초록

The prevalence rate of diabetes and pre-diabetes in adults aged 19 or older in Korea is steadily increasing, with 23.3% young people being identified as pre-diabetic. This study was therefore undertaken to determine a lifestyle improvement plan and help prevent prevent impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in young adults aged 20-30 years, by identifying the association between IFG and physical activity, frequency of consuming beverages and alcohol intake. Data was procured from the 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES), and analyzed using the SPSS program. Results indicate that the incidence of IFG in adults aged 20-30 was 8.3% for women and 16.7% for men. Irrespective of gender, subjects in the normal group were of a significantly lower age, and had significantly lower weight, waist circumference, BMI, and abdominal obesity rates as compared to subjects with IFG. In addition, the normal group had significantly higher aerobic physical activity and relative grip strength than the IFG group. No difference was obtained for frequency of beverage consumption, but the frequency of alcohol intake was determined to be higher in the male group with IFG. Abdominal obesity (odd ratio (OR)=2.616, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.904-3.594 in men; OR=4.035, 95% CI=2.718-5.991 in women) and obesity index (OR=1.86, 95% CI=1.537-2.251 in men; OR=2.033, 95% CI=1.669-2.476 in women) was positively associated with an increased risk for the prevalence for IFG. Moreover, a higher frequency of soju intake was associated with a greater risk of IFG in men (OR=1.224, 95% CI=1.077-1.391). Therefore, in order to prevent IFG in adults in their 20-30s, we recommend physical activities to manage weight and improve muscle strength, and refrain from frequent drinking.
