DBP=diastolic blood pressure MVPA=moderate-to-vigorous physical activity HDL=high-density lipoprotein Notes: Each unit increase in the risk score was associated with a significant increase in the predicted prevalence of hypertension (p < 0.05). The sex-specific risk factor models included all risk factors along with age group, marital status, education, income quintile, ethnicity, having a regular doctor, smoking, cardiovascular disease (CVD), family history of high blood pressure, family history of early CVD, and the cycle of the Canadian Health Measures Survey (CHMS). The sex-specific risk score models included age group, marital status, education, income quintile, ethnicity, having a regular doctor, smoking, CVD, family history of high blood pressure, family history of early CVD, and the cycle of the CHMS.
