Abstract:
The relationships between long-term blood pressure (BP) measures and intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), as well as their predictive ability on ICH, are unclear. In this study, we aim to investigate the independent associations of multiple BP measures with subsequent 5-year ICH risk, as well as the incremental value of these measures over a single-point BP measurement in ICH risk prediction. Methods and results We included 12 398 participants from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) who completed three surveys every 4–5 years. The following long-term BP measures were calculated: mean, minimum, maximum, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, average real variability, and cumulative BP exposure (cumBP). Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the associations between these measures and ICH. The potential incremental value of these measures in ICH risk prediction was assessed using Harrell’s C statistics, continuous net reclassification improvement (cNRI), and relative integrated discrimination improvement (rIDI). The hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of incident ICH associated with per standard deviation increase in cumulative systolic BP and cumulative diastolic BP were 1.62 (1.25–2.10) and 1.59 (1.23–2.07), respectively. When cumBP was added to the conventional 5-year ICH risk prediction model, the C-statistic change was 0.009 (−0.001, 0.019), the cNRI was 0.267 (0.070–0.464), and the rIDI was 18.2% (5.8–30.7%). Further subgroup analyses revealed a consistent increase in cNRI and rIDI in men, rural residents, and participants without diabetes. Other long-term BP measures showed no statistically significant associations with incident ICH and generally did not improve model performance. Conclusion The nearly 10-year cumBP was positively associated with an increased 5-year risk of ICH and could significantly improve risk reclassification for the ICH risk prediction model that included single-point BP measurement.
