Abstract: Background and Objectives: Essential hypertension is the most common chronic disease. To provide a basis for developing
the prevention and control strategies of hypertension by epidemiological investigation on factors related to hypertension in health
examination population. Methods: Data of health examination population from Jilin municipal enterprise and public institutions during
January 2011 and July 2012 were randomly selected, and statistical analysis was performed for the age, gender, body mass index,
blood lipids, blood uric acid, serum creatinine, blood glucose and hypertension classification indexes. Results: 1859 patients were
diagnosed as hypertension. The detection rate of hypertension, awareness rate, new discovery rate, treatment rate, control rate and
rate of the patients with family history of hypertension were 21.0%, 27.5%, 72.5%, 19.1%, 6.0% and 26.7%, respectively. A statistically
significant difference was found in serum creatinine, blood glucose, serum cholesterol, L-DLC, coronary disease, stroke and diabetes
mellitus by the comparison among the different blood pressure grades. There was a difference in blood pressure, blood uric acid,
blood creatinine, glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, H-DLC, L-DLC and other indexes between female and male. No difference
was found in the family history of hypertension, renal damage, blood uric acid, triglycerides and H-DLC among the different blood
pressure levels. Conclusions: The hypertension in health examination population has the features of high new discovery rate, low
awareness rate and low treatment rate. The factors of age, gender, body mass index, serum creatinine, blood glucose, blood
cholesterol, L-DLC, coronary heart disease, stroke and diabetes are associated closely with hypertension. (IJCEM1308005).
