Using a cross-sectional population-based survey, electronic vapor product (EVP) use was evaluated in relation to physical activity levels among high school students in Georgia.
We used self-reported EVP and cigarette use from the data from 2018 (N =362 933) and used multi-level multinomial logistic regression models to estimate relative risks of the type of product use relative to no-use by levels of physical activity.
Nearly 7% of the students were EVP-only users. The relative risks of being an EVP-only user were 11% and 23% higher for those who were physically active 2-3 days/week and 4-5 days/week, respectively, compared to those who were physically active <=1 day/week.
Being physically active was positively associated with EVP use among adolescents. Health promotion education and health policies should be developed as a means of reducing EVP use among adolescents.
通过一项基于人群的横断面调查,对佐治亚州高中生中电子蒸汽产品(EVP)的使用情况与身体活动水平之间的关系进行了评估。
我们使用了2018年数据中自我报告的EVP和香烟使用情况(N = 362933),并使用多级多项逻辑回归模型来估计相对于不使用产品的情况,按身体活动水平划分的产品使用类型的相对风险。
近7%的学生仅使用EVP。与每周身体活动≤1天的学生相比,每周身体活动2 - 3天和4 - 5天的学生仅使用EVP的相对风险分别高出11%和23%。
身体活动与青少年使用EVP呈正相关。应制定健康促进教育和健康政策,以减少青少年中EVP的使用。
