摘要

目的：提高体育锻炼（PA）和与健康相关的生活质量（HRQoL）对于实现与健康相关的可持续发展目标（SDG 3）至关重要。然而，在中低收入国家（LMICs），有关体育锻炼与 HRQoL（尤其是单亲父母的 HRQoL）之间关系的数据非常有限。我们研究了加纳单亲家庭中 PA 与 HRQoL 之间的关系，并探讨了性别、年龄和空间差异在这种关系中的调节作用：方法：通过多阶段分层抽样技术获得了 627 名单亲父母的数据。采用国际体力活动问卷-简表（IPAQ-SF）对体力活动进行评估。EQ-5D-3L 问卷用于测量 HRQoL。分层普通最小二乘法（OLS）回归模型评估了假设的关联：结果：即使考虑了所有潜在的混杂因素（B = -0.298，SE = 0.132，p B = -0.619，SE = 0.206，p B = -0.062，SE = 0.008，p 结论：体育锻炼与 HRQoL 差异很大：体育锻炼与不良的 HRQoL 负相关。性别和年龄差异改变了这种关联。促进体育锻炼可减少单亲家庭不良的 HRQoL。

Meeting the WHO physical activity guidelines and health-related quality of life of single parents in Ghana.

Purpose: Improving physical activity (PA) and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is critically important for achieving the health-related sustainable development goal (SDG 3). However, data on the association between PA and HRQoL, particularly among single parents, are limited in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). We examine the association between PA and HRQoL among single parents in Ghana and explore the modifying roles of sex, age, and spatial differences in this association.

Methods: Data on 627 single parents were obtained through a multi-stage stratified sampling technique. PA was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF). The EQ-5D-3L questionnaire was used to measure HRQoL. A hierarchical Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression models evaluated the hypothesized associations.

Results: PA was significantly associated with poor HRQoL even after accounting for all potential confounders (B = -0.298, SE = 0.132, p < 0.05). The association was further modified by sex (B = -0.619, SE = 0.206, p < 0.01) and age (B = -0.062, SE = 0.008, p < 0.001). Thus, the PA-HRQoL association was more pronounced among older and female single parents.

Conclusion: Physical activity was negatively associated with poor HRQoL. Sex and age differences modified the association. Promoting PA may reduce poor HRQoL among single parents.
