چکیده

This study was conducted to examine the relationship between urbanization and risk factors of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) according to the World Health Organization stepwise approach to surveillance of NCDs. This study is part of a NCD risk factor surveillance of 10 069 individuals in all provinces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, aged over 20 years, during 2011. By utilizing 2011 census data, urbanization levels were determined in all provinces and logistics regression was used to examine the relationship between urbanization and risk factors. Among males, urbanization had a positive correlation with low physical activity (OR=1.7; 95% CI: 1.42-2.09), low fruit and vegetable consumption (OR=1.8; 95% CI: 1.09-2.96), and high BMI (OR=1.4; 95% CI: 1.20-1.70). Among females there was a positive and significant correlation with low physical activity (OR=1.2; 95% CI: 1.08-1.49), low fruit and vegetable consumption (OR=1.22; 95% CI: 0.78-1.91) and high BMI (OR=1.3; 95% CI: 1.14-1.53). Thus, urbanization has a significant correlation with increases in NCD factors in the Islamic Republic of Iran. Urbanisation et facteurs de risque de maladies non transmissibles (MNT) : approche STEPwise de l’OMS pour la surveillance des facteurs de risque de MNT en République islamique d’Iran en 2011 RÉSUMÉ La présente étude a été menée afin d’examiner la relation entre l’urbanisation et les facteurs de risque de MNT, selon le modèle de l’approche STEPwise de l’OMS pour la surveillance des maladies non transmissibles. L’étude s’inscrit dans la surveillance des facteurs de risque de MNT opérée sur 10 069 personnes âgées de plus de 20 ans dans l’ensemble des provinces de la République islamique d’Iran en 2011. À l’aide de données du recensement de 2011, les niveaux d’urbanisation ont pu être déterminés pour toutes les provinces, et la régression logistique a été utilisée afin d’examiner la relation entre l’urbanisation et les facteurs de risque. Parmi les hommes, l’urbanisation avait une corrélation positive avec une faible activité physique (OR = 1,7, IC à 95 % : 1,42-2,09), une faible consommation de fruits et légumes (OR = 1,8, IC à 95 % : 1,09-2,96) et un indice de masse corporelle élevé (OR = 1,4, IC à 95 % : 1,20-1,70). Parmi les femmes, il existait une corrélation positive et significative avec une faible activité physique (OR = 1,2, IC à 95 % : 1,08-1,49), une faible consommation de fruits et légumes (OR = 1,22, IC à 95 % : 0,78-1,91) et un indice de masse corporelle élevé (OR = 1,3, IC à 95 % : 1,14-1,53). L’urbanisation a donc une corrélation significative avec l’augmentation des facteurs de MNT en République islamique d’Iran. 1Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran (Correspondence to: Koorosh Etemad: [email protected]). 2Endocrine and Metabolic Office; 3Office of Hospital Management and Clinical Service Excellence; 4Diabet es Control and Prevention Program, Center for Noncommunicable Diseases Control, Ministry of Health & Medical Education, Tehran, Islamic Republic of Iran; 5 Department of Epidemiology, Mamasani Higher Education Complex for Health, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Islamic Republic of Iran.
