ABSTRACT
Objective In order to explore the prevalence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)among residents aged over 40 in Yongjia County,and to provide basic data for the prevention and control strategies and measures of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.Methods Residents were investigated by questionnaire investigation,body measurements, and pulmonary function tests.Questionnaire survey was including demographic information,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease knowledge awareness,personal and family history of the disease,respiratory symptoms,case management of respiratory diseases,risk factors.Body measurements were including height,body weight,waist circumference,blood pressure and heart rate.Pulmonary function tests was including one second forced expiratory volume (FEV1 ),forced expiratory volume (FEV6 ) and forced vital capacity (FVC ).Results A total of 585 residents were investigated, including 85 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,and the prevalence rate of 1 4. 53%.Male chronic obstructive pulmonary morbidity was higher than female (χ2 =44. 29,P=0. 001 ),and with age increased,the prevalence rate increased (χ2 =1 9. 56,P<0. 001 ).Single factor analysis showed that the main risk factors were male,age ≥40, often cough /expectoration,smoking,occupational exposure history.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male (OR=1 . 962,95%CI:1 . 025 -3. 757),expectoration (OR=2. 346,95%CI:1 . 1 48 -4. 794)and age (in the age group of 50:OR=2. 561 ,95%CI:1 . 221 -5. 372;age≥60(OR=7. 438,95%CI:3. 601 -1 5. 361 )were the risk factors of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Conclusion Chronic obstructive pneumonia has become a public health problem that affects the health of the residents.We should take effective preventive measures against the risk factors.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the health related behavior among residents in Yongjia County,and to provide the basis for developing disease control and health promotion strategies.Methods Using cluster random sampling,4 002 people over the age of 18 were selected for this study from Yongjia County.Questionnaire developed including smoking, drinking,diet,physical activities and so on;an interview was performed.Results Among the 4 002 participants,The overall smoking rate was 17.14%,while the smoking rate in male was 41.65%,higher than that of female 1.83% (P <0.01).Passive smoking rate was 52.92%,which was higher in male than that of female (P <0.01).The rate of smoking cessation was 13.82%.The rate of drinking was 19.94%,and the drinking rate in male was 40.29%,which was higher than that of female (P <0.01).Drinking cessation rate was 7.85% in women,and there was no significant difference between male and females (P >0.05).Vegetable oil was the major oil for cooking.Meat,aquatic products,eggs and soybean products were the major kinds of food.Active exercise rate was 37.78%,and qualified rate of daily walking was 35.66%.Conclusion There exist some kinds of unhealthy lifestyles and behavioral risk factors in Yongjia County,and appropriate intervention measures should be taken.
