Abstract

As in the general population, age and BMI were major risk factors for hypertension in people with haemophilia. Renal dysfunction was associated with hypertension, but the prevalence of renal dysfunction was not extensive and furthermore not significantly correlated with haematuria. The associations of other variables with hypertension require further studies to confirm causal relationships over time.
