Abstract:
The health-related physical fitness (HPF) indicators for assessing the risk of hypertension among staff and faculty in the university (SFU) were investigated by measuring and analyzing blood pressure and blood biochemical indicators.In order to screen for valid indicators of HPF to assess the risk of hypertension in SFU,Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test and binary Logistic regression model were used to analyze the test results of 791 faculty members in a university.The results show that the prevalence of hypertension was 22.41% and 11.38% for male and female respectively.The body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist height ratio (WHtR) and lipid accumulation index (LAP) had significant effects on the prevalence of hypertension for both male and female (P<0 .05).grip strength (gs) and lung capacity (vc) had significant effects on the prevalence of hypertension for female(p<0.05) but not for male(p>0.05).BMI, WC, WHtR and LAP were effective to assess the hypertension risk for male(P
