Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between health promoting lifestyle and metabolic related indicators of military pilots.Methods:The physical examination data of 342 pilots in Air Force Healthcare Center for Special Services, Hangzhou were collected. Health-promoting Lifestyle Profile-Ⅱ (HPLP-Ⅱ) was used to score and analyze the relationship between health promoting lifestyle and metabolic related indicators. The test results of metabolic indicators and the score of HPLP-Ⅱ of the pilots in different age groups were compared.Results:A total of 328 effective questionnaires were obtained, with the effective rate of 95.91%. The pilots were divided into 3 groups, including ≤30 years group (159 cases), 31-40 years group (110 cases), and ≥40 years group (59 cases). There were 87 unhealthy lifestyle cases (26.52%) with HPLP-Ⅱ grades in general, 202 good cases (61.59%) and 39 excellent cases (11.89%). The scores of nutritional status, physical activity, stress management and the total score of HPLP-Ⅱ of pilots were negatively correlated with triglyceride levels ( r=-0.230--0.143, P<0.01). The nutritional status score was positively correlated with high-density lipoprotein ( r=0.112, P=0.043). The scores of self-actualization, interpersonal relationship, health responsibility, nutritional status, physical activity, stress management and the total score of HPLP-Ⅱ were all negatively correlated with fasting plasma glucose ( r=-0.221--0.134, P<0.01 or 0.05). The scores of nutritional status and physical activity were negatively correlated with arteriosclerosis index ( r=-0.147, -0.114, P=0.008, 0.039). There were significant differences in diastolic blood pressure, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein, total cholesterol, fasting plasma glucose, arteriosclerosis index, γ-glutamyl transferase and body mass index among pilots in different age groups ( F=3.591-18.809, P<0.05 or 0.01). There were significant differences in interpersonal relationship, physical activity, stress management and the total score of HPLP-Ⅱ among pilots in different age groups ( F=3.084-5.083, P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusion:The health promoting lifestyle of pilots is related to the metabolic indicators. It is recommended that pilots should improve the unhealthy lifestyles and the relevant indicators should be tested.
