The clustering of health-related behaviours in the adult Japanese population.

Abstract:

:BackgroundResearch findings indicate that four health-related behaviours (HRBs), smoking, alcohol, diet, physical activity, do not co-occur within individuals by chance and therefore cluster. To date there is a lack of research investigating the clustering of these HRBs in the Japanese population.MethodsThe Japanese National Health and Nutrition Survey 2010 was used, containing information on 8,015 community-dwelling adults. Latent profile analysis identified distinct cluster patterns of four HRBs: smoking status, alcohol consumption, calorie intake and the number of steps per day.ResultsFor men, 4 distinct HRB clusters were identified. The largest cluster (54%) was characterised by drinking more than Japan's recommended alcohol guidelines and walking an inadequate number of steps per day. A small cluster (4%) also emerged, characterised by smoking, high calorie intake and exceeding alcohol guidelines. Members of these clusters had higher systolic blood pressure than those in the remaining clusters. For women, 5 distinct HRB clusters were identified. The largest cluster (57%) was characterised by not smoking or drinking and walking an inadequate number of steps per day. For both genders, there was a relationship between cluster membership and age. Cluster membership was associated with income and health status amongst men but not women.ConclusionDetecting distinct clusters of HRBs in a Japanese population-based survey provides a person-centred understanding of Japanese lifestyles. This approach can assist policy makers in Japan, and overseas, to identify new strategies for targeting behavioural risk factors and make health promotion policies more effective, in their respective countries.
