“…That way, it is necessary to study the factors associated with weight changes, so that it shall be possible to significantly intervene in the potential future impacts to the health of the population. As far as we know, there are data on how the quarantine period affected eating behavior and weight gain ( 12 ), and physical activity ( 13 ) among a Brazilian sample. However, there is no more comprehensive data on predictors of weight gain.…”

Introduction and AimsThe behavioral changes that arose from quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic may have impacted the weight of people. This study aims to investigate the incidence and predictors of weight gain during the quarantine period.MethodsAn online survey was performed five months after the social distance measures implementation. Participants recorded their current and usual weight before lockdown. A multivariate logistic regression model was performed.ResultsData on 1334 participants were evaluated (33.6y, 79.8% females), and 58.8% have gained weight (3.0 kg; 0.1 to 30.0 kg). Predictors of weight gain were increased food intake (OR = 5.40); snacking (OR = 2.86); fast food (OR = 1.11); canned products (OR = 1.08); and in physical activity (OR = 0.99) concerning the period before the pandemic; also time spent at work, including household chores (OR = 1.58); evening snack (OR = 1.54); higher frequency of alcoholic beverage intake (OR = 1.59) and dose of alcoholic beverage (OR = 1.11); uncontrolled eating (OR = 1.01), and vegetable intake (OR = 0.92) during the quarantine and physical activity before pandemic period (OR = 0.99).ConclusionMost participants have gained weight during the pandemic because of working changes, lifestyle, eating habits changes, and uncontrolled eating behavior. These results can be useful to encourage changes during future quarantine periods to prevent weight gain.

“…Given this, it appears that among nursing students, 77% (n=40) of the sample reported having one or more symptoms related to mental aspects. Noting that the pandemic generated significant impacts on the physical and mental health of individuals, which can cause feelings of fear, anxiety, uncertainty and concern (Verticchio et al, 2020). Allied to this, it is known that the mind can directly influence the usual diet by regulating serotonin concentrations, generating comfort and acting as a way to treat the stress experienced (Totorra & Derrickson, 2012).…”

The context of the pandemic and the implementation of the remote teaching model brought changes to the usual lifestyle of most students. And in this way, inadequate eating behavior made nursing students susceptible to psychological eating disorders. Objective: to analyze the influence of remote teaching on the prevalence of the development of eating disorders (EDs) associated with image distortion in nursing students during the pandemic. Methodology: This is an observational, cross-sectional quantitative study with university students of the nursing course at the University of Pernambuco, located in the city of Petrolina, who were interviewed voluntarily in person. Eating behavior and image distortion were investigated using the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) and Silhouette Matching Task (STM) instruments, respectively. In addition, other data were collected from a sociodemographic questionnaire to verify the profile of the participants. Results: It was found that 92% of the evaluated students changed their eating habits after the pandemic, the majority being female. And that 48% of the students had positive results for the risk of developing ATs, and of these, 91% claim an increase in the frequency of key AT behaviors after experiencing remote teaching. Furthermore, it was observed that 85% of university students in the nursing course had alterations in their perception of body image. Conclusion: The statistical observational analysis carried out demonstrates that remote teaching implemented during the stress phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, influenced the increased risk of developing EDs and body dissatisfaction in students, reaffirming the need for preventive measures and awareness regarding the adoption of new teaching models. This emphasizes the importance of further studies on this issue.

A COVID-19, doença causada pelo novo coronavírus foi descoberta em novembro de 2019, na cidade de Wuhan, China. Com a expansão da doença e o seu caráter pandêmico, aumentaram os agravos à saúde, bem como os impactos na saúde mental da população global, gerando a necessidade de acompanhamento psicológico. O objetivo do estudo foi analisar os impactos psicológicos em adultos causados pela pandemia de COVID-19. Foi realizada uma revisão integrativa da literatura, a partir de artigos primários oriundos das bases de dados Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SCIELO) e Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS). Foram encontrados 18 artigos relacionados ao tema. Os dados apresentados neste estudo reforçam a teoria de que a pandemia de COVID-19 provocou mudanças significativas na vida dos adultos, principalmente no que se refere aos impactos psicológicos diagnosticados, as mudanças no estilo de vida e a repercussão nos sentimentos das pessoas, bem como a autopercepção em relação à saúde mental durante a pandemia. Com o estudo, concluiu-se que os impactos psicológicos mais comuns durante a pandemia foram ansiedade, depressão e estresse. Os sentimentos mais evidentes foram medo, tristeza e preocupação com adoecimento por COVID-19, provocando alterações do sono, diminuição das atividades físicas e aumento no consumo de alimentos industrializados.
