Blood pressure has been shown to change by outdoor temperature, but whether intra- and inter-day temperature variability (TV) will bring higher effect on BP is not clear. Based on a prospective cohort study, the mixed effect model was selected to estimate the relationship between TV (daily temperature variability (DTV) and hourly temperature variability (HTV)) and BP (systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), pulse pressure (PP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP)) after adjusting for confounding variables. We found that there was a positive linear correlation between TV and BP. The results of DTV and HTV were basically consistent, but the effect estimates of HTV seemed to be larger. Gender, age, BMI, education level and BP status may modify the relationship between TV and BP. The effect of TV on BP was greater in non-heating season than in heating season. Our work contributes to a further macro mechanism evidence for the TV-CVDs association. |
