“…Regarding the location parameters, in the intermediate category, the item 'Cereals and tubers' presented the lowest value, demonstrating that the adolescents did not need to have a high energy intake to eat one portion of this food group. This may be explained by Brazil's dietary patterns, which are rich in rice during two meals a day, and other food items that comprise this group for breakfast [33][34][35][36]. The highest value in the intermediate category belonged to the alcoholic beverages, which is consistent with the low caloric contribution from the food items in this group [37,38], therefore requiring higher energy intake to endorse its consumption.…”

Background: Traditional methods for assessing individual energy consumption often involve lengthy and intricate procedures. This study aims to introduce an Energy Consumption Estimation Scale, utilizing Item Response Theory (IRT) for adolescents aged 18–19 years. Methods: This psychometric investigation applies IRT to 93 items extracted from a validated food frequency questionnaire. The study encompasses a representative sample of 2515 adolescents from the São Luís birth cohort in Brazil. The latent trait, energy intake, is derived using IRT and subsequently validated through hierarchical multiple linear regression modeling. Significance was established at p < 0.05. Results: A Samejima’s model was successfully fitted (CFI and TLI > 0.9 and RMSEA < 0.08), effectively capturing variations across all energy consumption levels. Factors associated with the latent trait demonstrate consistent behavioral patterns. Adolescents with higher energy intake exhibited increased consumption of dairy products, artificially sweetened beverages, and seasonal fruits and vegetables. Conclusions: The proposed Energy Consumption Estimation Scale demonstrates a reliable measurement of energy intake and serves as a practical and concise alternative for assessing energy consumption among adolescents. These findings suggest the potential for adapting similar models for different age groups and incorporating diverse food items based on the obtained results.

“…A total of 12 of these publications were observational studies examining the relationship of pasta intake to body weight or body composition outcomes [ 4 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ]. An additional 15 publications were observational studies evaluating the impact of dietary patterns with varying amounts of pasta on body weight or body composition outcomes [ 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 ]. One clinical trial was identified that evaluated the effect of varying pasta intake on body weight outcomes [ 41 ].…”

“…Dietary patterns reported in the literature were very diverse, although most dietary patterns higher in pasta were also higher in vegetables, fruits, rice, dairy, and fish than other dietary patterns ( Figure 1 ). Seven studies reported an inverse relationship of dietary patterns high in pasta with body weight or body composition outcomes [ 28 , 30 , 32 , 33 , 36 , 39 , 40 ]; however, four of these studies included mixed results for different outcomes [ 33 , 36 , 39 , 40 ] ( Table 2 ). Five studies reported no associations of dietary patterns high in pasta with body weight or body composition [ 26 , 27 , 29 , 31 , 37 ], while three reported only positive associations [ 34 , 35 , 38 ].…”

“…Dietary patterns high in pasta were generally not associated with odds of overweight or obesity [ 27 , 37 ] or were inversely associated [ 28 , 30 ]. One study in Mexican adults reported greater odds of overweight or obesity in individuals consuming a diverse dietary pattern (whole-fat dairy, rice and pasta, meat, poultry, eggs, saturated fat, fruits, and vegetables) compared to a traditional diet (low dietary diversity, maize and maize foods ~50% of energy intake, beans), despite significantly lower energy intake and improved nutrient intake with the diverse diet [ 35 ].…”

Impact of Pasta Intake on Body Weight and Body Composition: A Technical Review

Pasta is a staple carbohydrate across many cultures but has been implicated in overweight and obesity due to its position as a refined carbohydrate. Yet, the unique structure of pasta and its low glycemic response suggest it may contribute to a healthy body weight. The purpose of this review is to summarize the literature on the effects of pasta and dietary patterns high in pasta on body weight and body composition outcomes, and evaluate potential mechanisms by which pasta may influence body weight. A search of PubMed and CENTRAL identified 38 relevant studies examining pasta intake and body weight outcomes or potential mechanisms. Observational studies generally report no association or an inverse association of pasta intake with body weight/body composition outcomes. One clinical trial reported no difference in weight loss between a hypocaloric diet with high intake vs. low intake of pasta. Pasta may influence body weight via its low glycemic response, but evidence of effects on appetite, appetite-related hormones, and gastric emptying is limited and inconclusive. In conclusion, observational and limited clinical data suggest pasta is either inversely or not associated with overweight or obesity in healthy children and adults, and does not contribute to weight gain within the context of a healthy diet.

“…The increasing prevalence of obese children is becoming greater and is related to multiple factors, such as early interruption of breastfeeding, behavioral disorders related to food and family relationships, lifestyle, and improper eating habits. This is due to the availability of a variety of products in the market, which are easily accessible and low cost, but have high caloric values and low nutritional value [5,24].…”

Objetivo: Identificar, por meio de uma revisão de literatura, o impacto na saúde do indivíduo em consequência da obesidade infantil, seus impactos durante as fases da vida, descrevendo quais as complicações e apresentando os riscos para a saúde das crianças em decorrência dos maus hábitos alimentares. Métodos: Para elaboração da pesquisa, foram analisados periódicos de revistas científicas e artigos científicos, tendo como base de dados PubMed, Scielo e Google Acadêmico, sobre o tema. A busca foi limitada à língua inglesa e portuguesa, e os artigos analisados foram selecionados por apresentarem grande relevância sobre o tema. Resultados: Observou-se que crianças com sobrepeso e obesidade apresentam maiores probabilidades de virem a desenvolver várias doenças na infância, repercutindo ao longo da vida, reduzindo a qualidade e expectativa de vida. Baixa renda, genética, a falta de exercícios físicos, maus hábitos alimentares e problemas socioeconômicos são os principais fatores que colaboram para o aumento da obesidade infantil. Conclusão: Estratégias de promoção de saúde que mais surtem efeitos são melhoras dos hábitos de vida, como, alimentação saudável e da prática de atividades físicas.
