N2  - Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is currently an important issue in the  medical industry. However, data on HRQOL in commercial airline pilots are lacking. This study aimed to investigate HRQOL and its related factors in a sample of  commercial pilots. A purposive sample of 373 participants was recruited from a  Chinese Commercial Airline. The median (IQR) score for physical health,  psychological health and social relationship were 64.3 (75-53.6), 62.5 (70.8-54.2)  and 75 (75-58.3), respectively. The mean (SD) score for Environment was 62.2 (16). After controlling for demographics, the multiple linear regression analyses showed  that physical activity, fruit intake and vegetable intake were positively correlated  with HRQOL score (p < .05), while time-zone flights, smoking, alcohol drinking and  being dyslipidemic showed a negative correlation with HRQOL score (p < .05). Healthcare providers should consider time-zone flights, behavioral factors and  dyslipidemia when planning related health promotion and disease prevention programs  for commercial pilots in the future.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
