Abstract

Theory/framework: HL is a major public health challenge and its prevention requires understanding of its determinants.
Methods and hypotheses: Multiple logistic regression modelling (n=8,529, aged 50-89), examining the association of HL with non-modifiable (age, gender), partly modifiable (socioeconomic indicators), and fully modifiable lifestyle risk factors (body mass index, physical activity, smoking and alcohol consumption).
Results: Socioeconomic and lifestyle risk factors were largely associated with HL, while age was not the most important risk factor.
Conclusion: HL may be a potential preventable lifestyle disease and not necessarily an inevitable accompaniment of ageing, paving the way for interventions to improve population’s health.
