Abstract

The aim was to assess epidemiological characteristics of the most recent consumption patterns of meat, vegetable, and fruit among representative urban and rural residents aged 60+ years in regional China. In this cross-sectional survey conducted in mid-2018, participants aged 60+ years were randomly chosen from urban and rural communities in Nanjing municipality of China. Meat, vegetable, and fruit intake were assessed with a validated food frequency questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression models were applied to compute odds ratio (OR) and 95 % confidence interval (CI) to investigate the association of socio-demographic characteristics with a likelihood of meeting intake recommendation. Among the 20 867 participants, 49⋅5 % were men and 45⋅0 % urban elders, and 6⋅5 % aged 80+ years. The mean values of consumption frequency of red meat, white meat, vegetable, and fruit were 2⋅99 ± 2⋅28, 1⋅37 ± 1⋅13, 5⋅24 ± 6⋅43, and 2⋅64 ± 2⋅91 times/week, respectively, among overall participants. Moreover, there were 14⋅9, 23⋅7, and 12⋅1 % of participants meeting intake recommendations of meat, vegetable, and fruit, separately, in this study. After adjustment for potential confounders, age, gender, residence area, and educational attainment each was associated with the likelihood of meeting intake recommendation of meat, vegetable, or fruit. The consumption frequency and proportion of participants meeting intake recommendations of meat, vegetable, or fruit were not high among elders in regional China. Socio-demographic characteristics were associated with intake recommendations of meat, vegetables, and fruit. It has public health implications that participants' socio-demographic attributes shall be considered for precision intervention on meat, vegetable, and fruit consumption in healthy eating campaigns among elders in China.

中国地区 60 岁以上城市和农村老年人的肉类、蔬菜和水果消费量:一项人群营养研究。
目的是评估中国地区具有代表性的60岁以上城乡居民肉类、蔬菜和水果最新消费模式的流行病学特征。这项横断面调查于 2018 年年中进行,参与者从中国南京市的城市和农村社区中随机抽取,年龄在 60 岁以上。通过有效的食物频率问卷评估了肉类、蔬菜和水果的摄入量。采用多变量逻辑回归模型计算几率比(OR)和 95 % 置信区间(CI),以研究社会人口特征与达到推荐摄入量的可能性之间的关系。在20 867名参与者中,49.5%为男性,45.0%为城市长者,6.5%为80岁以上长者。所有参与者每周食用红肉、白肉、蔬菜和水果的次数平均值分别为 2⋅99 ± 2⋅28 次、1⋅37 ± 1⋅13 次、5⋅24 ± 6⋅43 次和 2⋅64 ± 2⋅91 次。此外,本研究中分别有 14⋅9% 、23⋅7% 和 12⋅1% 的参与者达到了肉类、蔬菜和水果的建议摄入量。在对潜在的混杂因素进行调整后,年龄、性别、居住地区和教育程度分别与达到肉类、蔬菜或水果摄入量建议的可能性相关。在中国地区的老年人中,达到肉类、蔬菜或水果建议摄入量的食用频率和比例并不高。社会人口特征与肉类、蔬菜和水果的摄入推荐量有关。在中国老年人健康饮食活动中对肉类、蔬菜和水果的摄入进行精准干预时,应考虑参与者的社会人口学特征,这对公共卫生具有重要意义。
