Abstract:
|
[eng] Introduction: Cardiometabolic diseases are highly prevalent and have a multifactorial etiology, with socioeconomic factors playing a role in their appearance. The aim of this study was to assess the level of cardiometabolic risk in a large group of hotel reception workers, a group included among non-manual workers. Methods: Descriptive and cross-sectional study carried out in 7962 hotel reception workers from different Spanish regions in which different scales of cardiometabolic risk were assessed, including scales of insulin resistance, scales of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, scales of atherogenic risk, scales of metabolic syndrome, and scales of cardiovascular risk. Results: The highest prevalences of high cardiometabolic risk parameters in this group were found for overweight-obesity scales, atherogenic indices and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease scales. Prevalences are higher in men. Conclusions: The prevalence of high values of the cardiometabolic risk scales in hotel reception workers can be considered moderate, but these data are especially relevant due to the low average age of this group. The variables that most increase cardiometabolic risk in these workers are age, male sex and, to a lesser extent, smoking. |
