Associação entre excesso de peso e obesidade e mortalidade em capitais brasileiras e províncias argentinas

Abstract: Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a associação da prevalência de excesso de peso e obesidade com as taxas de mortalidade total e específica nas capitais brasileiras e províncias argentinas. Estudo ecológico com dados secundários, em que as exposições principais foram as prevalências de excesso de peso e obesidade estimadas com base em dados da pesquisa Vigilância de Fatores de Risco e Proteção para Doenças Crônicas por Inquérito Telefônico (Vigitel) de 2014 (Brasil) e da Pesquisa Nacional de Fatore… Show more

“…Although there is no consensus on the role of excess weight in increasing the risk of early mortality, some evidence indicates that any level of overweight could already be responsible for increasing the overall risk of mortality for individuals [ 3 , 4 ]. In South America, a study carried out using data from the 2014 Vigitel, in Brazil, and the 2013 National Risk Factors Survey, in Argentina, showed a positive association between the prevalence of obesity and overall mortality in both countries at the aggregated level [ 28 ].…”

“…We used the Partial Correlation Test (r), controlled for confounding factors, to evaluate the correlation between the prevalence of overweight/obesity and the overall mortality rates due to COVID-19. The use of correlation tests between similar measures was previously described (14). This technique was chosen because it allows the evaluation of the pure relationship between two variables, after statistically eliminating the influence of other independent variables.…”

“…The indicators that assess weight control, healthy diet and physical exercise also make up the first factor of the scale, being closely related to lifestyle. These items appear constantly in the literature, strongly linked to the decrease in morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular diseases and cancer, and demonstrated clinical validity in this study (29)(30) .…”
