This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the interrelationship between leisure-time physical activity (LTPA), occupational stress, and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in law enforcement officers (LEOs).
A total of 229 LEOs completed a survey assessing their LTPA level, occupational stress, and CVD risk factors.
After adjusting for age and sex, physically inactive LEOs are more likely to have one or more CVD risk factors. While high occupational stress was associated with greater odds of CVD risk factors in physically inactive LEOs, stress was not significantly associated with the prevalence of CVD risk factors in active LEOs.
Our results suggest that occupational stress is associated with the prevalence of CVD risk factors in LEOs. Nevertheless, LTPA might have the potential to mitigate the impact of occupational stress on CVD risk factors.
本横断面研究旨在评估执法人员（LEOs）的休闲体育活动（LTPA）、职业压力和心血管疾病（CVD）危险因素之间的相互关系。
共有229名执法人员完成了一项调查，评估他们的休闲体育活动水平、职业压力和心血管疾病危险因素。
在对年龄和性别进行调整后，缺乏身体活动的执法人员更有可能存在一种或多种心血管疾病危险因素。虽然高职业压力与缺乏身体活动的执法人员出现心血管疾病危险因素的几率增加有关，但压力与积极参与体育活动的执法人员心血管疾病危险因素的患病率没有显著关联。
我们的结果表明，职业压力与执法人员心血管疾病危险因素的患病率有关。然而，休闲体育活动可能有潜力减轻职业压力对心血管疾病危险因素的影响。
