“…Similar results for the family income pattern were observed in other studies 27,30 . In Brazil, between 1974 and 2009, obesity prevalence increased (from 0.1% to 2.1%) among adolescents of both genders across all income strata, but with greater magnitude among those with higher income (from 1.2% to 9.2%) 35 .…”

The aims were to examine changes in the prevalence of overweight and obesity among students from 2001 to 2011, and to verify if these changes differ according to age group, area of residence, and family income. We analyzed two cross-sectional surveys conducted in 2001 and 2011 with brazilian adolescents. Sociodemographic and anthropometric characteristics were self-reported using a questionnaire. Multinomial logistic regression was used to analyze changes in overweight and obesity between the two surveys. The nutritional status was the outcome of the present study and the surveys (2001 and 2011) were the exposure. The odds of being overweight and obese were higher among boys and girls in urban areas in the 2011 survey compared to the 2001. Boys and girls with higher income were also more likely to present overweight and obesity in the second survey compared to the first. An increase of overweight and obesity was observed over a decade. We suggest that future interventions consider the area of residence and the family income to strengthen the effectiveness of actions developed to prevent and control these indicators among adolescents.

“…Já a obesidade cresceu 60%, passando de 11% para 18,7%, sendo 19,6% em mulheres e 18,1% em homens (VIGITEL, 2016). 9 Por outro lado, em um estudo realizado no Nordeste do Brasil com 5.544 estudantes adolescentes, encontrou-se que o excesso de peso tem predominância no sexo masculino, pertencentes à classe econômica mais elevada (FARIAS JR;MENDONÇA, 2016).…”

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo avaliar o perfil de risco para doenças cardiovasculares em estudantes universitários do período noturno na zona Sul de São Paulo. Utilizou-se, para esta pesquisa, o método de estudo transversal, quantitativo, realizado com 116 universitários em São Paulo (SP). Os dados sociodemográficos e os hábitos de vida foram coletados mediante questionário autopreenchido. Nos resultados obtidos, prevaleceu uma população jovem, com média de idade de 26,7 anos (dp= 8,9) e sexo feminino (59,5%, n= 69). Ao comparar por sexo, o masculino apresentou fatores de risco para pré-hipertensão (46,7%) e hipertensão (19,1%), hiperglicemia (4,4%) e etilismo (13%). As mulheres apresentaram como fatores de risco, a colesterolemia (27,5%), o índice de massa corporal elevado (33,9%), o sedentarismo (72,5%) e o Self-Reporting Questionnaire (> 7) (37,7%). Concluiu-se que o risco cardiovascular para esses 116 estudantes foi menor quando comparado com outros na literatura, porém, necessitam de atenção quanto a algumas mudanças nos hábitos do estilo de vida para ambos os sexos.

ResumenEl objetivo de este estudio fue analizar el efecto de una unidad didáctica de fuerza en la capacidad de lanzamiento de balón medicinal (LBM) de alumnos de bachillerato. En este estudio participaron 132 alumnos (16,8 ± 0,7 años; 61,7 ± 11,1 kg; 1,68 ± 0,09 m; 21,9 ± 3,1 kg·m -2 ) pertenecientes al Primer curso de Bachillerato del Instituto Benjamín de Tudela, de los cuales 57 eran chicos y 75 eran chicas. En una sesión previa al comienzo del estudio (T1), se realizó una prueba de valoración de la capacidad de lanzamiento de balón medicinal (LBM) de todos los participantes. Seguidamente se desarrollaron las 2 sesiones semanales de la unidad didáctica de fuerza durante 8 semanas. Tras finalizar la intervención (T2), se volvió a realizar el mismo test de valoración. Para determinar las diferencias entre los resultados obtenidos en el T1 y el T2 para el total de los participantes, y de forma independiente para el grupo de chicos y el de las chicas, se utilizó una prueba t de muestras relacionadas. Los resultados mostraron una mejora significativa (p < 0,01) en el LBM de todos los participantes (% = 6,28; d = -0,34), del grupo de los chicos (% = 7,41; d = -0,51) y del grupo de las chicas (% = 5,22; d = -0,28) después de las 8 semanas de intervención. La unidad didáctica de fuerza, que consistía en 16 sesiones con una duración de 60 minutos por sesión y que se realizaron en 8 semanas consecutivas, generó una mejora en la capacidad de LBM en los chicos y las chicas de primero de bachillerato.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to analyze the effect of a strength unit on the medicine ball throw capacity (LBM) in high school students. 132 adolescents (16,8 ± 0,7 years; 61,7 ± 11,1 kg; 1,68 ± 0,09 m; 21,9 ± 3,1 kg·m -2 ), corresponding to 1 st high school level of Benjamin Institute, participated in this study. 57 were boys and 75 were girls. In a previous session before starting the study (T1), an assessment of medicine ball throw capacity (LBM) was performed for all participants. Then, 2 sessions per week during 8 weeks of a strength unit was developed. After this intervention (T2), the same assessment was again performed. A t test for paired samples was used to compare the differences between the results in T1 and T2 for all participants, for boys group and for girls group. The results showed a significant improvement (p < 0,01) in the LBM in all participants (% = 6,28; d = -0,34), in boys (% = 7,41; d = -0,51) and in girls (% = 5,22; d = -0,28) after a 8-week intervention program. Strength unit that, consisted in 16 sessions with 60 minutes per session and 8 consecutive weeks, induced an improvement on the medicine ball throw capacity in boys and girls of the 1 st high school level.
