| Abstract: | Objective: The objective intends to assess the gender disparity in the association of obesity, nutritional status and hypertension among older adults in periurban Birbhum district, West Bengal Materials and Methods: The present study aimed to explore the gender differential in the association of anthropometric measures including body mass index, waist circumference, and waist-hip ratio and blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) among adults population in periurban Birbhum District, West Bengal. The sample contains 285 males and 351 females aged 27 years and above. . The research was carried out in two blocks named Rampurhat and Mallarpur of Birbhum district. Study area and participants were selected through simple random sampling (SRS) technique. Anthropometric measures were taken and various risk factors such as Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist Hip Ratio (WHR) and Blood Pressure (Systolic and Diastolic) were calculated. Data were analyzed using the Stata (Version 12). Results: Descriptive statistics (percentages) along with bivariate analysis were presented. Multivariable binary logistic regression analyses were used to examine the associations between the outcome variable (hypertension) and High Risk (WHR) factors. Percentage of hypertensive population is study area was 19.97. The paper has shown that females were engaged more in sedentary activities and experienced hypertension and high WHR than male population. Education level of female population was also low (illiterate around 55 %) and 8.5 % crossed the secondary and higher secondary level. Multivariable logistics regression (MLR) revealed that socioeconomic variables had an impact on hypertension and high WHR. Both adjusted and unadjusted logistic regression analysis has been done on gender wise hypertensive population. Conclusion: This study aimed to explore the difference in association with hypertension among anthropometric indices of obesity, including BMI, waist circumference and waist–hip ratio, among the study population of periurban population in Birbhum district. Socio-demographic characteristics have an impact on NCDs and most important of the risk factors are behaviorable and hence modifiable. |
