Values are presented as odds ratio (95% confidence interval).

NWNCO, normal weight non-central obesity; AWNCO, abnormal weight non-central obesity; NWCO, normal weight central obesity; AWCO, abnormal weight central obesity; ISH, isolated systolic hypertension; IDH, isolated diastolic hypertension; SDH, systolic diastolic hypertension.

Odds ratios were calculated using a general logistic model, adjusting for age, sex, residence, educational level, economic status, smoking history, and alcohol consumption.

2

The “stage 1 hypertension to stage 2 hypertension” group used the “maintained stage 1 hypertension” group as the reference, while the other groups of changes in hypertension stages used the “maintained normal” group as the reference.

3

The “ISH to SDH” group used the “maintain ISH” group as the reference, the “IDH to SDH” group used the “maintained IDH” group as the reference, and the other groups used the “maintained normal” group as the reference.

‘-’ represents an insufficient sample size.
