“…As mulheres com as alterações hormonais à medida que a idade avança, quando não praticam atividades físicas regulares, acompanhada de alimentação não saudável, são iminentes candidatas às DCVs (WHO, 2010). Estudo realizado em Portugal com 239 mulheres verificou a associação entre a caminhada e/ou atividade física de intensidade moderada e intra-abdominal, evidenciando que a caminhada oferece proteção contra o excesso de gordura intra-abdominal e suas complicações para as doenças metabólicas e cardiovasculares em mulheres pós-menopáusicas (PITANGA et al, 2014).…”

Resumo: Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar as doenças prevalentes e correlacionar fatores preditivos às Doenças Cardiovasculares (DCVs) em mulheres maiores de 18 anos residentes em Jataí-Goiás-Brasil. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, descritivo quantitativo, realizado no ano de 2015 com avaliação de 255 mulheres integrantes de duas unidades Estratégicas de Saúde da Família. O instrumento de pesquisa utilizado foi um questionário com perguntas de respostas fechadas, cujos resultados foram analisados pelo Programa SPSS -Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, versão 17.0. Os resultados mostram que as alterações nos níveis pressóricos encontradas neste estudo estão correlacionadas à obesidade acentuada, medidas antropométricas e Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) acima dos níveis normais. Os fatores de risco para as DCVs prevalentes foram etilismo, inatividade física, jornada de trabalho extensa e tabagismo. Estes dados reforçam a importância da implementação de ações preventivas a serem adotadas pelas equipes multiprofissionais de saúde na cidade de Jataí, pois os hábitos de vida praticados pelas participantes contribuem para o aumento dos fatores de risco modificáveis para doenças cardiovasculares (DCVs). Palavras-chave: Fatores de risco. Saúde da Mulher. Prevenção de doenças.Abstract: This study aimed to identify prevalent diseases and to correlate predictive factors to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in women older than 18 years of age living in Jataí-Goiás-Brazil. This is a cross-sectional, quantitative descriptive study carried out in the year 2015 with the evaluation of 255 women members of two Strategic Family Health Units. The research instrument used was a questionnaire with closed answer questions, whose results were analyzed by the SPSS Program -Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, version 17.0. The results show that changes in pressure levels found in this study correlate with marked obesity, anthropometric measurements and Body Mass Index (BMI) above normal levels. The risk factors for prevalent CVD were alcoholism, physical inactivity, extensive work hours and smoking. These data reinforce the importance of the implementation of preventive actions to be adopted by multiprofessional health teams in the city of Jataí, since the life habits practiced by the participants contribute to the increase of modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).

“…[20] As a method of prevention of these factors has been the practice of physical activity with minimum frequency of five times a week, because it triggers a reduction of body weight and visceral fat, while preserving lean body mass, preventing excessive energy expenditure. [21] Physical activity and nutrition are two behaviors considered priorities for health promotion and chronic disease prevention. Several institutions and organizations such as the American Heart Association, the World Health Organization and the American College of sports medicine, have emphasized the importance of the adoption of regular physical activity for the improvement of individual and collective health levels, especially for prevention and rehabilitation of Cardiovascular Disease.…”

“…It can be observed in Figure 1 the clear formation of two groups: the first consisting of five individuals to the numbers in Figure designated (6,7,11,13,21) and these have scores 2 and 3 respectively. That is, these individuals represent a condition unfavorable in terms of health and therefore more prone to cardiovascular risks since they represent the presence of the factors associated with an increase of this kind of risk.…”

Objective: Analyze the influence of the measures body composition cardiovascular risk in elderly practitioners of physical activity.Method: This is an exploratory study, transversal and quantitative.Held from May to June 2015, in the municipality of João Pessoa/Paraí-ba, with elderly patrons of sport aerobics. Were selected for the study 21 people, with inclusion criteria does not own metallic structure in the body to prevent the measure through bioimpedance equipment octopolar InBody 720, less than 60 years of their own age and practice aerobics activity at least three months.Results: Most of the individuals represented unfavorable health condition being more prone to cardiovascular risks. Identified that normal systolic blood pressure was the variable that most contributed to the score designed to show the possibility of a lower cardiovascular risk, while the visceral fat and fat-free mass were the factors that contributed for increased cardiovascular risk. Conclusion:Optimization of preventive practices is necessary for cardiovascular diseases that propitiate the awareness of affected subject.

“…The influence of behavioral habits on the differentiation of metabolic phenotypes, particularly the effect of physical activity, is worthy of investigation, since it is a modifiable factor that can be used as a preventive and therapeutic strategy (Jae et al, 2017). Scientific evidence shows that physical activity is significantly associated with decreased levels of visceral fat (Kotani et al, 1994;Pitanga, Pitanga, Gabriel, & Moreira, 2014;Sasai et al, 2010). One of the probable mechanisms responsible for this relationship is the greater lipolytic response resulting from the effects of the catecholamines released during the physical activity, resulting in marked lipolysis in the abdominal tissue (Després et al, 1991).…”

Objective: To explore the mediating role of visceral adiposity, as assessed by the visceral adiposity index (VAI), in the relationship among schooling, physical inactivity, and unhealthy metabolic phenotype (UMP). Methods: A cross-sectional population-based study was conducted with 854 adult individuals of both sexes from a Brazilian city. Data were collected through interviews, anthropometric evaluation, and clinical and laboratorial tests. We used multivariate path analysis, which simultaneously analyzes multiple relationships between variables. The analyses were adjusted by sex and age and stratified according to nutritional status. Results: A positive direct effect of visceral adiposity on the UMP was observed for normal weight, standardized estimate (SE) = 0.632; confidence interval (CI 95%) = 0.547, 0.707) and overweight individuals (SE = 0.732; CI 95% = 0.647, 0.808), and negative direct effect of schooling on physical inactivity (normal weight: SE = −0.408; CI 95% = −0.550, −0.265) and overweight (SE = −0.304; CI 95% = −0.479, −0.129). Among normal-weight individuals, there was a positive direct effect (SE = 0.193; CI 95% = 0.059, 0.328) of physical inactivity on VAI. In relation to indirect effects, there was a mediating role of visceral adiposity in the association of schooling level and physical inactivity with the UMP only among normal-weight individuals. Conclusions: Visceral adiposity has a direct effect on the UMP regardless of nutritional status, and there is a mediating effect of VAI on the relationship among schooling, physical inactivity, and UMP in normal-weight individuals.
