Pulse pressure (PP) has been linked to the risk of cardiovascular events (CVE). However, its relationship among different genders remains unclear. We aim to examine the association of PP with CVE in male and female participants.
A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the 2017-2023 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database. PP was calculated as difference between mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) and mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and categorized into tertiles. CVE was defined by composite of acute myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease, stroke, and heart failure. Multi-variable logistic regression adjusted for age, demographic data and other comorbidities was used to examine the association between tertiles of PP and CVE, stratified by sex.
Among the 2,815 adults, mean age±SD was 53.2±16.8 years, 43.9% were white, 39.8% were male, and 43.1% were hypertensive. The mean SBP and DBP were 126±19.1 and 75.1±11.9 mmHg, respectively. The mean, P33.3, P50 and P67 of PP were 50.9±15.2, 43, 48 and 54 mmHg, respectively. In fully adjusted models, the participants in the 3rd tertiles (T3) had 41% higher odds of experiencing at least one CVE (aORT3 1.41(1.01-1.97) P 0.041, compared to the 1st tertiles (T1)). In subgroup analysis by gender, there was a higher PP-CVE association in female participants (aORT3 1.77(1.03-3.09) P 0.041), but the association was not observed in male participants (aORT3 1.34(0.87-2.07) P 0.186)This study demonstrates a significant association between elevated PPandCVE, particularly among female participants. Further prospective studies are warranted to explore underlying mechanisms and to determine whether sex-specific strategies may enhance cardiovascular risk prediction and prevention.
