“…This data is in agreement with other studies that also associate with age and low schooling (22)(23)(24) . The positive association between PI and obesity was also found in other studies (25)(26)(27)(28) . Other recognized risk factors for PI, such as smoking and alcoholism, were not associated in the present study.…”

“…We observed 67% of the general population were overweight, while 56% presented an increase in AC, when associated with the practice of PA 89.3% and 75%, respectively, were inactive. Visceral obesity, regardless of age, has been considered a risk factor for the development of incapacitating diseases such as acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus and musculoskeletal disorders, contributing to a decrease in functional capacity (26) .…”

Background: Physical inactivity (PI) is one of the most important risk factors that contribute to the development of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases. Objective: To analyze the prevalence and associated factors with PI in adults from a Basic Health Unit in the city of Uraí, state of Paraná. Methods: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was performed at Basic Health Unit of Uraí, and 100 subjects of both genders were evaluated, the average age of 47.55 ± 17.13 years. The data collection was carried through an interview where information of sociodemographic characteristics, consumption of alcoholic beverages, tobacco use, level of physical activity (PA) (IPAQ-8, short version), information of anthropometric measures, waist circumference, and rest blood pressure were collected. The Chi-square and Odds Ratio test was used, considering 95% of confidence interval, using the statistical package SPSS, version 20.0, with a significance level of p <0.05. Results: The prevalence of PI on the sample studied was 66% in both genders. The factors significantly associated with the PI were: advanced age ≥ 40 years (p <0.01), overweight with BMI ≥ 25 (p <0.013), abdominal circumference above 102 cm in men and 88 cm (p <0.042) (P <0.001) and high blood pressure ≥130 / 85 mmHg (p <0.025). Conclusion: The prevalence of associated factors with PI it is high, which suggests the need of public policies and awareness of the importance of oriented-prevention physical activity practice.

“…One of the explanatory hypotheses proposed by the study of Campanha-Versiani et al 32 , which evaluated the performance of 48 elderly women with WC>88cm and found a similar result to the study under discussion, is that the deposition of visceral fat could influence energy expenditure in the exercise, considering that there are also greater obstacles in walking for obese individuals.…”

Objective: to evaluate the relationship between sarcopenia, functional capacity and nutritional status among elderly women living in the community. Method: an observational, cross-sectional study was performed with 100 elderly women aged over 60 years. A questionnaire containing identification and socioeconomic data and information relating to the practice of physical activity was applied, while anthropometric and body composition data were measured through bioimpedance and functionality data was assessed using the six-minute walk test (6MWT). Independent t-tests were performed for the quantitative variables and analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the means of the variables. Multiple linear regression analyzes were performed to estimate the mean 6MWTfor each of the variables studied. Results: The average age of the elderly women was 67 (± 8.0) years, 41% practiced physical activity, 38% had at least an elementary school education, 48% received up to two minimum wages and 91% were obese according to waist circumference (WC). The prevalence rates for the presence of sarcopenia were: 5% for sarcopenic obesity (SO), 63% for obesity, 14% for sarcopenia and 18% had adequate weight. Elderly women who practiced physical activity, had at least an elementary education and who were non-obese according to WC, performed better in the 6MWT. There were no significant differences in the 6MWTbased on income or Body Mass Index (p>0.05). Non-obese and non-sarcopenic women walked further in the functional test than the other women (p = 0.021). Conclusion: SO was present in 5% of the elderly women and is related to poor physical performance, which was also present in elderly women with sarcopenia and obesity.

“…Nevertheless, they already showed some associations. Campanha-Versiani et al (52) conducted a cross-sectional study with forty-eight women and showed that abdominal obesity was associated with lower scores in functional tests. Another cross-sectional study with seventy-seven older adults showed that abdominal circumference was higher in frail individuals (53) .…”
