Abstract
Cholesterol and high blood pressure are major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases/CVDs. Most CVDs can be prevented by early detection and correcting risk factors. This study aims to determine the profile of blood glucose, cholesterol, blood pressure and its association with CVDs risk. This study was a cross-sectional study with the porposive sampling method. Subjects were participants of the chronic disease management program (Prolanis) in the community health centers. The risk of CVDs was assessed by Framingham Risk Score tools. Data analysis with the anova test. The results showed a total of 81 participants with 24.69% are low-risk group and 75.31% are intermediate-high risk. Mean glucose was 160,20 mg/dL. Mean lipid profile: total-C was 207,59 mg/dL, HDL-C was 44.86 mg/dL, LDL-C was 147,70 mg/dL and median ratio total-C/HDL-C was 4,7. Median (min-max) blood pressure: systolic blood pressure was 148 mmHg (99-203) and diastolic blood pressure was 82 mmHg (61-119). CVDs risk was associated with (p-value); total-C (0,006), ratio total-C/HDL-C (0.008), systolic blood pressure (0,001), and diastolic blood pressure (0,014). This shows that CVDs risk its associated with total-C, ratio total-C/HDL-C, and blood pressure. Therefore, we propose that early detection and corrected behavioral risk factors as an effort to prevent CVDs.
