This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
Objective. To analyze the association between patterns of food consumption markers with high blood pressure levels among Brazilians. Methods. Cross-sectional study with data from the National Health Survey, with outcome high blood pressure levels, measured during an interview, between August and November 2013. Food patterns, the exposure variables, were identified. Prevalence ratio (PR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were calculated using multivariable Poisson regression. Results. The prevalence of high blood pressure levels was 16.0% (95%CI 15.3;16.7) of the 37,216 participants, being higher in those with a diet that included meat and alcoholic beverages (PR=1.21 95%CI 1.08;1.35). The pattern with highest presence of greens and vegetables did not show a statistically significant association com níveis pressóricos elevados (PR=0.94 95%CI 0.84;1.06). Conclusion. The pattern with meat and alcoholic beverages was associated with high blood pressure levels.
RESUMO
Objetivo. Analisar a associação entre padrões de marcadores do consumo alimentar com níveis pressóricos elevados em brasileiros. Métodos. Estudo transversal, com dados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde, tendo como desfecho níveis pressóricos elevados, aferidos durante entrevistas realizadas entre agosto e novembro de 2013. Foram identificados padrões de marcadores do consumo alimentar, as variáveis de exposição. Calculou-se razão de prevalências (RP) e intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC95%) por regressão de Poisson multivariável. Resultados. A prevalência de níveis pressóricos elevados foi de 16,0% (IC95% 15,3;16,7) na amostra de 37.216 participantes, sendo maior naqueles com dieta que incluía carne e bebidas alcoólicas (RP=1,21 IC95% 1,08;1,35). O padrão com maior presença de verduras e legumes não apresentou associação estatisticamente significante com níveis pressóricos elevados (RP=0,94 IC95% 0,84;1,06). Conclusão. O padrão marcado pelo consumo de carne e bebidas alcoólicas mostrou-se associado com níveis pressóricos elevados.
