Activation of adipose tissue inflammation is associated with obesity caused by lipid accumulation in adipocytes. Through this activation, proinflammatory cytokines, such as Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) seem to influence metabolic disorders. The present study evaluated whether polymorphisms in the CRP (rs1205) and IL-6 (rs1800795, rs2069845) genes are associated with the development of metabolic disorders in children and adolescents. A cross-sectional study was performed, consisting of 470 students from the municipality of Santa Cruz do Sul, Brazil, aged 7-17 years. Body mass index (BMI) was classified according to overweight and obesity. Genotyping was performed by real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Anthropometric characteristics, biochemical markers, immunological markers and blood pressure were assessed. Descriptive statistics, chi-square and logistic regression were used for the analyses. No association was detected between the rs1800795 polymorphism and the assessed variables. Individuals with the risk genotype in the rs1205 gene were associated with the risk of developing hypercholesterolemia (OR 2.79; CI 1.40, 5.57; p = 0.003). Carriers of the risk genotype in the rs2069845 gene are associated with the risk of developing obesity (OR 3.07; CI 1.08, 8.72; p = 0.03). The polymorphism rs2069845 was associated with obesity and rs1205 was associated with the risk of developing hypercholesterolemia in Brazilian schoolchildren.

“…Em relação à hiperglicemia, nossos achados demonstraram prevalência superior à observada em escolares brasileiros 12,15 e inferior à reportada em jovens norte-americanos 14 . Para a pressão arterial elevada, a prevalência do presente estudo foi superior à descrita para as populações pediátricas brasileira 12,13,15 , alemã 11 e norteamericana 14 . Este trabalho foi realizado em um município de pequeno porte e quase 60% dos investigados declararam renda familiar mensal inferior a um salário mínimo.…”

“…Prevalências preocupantes de dislipidemia, hiperglicemia e pressão arterial elevada também têm sido observadas na população pediá-trica 8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 . A presença desses fatores de risco na infância e adolescência aumenta significativamente a chance para o surgimento de doenças cardiovasculares na vida adulta 16 , representando uma elevada carga de morbidade e mortalidade precoce na população 5 .…”

Resumo Objetivou-se investigar a prevalência de dislipidemia, hiperglicemia e pressão arterial elevada em escolares, bem como, suas associações com fatores demográficos, socioeconômicos, biológicos e comportamentais. Estudo transversal com 1.139 escolares, de seis a 18 anos de idade, do Município de Amargosa, Bahia, Brasil. Foram analisadas variáveis demográficas, socioeconômicas, biológicas e comportamentais. Utilizou-se a razão de prevalência (RP) como medida de associação. As prevalências de dislipidemia, hiperglicemia e pressão arterial elevada foram, respectivamente, 62,1%, 6,6% e 27%. A dislipidemia esteve associada com a localização geográfica da escola (RP = 1,52) e circunferência da cintura (RP = 1,20), e a hiperglicemia com a localização geográfica da escola (RP = 3,41) e adiposidade periférica (RP = 3,13). A pressão arterial elevada ficou associada com a faixa etária (RP = 2,34), razão da cintura pela estatura (RP = 1,62), maturação sexual (RP = 2,06) e atividade física (RP = 1,32). Programas de intervenção para escolares baseados em mudanças de hábitos de vida são necessários.

“…No Brasil, a prevalência de excesso de peso varia de 8,9% a 31,3% em crianças e em adolescentes [7][8][9]. Além disto, estima-se que 11% das crianças menores de cinco anos de todo o mundo terão sobrepeso no ano de 2025 [10].…”

ABSTRACT Aims:To evaluate the nutritional status of children and adolescents by anthropometric indicators and to evaluate the association of these results with blood pressure. Methods: Children and adolescents between four and 19 years of age from rural and urban schools of a municipality of Rio Grande do Sul were included in this study. Those who refused (or whose parents refused) to participate or did not sign the consent form, or in whom it was not possible to carry out the anthropometric or blood pressure measurements, were excluded. Weight, height, waist circumference, skin folds and blood pressure were measured, and the body mass index was calculated. Data were described by mean, standard deviation, amplitude of variation, absolute and relative frequencies. Stratification by gender, body mass index and central obesity was performed to analyze the influence of these on the other variables. Pearson's Chi-square was used to evaluate the associations. The level of significance was p<0.05. Results: At the time of data collection, 7,082 children and adolescents within the age group were enrolled in the municipal schools, and they were invited to participate. After applying the exclusion criteria, 5,936 children/adolescents were included in the study. The sample presented prevalence of overweight of 30.3%, central obesity 31.1% and excess body fat 8.7%. Overweight was higher in children from private schools (44.1%) than in state schools (29.5%) and municipal schools (29.9%) (p<0.001). There were statistically significant associations of high blood pressure with overweight, obesity, and central obesity (p<0.001). Conclusions: Prevalence of overweight was high and hypertension was associated with overweight, obesity and central obesity in children and adolescents of the studied population.
