其目的是通过一项具有代表性的英国纵向研究来调查肥胖和肥胖之间的关系。我们还调查了年龄、性别和生育特征是否会影响相关性。使用了来自英国家庭纵向研究三波（2009-2012）的9，421名16岁以上参与者的数据。评估体重指数、腰围和体脂百分比。照顾和照顾的特点（每周小时数，照顾的人数，共同居住的照顾和结合工作和照顾）是从前一波。性别分层之间的关联生育/生育特征与肥胖进行了测试。协变量包括照顾者的健康，社会经济地位，父母身份和伙伴关系。照顾与女性的肥胖率较高有关，但与男性无关。年轻的女性照顾者有特别高的肥胖水平。从事兼职工作的男性比从事全职工作的男性有更高的肥胖水平。与全职工作相比，16-44岁或65岁以上的女性在全职工作和兼职工作相结合时的肥胖水平特别高。照顾者的健康应是公共卫生的优先事项，特别是对年轻妇女和既有有偿工作又有双重责任的妇女。
The aim was to investigate associations between caregiving and adiposity using a representative UK longitudinal study. We also investigated whether associations differed by age, gender and caregiving characteristics. Data on 9,421 participants aged 16+ from three waves (2009–2012) of the UK Household Longitudinal Study were used. Body mass index, waist circumference and percentage body fat were assessed. Caregiving and caregiving characteristics (hours per week, number of people cared for, co-resident caregiving and combining working and caregiving) was available from the prior wave. Gender-stratified associations between caregiving/caregiving characteristics with adiposity were tested. Covariates included caregiver’s health, socioeconomic position, parenthood and partnerships. Caregiving was associated with higher adiposity for women but not men. Younger women caregivers had particularly higher levels of adiposity. Men combining part-time paid work with caregiving had higher levels of adiposity than men working full-time and not caregiving. Women aged 16–44 or 65+ had particularly high levels of adiposity when combining full-time work and caregiving, compared to full-time work alone. The health of caregivers should be a public health priority, particularly for younger women and those combining paid work with caregiving responsibilities.
