Variation of mean blood pressure in Peruvian population with and without diabetes mellitus-2
Journal Title: Revista Eugenio Espejo - Year 2024, Vol 18, Issue 2
Abstract
Mean arterial pressure is an indirect indicator of the degree of organ perfusion, which could vary in diabetics and non-diabetics. The objective of this research was to determine the differences and risk of alterations in the mean arterial pressure of adults with and without diabetes mellitus-2 of the Peruvian population according to data from the family health demographic survey. An observational, analytical, retrospective and cross-sectional study was carried out. The data came from the demographic and family health survey-2022 (ENDES-2022). Diabetic and non-diabetic adults were included. The variables were mean arterial pressure, diabetes mellitus-2, sex, and the variables age, alcohol consumption, educational level, and body mass index were included for multivariate analysis. Pearson's Chi-square test, student's T test for independent samples, crude Odds Ratio and adjusted by binary logistic regression were performed. The mean arterial pressure in diabetics was 94.81 and 93.52 mmHg in the first and second measurements, and in non-diabetics it was 89.18 and 88.02 mmHg. High mean arterial pressure was more frequent in diabetics than in non-diabetics. In the logistic model, including the variables sex and age, diabetics had a risk twice as high as non-diabetics for alterations in mean arterial pressure in both the first and second measurements. In conclusion, diabetes mellitus-2 increases mean arterial pressure and represents a risk factor for elevated mean arterial pressure in the Peruvian population.
