“…This, in turn, results in the opening of the medial compartment and increased pressure in the lateral knee compartment. With time and development, uneven growth occurs between the two compartments, leading to the emergence of a permanent valgus deformity of the knee (5,29). In this study, we found an association between obesity and valgus knees, which indicates the need for preventive measures.…”

Prevalence of postural deviations and associated factors in children and adolescents: a cross-sectional study [I] Prevalência de variações posturais e fatores associados em crianças e adolescentes: um estudo transversal [A] Mariana Vieira Batistão, Roberta de Fátima Carreira Moreira, Helenice Jane Cote Gil Coury, Luis Ernesto Bueno Salasar, Tatiana de Oliveira Sato * Universidade Federal de São Carlos, (UFSCar), São Carlos, SP, Brazil [R] Abstract Introduction: Postural deviations are frequent in childhood and may cause pain and functional impairment. Previously, only a few studies have examined the association between body posture and intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Objective: To assess the prevalence of postural changes in school children, and to determine, using multiple logistic regression analysis, whether factors such as age, gender, BMI, handedness and physical activity might explain these deviations. Methods: The posture of 288 students was assessed by observation. Subjects were aged between 6 and 15 years, 59.4% (n = 171) of which were female. The mean age was 10.6 (± 2.4) years. Mean body weight was 38.6 (± 12.7) kg and mean height was 1.5 (± 0.1) m. A digital scale, a tapeline, a plumb line and standardized forms were used to collect data. The data were analyzed descriptively using the chi-square test and logistic regression analysis (signi icance level of 5%). Results: We found the following deviations to be prevalent among schoolchildren: forward head posture, 53.5%, shoulder elevation, 74.3%, asymmetry of the iliac crests, 51.7%, valgus knees, 43.1%, thoracic hyperkyphosis, 30.2%, lumbar hyperlordosis, 37.2% and winged shoulder blades, 66.3%. The associated factors were age, gender, BMI and physical activity. Discussion: There was a high prevalence of postural deviations and the intrinsic and extrinsic factors partially explain the postural deviations. Conclusion: These indings contribute to the understanding of how and why these deviations develop, and to the implementation of preventive and rehabilitation programs, given that some of the associated factors are modi iable. 10,6 (2,4) anos, massa corporal de 38,6 (12,7) kg e altura de 1,5 (0,1)

“…Entretanto, as causas exatas ainda são desconhecidas e continuam em debate 5 . A obesidade é caracterizada por excesso de tecido adiposo e a distribuição no corpo ocorre de forma irregular, concentrando-se de forma predominante no tronco, especialmente na região abdominal 6 . Brandalize & Leite 6 realizaram uma revisão sobre a postura no obeso e identificaram que a presença de abdômen protruso determina o deslocamento anterior do centro de gravidade, levando ao aumento da lordose lombar e inclinação anterior da pelve.…”

“…The prevalence of such risk factors has increased in the adult population, however, have also been found high prevalence in children and adolescents [3][4][5] . Among children and adolescents, excess body weight is an increasingly common risk factor 6 , causing, besides cardiovascular problems, sleep apnea, hypertension, osteoarticular disorders and low self-esteem [7][8][9][10] . Physical inactivity is another concern since risk factor studies of Brazilian children and adolescents revealed insufficient practice of physical activities 11 .…”

Objective: To analyze and compare the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in scholars from different socio-economic status. Methods: A total of 1021 children and adolescents were evaluated. Weight, height, waist circumference and blood pressure were measured. Both physical activity practice and socio-economic status (low and high) were reported. Results were analyzed through frequencies of variables and the chi-square test. Results: A lower prevalence of physical inactivity (p<0.001) and higher prevalence of abdominal obesity (p=0.038) and overweight (p=0.010) were observed in the sample from high socio-economic status. No differences regarding elevated blood pressure were observed in those from low and high socio-economic status. When the cardiovascular risk factors were aggregated, the prevalence of one or two factors was also higher among the subjects from high socio-economic status. Conclusion: With the exception of physical inactivity and elevated blood pressure, the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors was higher in those from high socio-economic status.
