ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To verify factors associated with deteriorating lifestyle during the COVID-19 pandemic, including physical activity, cigarette and alcohol intake in lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transsexuals, transvestites and people with related identities (LGBT+).METHODS:
This was a cross-sectional study with individuals aged ≥18 years. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).RESULTS:
Of the 975 participants, 48.9% (95%CI 45.7;52.1) decreased physical activity, 6.2% (95%CI 4.8;7.9) increased cigarette smoking, and 17.3% (95%CI 15.0;19.8) increased alcohol intake. Physical activity deteriorated among individuals who adhered to mask use (OR=2.26; 95%CI 1.20;4.23), cigarette smoking increased among individuals who had a chronic health condition (OR=2.39; 95%CI 1.03;5.56), and alcohol intake increased among cisgender women (OR=1.95; 95%CI 1.31;2.92) and individuals living with a partner (OR=1.89; 95%CI 1.23;2.91).CONCLUSION:
Lifestyle deterioration stood out among cisgender women, individuals with a chronic health condition and those who adhered to mask use.
