“…20 A previous study has suggested that weight change is associated with more relative changes in fat-free mass in men than in women, 24 and body fat percentage has been reported as highly indicative of CVD risk factors in another study. 34 In other words, weight gain in women is associated with a higher degree of fat mass gain than is the case in men, possibly leading to unfavorable metabolic and health consequences. In Japanese women, Saito et al reported that there was no significant association between weight change since age 20 and CVD mortality, 19 although we observed a U-shaped relationship for women in the present study.…”

Monitoring long-term weight change, which represents the transition of weight trajectories during the course of life, may help to clarify the mixed results for CVD mortality among older subjects. 22 Both being persistently obese since early adulthood and having an increase in BMI category from normal to obese were associated with higher all-cause mortality in the Ohsaki Cohort Study. 23 An inverse relationship in men and L-shaped association in women between weight change and all-cause and CVD mortality, however, were observed in another study among middle-aged Japanese individuals. 19 Additionally, a previous study has suggested that the metabolic and health consequences of weight change may differ between men and women. 24 Furthermore, sex differences in major cardiovascular risk factors have been noted as a substantial reason for the sex difference in CVD risk. 25 Previous studies of the association between weight change and subsequent CVD morbidity or mortality, however, were based mainly besity is an established risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity 1-3 and mortality. 4-6 In addition to a high body mass index (BMI), weight gain also adversely affects CVD risk factors. 7-10 The effect of weight change on CVD mortality has been assessed in several studies, but the results have varied. Some studies have reported weight gain associated with CVD mortality, 11,12 or that there was a U-shaped association, 13-15 whereas others have shown that only weight loss was associated with CVD mortality. 16-20 Editorial p 602These differences in results could have been due to differences in the age composition of the study participants, the life stage at which weight change occurred, the duration of the weight change, or the length of follow-up among the studies. 21 The elevated mortality risk associated with recent weight loss due to antecedent disease, especially in studies of older people Background: It is unclear whether weight change since young adulthood affects the risk of mortality due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this study was to investigate weight change since age 20 in relation to the risk of CVD mortality.

“…Esses dados são importantes para respaldar e intensificar a frequência de avaliações antropométricas em crianças e adolescentes, pois o aumento no acúmulo de tecido adiposo se associa à presença de outras alterações no estado de saúde, o que gera fatores de risco para doenças graves e complicações (1)(2)(3)(4)6,20,21) . Por outro lado, os fatores de risco metabólico e vascular concernentes ao excesso de peso ainda não podem ser preditos com o uso da BIA (27) .…”

“…Para essa avaliação, podem ser usados distintos métodos, desde os mais acurados e com alto custo aos menos dispendiosos e de execução mais fácil (4,5) . Nesse contexto, destacam-se, além do popular cálculo do índice de massa corporal, a análise de impedância bioelétrica ou bioimpedância (BIA) e a mensuração das dobras cutâneas -dois métodos indiretos capazes de avaliar a gordura corporal total (1,6,7) . A análise por meio da BIA estima os componentes e fluidos corporais e se baseia no princípio de que o fluxo da corrente elétrica possui taxas diferentes pelo corpo, de acordo com a sua composição.…”

Métodos indiretos de mensuración de grasa corporal en adolescentes escolares RESUMOObjetivo: Comparar dois diferentes métodos indiretos de estimativa do percentual de gordura corporal em adolescentes escolares. Métodos: Estudo analítico, de caráter transversal, realizado com 300 escolares entre 12 e 17 anos na cidade de Petrolina, Pernambuco, Brasil. Todos foram submetidos à avaliação antropométrica, tendo os percentuais de gordura corporal estimados por dobras cutâneas e bioimpedância elétrica (BIA) bipolar. Os testes seguiram os procedimentos recomendados e os avaliados estavam vestidos segundo recomendações. Os distintos percentuais de gordura corporal foram comparados através do teste não paramétrico de Wilcoxon e correlacionados pelo coeficiente de correlação linear de Spearman, com nível de significância de p≤0,05. Resultados: A mediana (intervalo interquartil) de idade dos avaliados foi de 13,0 (13,0-15,0) anos, sendo 214 (71,3%) meninas. Os métodos comparados apresentaram forte correlação linear positiva (r=0,76; p<0,001). Porém, os 26,9% (26,5-28,2) de gordura obtidos por dobras cutâneas são estatisticamente diferentes (p<0,001) dos 22,3% (21,6-23,1) verificados por BIA. Em ambos os gêneros e em todas as idades, o percentual de gordura estimado por dobra cutânea foi maior que o estimado por BIA, entretanto, os métodos apresentam boa correlação (p<0,0001). Conclusão: Os percentuais de gordura corporal mensurados pelo método antropométrico (dobras cutâneas) e pela bioimpedância bipolar apresentam uma correlação forte e significativa em adolescentes escolares. Nesse âmbito, BIA configura-se como opção interessante para monitorizar e avaliar as alterações no estado nutricional desta população. correlation (r=0.76, p<0.001). However, Descritores

“…16 Recently, BF% has emerged as an important risk factor of morbidity and mortality related to cardiovascular diseases, independent of BMI, 17 and is found to be more useful in identifying early stage accumulation of cardiovascular disease risk. 18 Various studies have provided substantial evidence in support of BMI and BF% not being analogous entities 19 and that a high BF% is far more useful in detecting normal-weight obesity. 20 There is paucity of accurate data and statistics related to this in our region (Shimla).…”
