This study aimed to assess its relationship between physical activity with health-related indicators in older population of the China. Cross-sectional data of 1,327 individuals aged 60-79 years were analyzed. Based on the Fifth National Physical Fitness Monitoring Program, depressive symptom and loneliness were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Emotional versus Social Loneliness Scales, respectively. Sleep quality was evaluated through self-designed questionnaire and hypertension was defined as blood pressure > 140/90 mmHg. International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Long Form was conducted to assess the physical activity (minutes and frequency) in different domains (domestic, transport, work, and leisure). Multivariable-adjusted binary logistic regression models estimated for the prevalence of health-related indicators, considering PA level, duration, frequency, and combinations of different domains of PA. In the study, favorable associations were observed between moderate to high level PA and reductions in 4 health-related indicators, especially for active frequency. Moreover, a combination of transport, domestic, and leisure PA was found to be a general protective factor for health-related indicators. In summary, this study highlights the positive impact of PA on older adults' health and provides valuable insights into the role of different PA patterns, offering a theoretical basis for developing PA guidelines, policies, and health interventions.
本研究旨在评估中国老年人群体育活动与健康相关指标之间的关系。对1327名年龄在60 - 79岁的个体的横断面数据进行了分析。基于第五次全国体质监测方案，分别使用患者健康问卷-9和情感与社交孤独量表测量抑郁症状和孤独感。通过自行设计的问卷评估睡眠质量，高血压定义为血压>140/90 mmHg。采用国际体力活动问卷长表评估不同领域（家务、交通、工作和休闲）的体育活动（分钟数和频率）。考虑到体育活动水平、持续时间、频率以及不同领域体育活动的组合，采用多变量调整的二元逻辑回归模型估计健康相关指标的患病率。在该研究中，观察到中度至高水平体育活动与4项健康相关指标的降低之间存在良好关联，尤其是活动频率。此外，发现交通、家务和休闲体育活动的组合是健康相关指标的一般保护因素。总之，本研究突出了体育活动对老年人健康的积极影响，并为不同体育活动模式的作用提供了有价值的见解，为制定体育活动指南、政策和健康干预措施提供了理论依据。
