This study investigated the relationship between hemoglobin (Hb) level and blood pressure in a Chinese community-dwelling population with normal glucose metabolism. Hb, fasting plasma glucose, glycated Hb A1c, hepatic and renal function, lipid, electrolytes, and anthropometric parameters were measured. Hb level was found to be positively correlated with systolic (SBP; r = 0.075, p < 0.001) and diastolic (DBP; r = 0.272, p < 0.001) blood pressure in the cohort. The relationship was not affected by age, BMI, serum creatinine (Cr), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in both males and females. Multivariate stepwise regression showed that age (β = 0.556, p < 0.001), BMI (β = 1.107, < 0.001), Hb (β = 0.082, p < 0.001), Cr (β = –0.032, p < 0.001), and LDL (β = 1.023, p < 0.001) were independent factors for SBP, and Hb (β = 0.168, p < 0.001), BMI (β = 0.519, p = 0.001), and LDL (β = 0.331, p < 0.001) for DBP. Hb level is positively associated with both SBP and DBP in a Chinese community-dwelling population with normal glucose metabolism.

BACKGROUND: Hypertension is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease. It has been reported that arterial stiffness is related to cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in hypertensive patients and that the…
BACKGROUND: Circulating lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and arterial stiffness are markers associated with the atherosclerotic processes. With regard to cardiovascular outcomes, the relationship between Lp(a) and arterial…
Vitamin-K-dependent carboxylation of matrix Gla protein (MGP) protects the macrocirculation against calcification. We recently reported in a multiethnic population study that the estimated glomerular filtration rate, a…
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a proinflammatory pleiotropic cytokine which may contribute to the initiation and progression of ischemic stroke (IS). Thus far, numerous studies have been performed to examine the…
There have been attempts to explain the process of developments in overt cardiovascular disease, resulting in the presentation of the classic cardiovascular disease continuum and the aging cardiovascular continuum…
Fimasartan, the eighth angiotensin receptor blocker, was launched in March 2011 and was found to have an excellent efficacy and safety profile in a large cross-sectional population study [Safety and Efficacy of…
The use of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs), whether for destination therapy or bridge to transplantation, has gained increasing validation in recent years in patients with advanced heart failure. Arrhythmias can…
Background: Aortic stiffness, measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cf-PWV), is used for the prediction of cardiovascular risk. This mini-review describes the nonlinear relationship between cf-PWV and…
INTRODUCTION: Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory fever syndrome distinguished by recurrent attacks of spontaneous peritonitis, pleuritis, fever, and arthritis. It is specifically seen in the…
Despite improvements in hypertension awareness and treatment, the blood pressure (BP) control rate still remains at around 50%. One of the major determinants of low BP control results from therapeutic inertia of the…
