Abstract

Introduction: The inappropriate lifestyle (IL) increases the risk of non-communicable diseases; undergraduate university students are a susceptible population to present an IL. Objectives: To determine if age, sex, marital status, work activity, family responsibilities, study cycle and place of residence were factors associated with an inappropriate lifestyle (IL) in medical students. Secondarily, the dimensions most frequently associated with IL were identified. Methods: A cross-sectional, and analytical study was carried out on students from the School of Human Medicine of the Antenor Orrego Private University of Trujillo in Peru, during the first semester of 2023, using the FANTASTICO anonymous survey, an instrument that has 10 dimensions. Surveys that were not answered in their entirety were excluded. The prevalence of predetermined risk factors was compared between students with IALS and those with an adequate lifestyle, using the chi-square test and the prevalence ratio; we were considered significant if p < 0.05. Results: Of the 258 participating students, 112 (43.4%) showed IL. No statistical association was found between the proposed factors and the IL in the students. The 4 prevalent dimensions in the IL were: health control, sleep and stress, introspection, and physical activity. Conclusion: Age, sex, marital status, work activity, having a family responsibility, the study cycle, the place of residence and the study cycle were not factors associated with IL in medical students.
