We tested the efficacy of a 6-session, evidence-based health promotion intervention aimed at reducing noncommunicable disease (NCD) risk behaviors.
Two hundred male and female factory workers in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia were randomly assigned to groups receiving either the health promotion intervention or a time-matched financial literacy control intervention.
The health promotion intervention increased daily fruit and vegetable intake and physical activity, increased readiness for NCD risk behavior reduction and health promotion knowledge, and reduced the number of daily alcoholic drinks and diabetes symptoms 3 months after the intervention.
The findings support the efficacy of the intervention to reduce risk behaviors associated with NCDs. Dissemination of the intervention may improve productivity, reduce costs of health services, and better the quality of life for Mongolians.
我们测试了一种 6 节、基于证据的健康促进干预措施的效果,该措施旨在减少非传染性疾病(NCD)风险行为。
200 名蒙古乌兰巴托的男性和女性工厂工人被随机分配到接受健康促进干预或时间匹配的金融知识控制干预的组中。
健康促进干预措施增加了每日水果和蔬菜的摄入量和身体活动量,提高了减少 NCD 风险行为和健康促进知识的准备程度,并减少了每日饮酒量和糖尿病症状数 3 个月后的干预措施。
研究结果支持该干预措施减少与 NCD 相关的风险行为的有效性。该干预措施的传播可以提高生产力,降低卫生服务成本,改善蒙古人的生活质量。
