Popis: The rising prevalence of overweight and obesity is characterized as a pandemic of the modern era. The purpose of this study was to analyze the prevalence of overweight and obesity in healthy blood donors in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, Croatia, and the relationship between sociodemographic factors, lifestyle and eating habits, and body mass index (BMI), including the association of these factors with overweight and obesity. This cross-sectional study included 1255 healthy individuals aged between 18 and 70 years who donated blood between January 2015 and October 2016 at the Clinical Institute of Transfusion Medicine. Each participant completed a questionnaire regarding weight, height, blood type, socio-demographic factors, health parameters, physical activity, alcohol consumption, and smoking habits. Overweight was defined as BMI of 25-29.9 kg/m2, and obesity as BMI ≥30 kg/m2. A logistic regression model was used on data assessment. BMI was normal in 33.6% of participants, whereas 44.1% were overweight and 21.8% were obese. Higher BMI was correlated with male sex (odds ratio [OR]=0.21), lower education level (OR=0.77) and unhealthy diet (OR=0.57), whereas lower BMI was correlated with lower age (OR=2.05) and unemployment (OR=1.85). To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the prevalence of BMI in a healthy Croatian population; our results confirmed the findings of studies conducted in other European countries. Our results highlighted the importance of improving education levels and raising awareness of healthy dietary habits in high-risk groups, i.e. men and older individuals with lower education levels.
Sve veća učestalost pretilosti predstavlja pandemiju modernog doba. Svrha ovoga istraživanja bila je analiza učestalosti prekomjerne tjelesne težine i pretilosti u zdravih darivatelja krvi kao dijela zdrave populacije u Primorsko-goranskoj županiji, Hrvatska. Analiziran je utjecaj i povezanost socio-demografskih čimbenika, načina života, prehrambenih navika s indeksom tjelesne mase (ITM), prekomjernom težinom i pretilošću. Presječnim istraživanjem ispitano je 1255 zdravih osoba u dobi od 18 do 70 godina koje su darivale krv u razdoblju od siječnja 2015. do listopada 2016. u Kliničkom zavodu za transfuzijsku medicinu. Svaki sudionik ispunio je upitnik s podatcima o vlastitoj težini, visini, krvnoj grupi, socio-demografskim podatcima, pokazateljima zdravstvenog stanja, fizičkoj aktivnosti, konzumaciji alkohola i navikama pušenja. ITM od 25-29,9 kg/m2 definiran je kao prekomjerna težina, a ITM ≥30 kg/m2 kao pretilost. Za procjenu podataka korišten je logistički regresijski model. Normalan ITM imalo je 33,6% sudionika, 44,1% ispitanika je imalo prekomjernu težinu, a 21,8% je bilo pretilo. Visoki ITM bio je povezan s muškim spolom (omjer vjerojatnosti [OR]=0,21), nižom razinom obrazovanja (OR=0,77) i nezdravom prehranom (OR=0,57), dok je niži IT M bio povezan s nižom dobi (OR=2,05) i nezaposlenošću (OR=1,85). Prema našim saznanjima, ovo je prva studija koja istražuje učestalost IT M u zdravoj hrvatskoj populaciji; naši rezultati potvrđuju rezultate istraživanja provedenih u drugim europskim zemljama. Rezultati ovoga istraživanja naglašavaju važnost obrazovanja i podizanja svijesti o zdravim prehrambenim navikama, naročito u skupinama visokog rizika, tj. kod muškaraca i starijih osoba s nižim stupnjem obrazovanja.
