Description 467-473
The influence of dietary caloric intake was
studied on blood pressure (BP), serum lipids, body mass index
(BMI) and waist-hip-ratio (WHR) according to age and gender. The study
population consisted of 400 healthy individuals as controls and 746 first time
detected untreated hypertensive (HTN) subjects. The subjects were regrouped
according to amount of calorie intake per day i.e. high and low calorie intake
diet within two age-groups: 30-50 years and
51-80 yrs. Blood samples were drawn from all the subjects, following an
overnight fast and serum total cholesterol
(TC), triglycerides (TG) and HDL-C were measured by standard methods. Serum
LDL-C was calculated by Fredrickson-Friedwald formula. BP and anthropometric
measurements were measured by a standardized protocol. Highly significant
increases in TC, TG, LDL-C, anthropometric and atherogenic indices were seen.
While a decrease in HDL-C was observed in high calorie HTN, as compared to low
calorie controls. Gender-wise, men had increased values compared to women,
except, HDL-C and BMI. With increase in age, all parameters increased in both
the subject categories, except atherogenic and anthropometric indices.
Hypertensive subjects with high calorie intake diet showed an increase in BP,
serum lipids and BMI which might be the major contributor in precipitation of
hypertension and also in increasing risk of cardiovascular morbidity and
mortality.
