Interrelations between heart rate, hypertension, and the other cardiovascular risk factors in Krasnoyarsk krai population

Aim. To evaluate the heart rate in the state of rest and to find its interrelations with gender, age, blood pressure level, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and metabolic syndrome components in the representative sample of Krasnoyarsk Krai population.Material and Methods. Within the framework of ESSE-RF study, the representative sample consisted of 1 411 Krasnoyarsk Krai inhabitants aged 25-64 with no history of beta-blocker intake. With IBM SPSS v. 22, we calculated the descriptive statistics and checked group disparities for statistical significance (significant at p≤0.05).Results. The median heart rate in the sample was 72 (66; 78) beats per minute. We found no significant disparities neither in gender (p = 0.182) nor in age groups (p = 0.084). The heart rate in hypertensive people (73 (68; 80) beats per minute) was significantly higher (p
