Purpose: The purpose of this study is to identify related factors of the serum lipids and the blood pressure in adults aged more than 19 in Korea, with impaired fasting glucose, and to help to develop a health care program for impaired fasting glucose group.
Method: This study is cross-sectional research based on 2012 National Health and Nutrition Survey Data. The study subjects were 346 adults aged more than 19, with impaired fasting glucose. Obtain data were analyzed by using χ2-test and logistic regression with the SPSS//WIN18.0 program.
Result: 1. The proportion of normal level group in total cholesterol, triglyceride, and blood pressure merely accounted for 48.6%, 52.5%, and 34.0%, respectively.
2. As to total cholesterol, the group of those who eat out once or twice a week and the group of those who eat out more than three times a week had significantly higher odds(OR=3.28, OR=4.22, respectively) of belonging to boundary level group in total cholesterol, compared with the group of those who eat out less than three times monthly.
3. As to triglyceride, the obese group had significantly higher odds(OR=5.27) of belonging to boundary group in triglyceride and significantly higher odds(OR=5.55) of belonging to the abnormal level group in triglyceride, compared with the normal weight group. The group of those who do exercise with a more than moderate level had significantly higher odds(OR=0.30) of belonging to the boundary group in triglyceride, compared with the group of those who do not.
4. As to blood pressure, The overweight group had significantly higher odds (OR=3.25) of belonging to hypertension group, compared with the normal weight group. The group of those who eat out more than three times a week had significantly higher odds(OR=3.13) of belonging to prehypertension group, compared with the group of those who eat out less than three times a month. The harmful drinking group had significantly higher odds(OR=4.08) of belonging to hypertension group, compared with the non-drinking group. The ex-smoking group had significantly higher odds(OR=3.48) of belonging to prehypertension group and had significantly higher odds(OR=2.74) of belonging to hypertension group, compared with the non-smoking group.
Conclusion: It is necessary to include an plan of managing total cholesterol, triglyceride and blood pressure in developing a health care program for impaired fasting glucose group. To do that, it is required to intensively care for the overweight group, the obese group, and the group of those who eat out more than once a week, to keep making follow-up observation on the ex-smoker, and to come up with a plan to manage exercise with a more than moderate level and living habits including drinking.
