Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to explore the impact of physical activity on health among older adults in urban and rural areas in Taiwan.

Methods: This study employed a cross-sectional design and data were analyzed from 2015 to 2019 from the Hualien County Health Bureau. Participants were divided into urban (n = 4780) and rural groups (n = 4983), and logistic regression models were employed to examine how physical activity relates to their health condition in urban and rural older adults.

Results: Results indicated lower physical activity levels and higher unhealthy behavior rate in rural older adults compared to their urban counterparts. Rural older adults had higher rates of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes but lower rates of mental illness. Physical activity demonstrated greater physical health benefits for urban older adults than rural older people. Conversely, rural individuals who engaged in physical activity 150 min/week exhibited greater mental health benefits than their urban counterparts.

Conclusions: Physical activity offers significant mental health benefits for both urban and rural older adults; however, notable improvements in physical health among urban older adults was found. If in the presence of unhealthy behaviors, regular physical activity may not effectively prevent chronic diseases. It is crucial to promote physical activity and healthy behaviors in rural areas.

体育活动对城市和农村老年人健康的不同影响。
研究目的本研究旨在探讨体育锻炼对台湾城乡地区老年人健康的影响:本研究采用横断面设计,分析了花莲县卫生局 2015 年至 2019 年的数据。将参与者分为城市组(n = 4780)和农村组(n = 4983),并采用逻辑回归模型研究体育活动与城市和农村老年人健康状况的关系:结果表明,与城市老年人相比,农村老年人的体力活动水平较低,不健康行为率较高。农村老年人患心血管疾病和糖尿病的比例较高,但患精神疾病的比例较低。与农村老年人相比,体育活动对城市老年人的身体健康更有益。相反,与城市老年人相比,每周参加 150 分钟体育活动的农村老年人对心理健康的益处更大:结论:体育锻炼对城市和农村老年人的心理健康都大有裨益,但城市老年人的身体健康明显改善。如果存在不健康的行为,定期进行体育锻炼可能无法有效预防慢性疾病。在农村地区推广体育锻炼和健康行为至关重要。

期刊介绍: Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
