“…However, the population of young adult women has not been considered in the surveys with the same intensity.

Objective: To analyze overweight and associated factors in young adult student girls children in a capital city of Northeast Brazil. Method: An analytical, quantitative study was conducted with 546 young adults from 26 schools in a capital city of the Brazilian Northeast. After obtaining the data by the application of a specific questionnaire, the hierarchical logistic regression was used to identify the confounding variables and predictors of overweight. Results: The frequency of cases of overweight in this group was 36.6%. In the bivariate analysis, Overweight presented a statistically significant association with ethnicity, marital status, weight in childhood and overweight in adolescence, overweight in the family and exposure to alcohol, number of children, and age of menarche. In the final regression model, overweight remained associated with weight in childhood and age of menarche. Conclusion: Characteristics related to nutritional status in earlier life stages and gynecological issues were associated with Overweight during the young adult stage of the woman.

Objetivo: Estratificar o risco cardiovascular de adultos jovens pelo Escore de Risco Framingham (ERF) e relacioná-lo à pressão arterial, dados antropométricos e bioquímicos. Métodos: Estudo quantitativo, realizado com 351 escolares adultos jovens de 12 escolas públicas em Juazeiro do Norte – Ceará, selecionados aleatoriamente, estratificados por escola e turno. Os dados sociodemográficos foram coletados por questionário, seguido da verificação objetiva da pressão arterial e circunferência abdominal (CA). A coleta de material e análise bioquímica, medida de peso e altura, foram realizadas em laboratório contratado. Resultados: Foi constatado ter maioria feminina, mestiça, conciliando estudo e trabalho. Foi pequeno o risco dos adultos jovens pelo ERF, porém, estatisticamente significativo, entre ERF e pressão arterial diastólica, CA, índice de massa corporal e colesteróis HDL, LDL e triglicerídeos. Conclusão: Quantificar riscos cardiovasculares em adultos jovens pode subsidiar ações de enfermagem relevantes na promoção da saúde cardiovascular.
