ABSTRACT
Objective. To examine whether leisure-time physical activity
(PA) is associated with hypertension status in Korean
adults (men, 586; women, 1 135) who visited a public health
promotion center for a medical checkup in Seoul from 2010
to 2011.
Materials and methods. Multivariate logistic
regression analysis adjusted for age, body mass index, sleep
duration, mental stress, education level, economic status, and
drinking and smoking frequencies was performed.
Results.
Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for having hypertension
and performing PA compared to having hypertension
and not performing PA were not significant for both sexes
regardless of the PA frequency and intensity, except for
moderate PA 3 times per week in women.
Conclusion. We
conclude that PA has no or little association with hypertension
status in Korean adults.
