“…20 However, this was well above that reported in other studies assessing the prevalence and determinants of overweight among children and adolescents in the Brazilian state of Pernambuco, where the mean was four years of study for mothers. 21 In our case, the time of formal education can be considered as relatively positive, given that we studied a low--income group, which creates the expectation of lower educational levels.…”

“…Dentre os fatores de risco para as DCNT, nos últimos 30 anos, tem se destacado o excesso de peso, de maneira que, para um mesmo grupo etário, as taxas de mortes são maiores entre pessoas obesas, existindo assim uma grande associação entre excesso de gordura no corpo e doenças respiratórias, cardiovasculares e articulares, por exemplo (16) . Estudos realizados com trabalhadores brasileiros apresentaram resultados diversos, constatando-se níveis normais de IMC e PA (17) , níveis normais somente de PA (18) e alta prevalência de PA elevado e de níveis de obesidade (19,20) , principalmente entre homens.…”
