“…[29][30] The same trend was observed in Pernambuco, where excess weight was significantly higher among children and adolescents from families with a higher income and a better socioeconomic level. 25,31 In the South of the country, in Santa Catarina, the results found in a study of students enrolled in the public and private networks were similar to our research, as a significant association was identified between excess weight and income. 32 Although physical exercise was not associated with overweight in this study, research shows that a higher family income can provide greater access to consumption goods that stimulate sedentariness, like the computer.…”

“…24 In Pernambuco, in a study involving children and adolescents, using the information available in the Pesquisa Estadual de Saúde e Nutrição (PESN) [State Research of Health and Nutrition] as the data source, in 2006, the prevalence rate of overweight observed was 13.3%. 25 In addition, in a multicenter research that assessed the nutritional status of school-aged children from the Northeast and Southeast of Brazil identified a prevalence rate of 9.5% of overweight. 26 Despite the variations in the prevalence levels of overweight and obesity in the studies indicated, the magnitude of the problems among the school-aged children in our study is clear, as the prevalence of excess weight found is high and demonstrates the need for education and health professionals, families and governments in general to pay attention.…”

ABSTRACT:To assess the factors associated with excess weight (overweight/obese) in school children enrolled in the public education network in Divinópolis, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Cross-sectional study with 1187 children between 6 and 14 years of age from municipal schools in Divinópolis, Minas Gerais. The prevalence of obesity and overweight was calculated based on the parameters of the World Health Organization, using the WHO Anthro-Plus Program. Logistic regression was used to identify the variables associated with excess weight, at a significance level of 5%. A prevalence of 24.4% of excess weight was identified. Family income and maternal education were determinants of overweight in the study population (p<0.05). Excess weight was configured as an important health problem among the students. The public power needs to implement intersectoral measures with a view to the prevention and reduction of the prevalence of overweight and obesity among school-aged children. DESCRIPTORS:Obesity.

Regressão logística foi usada para identificação das variáveis associadas ao excesso de peso, considerando um nível de significância de 5%. Foi identificada prevalência de 24,4% de excesso de peso. Renda familiar e escolaridade materna foram determinantes do excesso de peso na população do estudo (p<0,05). O excesso de peso configurou-se como importante problema de saúde entre os escolares.

HOBOLD, E.; ARRUDA, M. de. Prevalência de sobrepeso e obesidade de crianças e adolescentes no Brasil: uma revisão sistemática. Arq. Cienc. Saúde UNIPAR, Umuarama, v. 18, n. 3, p, 189-197, set/dez. 2014. RESUMO:O objetivo deste estudo foi revisar as pesquisas de prevalência de sobrepeso e obesidade em crianças e adolescentes brasileiros. Foi realizado a busca eletrônica de artigos nas bases de dados Scielo, PubMed, MedLine e LILACS e na Biblioteca Eletrônica Bireme. Para efeito deste estudo, foram selecionadas as publicações de 2003 a 2013. Foram analisados 59 estudos que atenderam aos critérios de inclusão estabelecidos pelos autores. A maioria dos estudos foram desenvolvidos nas regiões Sul e Sudeste (71,2%), com uma amostragem bem diversificada que variou de 328 a 79,6795 sujeitos. O Índice de Massa Corporal -IMC foi o protocolo mais utilizado (93,2%) e o critério de classificação de sobrepeso/obesidade sugerido pela International Obesity Task Force -IOTF foi amplamente utilizado nos estudos (52,5%). A prevalência de sobrepeso/obesidade oscilou de 7,4% a 36,5%, com mais de 70% dos estudos com prevalência de sobrepeso/ obesidade superior a 20%, sendo mais elevada nos rapazes. Apesar das diferenças metodológicas, a maioria dos estudos com crianças e adolescentes brasileiros apresentou valores bastante elevados de prevalência de sobrepeso/obesidade sugerindo um constante crescimento deste problema em nosso país. PALAVRAS-CHAVES: Sobrepeso; Obesidade; Crianças; Adolescentes; Revisão Sistemática. PREVALENCE OF OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS IN BRAZIL: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEWABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to review the research into the prevalence of overweight/obesity among Brazilian children and adolescents. An electronic search was conducted for articles in the Scielo, PubMed, MedLine and LILACS and Bireme Electronic Library databases. For this study, publications from 2003 to 2013 were selected. A total of 59 studies that met the inclusion criteria set by the authors were analyzed. Most of the studies were performed in the South and Southeast (71.2%) regions, with a well diversified sampling ranging from 328 to 79,795 subjects. The Body Mass Index -BMI was the most frequently used protocol (93.2%) and the criterion for overweight/obesity classification suggested by the International Obesity Task Force -IOTF was widely used in the studies (52.5%). The overweight/obesity prevalence ranged from 7.4% to 36.5%, with more than 70% of studies with overweight/obesity prevalence greater than 20%, being higher in boys. Despite the methodological differences, most studies on Brazilian children and adolescents presented very high values of overweight/ obesity prevalence, suggesting constant growth of this issue in our country.

“…This nutritional profile has been related to various determinants, especially those related to lifestyle, such as sedentary lifestyle (mainly due to time spent before the TV and/or the computer, to the detriment of the regular practice of physical exercise) and inadequate eating habits (especially the high consumption of manufactured foodstuffs and fast foods) 36 . These habits are at times influenced by the family atmosphere, where they should be regarded as problematic, so that healthier attitudes may be adopted with a view to changing the lifestyle.…”

OBJECTIVE:To describe the nutritional situation of children under five years old resident in three cities of Brazil's northeastern region. METHODS: A transversal epidemiological study was undertaken with the participation of 1,378 children. The anthropometric measurements height/age, weight/age and weight/height were calculated in terms of the Z score. Children's growth curves of the World Health Organization were used as reference. RESULTS: Higher proportions were found of overweight/ height (8.3% in Barra de São Miguel, 10.3% in Cabedelo and 5.9% in Tibau do Sul) than of deficit (1.5% in Barra de São Miguel, 1.9% in Cabedelo and 0.9% in Tibau do Sul). A higher prevalence of the height deficit was observed (5.9% in Barra de São Miguel, 5.5% in Cabedelo and 4.6% in Tibau do Sul) than of the weight deficit (3.6% in Barra de São Miguel, 2.5 % in Cabedelo and 1.5% in Tibau do Sul). CONCLUSION: The nutritional status of the group studied was unfavorable. Actions to promote adequate eating habits within the context of food and nutrition programs and policies should, therefore, be prioritized. The high prevalence of height deficit and overweight highlights the vulnerability of this group and the sum of the necessary actions should produce an impact by reversing this nutritional profile.
