Summary:To explore the relationship between lipid accumulation product (LAP) and visceral adiposity index (VAI) and hypertension in oil workers and to evaluate the predictive value of hypertension by gender. A sample of 2,312 workers aged 18-60 years old with more than one year of service were selected by a whole-group random sampling method in six oil field bases in Karamay City, Xinjiang. Logistic regression combined with restricted cubic spline model was used to analyze the risk of hypertension in different LAP and VAI. The receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) with different sex LAP and VAI predicting the risk of hypertension were drawn. (1) There were significant differences in age, smoking, alcohol consumption, hypertension, BMI, WC, WHtR, SBP, DBP, TC, TG, HDL, LDL, FPG and Scr among different gender groups ( < 0.001).The prevalence of hypertension was 10.1%, with 13.9% in men and 3.6% in women. The prevalence of hypertension with different individual characteristics was statistically significant ( < 0.05). (2) Lipid accumulation product and visceral adiposity index were positively associated with hypertension ( < 0.001). The risk of hypertension may increase with the increase of lipid accumulation product and visceral adiposity index. After adjusting for age, sex, BMI, Scr, FPG and other factors, the risk of hypertension in the fourth quartile was (OR = 5.69, 95% CI [2.72-11.8]) and (OR = 3.56, 95% CI [2.03-6.23]) compared with the first quartile of lipid accumulation product and visceral adiposity index. (3) ROC results showed: AUC values of 0.658 (95% CI [0.619-0.696]), 0.614 (95% CI [0.574-0.654]), 0.661 (95% CI [0.620-0.703]) and critical values of 43.25, 1.58, 0.13 for LAP, VAI and combined indicators in men; the AUC values of LAP, VAI and combined indicators for women were 0.787 (95% CI [0.710-0.865]), 0.732 (95% CI [0.640-0.825]), 0.792 (95% CI [0.719-0.864]) and the critical values were 35.73, 1.76 and 0.03. Restricted cubic splines showed a nonlinear dose-response relationship between LAP, VAI, and risk of hypertension prevalence ( < 0.01 for overall trend and < 0.01 for nonlinearity). Lipid accumulation product and visceral adiposity index may be risk factors for hypertension in oil workers. LAP and VAI have certain predictive value for hypertension.
