“…However, this group difference was not itself statistically significant. Higher BP in stunted than non-stunted overweight women has previously been reported in Brazil [33], suggesting that obesity might be more ‘toxic’ in those previously stunted [16, 17, 19]. Further follow-up of our cohort is needed to ascertain whether the trend identified here amplifies with age.…”

Stunting developed on an inter-generational timescale in this population and its risk increased with birth order. At 8 years, children stunted at 2 years had deficits in tissue masses and some aspects of physical function that were only partially attributable to their persisting short height and maternal phenotype. This suggests that the early stunting is associated with greater deficits in long-term outcomes than would be expected from the persistent short stature alone.

“…In contrast, overweight children are at high risk of adolescent and adult obesity and associated type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension [ 7 , 8 ]. There is also mounting evidence that stunting may predispose children in later life to the same risks as overweight and obesity in childhood [ 9 , 10 ].…”

Understanding the complex determinants of height and adiposity in disadvantaged daycare preschoolers in Salvador, NE Brazil through structural equation modelling

et al. 2015

BackgroundEarlier we reported on growth and adiposity in a cross-sectional study of disadvantaged Brazilian preschoolers. Here we extend the work on these children, using structural equation modelling (SEM) to gather information on the complex relationships between the variables influencing height and adiposity. We hope this information will help improve the design and effectiveness of future interventions for preschoolers.MethodsIn 376 preschoolers aged 3–6 years attending seven philanthropic daycares in Salvador, we used SEM to examine direct and indirect relationships among biological (sex, ethnicity, birth order, maternal height and weight), socio-economic, micronutrient (haemoglobin, serum selenium and zinc), and environmental (helminths, de-worming) variables on height and adiposity, as reflected by Z-scores for height-for-age (HAZ) and body mass index (BMIZ).ResultsOf the children, 11 % had HAZ < −1, 15 % had WHZ < −1, and 14 % had BMIZ > 1. Of their mothers, 8 % had short stature, and 50 % were overweight or obese. Based on standardized regression coefficients, significant direct effects (p < 0.05) for HAZ were maternal height (0.39), being white (−0.07), having helminth infection (−0.09), and serum zinc (−0.11). For BMIZ, significant direct effects were maternal weight (0.21), extremely low SES (−0.15), and haemoglobin (0.14). Indirect (p < 0.05) effects for HAZ were sex (being male) (−0.02), helminth infection (−0.01), de-worming treatment (0.01), and serum selenium (−0.02), and for BMIZ were extremely low SES (−0.001), helminth infection (−0.004), and serum selenium (0.02).ConclusionsOf the multiple factors influencing preschoolers’ growth, helminth infection was a modifiable risk factor directly and indirectly affecting HAZ and BMIZ, respectively. Hence the WHO de-worming recommendation should include preschoolers living in at-risk environments as well as school-aged children.

A baixa estatura leve está associada ao aumento da pressão arterial em adolescentes com sobrepeso

Abstract: Background: Studies have shown that pre/postnatal undernutrition leads to higher risk of non communicable diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity in adulthood.
