背景:很大一部分加拿大人过着久坐的生活方式。在加拿大,描述特定种族群体的体育活动行为的数据很少,因此本研究的目的是探讨种族和自我报告的体育活动水平之间的关系。方法:收集加拿大社区健康调查1.1(2000/01)和2.1(2003)周期的数据(年龄20-64岁; N= 171,513)用于本研究。自我报告的休闲时间中度的加权患病率(>= 1.5千卡中心点kg(-1)中心点天(-1)(kkd));中度至高度(>= 3 kkd)和高体力活动(>= 6 kkd),并使用多元逻辑回归模型来量化不同种族群体中身体活动的几率,在对几个协变量进行调整后(白色参照组)。结果:按种族划分的中度体力活动的患病率的等级顺序为:白色(49%)、其他(48%)、北美原住民(47%)、拉丁美洲(40%)、东亚/东南亚(39%)、黑人(38%)、西亚/阿拉伯(36%)、南亚(34%)。土著男子和妇女体力活动≥ 3 kkd的流行率最高(男性= 32%,女性=22%),而东亚/东南亚(19%)和东亚/阿拉伯男子(19%)和南亚妇女(12%)的流行率最低。在考虑协变量后,土著男性与白人相比,身体活动的几率较高(>= 3 kkd,OR=1.6,p < 0.05; >= 6 kkd,OR=2.7,p < 0.05)。只有7%和3%的加拿大男性和女性,分别活跃在>= 6 kkd.Conclusion:这些结果表明,身体活跃的加拿大成年人的患病率因种族而异。促进身体活动和预防身体不活动的策略应该考虑这些发现。
Background: A large proportion of the Canadian population lives a sedentary lifestyle. Few data are available describing the physical activity behaviours among specific ethnic groups in Canada, so the purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between ethnicity and the level of self-reported physical activity.Methods: Pooled data from cycles 1.1 (2000/01) and 2.1 (2003) of the cross-sectional Canadian Community Health Survey (ages 20-64 yrs; N=1 71,513) were used for this study. Weighted prevalences of self-reported leisure-time moderate (>= 1.5 kcal center dot kg(-1) center dot day(-1) (kkd)); moderate to high (>= 3 kkd) and high physical activity (>= 6 kkd) were calculated, and multiple logistic regression models were used to quantify the odds of being physically active across ethnic groups, after adjustment for several covariates (White referent group).Results: The rank order of prevalence of being moderately physically active by ethnicity was: White (49%), Other (48%), NA Aboriginal (47%), Latin American (40%), East/Southeast Asian (39%), Black (38%), West Asian/Arab (36%), South Asian (34%). Aboriginal men and women had the highest prevalences of being physically active at >= 3 kkd (M=32%, F=22%) while East/Southeast Asian (19%) and East Asian/Arab men (19%), and South Asian women (12%) had the lowest prevalences. After accounting for covariates, Aboriginal men were at elevated odds of being physically active compared to Whites (>= 3 kkd, OR=1.6, p < 0.05; >= 6 kkd, OR=2.7, p < 0.05). Only 7% and 3% of Canadian men and women, respectively, were active at >= 6 kkd.Conclusion: These results suggest that the prevalence of physically active Canadian adults varies by ethnicity. Strategies to promote physical activity and prevent physical inactivity should consider these findings.
