“…In this way, knowledge about the costs attributable to diseases can support the improvement and prioritization of policies for preventing and coping with CNCDs, in addition to strengthening the defense of more robust interventions for the prevention of these diseases, including fiscal and regulatory measures, thus adding obesity to these comorbidities allows a more complete estimate of the economic impact of obesity on the SUS (Figueiredo et al, 2021). Therefore, it is of paramount importance that further studies cover the subject, mainly with the aim of increasing sensitivity for public management, revealing the areas with higher expenses and helping to identify the areas that require more interventions and preventive measures against obesity.…”

“…Allied to this, it is notorious that the pathophysiology of obesity corroborates later comorbidities, such as systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders and dyslipidemia (Oliveira et al, 2015). Allied to this, chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) represent a great burden for the public health system in Brazil, given that they are one of the main causes of death and illness in the population, and, in this sense, due to their negative effects direct effects on health, added to the indirect effects resulting from associated chronic diseases, obesity represents a double burden for health systems (Figueiredo et al, 2021;Guh et al, 2009).…”

Introduction: The higher the body mass index (BMI) of a patient, the greater the risk of the patient developing obesity-related diseases. Likewise, the severity of obesity and related diseases increases as BMI increases. Objective: to assess the costs of obesity and related diseases in Brazil from the perspective of society and health systems, in view of the analysis of estimated costs attributable to this main pathology, considering the costs of outpatient procedures, medicines distributed by the SUS to treat the disease and request of examination. Methodology: analytical observational approach developed at the Itamarati Basic Health Unit, located in the Jardim Itamarati neighborhood, in the city of Patos de Minas, Minas Gerais, using data from the Viver Platform, physical records and DATASUS. Results and discussion: given the results of this study and others cited here, it is noted that, considering obesity as a risk factor for hypertension and diabetes separately, the costs attributable to this disease are high, and the estimates of costs attributable to the main Chronic diseases associated with inadequate nutrition show the great economic burden of these diseases for the SUS. The data show the need to prioritize integrated and intersectoral policies for the prevention and control of hypertension, diabetes and obesity. Conclusion: Obesity imposes a high cost to the health of people and public administration. Thus, by understanding the pathophysiology of obesity, it will allow healthcare providers to better manage the set of diseases supported by this main pathology that affect an individual.

“…Dessa maneira, o conhecimento acerca dos custos atribuíveis a doenças pode subsidiar o aprimoramento e a priorização das políticas de prevenção e enfrentamento das DCNTs, além de fortalecer a defesa de intervenções mais robustas para prevenção dessas doenças, inclusive medidas fiscais e regulatórias, assim, agregar a obesidade a essas comorbidades permite uma estimativa mais completa do impacto econômico da obesidade no SUS (Figueiredo et al 2021). Portanto, é de suma importância que estudos posteriores abranjam a temática, principalmente com o intuito de aumentar a sensibilidade para a gestão pública, revelar as áreas com maiores despesas e ajudar na identificação das áreas que requerem mais intervenções e medidas preventivas contra a obesidade.…”

“…Aliado a isso, é notório que a fisiopatologia da obesidade corrobora comorbidades posteriores, como a hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS), diabetes mellitus, distúrbios tireoidianos e dislipidemias (Oliveira et al 2015). Aliado a isso, as doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNTs) representam uma grande carga para o sistema público de saúde do Brasil, haja vista que são uma das principais causas de morte e de adoecimento da população, e, nesse sentido, devido seus efeitos negativos diretos na saúde, somados aos efeitos indiretos resultantes de doenças crônicas associadas, a obesidade representa uma carga dupla para os sistemas de saúde (Figueiredo et al 2021).…”

Introdução: Quanto maior o índice de massa corporal (IMC) de um paciente, maior se torna o risco de o paciente desenvolver doenças relacionadas à obesidade. Da mesma forma, a gravidade da obesidade e doenças relacionadas aumenta à medida que o IMC aumenta. Objetivo: avaliar os custos da obesidade e doenças relacionadas no Brasil na perspectiva da sociedade e dos sistemas de saúde, perante análise de estimativa dos custos atribuíveis a essa patologia principal, considerando custos de procedimentos ambulatoriais, medicamentos distribuídos pelo SUS para tratamento da doença e solicitação de exame. Metodologia: abordagem observacional analítica desenvolvido na Unidade Básica de Saúde Itamarati, localizada no bairro Jardim Itamarati, na cidade de Patos de Minas, Minas Gerais, sob dados da Plataforma Viver, prontuários físicos e DATASUS. Resultados e discussão: perante resultados deste estudo e dos outros aqui citados, nota-se que, considerando separadamente a obesidade como fator de risco para hipertensão e diabetes, os custos atribuíveis a essa doença são altos, e as estimativas dos custos atribuíveis às principais doenças crônicas associadas à alimentação inadequada evidenciam a grande carga econômica dessas doenças para o SUS. Os dados mostram a necessidade de priorizar políticas integradas e intersetoriais para a prevenção e o controle da hipertensão, do diabetes e da obesidade. Conclusão: A obesidade impõe um custo alto à saúde das pessoas e da administração pública. Desse modo, ao compreender a fisiopatologia da obesidade, permitirá que os provedores em saúde gerenciem melhor o conjunto de doenças corroboradas por essa patologia principal que afetam um indivíduo.

Temporal Trend of Severe Obesity in Brazilian State Capitals (2006–2021)

et al. 2023

The aim of this study was to analyze the trend of severe obesity in the capitals of the Brazilian states and the Federal District, from 2006 to 2021. For this purpose, a time-series, population-based, observational study was designed using data from the VIGITEL Survey. The dependent variable of this study was the prevalence of severe obesity, which was defined as a body mass index ≥ 40 kg/m2. Time series analysis was conducted using Joinpoint Regression Analysis Software v.4.9.1.0. In this study, a normal distribution was assumed, and the average annual percentage change (AAPC) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were presented. In total, 778,445 individuals participated in the study (38.2% were male and 61.8% were female). The prevalence of severe obesity has increased from 1.1% in 2006 to 1.9% in 2021. The average annual percentage change indicates an upward trend for the period (AAPC: 4.7; 95% CI: 3.8; 5.7). When stratifying the trend of severe obesity by sex, a significant upward trend was observed for females (AAPC: 4.3; 95% CI: 1.9; 6.8). There was a significant upward trend for all age groups, skin colors, and education levels. However, the older age groups and those with less education had lower AAPC.
