with physical inactivity in hypertensive females (AOR, 1.45; 95%CI, 1.03–2.04;P = 0.03) but not in hypertensive males (AOR, 1.15; 95%CI, 0.76–1.74;P = 0.5). The likelihood of smoking and physical inactivity significantly increased with increasing depressive symptoms severity (AOR, 1.26; 95%CI, 1.003–1.58;P = 0.04 for smoking, and AOR, 1.60; 95%CI, 1.34–1.91;P< 0.001 for physical inactivity). Conclusions: Depressive symptoms in hypertensive persons are associated with smoking and lack of physical activity with a differential effect of gender.
