Research on the “integration of physical activity and medicine” prevention scheme of chronic disease population based on health risk assessment

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Living standards are greatly improved with the economy, but prevalence of chronic diseases is increasing due to unhealthy lifestyles. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to explore the impact of physical medicine comprehensive intervention under health risk assessment on disease management of diabetes high-risk population, and provide evidence for health management of chronic diseases. METHODS: Diabetes risk assessment was conducted among 1,200 examiners in the Health Examination Center of Zhanjiang Central People’s Hospital. 384 cases of diabetes high-risk population were randomly rolled into control group and experimental group equally. Basic data were analyzed and related biochemical indexes were determined. Experimental group received exercise-medicine comprehensive intervention under health risk assessment, while control group received routine intervention. RESULTS: Age, fasting blood glucose, family history of diabetes, blood pressure, smoking, etc. were risk factors for diabetes. Body weight, body mass index (BMI), blood lipid, physical activity, food intake, total cholesterol, etc. of experimental group were significantly changed, and the two-hour blood glucose (2hPG) was significantly different versus control group (P <  0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive physical activity and drug intervention under health risk assessment can effectively reduce the risk of diabetes.
