Objective To investigate the prevalence of hypertension among perimenopausal women in the southern mountainous region of Ningxia and analyze the associated risk factors.Methods A random sampling method was used to select 395 perimenopausal women aged 45 to 55 years from the resident population in the southern mountainous region.A self-designed epidemiological question-naire was used to assess the prevalence of hypertension and analyze related risk factors.Results Among 162 perimenopausal women,25 cases were diagnosed with hypertension,and the prevalence rate was 15.43％.The univariate analysis revealed that the incidence of hypertension prevalence in perimenopausal women was significantly associated with age,income level,high-fat diet,intake of miscellane-ous grains,and family history of hypertension(P＜0.05).Further multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age,family histo-ry of hypertension,high-fat diet,and miscellaneous grains were the major influencing factors of hypertension in perimenopausal women(P＜0.05).Conclusion Age,family history of hypertension and high-fat diet are related to the incidence of hypertension in perim-enopausal women.Implementing targeted preventive measures and effectively managing these factors may reduce the prevalence of hyper-tension in perimenopausal women.
