The independent variables were physical activity, obesity, and family history. Hypertension was measured by sphygmomanometer. The other data were collected by questionnaire. The data were analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Hypertension was associated with physical activity (OR=3.46;95% CI=1.52 to 7.90;p=0.003), obesity (OR=4.57;95% CI= 1.96 to 10.64 p<0.0001), family history (OR= 9.33;95% CI=720 to 23.41;p<0.0001), and fat consumption (OR=4.14;95% CI=1.79 to 9.57;p=0.001).Conclusion: Physical activity, obesity, family history, and fat consumption are associated with an increased risk of hypertension.
