Associação entre a razão cintura-estatura e hipertensão e síndrome metabólica: estudo de base populacional

Abstract: Background: Hypertension and metabolic syndrome are cardiovascular risk factors associated with increased adiposity. In a previous study, waist-to-stature ratio (WSR) was identified as the best obesity index associated with left ventricular hypertrophy.

“…Na análise de correlação linear, o índice C, assim como os demais parâmetros antropométricos, correlacionou-se positivamente, embora de forma fraca, com os níveis tensionais, sendo a correlação mais acentuada com a PAD. Da mesma forma, Rodrigues, Baldo e Mill [32] encontraram correlação positiva significativa entre índices antropométricos (IMC, CC, RCQ e RCE) e níveis pressóricos em mulheres, tendo também a PAD apresentado maiores coeficientes de correlação quando comparada à PAS.…”

“…Em contrapartida, outros autores encontraram a RCE, que consiste num marcador de obesidade abdominal e está fortemente relacionado com a gordura visceral, como o melhor preditor de HAS, sendo RCE ≥0,53 (AUC 0,76; IC95% 0,73-0,79) e RCE ≥0,51 (AUC 0,68; IC95% 0,66-0,70) os melhores pontos de corte para mulheres brasileiras da cidade de Vitória e mulheres coreanas, respectivamente [32,35]. Esses pontos de corte foram menores do que o encontrado neste estudo.…”
