Abstract:

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY

To estimate the prevalence of behavioral risk factors (RF) in Russia using the adapted STEPS methodology among men and women over 18 years old.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

Examined representative samples from 22 regions of Russia in 2018—2019. Response rate was 70%. The adapted STEPS methodology was used, including a single questionnaire, physical examination (height, body weight, waist circumference). We studied such RFs of chronic non-infectious diseases (CNIDs) as physical inactivity (NPA), insufficient intake of vegetables and fruits, excessive salt intake, smoking, excessive alcohol intake, overweight and obesity.

RESULTS

The prevalence of smoking was 34.7% among men and 9.3% for women, the use of electronic cigarettes — 1.1% and 0.5%, respectively. Among those who consume alcohol, 8.8% of men and 7.2% of women drank it in harmful quantities, in terms of the entire population — 3.6% of men and 2.2% of women. NFA was detected in 25.3% of men and 28.2% of women, excessive salt intake — in 32.3 and 25.8%, insufficient consumption of vegetables and fruits — in 76.9 and 72.8%, overweight — in 43, 0 and 32.0%, obesity — in 17.1 and 25.3%, respectively.

SUMMARY

Studies investigating the prevalence of RF are necessary to assess the health status, the frequency of CNIDs in individual regions and in the country as a whole. Knowledge of the regional profile of RF allows for targeted development of preventive programs taking into account the identified features and assessing their effectiveness, identifying target groups with an unfavorable risk profile for the implementation of population prevention measures.
