Effects of Different Intensity of Work Physical Activity on Sleep Disorder in Patients with Cholesterol

BackgroundHigh cholesterol level is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. We believe that it is important to improve sleep disorders in patients with hyperlipidemia by exploring the effects of different intensities of physical activity on patients with hyperlipidemia. ObjectiveThe purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between sleep disorder and different intensity of work physical activity in patients with high cholesterol. Method and MaterialsThis study used a randomly selected American population from the National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHANES) from 2017 to 2018 as the survey sample, consisting of 1515 individuals (770 males and 745 females, with an average age of 60.53 {+/-} 14.232 years). The Categorical variable uses the Chi-squared test, and the measurement variable uses the rank sum test to calculate the test statistics, which is considered statistically significant (two-sided test) with P<0.05. After single factor analysis, we take physical activity at work as independent variable, take statistically significant variables in Demography (gender, race, marital status, income poverty ratio, physical activity, current health status) as covariates, and take sleep disorder as dependent variable to conduct binary logistic regression analysis. ResultsAfter excluding all the confounding factors, there was a significant correlation between work physical activity and sleep disorder (P<0.001), and the OR was 1.251 (95% Cl: 1.096-1.429). ConclusionPhysical activity at work is a risk factor for sleep disorder in patients with high cholesterol, and the increased risk of sleep disorder caused by intense physical activity at work is particularly obvious.
