“…Low HDL-C levels corresponded to the second most frequent dyslipidemia in the city of Campos dos Goytacazes, and it was significantly greater in males (18.3% vs 8.9%, P<0.001). The mean HDL-C levels were relatively constant (between 48.9 and 47.3 mg/ dL) in individuals older than 30 years, similarly to that which was reported in other population groups 11,40,44 , and more elevated when compared with those of patients with coronary artery disease 22,29 . In the male sex, the mean values remained relatively constant with aging, ranging from 46.8 to 47.7 mg/dL from the third decade onwards.…”

“…North American studies report a prevalence of 18.9% 39 . Nicolau et al reported a prevalence of high lipid levels of 16% in individuals older than 29 years in the city of São José do Rio Preto in 1991 12 , and of 7.9% in individuals older than 20 years in 1997 40 41 reported 18% in a population in the state of Bahia, and Rouquayrol et al 42 reported 6.3% (³ 250 mg/dL) in the city of Fortaleza. The III Brazilian Guidelines on Dyslipidemias mentions a study carried out in 9 Brazilian capitals, which determined a prevalence of 8.8% 43 .…”

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of dyslipidemias in adults in the city of Campos dos Goytacazes, in the Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro, and to identify its relation to risk factors. METHODS: Cross-sectional, population-based, observational study with sampling through conglomerates and stratified according to socioeconomic levels, sex, and age, with 1,039 individuals. Risk factors, familial history, blood pressure, anthropometric measurements, glucose, triglycerides and cholesterol were determined. RESULTS: The following prevalences were observed: of dyslipidemias 24.2%; of hypercholesterolemia, 4.2%; of elevated LDL-C, 3.5%; of low HDL-C, 18.3%; and of hypertriglyceridemia, 17.1%. The following mean levels were observed: cholesterol, 187.6± 33.7 mg/dL; LDL-C, 108.7±26.8 mg/dL; HDL-C, 48.5±7.7 mg/dL; and triglycerides, 150.1±109.8 mg/dL. The following variables showed a positive correlation with dyslipidemia: increased age (P<0.001), male sex (P<0.001), low familial income (P<0.001), familial history (P<0.01), overweight/obesity (P<0.001), waist measure (P<0.001), high blood pressure (P<0.001), and diabetes mellitus (P<0.001). The following variables had no influence on dyslipidemias: ethnicity, educational level, smoking habits, and sedentary lifestyle. CONCLUSION: The frequency of lipid changes in the population studied was high, suggesting that measures for the early diagnosis should be taken, in association with implementation of programs for primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerosis

“…A avaliação do perfil lipídico mostrou que mais de um terço dos motoristas tinha níveis de colesterol nas faixas limítrofe e alta (33% ≥ 200 mg/dL) e para o triglicérides (38% ≥ 150 mg/dL) os dados foram superiores a de outros estudos (27)(28)(29). Estes achados não devem ser considerados isoladamente, pois sua expressividade aumenta quando aliados à média de idade da amostra, evidenciando alteração lipídica precoce.…”

O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar a prevalência da síndrome metabólica e identificar variáveis relacionadas a motoristas profissionais em trânsito na Rodovia BR-116. Foram avaliados 258 motoristas com medida do índice de massa corporal (IMC), circunferência abdominal, pressão arterial, triglicérides, colesterol total e frações e proteína C reativa. Avaliou-se a síndrome metabólica de acordo com a I Diretriz Brasileira de Diagnóstico e Tratamento da Síndrome Metabólica. O nível de significância adotado foi p < 0,05. Foram utilizadas as análises uni e multivariadas. Verificou-se que a idade dos motoristas foi de 37,5 ± 10,1 anos, 82% tinham IMC > 25 kg/m², 58% circunferência abdominal > 94 cm, 9% colesterol total > 240 mg/dL, 10% LDL-c > 160 mg/dL; 23% HDL-c < 40 mg/dL, 22% triglicérides > de 200 mg/dL, 7% glicemia > 110 mg/dL e 19% proteína C reativa > 0,5 mg/dL. A prevalência da hipertensão arterial foi de 37%, 9% apresentaram médio/alto escore de risco de Framingham e 24% com síndrome metabólica. A análise de regressão logística indicou a associação independente da síndrome metabólica para as variáveis: IMC (OR = 1,4007 IC 95% 1,192-1,661), hábito de verificar o colesterol (OR = 0,1020 IC 0,017-0,589) e escore de risco de Framingham (OR = 26,3 IC 2,520-276,374). Verificou-se presença expressiva de fatores de risco cardiovasculares e da síndrome metabólica na população estudada.

“…It is emphasized, however, that the drivers' age was relatively younger, which may evidence early lipid alteration, as a result of their inadequate lifestyle (22)(23) . As for life habits, particularly alcoholic beverage consumption, findings were similar to two Brazilian studies in the same professional group (22)(23)(24) , but higher when compared with population-based studies in the South of Brazil (25) .…”

Objectives:To verify the prevalence of hypertension and obesity among professional freight truck drivers and associate them with studied variables. Methods: It is a cross-sectional study covering a sample of 258 professional freight truck drivers, traveling on the highway BR-116, on the Regis Bittencourt portion, in Sao Paulo state. Results: Drivers were young adults (37.5±10 years), 19% were smokers, 55% reported drinking alcohol, 74% were sedentary, 57% used sleep-inhibiting drugs; they traveled an average of 800 km/day and drove 10 hours/day. The prevalence of hypertension was 37%, 46% were overweight, 36% were obese and 58% had high waist circumference. The logistic regression analysis indicated that hypertension was associated (OD: Odds ratio, CI: confidence interval 95%) with: increased body mass index (OR = 1.183 CI 1.065 to 1.314); blood glucose (OR = 1.039 CI 1.004 to 1.076); and habit of using drugs that inhibit sleep (OR = 0.322 CI 0.129 to 0.801). Conclusion: Among professionals was significant the presence of hypertension, overweight and obesity. Keywords: Risk factors; Obesity; Cardiovascular disease/prevention; control; Occupational health RESUMO Objetivos: Verificar a prevalência de hipertensão arterial e obesidade em motoristas profissionais de transporte de carga e associá-la com variáveis estudadas. Métodos: Estudo transversal abragendo amostra de 258 motoristas profissionais de transporte de cargas que trafegavam pela Rodovia BR-116, no trecho paulista Regis Bittencourt. Resultados: Os motoristas eram adultos jovens (37,5±10 anos), 19% tabagistas, 55% referiram ingestão de bebidas alcoólicas, 74% sedentários, 57% usavam medicamentos inibidores do sono, percorriam em média 800 km/dia e dirigiam 10 horas/dia. A prevalência da hipertensão arterial foi de 37%, 46% tinham sobrepeso, 36% obesidade e 58% circunferência abdominal aumentada. A análise de regressão logística indicou que a hipertensão arterial se associou (OD: Odds ratio, IC: intervalo de confiança a 95%) com: aumento do índice de massa corporal (OR=1,183 IC 1,065-1,314); glicemia (OR=1,039 IC 1,004-1,076); e hábito de ingerir medicamento para inibir o sono (OR= 0,322 IC 0,801). Conclusão: Foi expressiva a presença de hipertensão, sobrepeso e obesidade nesses profissionais. Descritores: Fatores de riscos; Obesidade; Doenças cardiovasculares/prevenção e controle; Saúde ocupacional RESUMEN Objetivos: Verificar la prevalencia de hipertensión arterial y obesidad en choferes profesionales de transporte de carga y asociarla con variables estudiadas.
