Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence and co-prevalence of tobacco use, excessive alcohol use, insufficient intake of vegetable and fruit, physical inactivity, and overweight or obesity in floating population and influencing factors in China, 2012. Methods: Data from the 2012 China Chronic Disease Risk Factor Survey in Floating Population in China were used. In this survey, 48 704 people aged 18-59 years in floating population were selected through stratified multistage clustering sampling in 170 counties and districts from 31 province (autonomous regions and municipalities) and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. The gender specific prevalence and co-prevalence of five risk factors were estimated, and the rank sum test was used for result comparison. Results: Among the people surveyed, 27.4% had one risk factor, 37.1% had two risk factors, 28.5% had ≥3 risk factors. The prevalence or co-prevalence of risk factors were positively correlated with age (P<0.05), income level (P<0.05) and migration time (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with educational level (P<0.05). People who were males, in Han ethnic group, engaged in construction and from other provinces were more likely to have more risk factors (P<0.05). Conclusion: The prevalence and co-prevalence of tobacco use, excessive alcohol use, insufficient intake of vegetable and fruit, physical inactivity and overweight or obesity were high in floating population in China, suggesting that it is necessary to strengthen the comprehensive behavior intervention in floating population.
