“…In Mexico, there are reports of a high frequency of obesity in children population, it could be explained due to sport programs in elementary schools does not exist and the little that exists, it is directed to masculine sex, being less opportunities of sport for women. 22 The insulin is the main regulator of the homeostasis of glucose and lipids, the association of obesity with insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) is closed related, so the risk of cardiovascular disease not only is related to the obesity degree, but it depends on the distribution of the fat in the human body. 23 Obesity in children and adolescents represents an important risk factor for IR, independent of sex, age, or race/ethnicity.…”

Aim: To determine the association among dental caries, obesity and insulin resistance in Mexican adolescents.Methods: Body Mass Index, obesity (OB) blood pressure, insulin level, insulin resistance (IR), triglycerides level, serum HDL-cholesterol (cHDL), DMFT index and salivary flow were measured. Results:Anthropometric measures showed a significant statistical difference (p < 0.05). Insulin level was 8.98 for healthy subjects, whereas for OB-IR group was 25.35, there was a statistical significant difference (p <0.05). Triglycerides level was 88.50 for healthy subjects and 169.40 mg/dL for OB-IR; cHDL was 52.88 for healthy and 41.82 mg/dL for OB-IR group, both showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). Salivary flow was 4.30 for healthy and for OB-IR group was 5.48 ml/min showed a significant statistical difference(p < 0.05). DMFT index was 3.02 for healthy and for OB-IR adolescents was 4.78, showed a significant statistical difference (p < 0.05). The caries component of DMFT index was 1.84 for healthy and was 3.52 for OB-IR adolescents, showed a significant statistical difference (p < 0.05). According to the multivariate analysis, DMFT (OR=3.10; IC95%=0.20-1.02, p=0.042) and decay (OR=3.30; IC95%=0.19-1.0,p=0.011) were associated with subjects with OB-IR. Conlusion: OB-IR Mexican adolescents showed a positive association with DMFT.

“…The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in children and adolescents is associated with obesity 2,3 and increased serum insulin levels 4 . Diagnosis and treatment of metabolic syndrome are important in pediatric populations because obesity-related problems may appear early in childhood and persist into adulthood 3 , with high levels of morbidity and mortality 5 .…”

“…In addition, these studies have not used clear criteria to diagnose metabolic syndrome. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in children has been diagnosed using criteria designed for adults [2][3][4][15][16][17][18] and are generally based on the presence of three or more chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, arterial hypertension, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Taking these adult-based criteria, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome may reach more than 50% in a severely obese pediatric population 2,14 because obesity is closely related to all these risk factors.…”

Objectives: To analyze the effects of physical exercise and nutritional guidance on body composition, physical fitness, lipid profile and insulin resistance among obese adolescents with and without metabolic syndrome. Methods: Sixty-four obese adolescents (26 boys), 10-16 years of age, were divided into two groups: with metabolic syndrome (n=29) and without metabolic syndrome (n=35). They were classified as having metabolic syndrome if they met three or more criteria for age and sex according to the Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III). Blood pressure, waist circumference, maximum oxygen uptake (VO 2peak ), blood glucose, blood insulin, homeostatic model assessment (HOMA-IR), quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) and lipid profile were assessed at baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention. Both groups participated in 12 weeks of physical education and two nutritional guidance sessions. Each physical education session consisted of 50 min indoor cycling, 50 min of walking/running and 20 min of stretching, three times a week. Results:Fifty-five participants (with metabolic syndrome=25; without metabolic syndrome=30) completed the treatment. After 12 weeks, both groups showed reductions in body weight, BMI z-score, waist circumference, fat mass and triglycerides; and increases in height, HDL-C and VO 2peak (p<0.05). In addition, the group with metabolic syndrome presented reduced systolic blood pressure and increased insulin sensitivity (p<0.05). The risk factors for metabolic syndrome decreased by 72%. Conclusion: Following the multidisciplinary intervention, the risk factors decreased, with improvements in physical fitness and metabolic profile. The multidisciplinary intervention was effective in reducing metabolic syndrome.Key words: cardiovascular diseases; physical exercise; obesity. ResumoObjetivos: Analisar os efeitos de exercícios físicos (EF) e orientação nutricional (ON) sobre a composição corporal, aptidão física, perfil lipídico e resistência insulínica em adolescentes obesos com e sem síndrome metabólica (SM). Métodos: 64 obesos (26 meninos), com idade entre 10 a 16 anos, divididos em dois grupos: com SM (n=29) e sem SM (n=35). Utilizou-se como critério de classificação de SM a presença de três ou mais critérios para idade e sexo de acordo com Adult Treatment Panel III (ATP III). Mensuraram-se antes e após 12 semanas de intervenção: pressão arterial, circunferência abdominal, consumo máximo de oxigênio (VO2 pico ), glicemia, insulinemia, (HOMA-IR), Quantitative Insulin Sensitivity Check Index (QUICKI) e perfil lipídico. Os dois grupos participaram de 12 semanas de EF e duas sessões de ON. Cada sessão de EF consistiu em 50 minutos de ciclismo indoor, 50 minutos de caminhada e 20 minutos de alongamento, três vezes por semana. Resultados: 55 sujeitos (com SM=25; sem SM=30) completaram o tratamento. Após 12 semanas, houve diminuição na massa corporal, IMC escore-z, circunferência abdominal, massa gorda, TG e aumento na estatura, HDL-C e VO2 pico , em ambos os grupos. Além disso, hou...

The present study aimed to review the literature on the prevalence of metabolic syndrome and its components in adolescents (10-19 years old). The search was conducted in online databases (MED-LINE and SciELO) IntroduçãoA síndrome metabólica é um transtorno representado por um conjunto de fatores de risco cardiovasculares, tais como hipertensão arterial, deposição central de gordura, dislipidemia (LDLcolesterol e triglicérides elevados e, HDL-colesterol reduzido) e resistência à insulina 1 . Essa sín-drome foi identificada pela primeira vez em 1922 e tem sido descrita por diferentes terminologias como quarteto mortal, síndrome X, síndrome plurimetabólica e síndrome de resistência à insulina 2 .A ocorrência da síndrome metabólica em crianças e adolescentes está associada a risco aumentado de doenças cardiovasculares, problemas psicossociais, metabolismo anormal de glicose, distúrbios hepáticos e gastrintestinais, apnéia do sono, complicações ortopédicas 3 e distúrbios no desenvolvimento motor 4 . Além disso, a síndrome metabólica adquirida na juventude, assim como seus riscos à saúde, tende a persistir na idade adulta 3 .Os critérios diagnósticos da síndrome metabólica mais utilizados são os da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) 5 e os do National Cholesterol Education Program's Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATP III) 6 , e algumas diferenças entre eles são observadas. A definição da OMS requer a avaliação da resistência à insulina ou do distúrbio do metabolismo da glicose. Por outro lado, a definição da NCEP-ATP III não REVISÃO REVIEW
