“…Acta Scientiarum. Health Sciences, v. 46, e64777, 2024 Cardiovascular risk factors are increasingly present in the population (Xavier et al, 2013;Queiroz et al, 2021). It is noteworthy that from the age of 40, the subjects already had a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and that it increased with advancing age.…”

To evaluate the prevalence of abdominal obesity, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia and its associated factors in adults in a low income region. Cross-sectional, population-based study with probabilistic sample representative of a region of the Brazilian Northeast. Abdominal obesity was determined by waist circumference ≥ 80cm for women and ≥ 94cm for men. The classification considered for hypercholesterolemia was cholesterol ≥ 240mgdL-1 and for hypertriglyceridemia, triglycerides ≥ 200mgdL-1. The Poisson regression analysis evaluated the association between abdominal obesity, serum lipid changes and explanatory variables. A number of 260 adults, of the economic level C and D/E (≅96%) were evaluated. The prevalence of abdominal obesity, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia were 71.5, 21.2 and 26.9%, respectively. There was an association between abdominal obesity and female gender, age 50-59 years, overweight, and brown/black race was related as a protection factor. Hypercholesterolemia, was associated with subjects aged 50-59 years and ≥ 60 years, and hypertriglyceridemia was associated with overweight, aged ≥ 40years and smoker individuals. High prevalence of abdominal obesity, hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia were found. From the age of 40 the subjects already had a risk factor for hypertriglyceridemia and 50 years for hypercholesterolemia and abdominal obesity. Abdominal obesity was also associated with overweight female individuals, and the brown/black race was connected to a protective factor. Smoking and overweight were associated with hypertriglyceridemia.

“…Como se puede apreciar fue más frecuente la obesidad abdominal en el sexo femenino, que en el masculino, resultados que coinciden con otro estudio realizado en Brasil, probablemente asociado a la ocurrencia de desregulación hormonal más frecuente en el sexo femenino 14 ; si se toma en cuenta que más del 80% de las mujeres en nuestro estudio se encuentran en un rango de edad entre 31 y 60 años coincidentemente en el período menopáusico, donde se conoce que la disminución de estrógenos condiciona el incremento de grasa abdominal y corporal de manera general 15 .…”

Eating habits constitute cultural patterns inherited from families, distinctive elements that identify people. The objective of this study was to determine the effects produced by anthropometric measurements in people who attended a nutritional clinic in the city of Guayaquil, Ecuador. A cross-sectional study was carried out between November 2021 and February 2022. The normality of the variables was determined with the Shapiro-Wilks statistical test, and then the T student was calculated for dependent samples to assess the effect of the diet. In the aforementioned anthropometric parameters before and after the intervention. To evaluate the impact of the diet by sex, the T student was performed for independent samples. The results showed statistically significant differences in body mass index, abdominal circumference and muscle mass but not in fat percentage. In contrast, concerning sex, only a statistically significant difference was evidenced in muscle mass. The Mediterranean diet showed positive results in the body composition indicators evaluated, decreasing the BMI, the percentage of fat, and the abdominal circumference while favoring the increase in muscle mass. Keywords: Mediterranean Diet; body composition, obesity
