“…Entre os participantes, constatou-se alto índice de sobrepeso e obesidade, contudo, diferentemente da investigação transversal com estudantes de universidades públicas e privadas da cidade São Luís-MA, não houve associação estatística significativa do tabagismo com IMC (p = 0,010) e circunferência abdominal (p = 0,036) (27) . Diante dos resultados apresentados, compreende-se a importância dos profissionais inseridos na ESF identificarem os fatores associados ao tabagismo nos usuários com ênfase em ações preventivas às complicações que dele advém em longo prazo.…”

RESUMO: Objetivou-se identificar fatores associados ao tabagismo em usuários da estratégia saúde da família. Estudo epidemiológico transversal, descritivo e analítico. A amostra por conveniência compreendeu 100 indivíduos usuários de uma Unidade Saúde da Família de um município da região centro sul do Paraná. Houve predomínio das mulheres (n=63; 63%), com média de idade de 49,5 anos, cor branca (n=82; 82%), com ensino fundamental completo (n=21; 21%) e casados (n=49; 49%). O consumo médio diário de cigarro foi de 17,7 cigarros/ dia e 56 (56%) participantes apresentavam grau de dependência muito elevado ou elevado à nicotina. Constatouse associação entre a média de tempo de tabagismo e idade (p=0,001), estado civil viúvo (p=0,035), colesterol elevado (p=0,035), uso de anti-hipertensivo (p=0,031) e grau de dependência a nicotina muito elevada (p=0,008). A identificação dos fatores associados ao tabagismo possibilita à equipe de saúde buscar e planejar estratégias de prevenção, tratamento e acompanhamento dos tabagistas. DESCRITORES: Tabagismo; Hábito de fumar; Saúde da família; Tabaco; Estudos transversais. FATORES ASSOCIADOS AO TABAGISMO EM USUÁRIOS FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH SMOKING AMONG USERS OF THE FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY ABSTRACT:The aim was to identify factors associated with smoking among users of the Family Health Strategy. A cross-sectional, descriptive and analytic epidemiological study. The sample by convenience encompassed 100 individuals who were users of a Family Health Unit from a city in the center-south region of the Brazilian State of Paraná. There was a predominance of women (n=63; 63%), with a mean age of 49.5 years, Caucasian (n=82; 82%), who had completed junior high school (n=21; 21%) and who were married (n=49; 49%). Mean daily cigarette consumption was 17.7 cigarettes/day and 56 (56%) participants had a very high or high degree of dependence on nicotine. An association was observed between mean smoking duration and age (p=0.001), marital status -widowed (p=0.035), high cholesterol (p=0.035), use of antihypertensives (p=0.031) and very high degree of dependence on nicotine (p=0.008). The identification of the factors associated with smoking makes it possible for the health team to seek and plan prevention strategies, treatment and monitoring of smokers.

“…7 Inadequate consumption of fruits and vegetables and excessive consumption of foods high in fats and sugars are associated with the development and increased incidence of obesity and other chronic noncommunicable diseases, such as CVD. [7][8][9] CVD is the leading cause of death in Brazil and worldwide. Data published by the WHO indicate that around 27% of the world's mortality records were caused by CVD, while in Brazil they were responsible for 31% of deaths.…”

“…8 This epidemiological scenario is of concern, because it implies a decrease in the quality of life of populations, as well as high and increasing costs for the government, society, family and individuals. 9 In view of the above, the present study is justified by the influence of MS occurrence on the risk of developing CVD and the effects of these disorders on the health status of the individual, which are becoming more frequent in the population. Therefore, it is necessary to study the anthropometric and biochemical parameters of patients with MS to help health professionals working specifically with this group.…”

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of death in Brazil and worldwide, being influenced by the presence of risk factors. In the current life context, these factors are increasingly present in individuals, also related to occupation, which require extensive workload, performance, reasoning, goal plan and maximum dedication from the individual, as is the case of undergraduate teachers in Brazil. Objective: To identify cardiovascular risk factors in teaching nurses of a private higher education institution (HEI) in Belém, PA, Brazil. Study Design: A cross-sectional, descriptive survey study with a quantitative approach. At a private HEI in Belém-PA, in March and April 2019. Sardinha et al.; CA, 9(1): 9-17, 2020; Article no.CA.53609 10 Methodology: Performed with 11 teachers nurses that the HEI had. A form was used on the teacher's profile and risk factors. Data were analyzed by simple descriptive statistics through the Bioestat 5.0 program. Results: They are young adults, married, with an extensive workload; 45.45% of them have already had alterations in the HDL and LDL levels, with a family history of Systemic Arterial Hypertension 72.73% and Diabetes Mellitus 81.82%. 45.45% use oral contraceptives. They have a low-fiber diet, rich in lipids and sodium, and practice physical activity. 72.73% consume alcoholic beverages, and none are smokers. Conclusion: The teaching profession, due to extensive workload and stressful activities, offers a risk for inadequate nutrition, sedentary lifestyle, and lack of time for leisure. These factors are associated with other existing factors, which may increase the chances of cardiovascular diseases in these professionals. Original Research Article
