英文文献摘要:
The objective of this study is to estimate how differences in diet quality, physical activity, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption and bodyweight correlate with whether or not an individual has been diagnosed with diabetes, and whether or not an individual uses medication to manage his or her health condition. Knowing if and how individuals choose to substitute medication for adopting a better diet or a healthier lifestyle provides insight into the welfare effects of changing access to prescribed medication and other proposed interventions to improve diet and health. Knowing how behaviors correlate with socio-economic characteristics also sheds light on ways to improve the efficacy of public health education.
本研究的目的是评估饮食质量、体育活动、吸烟、饮酒和体重的差异与一个人是否被诊断为糖尿病,以及一个人是否使用药物来管理他或她的健康状况。了解个人是否和如何选择用药物替代采用更好的饮食或更健康的生活方式,可以洞察改变获得处方药物和其他拟议干预措施以改善饮食和健康的福利效应。了解行为如何与社会经济特征相关联,也有助于了解如何提高公共卫生教育的效果。
