ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To compare relationships between self-perceived weight and self-rated health (SRH) between cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors.METHODS:
A cross-sectional study based on the 2014-2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was conducted for the associations of self-perceived weight status, measured BMI categories, and combined categories by self-perceived weight and measured BMI with SRH in 1622 cancer survivors and 29,903 non-cancer survivors using complex samples ordinal regression analysis after adjusting for sociodemographic factors, health behaviors, and concurrent diseases.RESULTS:
Compared to the comparison group (those who were normal weight and self-perceived as average weight in non-cancer survivors), adjusted odds for poorer SRH were higher in cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors who were underweight and self-perceived as underweight (adjusted odds ratios[aORs], 2.69 for non-cancer survivors; 2.62 for cancer survivors), those who were normal weight but self-perceived as underweight or overweight (aORs, 1.69-2.38 for non-cancer survivors; 2.34-3.78 for cancer survivors), and those who were overweight and self-perceived as overweight (aORs, 1.52 for non-cancer survivors; 2.42 for cancer survivors). In cancer survivors, the odds for poorer SRH were greater for those who were normal weight and self-perceived as average weight (aOR = 1.84), whereas the odds were not significant for those who were underweight or overweight and self-perceived as average weight. In non-cancer survivors who self-perceived as average weight, the odds for poorer SRH were significant in those with underweight (aOR = 1.35) or overweight (aOR = 0.84).CONCLUSION:
According to actual weight status, the association between self-perceived weight and SRH may differ between cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors.Palabras clave
