Objective: To analyze the bidirectional association between wheezing and obesity during adolescence and the beginning of adulthood in a cohort in southern Brazil. Methods: This prospective longitudinal study used data from the 1993 birth cohort in Pelotas, Brazil. The following outcome variables were measured at 22 years of age: self-reported wheezing during the last 12 months and obesity (BMI = 30 kg/m2). The following exposure variables were measured at ages 11, 15, and 18: self-reported wheezing (no wheezing or symptom presentation in 1, 2, or 3 follow-ups) and obesity (non-obese or obese in 1, 2, or 3 follow-ups). Crude and adjusted logistical regression stratified by sex were used in the analyses. The reference category was defined as participants who presented no wheezing or obesity. Results: A total of 3,461 participants had data on wheezing and 3,383 on BMI. At 22 years of age, the prevalence of wheezing was 10.1% (95%CI: 9.1; 11.2), and obesity, 16.2% (95%CI: 15.0; 17.6). In females, the presence of wheezing in two follow-ups revealed a 2.22-fold (95%CI: 1.36; 3.61) greater chance of developing obesity at 22 years of age. Meanwhile, the presence of obesity in two follow-ups resulted in a 2.03-fold (95%IC: 1.05; 3.92) greater chance of wheezing at 22 years of age. No associations were found between wheezing and obesity in males. Conclusions: The obtained data suggest a possible positive bidirectional association between wheezing and obesity, with greater odds ratios in the wheezing to obesity direction in females and in the category of occurrence of exposure in two follow-ups.

“…The race/ethnicity classification based on the skin color self‐identification has been shown to be the most accurate considering historical and theoretical reasons 25 . Besides, race determined by self‐reported skin color is a proxy of socioeconomic status and it has been associated with some health outcomes in Brazil 17,18 …”

“…In Brazil, to our knowledge headache disability has never been compared among racial/ethnic groups. Nationwide epidemiological studies have shown an association of unhealthy lifestyle behavior, major chronic non‐communicable diseases, and health indicators with racial‐ethnical groups, with Black/Brown Brazilians showing poorer outcomes compared to White ones 17,18 . Despite the different methodologies employed for studying race/ethnicity among these countries, both US and Brazilian authors point to the harmful effects of racial/ethnic discrimination and segregation on population health 16–19 .…”

Objective To map the socioeconomic and geographic inequalities in headache disability in Brazil. Background Headache disability and its social determinants are poorly investigated in Brazil. Methods This is a secondary, cross‐sectional analysis of the 2019 National Health Survey database, a representative sample of the Brazilian population. Working‐aged Brazilians (aged ≥14 years) were included in the analyses (n = 225,563). Headache disability was inquired through questions on the number of days the respondent was unable to perform customary daily activities in the past 2 weeks. Proportion estimates and the mean days lost were compared between socioeconomic categories. Sample weights were used. Results Among 14 disease‐related disability groups, headache disability (n = 1228) was the second most prevalent disability in adolescents and fifth among adults aged <50 years. In the headache disability sample, there was a higher proportion of females at 72.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] 68.5%–75.9%), with a mean (95% CI) age of 41.1 (40.1–42.0) years and days lost due to disability of 3.4 (3.2–3.6) days. The sociodemographic distribution across income strata (quartiles) of the headache disability sample showed the highest proportions at the lowest income quartile in the Northeast region (15.4%, 95% CI 12.8%–18.4%), for people of Brown color (17.5%, 95% CI 14.7%–20.7%), and with the lowest education level (l3.6%, 95% CI 11.3%–16.2%). Black people, those from the North region, and those with the lowest education level had more days lost than White people (mean [95% CI] 4.1 [3.5–4.6] vs. 3.1 [2.8–3.4] days, p = 0.008), those from the Southeast region (mean [95% CI] 3.8 [3.4–4.2] vs. 2.8 [2.4–3.3] days, p = 0.022), and people with the highest education level (mean [95% CI] 3.9 [3.6–4.2] vs. 2.8 [2.3–3.3] days, p = 0.005), respectively. Conclusion In Brazil, headache disability is one of the leading causes of disability and it is characterized by socioeconomic inequalities.
