Indicadores clínicos e bioquímicos de risco cardiovascular em adultos com transtornos alimentares

Abstract

2 ; 86,4% apresentaram valores de CA normais; 95% com ITB normal, 70% com delta ITB (diferença entre os ITBs) normal; 95,4% com cifras de PA inferiores a 120x80 mmHg, 18,2% com pulso radial inferior a 60 batimentos por minuto; 9,1% com pressão de pulso >50 mmHg. A soma das quatro dobras cutâneas foi de 62,05 ± 19,92 mm, e o percentual de gordura foi de 28,95 ± 5,65; 47,6% classificaram-se como acima da média para o risco de morbidade, devido à alta porcentagem de gordura corporal, de acordo com as dobras cutâneas. Quanto aos exames bioquímicos, 42,1% apresentaram aumento nos níveis do colesterol total; 33,3%, aumento do LDL-C, 10,5%, aumento nos níveis de triglicérides, 18,2%, aumento da homocisteína, 31,8%, aumento do ácido fólico, 4,5%, da PCR e 9,0% estavam com níveis de vitamina B 12 maiores ou menores do que os valores de referência. Houve associação estatisticamente significante para a associação entre o IMC e o diagnóstico de AN e bulimia nervosa, p=0,002. Concluímos que as pessoas com TA apresentaram indicadores clínicos e bioquímicos de risco cardiovascular, devendo ser adotadas medidas e ações preventivas que priorizem a promoção da saúde neste grupo de indivíduos. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study with quantitative approach that aim to find out the clinical and biochemical indicators of cardiovascular risk among people diagnosed with eating disorders (ED). The population was composed of 22 users an outpatient follow-up from two university hospitals located on the countryside and capital of São Paulo during the period from March 2013 to February 2014. The data collection occurred through interview to identify socio-demographic variables such as age, sex, skin color, marital status, education, and family income. The clinical data collected from anthropometric assessment were height, weight, waist circumference (WC), and body mass index (BMI); skinfold-thickness measurement: triceps, biceps, subscapular and suprailiac; indirect measurement of blood pressure (BP) and ankle-brachial index (ABI); body fat percentage. Laboratory examinations were carried out to identify the presence of C-reactive protein (CRP), cholesterol (total or individual components), triglycerides, homocysteine, vitamin B 12 , and folic acid. The data were grouped into categories and the quantitative variables were expressed as median and standard deviation. It was used SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Science), version 16.0 and R i386 version 3.0.0 and the significance level adopted was α=0.05. It was used the Fisher Exact Test for association analysis between BMI classification (eutrophic and low weight) with clinical, anthropometric and biochemical variables. The average age of participants was 28.41 ± 7.51 years, female (95.5%), white (86.4%), not living with a partner (72.7%), students (45.5%), employment relationship (31.9%), bachelor degree in progress or incomplete (31.8%) with average study of 12.45 ± 2.94 years, and family income between three and four minimum wages (59.1%); the medical diagnosis presented t...
