Associated indicators to abdominal obesity in brazilian and spanish students aged 11 to 16 years
Abstract
Objective: to characterize abdominal obesity and to verify the associated indicators in students aged 11 to 16 years in cities of Brazil and Spain. Materials and Methods: Epidemiological study with 402 students (G-ESP: n=165; G-BRA: n=237). The variables: sex, age, school administrative dependence, height, body mass, blood pressure, sedentary behavior, physical activity level, total cholesterol, low and high density lipoproteins, triglycerides and fasting glucose were analyzed. Results: G-SPA girls had a significantly lower prevalence of abdominal obesity, high waist height ratio, high total cholesterol, sedentary behavior, elevated triglycerides compared to G-BRA girls. The G-SPA boys presented better results of abdominal obesity, high waist height ratio, less active, sedentary behavior and high triglycerides compared to G-BRA boys. According to the prevalence ratio test in the G-SPA and G-BRA gross analysis, students with overweight and obesity and high waist height ratio were the most likely to present the outcome. In the adjusted analysis, students with overweight and obesity and with high waist height ratio, were significantly more likely to also present abdominal obesity. Conclusion: high prevalence of several risk factors were found, with better results among Spanish students in most of the indicators. Only anthropometric variables (body mass index and waist height ratio) were associated with abdominal obesity among students of cities in Brazil and Spain.
