“…Another aspect that that should be mentioned is that men presented higher chances of do not identify themselves as obese when compared to women. A study conducted in Brazilian Northeast region verified that men were more satisfied with their body image when compared to women, even when they were overweight 28 . The hypothesis to these findings is related to cultural and aesthetics aspects, which affect mostly women in a search for a normality standard considered acceptable by society 29 .…”

-The acceptance of the disease is essential to health self-care, elder's awareness regarding obesity is suggested to influence their search for health services, and consequently, in obesity's treatment. This study aimed to verify obesity awareness of elders living in rural areas and associated socioeconomic and demographic factors. We conducted a cross-sectional household survey with 562 individuals, who were older than 60 years and were rural residents from a Brazil southeast city. The identification of obesity awareness was consisted in the agreement between the self-referred obesity and the diagnosis criteria using the body-mass index >27Kg/m². The associated socioeconomic and demographic factors were: gender, age range, marital status, education and income. Descriptive statistical analysis, Kappa index and logistic regression (p <0.05) were conducted. The highest percentage of elders were men (53.6%), 60├ 70 years old (62.6%), married (67.8%), studied for 4|-8 years (40.0%) and with an individual monthly income of one minimal wage (45.7%). The prevalence of obesity according to the body-mass index was 34.7% and the self-referred 15.1%, which was classified as regular agreement by the Kappa coefficient (k= 0.232; p<0.001). The majority of the elders with obesity were not aware of this condition (64.6%), with higher odds ratio for men than for women (OR=2.34; CI=1.29-4.77). We found high obesity prevalence among elders residents in the rural area, who did not recognize themselves with this condition. Moreover, elderly men presented lower obesity awareness than women.Key words: Body-mass index; Diagnosis; Elder; Obesity.

Imagem corporal em idosos do Brasil: uma revisão sistemática

A insatisfação com a imagem corporal tem sido alvo de muitos estudos conduzidos no Brasil, porém, em relação aos idosos a disponibilidade de estudos parece limitada. Esse estudo objetivou sintetizar as evidências disponíveis na literatura acerca dos estudos sobre a imagem corporal de idosos brasileiros. Para isso, foram conduzidas buscas sistemáticas nas bases de dados Literatura Latino-americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO). Foram adotados os critérios de inclusão: artigos científicos publicados nos últimos 10 anos (2008 a 2018), com amostras cujos idosos possuíam 60 anos ou mais. A busca inicial resultou em 141 manuscritos e ao final da revisão 11 artigos foram incluídos. Observou-se que os estudos conduzidos até o presente momento provêm informações apenas de idosos das regiões Sul, Sudeste e Nordeste. O tamanho das amostras variou de oito a 806 idosos, sendo a insatisfação com a imagem corporal avaliada, predominantemente, por meio de escalas de silhuetas demostrando prevalências elevadas de insatisfação. Diante da endogenia observada nos achados, mais estudos são necessários no Brasil, sobretudo, com amostras maiores e que envolvam idosos das regiões Centro-Oeste e Norte.

Objective: to determine the prevalence of body image satisfaction in elderly subjects, as well as its relationship with nutritional status, anthropometric indicators and quality of life. Method: a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical study was carried out with elderly individuals from Primary Care units (Family Health Strategy) from all the health districts of Porto Alegre, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The variables studied were: sociodemographic (gender; age; marital status and schooling), anthropometric (weight; height; body mass index; arm, calf, waist and hip circumference; waist-hip ratio and triceps skinfold), nutritional (Mini Nutritional Assessment), and clinical (quality of life; body image satisfaction). The Stunkard Silhouettes Scale, the Mini Nutritional Assessment and the Flanagan quality of life scale were applied. For data analysis, logistic regression (five steps) was performed with the Conditional Backward method. Results: a total of 532 elderly users (68.96 (7.14) years) were evaluated, mostly women (64.8%) who were dissatisfied with their body image (71.7%). The predictors of body image satisfaction were: eutrophic/underweight body mass index, eutrophy/insufficient arm circumference, and higher mean quality of life scores. Conclusion: in general, a low prevalence of body image satisfaction was identified among the elderly. Subjects with lower body mass index, smaller arm circumference measures and better quality of life had a greater chance of being satisfied with their body image.
