This study investigated the interaction effects between individual education and regional chemical fertilizer consumption on the risk of hypertension. It found that regional chemical fertilizer consumption was associated with an increased risk of hypertension for individuals with lower education.
Hypertension is a common and costly public health burden in China, while the interaction effects of individual and contextual level factors on the risk of hypertension remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether the interaction effects between individual education and regional chemical fertilizer consumption are associated with the risk of hypertension based on a cross-level interaction perspective. Data was from the China Hypertension Survey (CHS) study, which used a nationally representative sample, and was conducted between 2012 and 2015. A total of 379 467 participants aged over 18 years from 221 counties in 31 provinces were included. A cross-sectional study design and two-level logistic models were conducted to investigate the cross-level interaction between individual education and regional chemical fertilizer consumption on the risk of hypertension after adjusting for potential confounding variables. Compared to individuals with high education (college or more), the adjusted OR (95%CI) for hypertension among those in the high school, middle school, and elementary school or less was 1.16 (1.12-1.21), 1.25 (1.20-1.30), and 1.49 (1.43-1.55), respectively. The association between regional chemical fertilizer consumption and hypertension was not significant. Interaction analysis showed that regional chemical fertilizer consumption was associated with an increased risk of hypertension for individuals with lower education. These patterns were consistent after stratified by sex. This study provided evidence from the Chinese population that interaction between individual education and regional chemical fertilizer was associated with risk of hypertension. Future research and policy aimed to improve population health and reduce hypertension could address the regional context of population as well as individual factors.
