Acurácia de indicadores antropométricos de obesidade para predição do excesso de gordura corporal em adolescentes de onze a catorze anos

Abstract: DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/1980-0037.2016v18n5p548 The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) and conicity index (C index) for the prediction of excess body fat (estimated by skinfold thickness) and determine the cutoffs of anthropometric indicators (BMI, WC, WHtR and C index) that best predict excess body fat. Overall, 1,589 students (11-14 years old) from public and private schools of Florianopolis (southe… Show more

“…As observed in this study, Weiss et al (49) assessed Brazilian adolescents from 11 to 14 years old and found that the CI did not perform well to diagnose high body fat in female adolescents, with a value of area under the curve of 0.52. In boys, the value of the area under the curve was also low, 0.69, showing that CI was not a good predictor of high body fat.…”

“…Segundo Weiss et al(WEISS et al, 2016), em pesquisa com 1.589 escolares entre 11 e 14 anos, avaliou a precisão do IMC, CC, RCE e índice de conicidade (IC), para identificação de adolescentes com excesso de gordura corporal, todos os indicadores, com exceção do índice C para o sexo feminino, obtiveram desempenho satisfatório na detecção de excesso de gordura corporal em ambos os sexos.…”

“…Com base nas medidas de peso em quilogramas e estatura em metros, efetuadas em todos os participantes, foi calculado o Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) através da aplicação da fórmula de Quetelet: IMC = Kg/m 2 (Garrow & Webster, 1985). No entanto, por se tratar de crianças e adolescentes foram tidos em consideração os valores determinados por três critérios de referência baseados no índice de massa corporal (IMC): Center Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), International Obesity Task Force (IOTF) (Cole, Bellizzi, Flegal & Ditz, 2000;Cole, Flegal, Nicholls & Jackson, 2007;Onis et al, 2007;Weiss, Leal, Assis, & Pelegrini, 2016), sendo que tratando-se de população portuguesa foram seguidas as recomendações da Direção Geral de Saúde (DGS), utilizando as curvas de percentis de IMC do CDC, incluídos no Boletim de Saúde Infantil e Juvenil (BSIJ) português (Portugal, 2013;Viveiro, Brito & Moleiro, 2016).…”
