“…La RCE se utilizó para estimar la acumulación de grasa en la zona central del cuerpo, se obtiene al dividir el perímetro de cintura por la estatura. Una razón mayor o igual a 0,55 indicaría un mayor riesgo cardiometabólico (RCM) (14).…”

Introduction: Low levels of moderate and vigorous physical activity are a factor of important behavioral risk in the obesity in children. Objective: The objective of this study was to determine the nutritional status and physical condition of students, by comparing the results obtained by gender, obesity, and physical performance. Material and methods: 578 students; 308 men of 11.22 ± 1.93 years and 270 women of 10.93 ± 1.92 years, participated in the investigation. Were evaluated; body mass index (BMI), percentage body fat (%FM), contour waist (CW), waist-to-height ratio (wtHR) and physical performance according to the test of the National Study of Physical Education of the Agency of Quality of Education of Chile. Results: The %FM was higher in women (p < 0.001). In the Test of abdominal and Navette performance was higher in men and in the test of fl exo-extensions of arm performance was higher in women (p < 0.05). Category of obese schoolchildren showed lower results in the test: abdominal, long jump, fl exo-extensions of arm and Navette (p < 0.001). The VO2 MAX was lower in the overweight subjects (p < 0.001). The students who need to improve 3 or 4 test presented more wtHR (p < 0.001) and %FM (p < 0.001). There is a negative association between the wtHR and the VO2 MAX (-0.543, p < 0.001).Conclusions: There exists a high predominance of excess weight and obesity, also it is appreciated a low physical performance associated with this condition. The students, who need to improve 3 or 4 test of physical condition, have a higher average of %FM and wtHR, this last variable is a powerful indicator of cardiovascular risk.

“…Este valor también sería aplicable en pediatría 7,8 . Un estudio que lo aplicó en escolares chilenos demostró que el punto de corte de 0,55 era capaz de detectar con 71,6% de sensibilidad y 70,2% de especificidad la presencia de SM 9 . No sólo los niños obesos sino también los niños con sobrepeso pueden variar en su grasa abdominal y presentar factores de riesgo cardiometabólicos y la RCE también es capaz de especificar el riesgo en este grupo 10 .…”

“…In the WC evaluation (Table I), the sample presented values of (76.24 cm), being these higher than those reported for Portuguese students (WC 73.11 cm) (Minghelli, Nunes, & Oliveira, 2013). In the distribution by gender (Table II), mean values in lower WC were found in females (74.47 cm) and in males (77.52 cm) as well as the total sample compared to students from Santiago, Chile (Arnaiz , Acevedo, Díaz, Bancalari, Barja et al, 2010).…”

Abstract:In Chile, the increase in childhood obesity in school populations is a concern and has become an important public health problem, both in urban and rural sectors, it has experienced an accelerated increase in the number of overweight or obese individuals. The objective of the research was to describe and relate nutritional status through anthropometric assessments and the state of cardiorespiratory condition among students from rural and urban sectors of the Araucanía region of Chile. A total of 103 students (males, n = 60, females, n = 43) between 12 and 14 years of age (M ± DT: age = 12.9 ± 0.7 years), belonging to rural and urban sectors of the municipality of Angol, Araucanía region, Chile took part in the research. To evaluate the anthropometric variables weight, height and waist circumference were measured, to then calculate BMI and waist / height index; Navette and Ruffier tests were applied to evaluate cardiorespiratory capacity and VO2max after which a statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS v20.0 software. The results obtained indicated that in general there are not too many significant differences between urban and rural students in the variables evaluated, VO2max variable had a significant difference (p <0.05) though, the population of urban students obtained better results in the evaluated variables over rural students, correlations were found between the variables, the most prominent, a negative correlation between VO 2 max and BMI, it is proposed to carry out new research in the related school population in rural and urban sectors throughout Chile.
