    Conclusion:
    The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was high and the highest comorbidity was high blood pressure. Age was the only significant risk factor of having this syndrome.

    The study was conducted on obese patients attending the Obesity Clinic at Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia. This study might be relevant for our research since it is carried out in Kelantan, which is very near and it concluded that Hypertension was the most common metabolic comorbidity found in obese patients followed by reduced HDL, high triglyceride and
    high fasting blood glucose.

    PREDICTORS OF PROGRESSION FROM PREHYPERTENSION TO HYPERTENSION IN JAPANESE MAN

    Published: June 2009,Vol 22 number 6, 630-636, American Journal of Hypertension

    Conclusion: This 3-year prospective study suggested that the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and BMI, but not plasma CRP levels, are not powerful but significant independent markers to identify middle aged Japanese men with prehypertension at high risk of hypertension

    ini jumpa kat lib JHC, ada hardcopy sj. somehow apart from previously known risk such as obesity dia try relatekan plasma CRP level as a risk for prehpt to hpt, but concluded there is no relation.done in japan, still within asia,hope can use for our research

    To Investigate the Relation of Hypertension and Anthropometric Measurement among Elderly in Malaysia
    A.L. Latiffah and P. Hanachi

    http://scialert.net/qredirect.php?doi=jas.2008.3963.3968&linkid=pdf

    Abstract:
    This study aimed to determine the association between anthropometric measurement and dyslipidemia and their association with hypertension among older people. A cross sectional study was done among the residents in two old folks homes (Rumah Seri Kenangan Cheras and Little Sisters of the Poor) in urban Malaysia using a pre-tested guided questionnaire. Measurements taken were the blood pressure level, height and weight measurement and lipid profile. There were 92 respondents participated in the study. The prevalence of hypertension was 51.1%. The study found significant association between anthropometric measurement and hypertension although there was no difference in waist hip ratio measurement among hypertensive and normotensive individuals. Level of total cholesterol, LDL-C and triglycerides were significantly higher among hypertensive individuals compared to normotensive individuals. The prevalence rate of hypertension among residents in this study is higher compared to the national prevalence rate among the older adults.

    advancing age and anthropometric measurement found to have association with hpt in this study of elderly
