Abstract

Sedentary behavior and lack of physical exercise are one of the strongest risk factors for many chronic diseases and conditions, including cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, colon cancer, and depression. Hence, the aim of this study was to assess the combined and relative effect of socio-demographic characteristics and physical exercise (PE) training on the cardiovascular health of freshmen of Babcock University, Ilishan-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria. The study was a quasi-experimental study that employed both qualitative and quantitative methods of data collection. An all-inclusive sampling method was used to select all 72 volunteers for a pre-exercise medical evaluation, and questionnaires were administered to 600 volunteers for pre and post-data. The respondents were treated with a six-week dose of regular daily selected physical activities. The post-test was conducted, recorded, and subjected to statistical analysis using inferential statistics. The mean age was 18±1.89 with the age of 17 forming the largest group, i.e., 218 (36.3%). Females, 379(65.2%), were slightly more than their male counterparts, 221 (36.8%). The results of pre-exercise showed that some, 9 (12.2%), had normal body temperature. The respondents who were obese and over-weighted were 25 (33.8) and 20 (27.1), and respondents with high mean arterial pressure were 15 (20.3), respectively. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) of the respondents tested showed no significant difference (P>0.05) between the mean age, sex and marital status with respect to the blood sugar level, body temperature and the body mass index. MAP and irregular participation in physical activities were significant (P<0.05) among this group of students. The knowledge mean score (KMS) of 19.37±6.035 was high compared to a 27-point scale. There was no significant relationship between df=2, F=1.566 and P>0.005. Some, 160 (26.7%), had excellent overall physical health, and 173 (28.8%) had good overall physical health. There were significant interactional effects (F= 59.276, mean score within group 1.60, df 2, p = .000, R = -282) between groups and time for perceived benefits, interpersonal norms, social support, counter heart conditioning, stimulus control, and overall time spent on being physically active per week. In conclusion, a correlation was observed between the predictive factors and cardiovascular diseases; it was recommended that all students should be encouraged to engage in regular PE at a level appropriate to their capacities, needs, and interests to maintain optimal cardiovascular health status.

社会人口因素和体育锻炼对心血管健康的影响——以尼日利亚奥贡州伊利山-雷莫巴布科克大学新生为例
久坐行为和缺乏体育锻炼是许多慢性疾病和病症的最大危险因素之一,包括心血管疾病、高血压、糖尿病、肥胖、骨质疏松症、结肠癌和抑郁症。因此,本研究的目的是评估社会人口学特征和体育锻炼(PE)训练对尼日利亚奥根州Ilishan-Remo巴布科克大学新生心血管健康的综合和相对影响。本研究为准实验研究,采用定性和定量两种数据收集方法。采用全包抽样方法对72名志愿者进行运动前医学评估,并对600名志愿者进行问卷调查,获取运动前和运动后的数据。受访者接受了为期六周的定期选择的日常体育活动治疗。进行后测,记录,并使用推理统计进行统计分析。平均年龄为18±1.89岁,其中17岁最多,218人(36.3%)。女性379人(65.2%)略高于男性221人(36.8%)。运动前结果显示,9人(12.2%)体温正常。肥胖25例(33.8例),超重20例(27.1例),平均动脉压高15例(20.3例)。被测者的平均动脉压(MAP)在平均年龄、性别、婚姻状况、血糖水平、体温和体重指数方面无显著差异(P>0.05)。MAP与不规律参加体育活动差异有统计学意义(P0.005)。160人(26.7%)整体身体健康状况良好,173人(28.8%)整体身体健康状况良好。组与感知利益、人际规范、社会支持、反心脏调节、刺激控制和每周总的体育活动时间之间存在显著的相互作用效应(F= 59.276,组内平均得分1.60,df 2, p = 0.000, R = -282)。综上所述,预测因素与心血管疾病存在相关性;建议应鼓励所有学生定期参加适合其能力、需求和兴趣的体育锻炼,以保持最佳的心血管健康状态。
