The current study aimed to assess the secular trends in overweight and obesity status and high blood pressure in Chinese children and adolescents over two decades. Data on 943,128 participants aged 7-17 years were obtained from the Chinese National Survey on Students’ Constitution and Health from 1995 to 2014. The population attributable risk of overweight status for high blood pressure was calculated. The prevalence of overweight increased from 4.3% in 1995 to 18.4% in 2014, while high blood pressure prevalence fluctuated in the range of 4.4% to 6.4% during the same time period, lowest in 2005. Within each survey year, blood pressure levels and high blood pressure prevalence increased with higher body mass index. Notably, the population attributable risk of high blood pressure due to being overweight steadily increased from 6.3% in 1995 to 19.2% in 2014. The same trends of linear growth for obesity, fluctuating blood pressure and its sustained increasing population attributable risk for overweight also occurred among the domestic 29 provinces. Despite dramatic increases in overweight prevalence among Chinese children from 1995 to 2014, the high blood pressure prevalence remained relatively stable, suggesting that other independent factors are affecting high blood pressure trends to a greater extent. Yet, overtime, the magnitude of the impact of being overweight or obese on high blood pressure increased sharply, predicting looming heavy burden of high blood pressure. Reductions in overweight status may aid in preventing high blood pressure so as to prevent coronary risk in adulthood.
