Abstract

Objective

We aimed to estimate the prevalence of CRFs and investigate its associated social-economic factors among adults in coastal areas of Qinzhou, Guangxi.

Methods

A representative sample of 1836 participants aged 20 to 70 years was included in Qinzhou, Guangxi in 2020. Data were collected by the questionnaire, anthropometric and laboratory measurements. The prevalence of CRFs, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, overweight or obesity, alcohol consumption, and smoking were calculated by standardization. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the independent factors associated with the presence of CRFs.

Results

The age-standardized prevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, overweight or obesity alcohol consumption, and smoking was 42.7%, 39.5%, 0.9%, 38.5%, 18.4% and 15.7%, respectively. The prevalence of clustering of at least one and at least two cardiovascular disease risk factors were 82.2% and 45.3% in total. There were differences in the aggregation of cardiovascular risk factors among different age, education, and income levels. There appeared higher clustering of at least one and at least two CRFs among adults with lower education level, higher income level and those elderly.

Conclusions

Compared with other regions in China, a higher prevalence of CRFs exists among adults in Guangxi and several social-economic factors were associated with the presence of CRFs. These findings suggest that we should implement effective measures to control the CRFs, to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in adults.
