“…However, when body fat is located in the upper part of the body, the negative repercussions -both metabolic and cardiovascular, seem to be more significant (6) . Computed tomography (CT) (7) , magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (8) and double energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) (9) are considered excellent techniques to assess body fat distribution.…”

Relation of neck circumference and relative muscle strength and cardiovascular risk factors in sedentary womenRelação da circunferência do pescoço com a força muscular relativa e os fatores de risco cardiovascular em mulheres sedentárias ). Based on the neck circumference, the sample was divided into two groups: Group Circumference <35cm (n=27) and Group Circumference ≥35cm (n=33) to compare relative muscle strength and cardiovascular risk factors. The correlation between variables was tested by Pearson and Spearman correlations, with a significance level established at p<0.05. Results: The findings revealed that women with neck circumference ≥35cm presented higher values of body mass, waist circumference, body adiposity index, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin and volume of visceral fat when compared with the group with neck circumference <35cm. Additionally, the group with larger neck circumference presented lower values of relative strength. Conclusion: Neck circumference seems to be an important predictive factor of cardiovascular risk and of relative strength loss in middleaged sedentary women.

“…BMI (kg/m 2 ) was calculated through the weight ratio through squared height and it was classified as weight excess when it was ≥ 25 kg/m 2 for adults (20) and ≥ 28 kg/m 2 for elderlies (21). Waist/height ratio (WHtR) (cut-off points: 0.52 for men and 0.53 for women) (22) and the conicity index (cut-off points: 1.25 for men and 1.18 for women) (23) were also used as indicators of central obesity. 5.…”

Intake of fibers and its association with cardiometabolic risk factors in individuals on a secondary prevention for cardiovascular diseases: a multicenter study ResumenIntroducción: entre las medidas no farmacológicas para la prevención y el tratamiento de enfermedades cardiovasculares (ECV), que representan la principal causa de muerte en el mundo, la ingesta adecuada de fibra dietética (FD) ha mostrado desempeñar un papel importante. Objetivo: evaluar la asociación entre el consumo de FD y los factores de riesgo cardiometabólico en pacientes en prevención secundaria de ECV. Métodos: estudio transversal con datos de referencia de los participantes en el estudio DICA Br pertenecientes a los centros examinadores en los estados de Maranhão (MA), Bahía (BA) y Río de Janeiro (RJ). Se utilizaron medidas sociodemográficas, clínicas, conductuales, antropométricas y el consumo diario de FD de individuos de ambos sexos, con edades ≥ 45 años y manifiesta evidencia de aterosclerosis. La asociación entre en el consumo de FD y los factores de riesgo cardiometabólico se obtuvo por el modelo de regresión de Poisson. Resultados: fueron evaluados 141 sujetos y se observó alta frecuencia de consumo insuficiente de FA. Los participantes de los centros de RJ (RP = 0,63; IC 95% = 0,49-0,80), BA (RP = 0,79; IC 95%: 0,66-0,95), los ex fumadores (RP = 0,59; IC 95% = 0,78-0,45) y los no fumadores (OR = 0,62; IC 95%: 0,66-0,95) eran menos propensos a tener un consumo insuficiente FD. Las personas con sobrepeso mostraron un 28,0% más de probabilidades de tener una ingesta inadecuada de FD. Conclusión: los resultados indicaron que la mayoría de la población observada presentaba una ingesta inadecuada de FD y que el consumo bajo se asoció significativamente con el sobrepeso, el tabaquismo y el centro de desarrollo. AbstractIntroduction: Among the non-pharmacologic measures for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which are the first cause of death worldwide, the adequate intake of dietary fibers (DF) has shown an important role. Objective: To evaluate the association between the intake of DF and the cardio-metabolic risk factors in individuals on a secondary prevention for CVD. Methods: Transversal study with basal data of the study's DICA Br participants belonging to collaborative centers in the states of Maranhão (MA), Bahia (BA) and Rio de Janeiro (RJ). Sociodemographic and clinical data were used, as well as the daily intake of DF in individuals of both sexes, with age ≥ 45 years and manifest evidence of arteriosclerosis. The association between the intake of dietary fibers and the cardio-metabolic risk factors was obtained through Poisson's regression model. Results: With 141 evaluated individuals, high frequency of non-appropriateness of DF intake was observed. The participants in the centers of RJ (PR = 0.63; CI 95% = 0.49-0.80) and BA (PR = 0.79; CI 95% = 0.66-0.95), former smokers (PR = 0.59; CI 95% = 0.45-0.78) and non-smokers (PR = 0.62; CI 95% = 0.66-0.95) had fewer chances of having non appropriate in...

A antropometria representa um importante instrumento para a efetivação de práticas na atenção primária à saúde e, embora muitos indicadores antropométricos tenham sido utilizados, a razão cintura-estatura (RCE) e o índice de adiposidade corporal (IAC) têm sido pouco explorados neste contexto, especialmente, entre idosos. Portanto, este estudo analisou diferentes indicadores antropométricos associados ao risco cardiometabólico de idosas em Núcleos de Apoio à Saúde da Família (NASFs) da cidade de Patos-PB. Em um estudo transversal descritivo, 53 idosas [Média (DP); idade: 72 (6) anos, massa corporal: 66,3 (13,4) kg, estatura: 152,6 (5,1) cm] foram submetidas a medidas antropométricas de massa corporal, estatura e circunferências de cintura (CC), abdômen e quadril. Posteriormente, foram calculados: índice de massa corporal (IMC), RCE, índice de conicidade (IC) e IAC. O relacionamento entre os indicadores antropométricos foi calculado, a partir do coeficiente de correlação de Pearson (r). Os resultados demonstraram que a maioria das idosas apresentou risco elevado para doenças cardiometabólicas, independentemente dos indicadores empregados. Com exceção do IC, os indicadores antropométricos apresentaram moderados a excelentes relacionamentos entre si (P<0,05). Embora o IAC tenha demonstrado bons relacionamentos, a RCE foi o indicador com correlações mais fortes com os demais (0,606<r<0,954). Conclui-se que idosas cadastradas em diferentes NASFs da cidade de Patos-PB apresentaram risco moderado a elevado para doenças cardiometabólicas, sobretudo, a partir da análise conjunta do IMC/CC e da RCE. Assim, medidas antropométricas são recomendadas, a fim de contribuirem para a identificação de fatores predeterminantes de doenças não-comunicáveis em idosos na atenção primária à saúde.Palavras-chave: Antropometria.

AbstractAnthropometry represents an important tool for the implementation of primary health care practices, and although a lot of anthropometric indices have been used, the waist-height ratio (WHR) and the body adiposity index (BAI) have been little explored in this context, especially among the elderly. Therefore, this study analyzed different anthropometric indicators associated with the cardiometabolic risk of elderly women in Family Health Support Centers (FHSC) in Patos-PB. In a descriptive cross-sectional study, 53 elderly women [mean (SD); age: 72 (6) years, body mass: 66.3 (13.4) kg, height: 152.6 (5.1) cm] underwent anthropometric measures of body mass, height and waist (WC), abdomen and hip circumferences. Subsequently, body mass index (BMI), WHR, conicity index (CI) and BAI were calculated. The relationship among the anthropometric indexes was calculated using the Pearson correlation coefficient (r). Results showed the majority of the elderly presented a high risk for cardiometabolic diseases, regardless of the used index. With the exception of CI, the anthropometric indicators presented moderate to excellent relationships (P<0.05). Although BAI showed good relationships, the WHR was the indicator with stronger correlations with the others (0.606<r<0.954). In conclusion, elderly women enrolled in different FHSC in Patos-PB presented moderate to high risk for cardiometabolic diseases, mainly from the analysis of BMI and WC analysis together with WHR. Thus, anthropometric measures are recommended in order to contribute to the identification of predictors of noncommunicable diseases in the elderly in primary health care.Keywords: Anthropometry.
