目标。促进参与体育组织可能是预防老年人跌倒的一项人口战略。在这项研究中，我们调查了参加体育组织是否与老年人较少摔倒有关，即使在调整了多种个人和环境因素后也是如此。方法：研究方法。我们使用了日本老年评估研究的数据，这些数据涉及不符合公共长期护理资格的90,610人(31个城市)。Logistic回归分析以过去一年多次跌倒为因变量，以参加某体育组织为自变量，控制13个因素。这些因素包括与瀑布有关的个人因素，如年龄和性别，以及环境因素，如宜居区的人口密度。结果。共有6,391名受试者(7.1%)有多次跌倒的病史。尽管控制了13个变量，那些每周至少参加一次体育组织的人摔倒的可能性比根本没有参加的人低约20%(每周一次；优势比=0.82，95%可信区间=0.72-0.95)。结论。每周至少参加一次体育组织可能有助于防止社区老年人跌倒。
Objective. Promoting participation in sport organizations may be a population strategy for preventing falls in older people. In this study, we examined whether participation in sport organizations is associated with fewer falls in older people even after adjusting for multiple individual and environmental factors. Methods. We used the Japan Gerontological Evaluation Study data of 90,610 people (31 municipalities) who were not eligible for public long-term care. Logistic regression analysis was performed, with multiple falls over the past year as the dependent variable and participation in a sport organization as the independent variable, controlling for 13 factors. These included individual factors related to falls, such as age and sex, and environmental factors such as population density of the habitable area. Results. A total of 6,391 subjects (7.1%) had a history of multiple falls. Despite controlling for 13 variables, those who participated in a sport organization at least once a week were approximately ≥20% less likely to fall than those who did not participate at all (once a week; odds ratio = 0.82 and 95% confidence interval = 0.72–0.95). Conclusion. Participation in a sport organization at least once per week might help prevent falls in the community-dwelling older people.
