Investigation of health and nutrition status of middle-aged and old residents in the urban district of Chongqing.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the health and nutrition status in middle-aged and old people in the urban district of Chongqing City, China in order to provide a rational diet construction for the population. METHOD:This investigation was performed in 2004 and 1801 public officials both at post and retired in the urban district of Chongqinging City were enrolled in this investigation. Among them 96.7% were at age of over 40. The investigation was based on questionnaire, physical examination, laboratory biochemical test and bone density measurement. RESULT:In the incidences of nutrition-related non-communicable diseases, overweight/obesity accounted for 50.5%, hyperlipidemia 36.1%, hypertension 30.3%, fatty liver 22.3%, osteoporosis 16.1%, hyperuricemia 12.2%, and diabetes 11.2%, while the incidence of dystrophy is low. Correlation analysis of these diseases demonstrated that the rates of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, fatty liver, diabetes, coronary heart disease and gallstone were significantly higher in overweight or obesity than in normal-weight people. The rates of hypertriglyceride, hypercholesteremia, diabetes, hyperuricemia, coronary heart disease, and fatty liver were higher in people with hypertension than in people with normal blood pressure. The rates of hypertension, hypertriglyceride and hypercholesteremia, coronary heart disease and fatty liver were higher in diabetes than in non-diabetes people. CONCLUSION:Our study shows that health and nutrition status of the public officials of Chongqing city is not favourable. Overnutrition is the main problem.
