“…Inferential statistics involving “Cross-tabulation between dichotomous variables of total physical activity and metabolic syndrome risk factors, education, work status and income status were generated to assess the prevalence of physical activity/inactivity across the different socio-demographic/economic variables and metabolic syndrome risk factors” [10]. In the evaluation of Cardiovascular disease risk factors in a Nigerian population with impaired fasting blood glucose level and diabetes mellitus, optimal discriminant analysis and ‘Hierarchical Optimal Classification Tree Analysis’ was employed [11].…”

Prediabetes and cardiovascular complications study (PACCS): international collaboration 4 years’ summary and future direction

ObjectiveThe prediabetes and cardiovascular complications studies proposes to develop a screening protocol for diabetes cardiovascular risk, and strategies for holistic management amongst others. Over 500 participants were recruited in the first 2 years of rural community research screening. Specific for this report, various published findings were reviewed. The objective is to summarize research outcomes and itemize limitations as they constitute basis of future directions.ResultsAffordability and availability are major confounding behavioural change wheel factors in the rural community. 4.9% prevalence of prediabetes, which may be lower or non-significantly different in urban areas. Hyperglycaemia co-morbidity with dyslipidaemia (5.0%), obesity (3.1%) and hypertension (1.8%) were observed. Limitation of the study includes participants being mostly over 60 years old, which has created impetus for the Global Alliance on Chronic Diseases agenda on vulnerability of older adults to diabetes being a new direction of the collaboration. Other directions in Australia and Nepal focus on patients with chronic kidney disease with or without cardiovascular complications. This report highlights the need to translational research.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s13104-017-3017-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Linked to this, lower levels of PA were commonly found amongst populations living in urban as opposed to rural areas (reflecting the propensity for office-based work in urban areas). 94,96,97,101,103,105,107,112 Based on the data extracted from selected studies, education level played a key role and acted as a proxy for occupation and income in many studies. 9,97,102,106,112 In these studies,…”

“…89,93,94,98,107,112 Additionally, studies indicated that those who possessed no formal education, and were unemployed, were highly sedentary and the least active. 95,99 Studies included in the review 91,93,96,97,101,112 identified that a higher prevalence of SB, and/or physical inactivity, was due to an ongoing transition from an agricultural to an industrial-based economy, and technological advancement at work, transport and in the domestic environment. Table 6 (Appendix A) also summarises the findings for those studies that reported occupational PA, SB and associations with disease-related outcomes.…”

Physical activity and sedentary behaviour in occupational groups from Papua New Guinea: Self-reported patterns and correlates

Karthikeyan¹

Background Rapid economic growth and urbanisation in developing countries has led to changes in lifestyle behaviours and contributed to the risk of developing non-communicable diseases such as heart conditions, type 2 diabetes, obesity and cancer. Decreases in occupational physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) are of particular concern. Whereas the evidence base for PA and SB in workers from developed countries is extensive, fewer studies have investigated PA and SB issues in occupational groups from developing countries such as Papua New Guinea (PNG), in the Pacific region currently experiencing major economic change. Aims To contribute insights for health promotion action, the aims of this thesis are to measure and compare the patterns and correlates of self-reported PA and SB in different occupational groups from PNG. The aims are addressed by a detailed review of evidence in developing countries, progressing to the main thesis study on PA, SB, and sociodemographic factors associated with these behaviours in groups of office, blue-collar and retail workers.
