Abstract

This study examined individual and combined influence of smoking, physical inactivity, alcohol drinking, and unhealthy diet on total mortality. Relationship between individual and combined poor health behaviours and total mortality were examined using Cox proportional hazards regression. Out of 7490 individuals included in the study, during 5 years follow up 808 died. Adjusted hazard ratios (HRs), and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for men with health behaviour scores 1, 2, 3, and 4 compared with those with score 0 were 1.67 (1.24-2.24), 2.28 (1.64-3.18), 2.24 (1.32-3.84), and 2.86 (0.77-11.70), respectively (p value for trend < 0.001). Adjusted HRs (95% CIs) for women with health behaviour scores 1, 2, and 3 compared with those with score 0 were 1.17 (0.97-1.42), 1.37 (1.02-1.86), and 1.20 (0.37-3.61), respectively (p value for trend = 0.04). A unit of the health behaviour score increased mortality risk equivalent to being 5.9 and 2.9 years older, for man and woman respectively.

Abstract in Croatian

Cilj ispitivanja je bio istražiti učinak rizičnih zdravstvenih ponašanja na opći mortalitet. Coxovim regresijskim modelom analiziralo se povezanost izabranih zdravstvenih ponašanja i općeg mortaliteta. Mortalitetni rizik povezan s rizičnim zdravstvenim ponašanjem usporedilo se s onim povezanim sa starenjem. U istraživanje je uključeno 7490 osoba od 18 i više godina. Tijekom 5-ogodišnjeg perioda praćenja umrlo je 808. Mortalitetni rizici i 95% intervali pouzdanosti muškaraca s 1, 2, 3 i 4 rizična zdravstvena ponašanja u usporedbi s onima koji nemaju nijedno rizično zdravstveno ponašanje su 1,67 (1,24–2,24), 2,28 (1,64–3,18), 2,24 (1,32–3,84) i 2,86 (0,77–11,70). Svako rizično zdravstveno ponašanje kod muškaraca povisi mortalitetni rizik jednako kao 5,9 godina života. Za žene s 1, 2 i 3 rizična zdravstvena ponašanja u usporedbi s onima koje nemaju nijedno rizično zdravstveno ponašanje rezultati su 1,17 (0,97–1,42), 1,37 (1,02–1,86) i 1,20 (0,37–3,61). Svako rizično zdravstveno ponašanje kod žena povisi mortalitetni rizik jednako kao 2,9 godina života.
