身体活动(PA)与许多慢性疾病的风险呈负相关。因此,了解PA模式及其相关因素具有重要的公共卫生意义。研究方法:我们在上海男性健康研究(SMHS)中评估了PA模式及其与社会经济地位和生活方式因素的关系,该研究包括61,582名年龄40-74岁的中国男性(参与率:74.1%),居住在中国上海市的八个社区。PA的信息,从运动,家务,步行和骑自行车的交通和日常生活活动,收集了面对面的访谈,使用有效的问卷。进行Logistic回归分析。结果如下:35.6%的研究参与者报告参与锻炼,22.6%和23.5%的人报告步行和骑自行车进行交通,99.9%和24.5%的人报告步行和骑自行车进行日常生活活动。9%的人有高PA的工作。除家务劳动外,各种PA在老年男性中更为常见。教育和收入水平与运动和家务呈正相关,但与交通和日常生活活动呈负相关。BMI越高的男性运动量越多,而腰臀比越高的男性在各种PA中的活动量越少。目前的吸烟者,特别是重度吸烟者,在所有类型的PA中的活性均低于既往吸烟者和非吸烟者。目前饮酒者,饮茶者和人参使用者更有可能参加运动,但不太可能参加非运动PA。总能量摄入与PA呈正相关,除了家务。结论:尽管运动/体育的参与率较低,但上海的大多数中年和老年男性参与了高水平的非运动性PA。他们的PA模式与社会经济/生活方式因素密切相关。
Introduction: Physical activity (PA) is inversely related to the risk of many chronic diseases. Understanding PA patterns and their correlates thus has significant public health implications. Methods: We evaluated PA patterns and their association with socioeconomic status and lifestyle factors in the Shanghai Men's Health Study (SMHS), a cohort of 61,582 Chinese men (participation rate: 74.1%) ages 40-74 living in eight communities of urban Shanghai, China. Information on PA from exercise, household chores, and walking and bicycling for transportation and daily living activities was collected by in-person interviews using a validated questionnaire. Logistic regression analyses were conducted. Results: Participation in exercise was reported by 35.6% of study participants, walking and cycling for transportation by 22.6% and 23.5%, and walking and cycling for daily living activities by 99.9% and 24.5%. Nine percent had high-PA jobs. All kinds of PA, except household chores, were more common in older men. Education and income levels were positively associated with exercise and housework but inversely associated with transportation and daily living activities. Men with higher BMI participated in more exercise, whereas those with higher waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) were less active in all kinds of PA. Current smokers, particularly heavy smokers, were less active in all kinds of PA compared with former smokers and nonsmokers. Current alcohol drinkers, tea drinkers, and ginseng users were more likely to participate in exercise but less likely to participate in nonexercise PA. Total energy intake was positively associated with PA, except for household chores. Conclusions: Despite low participation in exercise/sports, most middle-aged and elderly Chinese men in Shanghai participate in a high level of nonexercise PA. Their PA patterns are closely associated with socioeconomic/lifestyle factors.
