OBJECTIVE: The objective is to evaluate the relationship between cholesterolemia, serum apolipoprotein B (apoB) level and blood pressure in a large sample of general population. METHODS: The Brisighella Heart Study (BHS) is a prospective, population-based longitudinal epidemiological investigation. For this study, we analysed the data sampled in the 2008 BHS population survey, excluding those participants treated with antihypertensive and/or lipid lowering drugs (N: 2473). RESULTS: In a sex, BMI, smoking habit, physical activity level and serum creatinine adjusted model, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) appears to be significantly related to SBP (P
