Resumen

Justificación: Los conductores profesionales pueden tener mayor riesgo de cáncer por sus características personales y laborales.
Objetivo: Determinar, en este colectivo, el riesgo de cáncer por incumplir el Código Europeo contra el Cáncer.
Metodología: Estudio descriptivo de conductores profesionales de Asturias (España) mediante cuestionario anónimo y validado. Análisis multivariantes permitieron encontrar las variables relacionadas con mayor puntuación en un indicador sintético del riesgo conductual total (RCT).
Resultados principales: Contestaron 202 conductores (66,8% de autobús y 33,2% camioneros). Las conductas de riesgo más prevalentes fueron no consumir 5 servicios de frutas y verduras (93,3%) y pesar en exceso (72,3%). Las variables asociadas con el RCT fueron: tener más de 50 años (OR: 13,0), ser camionero (OR: 10,2), tener máxima autoeficacia (OR: 0,2) y estar casado o tener pareja (OR: 0,3).

Abstract (Cancer risk behaviours in professional drivers)

Background. Professional drivers may have increased cancer risk because of their personal and occupational characteristics.
Objective: To determine, in this group, cancer risk due to breaking the guidelines of the European code Against Cancer.
Methods: Cross-sectional study of professional drivers in Asturias (Spain), using an anonymous and validated questionnaire. Multivariate analysis allowed to find variables related to higher scores on a synthetic indicator of total cancer behavioural risk (TCBR).
Results: A total of 202 drivers responded (66.8% truckers and 33.2% bus drivers); mostly male (87.6%), married (66.7%) and with secondary education completed (56.4%). The most prevalent risk behaviours were consuming less than 5 servings of fruits and vegetables (93.3%) and excess of weight (72.3%). Variables significantly associated with TCBR score were: being older than 50 years (OR: 13.0), being a trucker (OR: 10.2), having high self-efficacy (OR: 0.2) and being married (OR: 0.3).
Conclusions: To design and to implement programs focussed on the compliance improvement of cancer preventive advices related to diet remains a priority action
