“…The average values of HDL-cholesterol were higher to women, which was also noted in other Brazilian studies 21,26 . The statistically significant difference between the means of HDL-cholesterol in women and men probably explains the finding of different rates of total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol, as the total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol did not show significant different between the sexes.…”

ObjectiveTo assess the lipidic profile of overweight and obese individuals submitted to cardiologic assessment and who did not show evidences of cardiopathy. MethodsSample with 684 individuals, 389 (56.9%) 26.15 and in men 26.33 (p=ns). In the analysis through BMI ranges there was a significant difference between the sexes (p=0.037). In the categories of overweight and obesity, only the means of triglycerides in women showed a significant statistic difference: overweight women with 102.25±60.68 mg/dL and obese 121.64±63.57 mg/dL (p=0.034). ConclusionWomen without cardiopathy showed serum levels of glucose, triglycerides and HDL-cholesterol lower than men's. In both sexes, the means are lower in the comparison with eutrophic and overweight, and only the triglycerides average of women with overweight and obesity showed significant statistic difference.

“…Previous studies in Brazil have focused on the frequency of the individual components of MS. For this reason, the level of occurrence of MS within the whole Brazilian population and the factors that determine its prevalence are still unclear. [20][21][22] A further important result deriving from the present study was the strong association detected between MS and overweight, particularly when the whole population was considered. These variables remained significantly associated following adjustment for a number of covariables including age, skin color, marital status, smoking habits and schooling.…”

Prevalence of metabolic syndrome in a rural area of Brazil

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is recognized worldwide as an important public health concern. However, little information is available for rural populations in Brazil. The aim was to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with MS in a rural village in Brazil in 2004. DESIGN AND SETTING:Cross-sectional population-based study, in Virgem das Graças, a rural community in the Jequitinhonha Valley, State of Minas Gerais.METHODS: MS was the dependent variable, defined as any three of these risk factors: arterial hypertension, high glucose or triglyceride concentrations, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and abdominal obesity. MS prevalence, according to selected socioeconomic and demographic variables (age, skin color, marital status, schooling and smoking habits), was determined in 251 subjects aged 20-88 years. Multivariate logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals.RESULTS: MS prevalence was 21.6% (7.7% for men and 33.6% for women); the age-adjusted prevalence was 19.0%. The highest prevalences were observed for women > 60 years of age (52.9%) and women with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m 2 (64%). Age, sex and BMI were associated risk factors for MS, while skin color was only significantly associated with MS for women. The models were adjusted for age, smoking habits, marital status, skin color and schooling.CONCLUSIONS: BMI and age were independently associated factors for MS in this rural community. These findings provide important evidence on the prevalence of MS as a public health problem, particularly for women and overweight individuals.

“…Esses números assemelham-se aos encontrados em 7.392 adultos que tiveram seu perfil lipídico analisado em laborató-rios da cidade de Salvador/BA. Destes, 28% apresentaram colesterol total acima de 240 mg/dL (17). Sendo Salvador uma cidade com poucos imigrantes japoneses, a semelhança desses resultados salienta que os hábitos de vida ocidental atuam de modo semelhante para o surgimento de hipercolesterolemia em populações de etnias diversas.…”

RESUMOAlta prevalência de diabetes em população nipo-brasileira de Bauru/SP foi previamente relatada. Visando a complementar a avaliação do risco cardiometabólico, este estudo analisou distúrbios no perfil lipídico de 1.330 nipobrasileiros (46% homens) > 30 anos. Definiu-se hipercolesterolemia por níveis de colesterol total 240 mg/dL; hipertrigliceridemia por valores 150 mg/dL e HDL-colesterol baixo por valores < 40 mg/dL e < 50 mg/dL para homens e mulheres, respectivamente. A prevalência desses distúrbios foi comparada pelo qui-quadrado, estratificando-se por sexos e categorias glicêmicas. As médias dos lipídeos e lipoproteínas foram comparadas entre sexos pelo teste t de Student. A prevalência de hipertrigliceridemia foi de 66,0% (IC95%:63,5 -68,5%), sendo mais comum em homens e aumentando com a piora da categoria glicêmica; a trigliceridemia média foi 235,7 ± 196,3 mg/dL. A prevalência de hipercolesterolemia foi 24,4% (IC95%:22,1 -26,7%); HDL-C baixo foi observado em 43,0% (IC95%:39,4 -46,6%] das mulheres e 17,5% (IC95%:14,5 -20,5%) dos homens, porém a razão colesterol total/HDL-C foi menor em mulheres
