Phase angle and World Health Organization criteria for the assessment of nutritional status in children with osteogenesis imperfecta

Abstract: Objective:To compare the phase angle of patients with osteogenesis imperfecta treated at a tertiary university hospital with patients in a control group of healthy children, and to assess the nutritional status of these patients through the body mass index proposed by the World Health Organization.Methods:Cross-sectional study carried out in a university hospital that included seven patients with osteogenesis imperfecta and a control group of 17 healthy children of the same gender and age. Weight and height we… Show more

“…In our study, we observed lower values of 3.0° and 2.4° for G1 and G2, respectively. These values were also lower than the average value reported in a study of seven children with osteogenesis imperfecta, who presented PA values of 4.8° (25). When the data were distributed by age group, lower PA values were observed in adolescents than in children, emphasizing a significant negative correlation between age and PA values.…”

“…PA has also been described as a sensitive and useful tool to detect changes in nutritional status in addition to being associated with the clinical prognosis of several diseases [4,5]. Pileggi et al [8] concluded that PA is a useful tool for detecting nutritional risk in children with osteogenesis imperfecta.…”

“…Estudos vêm demostrando a ação do AF como indicador do estado nutricional nessa população, baixos valores de AF indicariam risco nutricional mesmo com IMC compatível com eutrofia. Alterações em nível celular ocorrem à frente das alterações teciduais, detectáveis pelos métodos antropométricos tradicionais, evidenciando a relevância do AF na prática clínica como instrumento de triagem e indicador de prognóstico 15,16 .…”
