in adults of 18 years and above. The prevalence rate was observed among 5.9% adults. The rate was significantly higher than the overall prevalence rate among non-Muslims, elderly people, retired persons, smokers, and process food consumers, adults involved in sedentary activities, obese adults, and diabetic adults suffering for longer duration. The risk of prevalence was more among urban people, males, single adults, lower educated adults, and adults of economically affluent families. However, the most responsible variable for prevalence of hypertension was age followed by duration of diabetes, process food consumption, sedentary activity, body mass index, smoking habit. These variables were identified in discriminating hypertensive and non-hypertensive adults.
