To explore the prevalence and risk factors of obesity among older adults from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
This is a secondary analysis of data obtained from the SIREN study through in-person interviews and measurements from healthy stroke-free older adults (≥60 years). Overweight/obesity was defined as body mass index 25 kg/m. Abdominal obesity was defined as waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) of >0.90 for males and >0.85/females or waist circumference (WC) of >102 cm for males/>88 cm for females. Adjusted odds ratio (aORs) with 95% confidence interval (CIs) of the relationship between obesity and sociodemographic factors were assessed at 0.05.
Overall, 47.5% of participants were overweight/obese, 76.6% had a larger than recommended WHR, and 54.4% had a larger than recommended WC. Abdominal obesity (WC; aOR: 9.43, CI: 6.99-12.50), being a Nigerian (aOR: 0.55; CI: 0.42-0.72), living in an urban setting (aOR: 1.92; CI: 1.49-2.46, earning $100/month (aOR: 1.53; CI: 1.19-1.96), and having formal education (aOR: 1.42; CI: 1.08-1.87) were associated with overweight/obesity.
Living in urban settings, earning a higher income, and having a formal education were associated with a higher odds of obesity among older adults from LMICs.
探讨低收入和中等收入国家(LMICs)老年人肥胖的患病率及危险因素。
这是一项对通过面对面访谈和测量从无中风的健康老年人(≥60岁)中获得的SIREN研究数据进行的二次分析。超重/肥胖定义为体重指数≥25kg/m²。腹型肥胖定义为男性腰臀比(WHR)>0.90,女性>0.85,或男性腰围(WC)>102cm/女性>88cm。在α=0.05的水平下评估肥胖与社会人口学因素之间关系的调整优势比(aORs)及其95%置信区间(CIs)。
总体而言,47.5%的参与者超重/肥胖,76.6%的人WHR高于推荐值,54.4%的人WC高于推荐值。腹型肥胖(WC;aOR:9.43,CI:6.99 - 12.50)、为尼日利亚人(aOR:0.55;CI:0.42 - 0.72)、生活在城市地区(aOR:1.92;CI:1.49 - 2.46)、月收入100美元(aOR:1.53;CI:1.19 - 1.96)以及接受过正规教育(aOR:1.42;CI:1.08 - 1.87)与超重/肥胖相关。
生活在城市地区、收入较高以及接受过正规教育与LMICs老年人肥胖几率较高相关。
