Antropometria e perfil lipídico em mulheres com câncer de mama: um estudo caso-controle

Abstract: OBJETIVO: avaliar a composição corporal e o perfil lipídico de mulheres com e sem câncer de mama. MÉTODOS: estudo caso-controle pareado por idade, incluindo 62 mulheres, sendo 31 recém-diagnosticadas com câncer de mama e 31 com alterações mamárias benignas. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevista direta, com caracterização sociodemográfica, avaliação da composição corporal por antropometria, incluindo dobras cutâneas (DC) e circunferências, bioimpedância (BIA) e ultrassonografia (USG), além da avaliaçã… Show more

“…In addition, it is recognized that the distribution of body fat, especially abdominal fat, has more influence on metabolic risk factors than total body fat [33]. In the present study we found an association between waist circumference and breast cancer, which is similar to other studies conducted in Brazil [34][35][36] or in other countries [37,38]. Harvie et al [39] suggest that central obesity may be associated with a risk of breast cancer in premenopausal women, and other studies show association between abdominal obesity and risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women [40,41].…”

“…In the study by Martins et al the majority of the control group also had a better, i.e. higher level of HDL than women with breast cancer [24]. In accordance with the hypothesis that high HDL-C levels might have a protective effect [13,25] against breast cancer [12], Chang et al demonstrated that the lower level of HDL-C might cause a significant, nearly threefold, increase in the risk of breast cancer, while other researchers did not find any connection in this area [22,26,27].…”

“…[22] and Martins et al [24] also demonstrated an increase in LDL-C concentration in patients with breast cancer in comparison to the control group. Higher levels of LDL-C, which is more prone to oxidation, in the serum might lead to high lipid peroxidation in breast cancer patients.…”

“…Outro estudo caso-controle avaliou as medidas antropométricas de mulheres com câncer de mama da região centro-oeste e não mostrou diferença entre os dados de peso, IMC e CC entre os grupos, todavia as mulheres com câncer de mama apresentaram maior porcentagem de gordura corporal (54,7%). 25 Evidências sugerem uma associação positiva entre a obesidade e a doença. 13 O excesso de peso promove a elevação do nível de estrógeno, insulina e fator de crescimento semelhante à insulina (IGF-1) circulantes.…”
