The Relationship between Sleep Duration, Body Mass Index, Physical Education Classes, Age and High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents: A Cross-sectional Study
Background In order to study the high blood pressure of children and adolescents and its influencing factors, it provides evidence-based evidence for the high blood pressure prevention of primary and secondary school students.
Methods This study is a cross-sectional survey, which uses stratified cluster sampling method to select students from 7 schools to participate in questionnaire survey and physical examination. The correlation between single factor and high blood pressure was analyzed by chi-square test, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used for multivariate analysis.
Results A total of 1,814 subjects, including 512 primary school students (28.22%), 499 junior high school students (27.51%), 563 senior high school (31.04%), and 240 vocational high school (13.23%). There were 1000 males (55.13%) and 814 females (44.70%). The average age was 13.64±2.65 years. The detection rate of high blood pressure was 9.76%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age groups were 10~ and 14~ (OR=20.870, 95%CI=2.372-183.666; OR=10.049, 95%CI=1.306-77.353) , sleep duration < 7h (OR=4.136, 95%CI=4.136), and physical education class times ≤2 times per week (OR=5.073, 95%CI=2.497-10.306), which were risk factors for high blood pressure in children and adolescents. Normal weight and overweight group were protective factors compared to the obesity group (OR=0.094, 95%CI=0.061-0.146; OR=0.225, 95%CI=0.134-0.378).
Conclusion The age groups of 14~ and 16~ years old, physical education classes ≤ 2 times per week, and sleep duration <7h were risk factors for primary and secondary school students, and BMI of Normal weight and overweight group were protective factors compared to the obesity group students.
