Abstract PDF: Purpose
This study investigated the completion rate of hypertension management education and its influencing factors among adults in the Busan region, utilizing data from the 2021 Community Health Survey.
Methods
The study included 3,660 adults aged 19 years or older who had been diagnosed with hypertension. Data were analyzed using SAS 9.4, focusing on demographic, socioeconomic, and health status characteristics.
Results
The results indicated that 22.1% of participants had completed hypertension management education. Key influencing factors varied by region: in the Western region, age, income, education level, marital status, and life satisfaction were significant factors associated with participation in hypertension management education. In the Southern region, income and education level were identified as relevant factors. Additionally, in the Central and Eastern regions, education level was a significant determinant.
Conclusion
Therefore, tailored hypertension management education programs that consider age, income, marital status, and life satisfaction are essential for residents in the Western region of Busan. Moreover, it is critical to enhance access to hypertension management education for low-income populations in the Southern region. Educational programs should also be designed to align with the educational levels of Busan residents to ensure effective hypertension management education.

PURPOSE
This study was conducted to investigate the combined effects of abdominal obesity and alcohol drinking on the risk of hypertension in Korean adults (aged â‰¥30 yrs).
METHODS
Data of 13,885 subjects from the sixth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were analyzed. The multiple logistic regression tests were used for the analysis, including potential covariates of the model.
RESULTS
Frequency of drinking, typical drinking quantity, and frequency of binge drinking had a positive relation to hypertension. The odds ratio of hypertension for risk drinkers with abdominal obesity was 4.81 compared to non-risk drinkers with normal waist circumstance, whereas the odds ratios of hypertension for risk drinkers with normal waist circumstance and non-risk drinkers with abdominal obesity were 1.58 and 2.37 respectively.
CONCLUSION
Both abdominal obesity and alcohol drinking patterns were strong risk factors of hypertension in the Korean adults. Risk drinkers with abdominal obesity showed a marked high risk in hypertension compared to those with a single condition alone.
