Abstract
The objective: was to study the prevalence of risk factors for non-communicable diseases (active and passive smoking, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, eating disorders) in children of the Trans-Baikal Territory.
Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of the reports of the Healthcare Centerof Chita Children's Clinical Medical Center was carried out. The data of 69,137 children and adolescents who applied to the Healthcare Center in the period from 2012 to 2021: before the pandemic (2012-2019) and during the pandemic of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19 (2020-2021) were studied. The data obtained were processed using the software package "STATISTICA-10", Microsoft Excel 2010.
Results. The prevalence of passive and active smoking over 10 years was 35,2%, alcohol consumption – 2,75%, physical inactivity – 12,38%, eating disorders – 35,9%. During the pandemic, there was a decrease in the prevalence of smoking (р<0,0001) and eating disorders (р<0,0001). At the same time, an increase in the prevalence of inactivity (р<0,0001), alcohol consumption (р<0,0001) was revealed.
Alcohol consumption by adolescents increased from 1,9% in the period 2012-2019 to 6% in 2020-2021 (р<0,0001). In 2020-2021 inactivity was detected in 15,6% of children, exceeding the before pandemic index (11,6%, р<0,0001). In dynamics a decrease in eating disorders was recorded from 38,1% to 26,4% (р<0,0001).
Conclusion. During the period of restrictive measures related to the new coronavirus infection COVID-19, a decrease in the prevalence of smoking and eating disorders was noted among children and adolescents of the Trans-Baikal Territory. At the same time, an increase in the prevalence of physical inactivity and alcohol consumption was revealed. The data obtained make it necessary to carry out measures to promote a healthy lifestyle both in families and in educational institutions.
