Abstract:OBJECTIVE To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of obesity-related hypertension,and using this large sam-ple to explore the diagnostic value of serum cholesterol level in obesity-related hypertension.METHODS From January 2020 to De-cember 2020,62 707 employees of a railway enterprise who participated in physical examination were investigated to analyze the oc-currence and correlation between serum cholesterol level and obesity-related hypertension,and to predict the diagnostic value of se-rum cholesterol indexes for obesity-related hypertension.RESULTS The abnormal rate of cholesterol in railway workers was 4.68%,which was positively correlated with age and body mass index.The prevalence of hypertension was 22.56%,and the prevalence of obesity-related hypertension was 11.73%.The prevalence was positively correlated with age and BMI.Low density lipoprotein had a weak positive correlation with blood pressure,high densitylipoprotein had a weak negative correlation with blood pressure.CONCLU-SION Age and abnormal total cholesterol are closely related to hypertension,but the significance of serum total cholesterol in predict-ing obesity related hypertension is limited.
