Abstract

The objective was to estimate the proportion of cases developed interim risk factors (INTF: overweight, excess abdominal fat, high blood pressure) in relation with behavioral risk factors (BEHF: smoking, heavy alcohol intake, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity). NOBIR group was defined as cases with no BEHF and BIR as those with them. Both groups show higher proportions of INTF in older age. The increase by age varies of twofold (overweight: 13.2-29.2 for men, 18.1-42.6 for women) to six fold (high blood pressure: 4.6-26.5 for men, 6.6-40.8 for women) in proportions. Women show higher proportions of INTF than men in both groups, but BIR group shows higher proportions than NOBIR in all the age groups taking the both gender together. As a BEHF the physical inactivity has a markedly increase with age (from 4% to more than 25%). Smoking is the only BEHF decreasing in oldest for all the INTF.

Abstract in Croatian

Cilj je procijeniti proporciju slučajeva koji su razvili internim faktore rizika (INTF: prekomjerna tjelesna težina, abdominalna debljina, visoki krvni tlak) u odnosu prema ponašajnim faktorima rizika (BEHF: pušenje, prekomjerno pijenje alkohola, nezdrava prehrana, fizička neaktivnost). U grupu NOBIR uključeni su slučajevi bez BEHF, a u BIR oni s BEHF. Obje grupe pokazale su višu proporciju INTF u starijoj dobi. Porast po dobi varira od dvostrukog (prekomjerna težina: 13,2–29,2 muški, 18,1–42,6 ženski) do šesterostrukog (visoki krvni tlak: 4,6–26,5 muški, 6,6–40,8 ženski). Žene imaju veću proporciju INTF-a nego muškarci u obim grupama, ali BIR pokazuje više vrijednosti nego NOBIR u svim dobnim grupama promatrajući oba spola zajedno. Fizička neaktivnost kao jedan od BEHF pokazuje zamjetni porast s dobi (od 4% do više od 25%). Pušenje je jedini BEHF koji se smanjuje u najstarijoj dobnoj grupi za sve INTF.
