“…The sustained rise in obesity prevalence, especially type III obesity, underscores the cumulative impact of environmental and lifestyle factors on metabolic health over time. Consistent with global reports, this rising pattern corresponds to ampli ed obesity worldwide and its accompanying comorbid conditions, including type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular ailments (37)(38)(39) .…”

Introduction: Obesity is a global epidemic affecting millions of people worldwide. Its diagnosis and treatment are crucial for the prevention of associated chronic diseases. Objectives: To assess the prevalence of obesity according to different diagnostic criteria, analyze the concordance between various diagnostic methods, and identify associated factors. Methods: Peru's Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES) from 2019 to 2022 was utilized. The cut-off points for defining obesity were ≥ 30 for body mass index (BMI), the ATPIII criteria for waist circumference (WC-ATPIII), and 0.56 for the waist-to-height ratio (WHtR). Concordance analyses were performed to compare diagnostic methods and regression analyses were conducted to identify associated factors. Results: The prevalence of obesity according to BMI, WC-ATPIII, and WHtR was 25.65%, 42.04%, and 46.49%, respectively. The concordance between the three criteria was evaluated through the Kappa index. The concordance between obesity by BMI and WC-ATPIII was 0.5141. The concordance between BMI and WHtR was 0.5099. Finally, the concordance between WC-ATPIII and WHtR was 0.7514. Men showed a lower prevalence of obesity compared to women. The obesity trend increased overall during the study period, with marked differences in prevalence according to the obesity measure used. Conclusions: The findings reveal differences in obesity prevalence according to the diagnostic method employed and underscore the need to consider multiple approaches to assess obesity. The results significantly affect public health and provide a foundation for future interventions and policies to combat obesity in Peru.

“…Os resultados encontrados demonstraram aumento da prevalência de excesso de peso e redução do baixo peso nessa população. Essa tendência se reflete em gestantes adolescentes, como também na população adulta de forma geral (Silva Júnior et al, 2021;Silva et al, 2022).…”

Resumo: O presente artigo abordou sobre os efeitos da nutrição na prevenção e tratamento do câncer e fatores associados a desnutrição. O objetivo deste estudo foi discutir com base em estudos sobre os efeitos da nutrição no tratamento e prevenção do câncer e os fatores relacionados a desnutrição. O método utilizado nesse artigo foi a revisão de literatura composta da análise de artigos científicos encontrados em bases de dados como BVS, Scielo, Pubmed e Google Acadêmico. A partir dos estudos analisados, é possível observar que grande é a eficácia da nutrição no tratamento e na prevenção do câncer. A nutrição contribui na diminuição das manifestações clínicas do câncer, melhora a qualidade de vida do paciente, reduz o tempo de hospitalização, além de diminuir os riscos de desnutrição. Neste artigo, foram identificados alimentos e nutrientes utilizados na terapia nutricional e na prevenção do câncer. Faz-se importante a criação de ações educativas realizadas por profissionais de saúde, a fim de influenciar a redução do consumo de alimentos ultraprocessados e o aumento do consumo de alimentos in natura, ricos em antioxidantes e anticancerígenos pela população.
