OBJECTIVE: To test association between overweight, central obesity and stature. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study carried-out between 1990 ± 1991. SUBJECTS: 951 adults (387 male and 564 female) aged 20 ± 64 y, resident in the metropolitan area of Sa Ä o Paulo, Brazil. MEASUREMENTS: Anthropometry, blood lipid concentrations (total, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, triglycerides (TGs) and blood glucose. Body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) and waist circumference were used to identify overweight (BMI b 25 kgam 2 ), obdominal obesity (WHR tertile 3 and waist circumference tertile 3), respectively. The subjects were categorised as those of short stature (women`150 cm, men`162 cm) and those of normal stature (women !150 cm, men !162 cm). RESULTS: Prevalence of short stature was 19.6% and 15.4% in men and women, respectively. Short stature women had higher serum concentrations of total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, TGs and glucose than those of normal stature. Among men, this difference was not observed, except for glucose concentrations. Short stature women had high BMI and WHR means in some age categories, compared with those of normal stature. Both overweight and high WHR frequencies were greater in short stature women than in those of normal ones. In multivariate analysis, adjusted by age, income, marital status, education, physical activity and tobacco use, only women group with short stature compared with normal stature had signi®cantly risk of overweight an high WHR. In the same group there was no association with waist circumference. Among the men there was signi®cant opposite association with waist circumference. CONCLUSION: Short stature in women can potentially be an independent risk factor for overweight and high WHR.

ObjectiveIt has been suggested that the indicators of centralized obesity, namely by waist-to-hip circumference ratio (WHR) and waist circumference (WC), express different metabolic disorders. Thus, a study was conducted in order to verify the diagnostic potential of the relationship between these two measures and social, behavioral, and biological determinants of centralized obesity. MethodsTwo hierarchical multiple regression models were applied to a 1,042 subject sample from the city of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil, in order to evaluate relationships between indicators and determinants for centralized obesity. Clinical, biochemical/laboratory, and behavioral surveys were carried out using standardized questionnaires. Evaluation included blood pressure, anthropometric measurements, and waist and hip circumference measurements.

OBJETIVO: As fibras alimentares estão entre os principais fatores da alimentação na prevenção de doenças crônicas. Por isso, objetivou-se estimar o consumo médio diário de fibras alimentares totais, insolúveis e solúveis, nas refeições de uma população de área metropolitana. MÉTODOS: Foi estudada uma amostra da população do Município de Cotia, SP, composta por 559 indivíduos com mais de 20 anos. O consumo alimentar foi obtido pelo método de história alimentar - dieta habitual. Foram identificadas as fontes de fibras nas refeições: desjejum, almoço e jantar. Com base na porção média, os alimentos foram classificados quanto ao conteúdo de fibras como: muito alto (7 g ou mais); alto (4,5 g a 6,9 g); moderado (2,4 g a 4,4 g) e baixo (< 2,4 g). RESULTADOS: O consumo médio diário da população foi de 24 g de fibras totais, sendo as quantidades médias de fibras insolúveis 17 g e, de solúveis, 7 g. O consumo de fibras alimentares entre mulheres e homens foi, respectivamente, 20 g e 29 g (p<0,01). A maioria dos alimentos presentes na dieta continha baixo teor de fibras. O feijão foi o único alimento com alto teor de fibras na dieta habitual e, a principal fonte de fibra na alimentação. O almoço e o jantar foram as refeições que forneceram maior quantidade de fibras. CONCLUSÕES: Constatou-se baixo consumo de fibras alimentares, com diferenças estatisticamente significante entre os sexos. As práticas alimentares revelaram que a dieta é constituída por alimentos pobres em fibras alimentares.
