RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the incidence and influencing factors of hypertension among civil aviation pilots. METHODS: A total of 1 169 civil aviation pilots in Northern China were selected into the study by the method of convenient sampling. Physical examination, laboratory test and questionnaire survey were conducted. RESULTS: The prevalence of hypertension in Northern China was 4.7%(55/1 169). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the relative risk factors ranking from high to low were, age over 30 years [odds ratio(OR)=6.81, 95% confidence interval(95%CI) 3.57-12.98)], total flight hours over 1 000 hours(OR=4.24, 95%CI 2.14-8.41), flight hours over 500 hours in the past year(OR=2.91, 95%CI 1.57-5.40), obesity(OR=2.50, 95%CI 1.08-5.81), fasting blood glucose(OR=2.24, 95%CI 1.21-4.13), and frequent long-distance flight(OR=2.38, 95%CI 1.24-4.58). These factors were the risk factors of hypertension in civil aviation pilots(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Age, total flight hours, flight hours in the past year, obesity, fasting blood glucose, frequent long-distance flight are related to the prevalence of hypertension in civil aviation pilots.
RESUMO
Objective To study the incidence of hyperlipaemia and fatty liver in civil aviation pilots,and provide evidence for enhancing physical quality of the civil aviation pilots.Methods Aecording to the physical exam-ination results.the incidence of hyperlipaemia and fatty liver in civil aviation pilots was analyzed.The incidence of hy-pedipaemia and fatty liver was compared.Results The incidence of hyperlipaemia and fatty liver of the civil aviation pilots showed increasing trend year by year,the incidence of group 41～50 years old was the highest.Conclusion It was necessary to detect and intervene hyperlipaemia and fatty liver in civil aviation pilots,so as to enhance physical quality of the civil aviation pilots,and prolong the flight life.
