Research Abstract

The prevalence of hypertension among women has tended to have decreased from 1970's to 2000's in three communities in Japan, while that among men has tended to have increase from 1990's to 2000's. For men, the population attributable fraction (PAF) of obese/overweight for hypertension has increased from 1970's to 2000's. Therefore, obese/overweight may affect on the increase in prevalence of hypertension in recent years among Japanse men. Concerning home blood pressure measurement, masked hypertension was associated with obese/overweight. Thus, anti-obesity initiative must be important for prevention of hypertension in Japan.
