“…Both maternal weight and stature may influence the linear growth potential and weight gain of the children. These circumstances have been explained by the sharing of genetic, socioeconomic and environmental characteristics (Addo et al, 2013;Araújo et al, 2010;Felisbino-Mendes et al, 2014;Figueroa Pedraza et al, 2013;Sichieri et al, 2010;Symonds et al, 2013). Current analysis revealed a strong association between birth weight and the anthropometric nutritional status of children, with similar results in previous studies, such as studies based on municipal or state population data (Jesus, Castelão, Vieira, Gomes, & Vieira, 2014;Figueiroa et al, 2012;Rissin et al, 2011) and in populations marked by social inequity Lang et al, 2011;Silveira et al, 2010).…”

“…In spite of evidence in determining the nutritional status of children by environmental factors, affecting malnutrition and overweight rates (Araújo et al, 2010;Figueiroa, Alves, Lira, & Batista Filho, 2012;Lima et al, 2010;Monteiro et al, 2009;Rissin et al, 2011;Sichieri, Barbosa & Moura, 2010;Felisbino-Mendes, Villamor, & VelasquezMelendez,, 2014), individual factors may demonstrate strong association, especially when adjusted for environmental conditions and lifestyles with these outcomes (Araújo et al, 2010;FelisbinoMendes et al, 2014;Sichieri et al, 2010). Overweight and stunting are nutritional extremes that may coexist in families in developing countries.…”

“…Esses achados são relevantes, pois tanto o nível de insatisfação corporal quanto o estado nutricional são possíveis fatores de risco para o desenvolvimento de futuros transtornos alimentares 1,[11][12][13][14] . No presente estudo, observou-se uma expressiva proporção de crianças com sobrepeso e obesidade, tanto em meninas como em meninos, o que está de acordo com estudos de prevalência de base populacional em nosso meio e em outros locais do Brasil [15][16][17][18][19][20][21] . A maior proporção de insatisfação com a imagem nas crianças obesas e com sobrepeso levanta questões importantes para o debate, como a imposição de padrões artificiais de beleza pela mídia e pela sociedade, que já influenciam crianças pequenas, e a presença pervasiva de bullying sofrido por crianças obesas.…”

“…Também foi verificado que entre os meninos houve prevalência maior de excesso de peso. Araújo et al 20 , quando estudou o estado nutricional de adolescentes que fazem parte de um estudo de coorte na cidade de Pelotas, encontrou maior prevalência de obesidade entre meninos. Estes dados refletem também o estado nutricional da população geral, quando observamos os resultados da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde Escolar (PENSE) desenvolvido em 2009 21 .…”
