To estimate (1) Prevalence of risk factors namely physical inactivity, unhealthy dietary habits, tobacco, and alcohol use among them and (2) The proportion of hypertension.
A cross-sectional study was done among 416 11 and 12 standard students from a school of a metropolitan city.
Two steps were conducted. Step 1 included an interview schedule and Step 2 involved anthropometry, pulse, and blood pressure of all the participants. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 21. Chi-square test was applied.
The prevalence of tobacco and alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, and unhealthy dietary habits were 5.5%, 5%, 74.5%, and 52.1%, respectively. The prevalence of overweight students was 13.9%. The prevalence of prehypertension and hypertension was 26.9% and 12.7%, respectively.
It was concluded that these risk factors namely, physical inactivity, unhealthy dietary habits, tobacco, and alcohol consumption commence during adolescence.
与生活方式相关的风险因素可能始于儿童期,并在成年后导致心血管疾病。因此,在大专学生中开展了一项研究,以评估他们当中这些可预防的风险因素。
估算(1)他们当中身体活动不足、不健康饮食习惯、吸烟和饮酒等风险因素的患病率,以及(2)高血压的比例。
对来自一个大城市一所学校的416名11年级和12年级学生进行了一项横断面研究。
分两个步骤进行。步骤1包括一份访谈问卷,步骤2涉及所有参与者的人体测量、脉搏和血压测量。使用SPSS 21进行统计分析,应用卡方检验。
吸烟和饮酒、身体活动不足以及不健康饮食习惯的患病率分别为5.5%、5%、74.5%和52.1%。超重学生的患病率为13.9%。高血压前期和高血压的患病率分别为26.9%和12.7%。
得出的结论是,这些风险因素,即身体活动不足、不健康饮食习惯、吸烟和饮酒,始于青春期。
