Objective To investigate the dietary behaviors of physical examination population,
and to explore the correlations between dietary behaviors and body mass index
(BMI), diabetes, and hypertension. Methods A cross-sectional survey on the physical examination population were
carried out in The 73rd Army Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army
from March to May 2021. The Eating Behavior Evaluation Scale (EBES) for adults
was used to investigate the dietary behaviors. The total score and the scores
of each dimension of EBES were compared between different BMI groups, diabetic
and non-diabetic groups, hypertensive and non- hypertensive groups. One-way
ANOVA was used for inter-group comparison of the measurement data, LSD method
was used for pairwise comparison, and independent sample t test was used for comparison between groups. Pearson correlation
analysis was used to analyze the correlation between EBES score and BMI, and
Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations between EBES
score and diabetes and hypertension. Results A total of 335 physical examination populations were included in the
final analysis, including 187 males and 148 females, 38 cases (11.34%) of low
body weight, 221 cases (65.97%) of normal body weight, 55 cases (16.42%) of pre-obesity,
and 21 cases (62.69%) of obesity, 37 cases of diabetes (11.05%), and 44 cases
of hypertension (13.13%). The total score and scores of snacks, healthy eating
concepts, convenience, taste preferences, eating rule, emotional impact, eating
speed, and eating habit dimension of EBES in the normal body weight group were
higher than those in the pre-obesity group and obesity group, with
statistically significant differences (all P<0.001).
The total score and scores of healthy eating concepts, convenience, emotional
impact, eating speed, and eating habit dimension of EBES in the diabetic group
were lower than those in the non-diabetic group, with statistically significant
differences (all P<0.05). The
total score and scores of healthy eating concepts, eating rule, emotional
impact, eating speed, and eating habit dimension of EBES in the hypertensive
group were lower than those in the non-hypertensive group, with statistically
significant differences (all P<0.05).
BMI was negatively correlated with the scores of snacks, healthy eating
concepts, convenience, taste preferences, eating rule, emotional impact, eating
speed, and eating habit dimension and total score of EBES (r=-0.298, -0.235, -0.274, -0.262, -0.158, -0.180, -0.217, -0.271,
-0.352; all P<0.05); diabetes was
negatively correlated with the scores of healthy eating concepts, convenience,
emotional impact, eating speed, and eating habit dimension and total score of
EBES (r=-0.281, -0.158, -0.149,
-0.270, -0.232, -0.131; all P<0.05);
hypertension was negatively correlated with the scores of healthy eating
concepts, eating rule, emotional impact, eating speed, and eating habit
dimension and total score of EBES (r=-0.307,
-0.114, -0.122, -0.273, -0.207, -0.137; all P<0.05). Conclusions BMI, diabetes, and
hypertension are negatively correlated with the scores of relevant dimensions
and total score of EBES. Physical examination populations with obesity,
diabetes, and hypertension have different types of unhealthy dietary behaviors.
