An investigation of association between chronic musculoskeletal pain and cardiovascular disease in the Health Survey for England (2008)

摘要: Background Chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) may be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). This study aimed to investigate the association between CMP and CVD, contribution of physical activity sedentary behaviour any association. Methods We performed a secondary analysis 3332 middle-aged (45–64 years) 2022 older (65+ adults included in Health Survey for England (2008). The survey contained self-reported activity/sedentary data. Objectively measured using accelerometry (Actigraph™) was also available subset (n = 715) (n = 492) participants. Logistic regression examined CVD adjusted objectively activity, range other risk factors. Results There higher prevalence those both (22.5% vs. 13.5%) (46.8% 28.2%) (p < 0.001). After adjusting factors, were significantly more likely have {odds ratio [95% confidence interval (CI)] 1.828 (1.452, 2.300); p < 0.001}. A similar non-significant trend shown [odds (95% CI) 1.271 (0.975, 1.656); p = 0.076]. Neither nor (or behaviour) had meaningful effect on CVD. Conclusions CMP is an increased stronger adults. contributed this relationship. Longitudinal studies are warranted better understand relationship CMP.
