Lifestyle-associated risk factors affecting young people

OS Aminova

Abstract: The lack of a well-defined healthy lifestyle culture adopted by young people is one of the reasons behind them developing chronic non-communicable diseases. The review summarizes the results of a number of scientific investigations of the relationship between behavioral risk factors and health indicators as registered in the working and studying youth; we present the values reflecting the relative link between onset of chronic diseases and alcohol consumption, smoking, low physical activity, sleep disturbance,… Show more

BACKGROUND: The incidence of illness among students has always been a pressing problem, despite the development of prevention programs. In 2015–2020, there was an increase in incidence among adolescents, most of whom are now students at various universities in our country. Unfortunately, recently, insufficient attention has been paid to educational work and hygienic education in school institutions and educational organizations of the higher education system. AIMS: To study the incidence of medical university students during their studies and the significance of various factors in their lifestyle that affect the health of students. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A one-time sample study of medical students from the medical and pediatric faculties was conducted, in which respondents from the first to sixth years of study took part. A mandatory criterion was that the participant was 18 years of age or older, and before the study, everyone signed a voluntary informed consent to participate. RESULTS: 1050 students took part in this study, of which 810 were girls and 240 boys, respectively. The average age of the participants was 20.5±2.3 years. 59% of males who had body mass index (BMI) values within the normal range (18.5-24.9 kg/m2) did not have a single chronic disease in their history; in girls, the incidence increased with increasing BMI. CONCLUSIONS: Medical school students did not differ significantly from the youth cohort. The incidence rate of respondents, especially in the senior year of study, increased significantly.

It is difficult to overestimate the relevance of the study of the actual nutrition of students of higher education institutions, as nutrition is the most important component of healthy lifestyle. The aim of the study was to perform hygienic assessment of the medical university students’ daily dietary intake. The study involved 1200 students of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years at the department of general medicine, pediatric department and dental department. The method of studying actual nutrition with the help of an electronic food diary, where the subjects entered information about the foods consumed during the day, was chosen to record actual nutrition facts. Data processing showed that the daily nutritional intake of students at all the studied faculties was characterized by reduced caloric content, reduced intake of nutritional substances, lack of systematization of meals and eating mainly in the evening. Thus, hygienic assessment of the medical students’ daily dietary intake revealed shortcomings in the organization of nutrition of this population group, which should be eliminated in order to preserve and improve the health of future specialists. In subsequent studies, one would need to assess the nutrition of different gender groups in order to trace the emerging nutritional stereotypes in groups of young men and women, taking into account the differences in age and the chosen specialty.
