Department of Non-Communicable Disease Prevention and Control, Shenzhen Nanshan Center for Chronic Disease, Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.
Background: We sought to assess the risk of hypertension based on the trajectory of changes in serum albumin concentrations.
Methods: A total of 11,946 nonhypertension adults aged 30-60 years who underwent at least 3 medical examinations between 2009 and 2016 were included in this study. Group-based trajectory models were obtained for 4 category groups, and logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for each category group of serum albumin concentration and the risk of hypertension.
