Abstract

A cross-sectional study was conducted on 279 women 20-45 years old with BMI ≥23 kg/m2 to investigate blood pressure status, anthropometric characteristics, body composition (BC) and some associated factors in Bac Giang province. Subjects were measured weight, height, BC, rest blood pressure and interviewed available questionnaires. The results showed that means of weight, height, BMI of the subjects were 64.0±8.3 kg, 153.5±5.1 cm, BMI 27.2±2.8 kg/m2, respectively. Mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) was 118.3 ± 14.6 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure was 74.4±10.3 mmHg; SBP was higher in the older group and in low education level (p<0.05). The rates of prehypertension and hypertension were 48.8% and 7.2%, respectively, and were significantly higher in the obese subjects (BMI ≥30kg/m2) compared with those whose were overweight (p<0.05). The differences among age groups, occupations and educational levels with anthropometrics and BC were not statistically significant, but there was a linear correlation between BMI and fat mass, estimated muscle mass (p<0,001). The change in BMI of overweight/obese women could change the risk of prehypertension, affecting the body composition
