Abstract

Objetivo Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar o tabagismo, consumo alcoólico e tempo de sono associados aos fatores sociodemográficos em trabalhadores fisicamente ativos do Paraná. Metodologia Participaram 907 indivíduos (71 % homens e 29 % mulheres) que responderam o Questionário Avaliação da Qualidade de Vida e Saúde (QVS-80). Os participantes ativos corresponderam a 389 trabalhadores. Foi aplicado teste quiquadrado, quiquadrado (tendência linear) e exato de Fisher considerando p<0,05. Resultados A prevalência de atividade física (AF) foi maior entre homens (49 %) que em mulheres (26 %) (p<0,01). Mulheres jovens (p<0,01) com maior escolaridade (p<0,01) apresentaram maior tendência a AF. Tabagismo ocorreu em 15 % dos trabalhadores ativos, nos homens associado à idade (p<0,05) e nível de instrução (p<0,01). Relatou-se consumo alcoólico inadequado em 8 % dos homens ativose 3 % das mulheres (p<0,05). Tempo de sono não adequado foi associado à idade (p<0,01) em ambos os gêneros, e renda familiar (p<0,05) em mulheres. Conclusão Trabalhadores que praticam AF apresentam menor consumo de tabaco e álcool se comparados a resultados publicados com trabalhadores e populações inativas.

Objective This study was aimed at verifying smoking, alcohol consumption and sleep time associated with sociodemographic factors in physically active industrial workers in the state of Paraná in Brazil. Methods Nine hundred and seven subjects volunteered (71% men and 29% women) to answer a questionnaire aimed at assessing their quality of life and health (QVS-80). The volunteers included 389 physically active workers. The Chi-square test and Chi-square test for linear trend were used for analyzing the data so collected (p<0.05). Results Physical activity (PA) prevalence was higher amongst men (49%) compared to women (22%) (p<0.01). Younger women (p<0.01) having a higher educational level (p<0.01) trended to engage in PA (p<0.01). Smoking was identified in 15% of the active workers; this was associated with age (p<0.05) and educational level (p<0.01) in male workers. Alcohol abuse was present in 8% of men and 3% of women (p<0.05). Inadequate sleep time was associated with increased age (p<0.01) in both genders and lower family income (p<0.05) in women. Conclusion Physically active workers had lower tobacco and alcohol consumption compared to physically inactive workers in previous studies.

Objetivo Este estudio tuvo como objetivo verificar tabaquismo, consumo de alcohol y tiempo de sueño asociada con factores sociodemográficos en los trabajadores de Paraná, físicamente activos. Métodos Los participantes fueron 907 personas (71% hombres, 29% mujeres) que respondieron al Cuestionario de Evaluación de la Calidad de Vida y Salud (QVS-80). Los participantes activos representaron 389 trabajadores. Se utilizaron Chi-cuadrado, chi-cuadrado para tendencia lineal y la prueba exacta de Fisher, considerando p<0,05. Resultados La prevalencia de actividad física (AF) fue mayor entre los hombres (49%) que las mujeres (26%) (p<0,01). Las mujeres jóvenes (p<0,01) con educación superior (p<0,01) fueron más propensos a la fibrilación auricular. Fumaban el 15% de los trabajadores activos, hombres, lo que se relacionó con la edad (p<0,05) y el nivel educativo (p<0,01). Se presentó abuso en el consumo de alcohol en el 8% de los hombres activos y 3% de las mujeres (p<0,05). El tiempo inadecuado de sueño se asoció con el incremento de la edad (p<0,01) en ambos sexos, y con el ingreso familiar bajo (p<0,05) en las mujeres. Conclusiones Los trabajadores que practican AF tienen un menor consumo de tabaco y alcohol en comparación con los resultados de estudios previos en trabajadores inactivos.

Mortality associated with sleep duration and insomnia.

Daniel F. Kripke, Lawrence Garfinkel, Deborah L. Wingard … (2002)

Patients often complain about insufficient sleep or chronic insomnia in the belief that they need 8 hours of sleep. Treatment strategies may be guided by what sleep durations predict optimal survival and whether insomnia might signal mortality risks. In 1982, the Cancer Prevention Study II of the American Cancer Society asked participants about their sleep duration and frequency of insomnia. Cox proportional hazards survival models were computed to determine whether sleep duration or frequency of insomnia was associated with excess mortality up to 1988, controlling simultaneously for demographics, habits, health factors, and use of various medications. Participants were more than 1.1 million men and women from 30 to 102 years of age. The best survival was found among those who slept 7 hours per night. Participants who reported sleeping 8 hours or more experienced significantly increased mortality hazard, as did those who slept 6 hours or less. The increased risk exceeded 15% for those reporting more than 8.5 hours sleep or less than 3.5 or 4.5 hours. In contrast, reports of "insomnia" were not associated with excess mortality hazard. As previously described, prescription sleeping pill use was associated with significantly increased mortality after control for reported sleep durations and insomnia. Patients can be reassured that short sleep and insomnia seem associated with little risk distinct from comorbidities. Slight risks associated with 8 or more hours of sleep and sleeping pill use need further study. Causality is unproven.
