Abstract

Purpose: Adult Korean men belonging to the main economically active population are known to have long sedentary hours. This study was undertaken to determine the difference and relevance of sedentary hours on the nutrition, diet, and health status of adult men, and to suggest how to prevent health risk factors. Methods: Subjects (n = 1,068) were classified into 4 groups based on their sedentary hours, ranging from the first quartile (Q1) having the least hours spent sitting, to the fourth quartile (Q4) spending the longest hours. Results: Subjects belonging to Q4 had the lowest average age, the largest waist circumference, and the highest level of education. Among those engaged in economic activities, the ratio of white-collar workers was significantly higher in Q4. Accordingly, the rate of not doing high-intensity or moderate-intensity physical activity while working was also the highest in Q4. A significant difference was obtained in the drinking frequency between groups, but this was found to be associated with the average working hours rather than sedentary hours. The proportion of not doing aerobic exercise was higher with longer sitting hours. The highest diagnosis of diabetes (8.8%) was obtained in the Q4 group. Among the factors related to cardiovascular disease, only low density lipoprotein-cholesterol showed a significant difference, with Q4 being significantly higher than Q1. Considering energy and nutrient intake, vitamin B1 and calcium intake were the lowest in the group with the longest sitting hours, as well as the least consumption of vitamin C than the recommended estimated average requirement. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that the health and nutritional status of Korean adult men are affected by sedentary hours. This should be recognized as a health risk factor and guidelines need to be developed for sedentary lifestyle management.

성인 남성은 주된 경제활동 인구로서 앉아서 보내는 시간이 상대적으로 길어 이들의 좌식 시간과 건강의 연관성에 대한 관심과 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 성인 남성의 좌식 시간과 영양, 식이 및 건강 행태의 차이와 관련성에 대해 알아보고 건강 위험 요인을 예방하기 위한 가이드라인의 기초자료로 활용하는 것이다. 피험자 (n = 1,068)는 평소 하루 앉아서 보내는 시간 (시간 및 분)에 따라 4개 그룹으로 분류하였다. 좌식 시간이 가장 긴 그룹의 대상자는 평균 연령이 가장 낮았고 허리둘레가 유의적으로 가장 컸다. 또한 좌식 시간이 가장 긴 그룹의 교육수준과 White collar의 비율이 높았고, 이에 따라 업무 중 고강도와 중강도 신체활동을 하지 않는 비율 또한 높았다. 최근 1년의 음주 빈도는 그룹 간 유의적인 차이는 있었으나, 좌식 시간이 가장 짧은 그룹과 가장 높은 그룹에서 가장 빈번하였으며, 이는 좌식 시간보다는 평균 근로시간과 비슷한 경향이었다. 걷기와 근육 운동 횟수에는 그룹 간 차이가 없었지만, 유산소 운동 실시 비율은 좌식 시간이 긴 그룹에서 더 낮게 나타났다. 식이습관, 평일 수면시간 및 정신건강은 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 당뇨병 의사 진단을 받은 사람은 좌식 시간이 가장 긴 그룹에 가장 많았으나, 골다공증, 관절염, 골관절염, 류마티스성 관절염은 유병 빈도가 미미하였고 그룹 간 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 심혈관질환과 관련된 요인 중 LDL-콜레스테롤만 유의적인 차이가 있었는데, 좌식 시간이 가장 긴 그룹의 혈중 LDL-콜레스테롤 농도가 가장 높았다. 에너지 및 영양소 섭취량의 경우 좌식 시간이 가장 긴 그룹의 비타민 B1과 칼슘 섭취량이 가장 적었고, 비타민 C를 EAR보다 적게 섭취한 분율이 가장 높았다. 본 연구 결과는 한국 성인 남성의 건강 및 영양상태 등이 좌식 시간과 관련이 있다는 것을 시사하므로 좌식 시간을 건강 위험요인으로 인지하고 이를 예방하고 해결할 수 있는 가이드라인을 개발하여야 할 것으로 사료된다.
