The Association Between Long Working Hours of Parents and Dyslipidemia in Their Children.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of our study is to examine the association between children's low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and their parents' working hours. We used data from the 2010-2018 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in which lipid profile samples of 3,799 children were eligible. Logistic regression analyses were used with an outcome variable of the dichotomous LDL-C group and an exposure variable of the father's and mother's working hours, respectively. In logistic regression models adjusted for age, sex, household income, education level of children and parents, and working hours of the parents, mothers' working hours more than 52 h per week were significantly associated with their children's dyslipidemia [OR 2.14, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.33-3.47] comp
