|
This study analyzed the health characteristics and comorbidity of adult men aged 40 years by dividing them into a controlgroup of those without any disease related to fine dust and a patient group with one or more diseases related to fine dustin areas with high levels of fine dust pollution using the sixth and seventh Korea National Health andNutrition Examination Survey (2013-2017). Among the general characteristics, the mean age of the patient group wassignificantly older than that of the control group (p<0.001), and in terms of the health-related characteristics, the frequencyof breakfast consumption in the patient group was higher than in the control group (p<0.043). The body measurementswere similar in the patient and control groups. Regarding the prevalence of comorbidity, the patient group showed a higherprevalence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and diabetes than the control group,but the differences were not statistically significant. On the other hand, the prevalence of other cancers (except stomachcancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, and cervical cancer) in the patient group was higher than in the controlgroup (p<0.05). In terms of the clinical characteristics, the glycated hemoglobin levels in the patient group were significantlyhigher than in the control group (p<0.048). Information on nutrition and health in areas with frequent occurrences of finedust was obtained through the study results, which can be used as basic data for measures of health and diet managementagainst diseases that will increase in relation to fine dust.
