Abstract：Objective To investigate whether diabetes mellitus was correlated with hypertension in benign prostatic hyperplasia patients. Methods A total of 435 benign prostatic hyperplasia patients were included from the BPSC database for further selection. We included the patients if the relevant data of blood pressure, height, weight, prostate volume, fasting blood sugar, and biological parameters were recorded. Participants were divided into two groups by with hypertension or not. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess the data through SPSS 19.0 software. Results Finally 327 patients involving 108 hypertensive patients and 219 non-hypertensive patients were included in present study. The results showed that diabetes mellitus increased the risk of hypertension by 1.24 times in all benign prostatic hyperplasia patients (OR=1.24, 95%CI:0.58~2.65), which was elevated to 1.85 times after adjustment (95%CI:0.51~6.74). The similar results were also observed in mild, moderate, and serious hypertensive patients, respectively (all P>0.05). Conclusion The present study suggests a positive but non-significant correlation between diabetes mellitus and hypertension in benign prostatic hyperplasia patients.
