“…The result of the Somatotype analysis indicates that the Endomorphic factor (linked to the relative presence of adipose tissue), its classification corresponds to moderate (3 to 5 according to qualitative classification), Mesomorphic factor (skeletal muscle development), its classification corresponds to moderate (3 to 5 according to qualitative classification), the Ectomorphic factor (relative slenderness), its classification corresponds to low. This classification, compared to the studies carried out by Silva et al [14], shows similar results in relation to the non-Mapuche population, if we compare the results of the Mapuche ethnic group with the study carried out by Arcay et al [15]. To the Huilliche Ethnicity, we find that the classification is similar since both groups have the same somatotype classification (Mesoendomorphs).…”

The studies of the somatotype allow us to know the quantified description of the morphological configuration of the individual, through endomorphy, mesomorphy and ectomorphy. Due to the acquisition of new eating habits along with a greater sedentarism in the child and adolescent population, it has been speculated that they have generated modifications in the morpho functional structure. This therefore, has encouraged a study that allows to determine the difference between the somatotype of the Mapuche children and the non Mapuche that inhabit the Province of Cautín, IX region of Chile. The subjects who participated in this study were 350 healthy children with a mean age of 11±1 years of age, height of 140.5±4.7 cm and a weight of 39.5±5 kg. All anthropometric measures were based on the protocol of the International Society for the Development of Cineanthropometry (ISAK). According to somatotype calculations. The following classifications were present: Group 10 years old; Endomorph-mesomorph, 11 years, age group, endomorph-mesomorph, 12 years, age group, and mesomorph-endomorph. The results indicate that the 10-year-old Mapuche children had lower values of endomorphy and higher values for mesomorphy (p≤0.01) than non-Mapuche children. The 11-year-old Mapuche children had lower values of endomorphy and higher values for mesomorphy (p≤0.01), compared to non-Mapuche children. The 12-year-old Mapuche children had lower values of endomorphy and mesomorphy (p≤0.05) than non-Mapuche children. In conclusion, the Mapuche schoolchildren present a mesomorphic predominance, however, nonMapuche children present predominance of the endomorphic component.

“…*P < 0.000 paired_ T test + P < 0.000 paired_ T test Table II According to Olivares et al (2006) this increase is related with an increase in caloric intake, while Atalah et al, relate the increase in levels of overweight and obesity with low levels of physical activity. Silva et al (2003) conclude that IX Region presents different geographical conditions to other regions of the country, with a long winter season which encourages physical inactivity and promotes higher energy intake, these risk factors undoubtedly are partly responsible for the increase in the obesity indices of the infantile population.…”

RESUMEN:El grupo étnico mapuche tiene una amplia distribución en la Novena Región, el proceso migratorio propio del desarrollo urbano, han hecho que parte de la etnia mapuche se traslade a la ciudad de Temuco, modificando sus estilos de vida. El estudio del Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC), es el parámetro recomendado por la OMS (Organización Mundial de la Salud), para conocer el estado nutricional de acuerdo a la norma técnica nutricional vigente en Chile. El somatotipo es utilizado para estimar la forma corporal y su composición. Este estudio describe la realidad nutricional y el somatotipo de una muestra de mapuches de los colegios municipalizados de la ciudad de Temuco. Se evaluaron 292 adolescentes mapuches de ambos sexos, 154 hombres (52,7%) y 138 mujeres (47,3%), entre 10 y 14 años de edad. Para obtener el somatotipo se utilizó el método antropométrico descrito por Heath & Carter mientras que la evaluación y clasificación del estado nutricional de acuerdo a las normas técnica nutricional. Los hombres presentaron un somatotipo mesoendomórficos (4.9/4.4). Las mujeres son endomesomórfico (5.4/4.3). El estado nutricional de la muestra tiene los siguientes resultados en el caso de los varones el 11,7 % fueron obesos y el 20,1 % presentaron sobrepeso. En las damas el 9,5 % fueron obesas y un 27,5 % presentaron sobrepeso. Al comparar por sexo se encontraron diferencias significativas en la Endomorfía a favor de las mujeres (p =0.00) y en los varones la Mesomorfía, con un (p= 0.00). No así en la Ectomorfía que no presentó diferencias. No obstante, no se encontraron diferencias al comparar los componentes del somatotipo entre las edades de la muestra. El ambiente Obesigénico donde destaca la modificación del estilo de vida, la alimentación, el efecto del sedentarismo, está afectando de igual forma a la población mapuche que al resto de la población escolar al ser comparados con muestras de estudiantes de establecimientos municipalizados.
