Non-hypertensive elderly were investigated and the results were statistically analyzed using SPSS 16.0 software. Results The prevalence of depressive symptoms was 64.4% in the elderly hypertensive group, which was higher than that in the control group (χ2 = 16.386, P <0.01). The age, gender, housing status, family support, family daily expenses and hobbies The prevalence of depressive symptoms in the elderly with blood pressure was higher than that in the control group (P <0.05), spouse, junior high school education and below, monthly income <2000 yuan, (OR = 1.499, 95% CI = 1.213-1.852) and hypertension (OR = 1.453, P <0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of depression in the elderly were as follows: 95% CI = 1.200 ~ 1.759) (P <0.05). The family members supported the family medical expenses (OR = 0.752, 95% CI = 0.592-0.956), hobbies (OR = 0.704, 95% CI = 0.560-0.885) = 0.473 ~ 0.700), and family daily expenses were enough (OR = 0.786,95% CI: 0.645-0.959) (P <0.05).
