Parâmetros antropométricos e de composição corporal na predição do percentual de gordura e perfil lipídico em escolares

Abstract: OBJETIVO: Avaliar a eficácia de indicadores antropométricos e da composição corporal na predição do percentual de gordura e perfil lipídico em escolares. MÉTODOS: Estudo transversal envolvendo 209 escolares entre sete e nove anos. Foram consideradas as seguintes variáveis: peso, estatura, índice de massa corporal, percentual de gordura corporal, circunferências do braço e cintura, índice de conicidade, razão cintura/estatura, razão cintura/quadril, colesterol total, triglicerídeos e lipoproteínas de alta e bai… Show more

“…15,16 Considering that BMI may underestimate body fat, 4 it is believed that skinfold measures featured in this research had reach a higher amount of students with body fat excess. In Brazil, the students from seven to ten years old have been following the nutritional transition, 17 quickly replacing the scarcity problem with the excess.…”

“…Although anthropometric measurements are used to determine the effect of PA interventions on body composition, [11][12][13][14] to our knowledge, there are no systematic reviews with meta-analyses that have answered the following questions in Chilean children and adolescents: What are the effects of PA interventions on anthropometry assessments? What are the most widely used field-based methods and health indices methods to measure the effect of PA-based strategies?…”

“…[8][9][10] The results of these interventions in many cases are based on the determination of the effect they produce on anthropometry indicators (e.g., weight, height, body mass index -BMI) that are repeatedly used to estimate body fat distribution. [11,12] In turn, it is common for PA interventions to assess other field-based methods for body composition estimation, such as skinfolds or body circumferences. [13,14] Consequently, these anthropometry indicators allow the calculation of health indices, such as height-for-age or waist-tohip ratio.…”

“…Regarding the use of the measure of AC to predict excess weight were found two studies in Brazil; 11,26 however, these studies were conducted with children from 6 to 10 years, which makes it difficult to comparability of cutoff points. A study done with adolescents from 10 to 14 years of South Africa 10 verified cutoff points for AC of 22,8cm and 23,6cm for boys and girls, respectively.…”
