Objective: To understand the relationship between
secondhand smoke exposure and
dyslipidemia among
adults in
Beijing and to provide a scientific basis for relevant intervention.
Methods: Data were from
Beijing Adult Non-communicable and
Chronic Diseases and
Risk Factors Surveillance Program in 2017. A total of 13 240
respondents were selected by multistage cluster
stratified sampling method . The
monitoring contents include a
questionnaire survey , physical measurement, collection of
fasting venous
blood , and
determination of related biochemical
indicators . SPSS 20.0
software was used for the
chi-square test and multivariate
logistic regression analysis .
Results: The
prevalence of total
dyslipidemia (39.27%),
hypertriglyceridemia (22.61%), and high LDL-C (6.03%) were the highest among those exposed to daily
secondhand smoke . Among the
male respondents , the
prevalence of total
dyslipidemia (44.42%) and
hypertriglyceridemia (26.12%) were the highest among those exposed to
secondhand smoke daily. Multivariate
logistic regression analysis after
adjustment for confounding factors showed that compared with no exposure to
secondhand smoke , the
population with an average exposure frequency of 1-3 days per week had the highest
risk of total
dyslipidemia (OR=1.276, 95%CI 1.023-1.591). Among the
patients with
hypertriglyceridemia , those exposed to
secondhand smoke daily had the highest
risk (OR=1.356, 95%CI 1.107-1.661). Among the
male respondents , those exposed to
secondhand smoke for 1-3 days per week had a higher
risk of total
dyslipidemia (OR=1.366, 95%CI 1.019-1.831), and the highest
risk of
hypertriglyceridemia (OR=1.377, 95%CI 1.058-1.793). There was no significant correlation between the frequency of
secondhand smoke exposure and the
risk of
dyslipidemia among
female respondents .
Conclusions: Secondhand smoke exposure in
Beijing adults , especially
men ,
will increase the
risk of total
dyslipidemia , especially
hyperlipidemia . Improving personal
health awareness and minimizing or avoiding exposure to
secondhand smoke is necessary.
