Adults frequently consume sugar-sweetened beverages. These products are linked to negative health effects such as obesity. Our study was carried out to assess rates of weekly and daily sugar-sweetened beverages consumption in a multi-ethnic population of middle-aged men and association with sociodemographic variables and obesity.
A sum of 1,800 middle-aged men (36-59 years) living in Riyadh, KSA, participated in this cross-sectional study. Sociodemographic variables and the frequency of sugar-sweetened beverages consumption were gathered from participants using face to face interviews. Weekly and daily consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages were the two binary outcome variables applied in this research. Weight and height were measured following standard procedures.
In this study, 93.8 and 32.6% of participants consumed sugar-sweetened beverages weekly and daily, respectively. The weekly and daily sugar-sweetened beverages consumption was predicted by nationality. Subjects from Pakistan (99.3%) and Yemen (60.0%) reported the greatest rates of weekly and daily consumption, respectively, while Bangladeshi and Sudanese subjects reported the lowest rates of weekly (87%) and daily (2.9%) consumption, respectively. Another factor that predicted weekly sugar-sweetened beverages consumption was obesity. Obese subjects had a significantly greater odds ratio of weekly sugar-sweetened beverages intake than non-obese individuals (OR = 3.80, = 0.003).
Consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages is common among middle-aged men who live in KSA. Results show connecting sugar-sweetened beverages intake with specific sociodemographic variables and obesity.
成年人经常饮用含糖饮料。这些产品与肥胖等负面健康影响有关。我们开展这项研究旨在评估一个多民族中年男性群体中每周和每日含糖饮料的消费率,以及其与社会人口统计学变量和肥胖的关联。
总共1800名年龄在36 - 59岁、居住在沙特阿拉伯利雅得的中年男性参与了这项横断面研究。通过面对面访谈从参与者那里收集社会人口统计学变量和含糖饮料消费频率。本研究采用每周和每日含糖饮料消费这两个二元结果变量。按照标准程序测量体重和身高。
在本研究中,分别有93.8%和32.6%的参与者每周和每日饮用含糖饮料。每周和每日含糖饮料的消费情况可由国籍预测。来自巴基斯坦(99.3%)和也门(60.0%)的受试者每周和每日的消费率分别最高,而孟加拉国和苏丹受试者每周(87%)和每日(2.9%)的消费率分别最低。另一个预测每周含糖饮料消费的因素是肥胖。肥胖受试者每周摄入含糖饮料的优势比显著高于非肥胖个体(比值比 = 3.80,P = 0.003)。
在沙特阿拉伯生活的中年男性中,饮用含糖饮料的情况很普遍。结果显示含糖饮料的摄入与特定的社会人口统计学变量和肥胖有关。
