A multivariate analysis was performed using a logistic regression test. Results: The proportion of hypertension was 54%. The multivariate analysis results showed that older age, low education level, a family history of hypertension, overweight/obese status, and consumption of sweet foods for >3 times/week increased the risk of hypertension (Odds Ratio 2.37-11.28).

This study highlights the importance of increasing health promotion on the modifiable risk factors of hypertension such as food consumption patterns, weight control, and knowledge about hypertension. }, issn = {2620-4053}, pages = {8--15} doi = {10.14710/jpki.18.1.8-15}, url = {https://ejournal.undip.ac.id/index.php/jpki/article/view/45515} }
