Introduction: World Health Organization information shows that a sedentary lifestyle is one of the ten major causes of death and disability. Therefore this study aimed research the role of physical activity and occupational status on blood factors, fat profile, and liver enzymes
Materials and Methods: This study was of a causal-comparative type. Ninety four workers of operational and non-operational positions of tile factories who had the conditions to participate in the study were selected based on the available sampling method and voluntarily. By examining Beck's questionnaires, the participants were divided into active and inactive groups. Among the participants, 44 people formed as active group (20 operational and 24 non-operational) and 50 as inactive group (27 operational and 23 non-operational). After 12 hours of fasting, ten milliliters of venous blood were collected from the workers to investigate the biochemical variables of blood factors, fat profile, and liver enzymes performed in the medical laboratory of Meibod city. In this research, a one-way analysis of the variance model and Tukey's post hoc test were used to analyze the data and analyzed through SPSS23 software.
Results: The current research showed that the difference in mean cholesterol, triglyceride, hematocrit, and ALP was significant among the active, inactive, operative, and non-operative groups. The results showed that there was a decrease in cholesterol, triglyceride, hematocrit, and ALP in the active group compared to the inactive, operative, and non-operative groups, and these changes were significant.
Conclusion: According to the research results, physical activity can affect variables, and job position (operational and non-operational) cannot affect fat profile, blood factors, and liver enzymes.
