Abstract

Purpose

This study aimed to investigate the associations between overall lifestyles and HRQoL, as well as the variations in age, sex, education level, and income.

Methods

A total of 23,402 participants from the Henan rural cohort were included. The healthy lifestyle score (HLS) consists of five lifestyle factors: smoking, alcohol drinking, physical activity, diet, and body mass index. HRQoL was assessed by the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire. The general linear model and Tobit regression model were utilized to assess the associations of HLS with visual analogue score (VAS) and utility index.

Results

Compared with participants with an HLS of 0–2, the corresponding regression coefficients (β) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of participants with an HLS of 3, 4, and 5 for VAS score were 1.09 (0.59, 1.59), 1.92 (1.38, 2.46), and 2.60 (1.83, 3.37); the corresponding β and 95% CI for utility index were 0.02 (0.01, 0.03), 0.05 (0.03, 0.06), and 0.06 (0.04, 0.07). Notably, these positive associations were greater among the elderly, female, and those with lower education level and average monthly income (p for interaction < 0.05). For instance, the corresponding β and 95% CI of individuals with an HLS of 5 for utility index in average monthly income < 500 RMB, 500–999 RMB, and ≥ 1000 RMB groups were 0.08 (0.05, 0.11), 0.06 (0.03, 0.09), and 0.02 (− 0.00, 0.05).

Conclusion

Engaging in healthier lifestyle habits was associated with a higher level of HRQoL, especially in the elderly, females, and those with low education level and average monthly income.
