Hypertension and Glycemic Control and Associated Factors for Poor Control in Patient Populations at High Risk of Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease in the Community

BackgroundThe low hypertension control rate or low glycemic control rate in people in the community have been attributed to patients' poor disease awareness and irregular medication in some studies. However, few studies have explored hypertension control rate and/or glycemic control rate in patients with good disease awareness and regular medication.ObjectiveTo investigate the adequate hypertension control rate and/or adequate glycemic control rate in hypertension and diabetic patients who are at high risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) but have good disease awareness and regular medication, and to explore the reasons for poor control, offering a theoretical basis for better prevention and control of ASCVD.MethodsBy use of cluster sampling, contracted patients with complete data of the China-PAR model who visited 10 community health centers in Shenzhen's Luohu District from August 2018 to April 2019 were selected, and received an assessment for screening the risk of 10-year ASCVD using the
