Pontos de venda de alimentos e associação com sobrepeso/obesidade em escolares de Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brasil

Abstract

O estudo descreve os pontos de venda de alimentos e sua associação com sobrepeso/obesidade em escolares de Florianópolis, Santa Catarina, Brasil. Desenho transversal com amostra probabilística de 2.506 escolares de escolas públicas (n = 19) e privadas (n = 11). O sobrepeso/obesidade foi classificado pela referência da Organização Mundial da Saúde de 2007. Foram realizadas análises brutas e ajustadas por meio de regressão de Poisson. A prevalência de sobrepeso/obesidade foi de 34,2%. Na rede pública, foram verificados 19,6% de sobrepeso e 13,5% de obesidade. Na rede privada, observaram-se 22,4% de sobrepeso e 11,1% de obesidade. Na rede pública, foi encontrada associação entre sobrepeso/obesidade e utilização da padaria (p = 0,004). Na rede privada, observou-se que os escolares de famílias que utilizaram o supermercado apresentaram 26% menos de sobrepeso/obesidade do que os escolares que não utilizam esses pontos de venda de alimentos (p = 0,003). Os dados encontrados evidenciam a existência de associação entre a utilização de alguns tipos de pontos de venda de alimentos (supermercado e padaria) e a prevalência de sobrepeso/obesidade na população escolar.

Association between screen time and dietary patterns and overweight/obesity among adolescents

“…This study is part of a wider research project funded by the Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico analysing the tendency and prevalence of obesity and associated factors among school children (7 to 14 year olds) in Florianópolis. More detailed information about the project is described elsewhere [14]. In this study, a cross-sectional analysis with a probabilistic school-based sample of 11-14-year-old adolescents from public and private schools in Florianópolis was performed.…”

Geographic and socioeconomic distribution of food vendors: a case study of a municipality in the Southern Brazil

“…Yet, a study conducted in Florianópolis with families of students aged 7 to 14 years found that 96.4% of the families purchased food in supermarkets 4 . Ease of payment is a possible justification for nearly everyone to shop at supermarkets, since supermarkets accept credit cards and food stamps.…”

“…Ease of payment is a possible justification for nearly everyone to shop at supermarkets, since supermarkets accept credit cards and food stamps. Furthermore, because supermarkets offer delivery services 4 , they are more likely to attract families who do not have automobiles.…”

Body mass index and association with use of and distance from places for physical activity and active leisure among schoolchildren in Brazil. Cross-sectional study

“…1 Similar trends were observed in Florianópolis, capital of the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina, during the period from 2002 to 2007, among 7 to 10-year-old children, 2 and from 2007 to 2012, among 7 to 14-year-old children and adolescents. 3 In addition, in 2007 and 2008, the prevalence of abdominal obesity among 6 to 10-year-old schoolchildren in the state of Santa Catarina was observed to be 4.9%. 4 Studies have shown that the availability of places for physical activity and active leisure (PAAL) close to home makes it more likely that these facilities will be used more often, because of ease of access.…”
