| Popis: | Background: Isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH) has been actively discussed for the last two decades because of its prevalence in a younger population and its association with cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, the association of IDH is significant in South Asian Countries such as India because relatively younger populations are known to have a higher risk of cardiovascular events. Objective: The objective of this study is to find prevalence of IDH and its risk correlates in a semiurban population of South Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. Methods: Data were collected using the modified World Health Organization - STEPwise approach to Surveillance (WHO STEPS) questionnaire for 16,636 individuals from a group of villages under Thavanampalle Mandal. Collated data were analyzed for prevalence and risk factors of IDH. Results: Prevalence of IDH was found to be 4.0% with mean age of 46.0 (±SD 13.6) years and a relatively higher prevalence in men (5.3%) as compared with women (3.2%). The prevalence of IDH peaked in the fifth decade of life (40–49 years of age) and declined thereafter. Among various risk factors that were analyzed for their association with IDH, only age, body weight, and body mass index retained their significance in multivariate binary logistic regression analysis. Conclusion: There is a significant prevalence of IDH below 50 years of age in the semiurban population of South India. As IDH in young and middle age is known to be associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events and end organ involvement, it highlights need for study and development of effective IDH management strategies to reduce associated morbidity and mortality.
