INTRODUCTION
The present study was conducted to assess the association of tobacco and alcohol consumption with cardiovascular risk factors among elderly population living at high altitude regions of India.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1003 elderly people living in district Nainital, Uttarakhand state, India. Thirty subjects were identified from 30 villages using population proportionate to size sampling methodology. The data on the consumption of tobacco and alcohol, mini nutritional assessment, Barthel activities of daily living scale, height, weight, blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, triglycerides, and total cholesterol was collected.
RESULTS
We found that smoking tobacco was associated with high cholesterol, lower body mass index, and low nutritional status (all, < 0.05). Elderly subjects who consumed alcohol had 1.56 times higher risk of having high fasting blood glucose.
CONCLUSIONS
Consumption of tobacco and alcohol increased the risk of cardiovascular diseases among elderly subjects. There is a need to improve these modifiable health behaviors through targeted educational and rehabilitation programs.
引言
本研究旨在评估印度高海拔地区老年人群中烟草和酒精消费与心血管危险因素之间的关联。
材料与方法
对印度北阿坎德邦奈尼塔尔地区居住的1003名老年人进行了一项横断面研究。采用按人口规模比例抽样方法从30个村庄中确定了30名受试者。收集了关于烟草和酒精消费、简易营养评估、巴氏日常生活活动量表、身高、体重、血压、空腹血糖、甘油三酯和总胆固醇的数据。
结果
我们发现吸烟与高胆固醇、较低的体重指数和低营养状况相关（所有P<0.05）。饮酒的老年受试者空腹血糖高的风险高出1.56倍。
结论
烟草和酒精消费增加了老年受试者患心血管疾病的风险。有必要通过有针对性的教育和康复项目来改善这些可改变的健康行为。
