目的:评估商务旅行程度与健康之间的关系。研究方法:使用EHE International,Inc.提供的13,057名患者的病历数据评估了商务旅行与心血管疾病风险因素之间的关系。结果如下:与轻度旅行者(每月1至6晚)相比,非旅行者更有可能报告健康状况不佳/一般(比值比= 1.58; 95%置信区间[CI]:1.33至1.87),比值比随着旅行次数的增加而增加,在大量旅行者(每月>20晚)中达到2.61(95% CI:1.57至4.33)。与轻度旅行者相比,肥胖的优势比在非旅行者(优势比= 1.33; 95%CI:1.18至1.50)和广泛旅行者(优势比= 1.92; 95%CI:1.25至2.94)中最高。虽然差异很小,但非旅行者和广泛旅行者的舒张压最高,高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平最低。结论:自我评估的健康状况差和肥胖与大量的商务旅行有关。
Objective: To assess associations between extent of travel for business and health. Methods: Associations between business travel and cardiovascular disease risk factors were assessed using medical record data from 13,057 patients provided by EHE International, Inc. Results: Compared with light travelers (1 to 6 nights per month), nontravelers were more likely to report poor/fair health (odds ratio = 1.58; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.33 to 1.87) and the odds ratios increased with increasing travel, reaching 2.61 (95% CI: 1.57 to 4.33) among extensive travelers (>20 nights per month). Compared with light travelers, the odds ratios for obesity were highest among nontravelers (odds ratio = 1.33; 95% CI: 1.18 to 1.50) and extensive travelers (odds ratio = 1.92; 95% CI: 1.25 to 2.94). Although the differences were small, nontravelers and extensive travelers had the highest diastolic blood pressure and lowest high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Conclusion: Poor self-rated health and obesity are associated with extensive business travel.
