Salvador, BA, BrasilO objetivo deste estudo foi identificar a associação entre padrões alimentares e índice de massa corporal (IMC) em crianças e adolescentes. Estudo transversal realizado em amostra de 1.247 estudantes entre 6 a 12 anos, de ambos os sexos, matriculados na rede pública de ensino de São Francisco do Conde, Bahia, Brasil. Para avaliar o estado nutricional foi utilizado o IMC. Informações de frequência de consumo alimentar, além das demográficas e socioeconômicas foram obtidas para cada participante. Os padrões alimentares foram obtidos a partir de análise fatorial. A prevalência de excesso ponderal foi de 17,3% (10,2% de sobrepeso e 7,1% de obesidade). Foram encontrados dois padrões alimentares: padrão “obesogênico” e “prudente”. O primeiro, caracterizado pelo consumo de doces, pratos típicos brasileiros, pastelarias, fast food, óleos, leite, cereais, bolos e molhos, esteve positivamente associado ao aumento do IMC (ßi = 0,244; p = 0,018). Os resultados apontaram associação do padrão obesogênico com aumento do IMC.The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between eating patterns and body mass index (BMI) in children and adolescents. This is a cross-sectional study of 1,247 male and female students, aged between 6 and 12, from public elementary schools in São Francisco do Conde, Bahia State, Brasil. BMI was used to analyze the children’s nutritional status. Food consumption frequencies, in addition to demographic and socioeconomic information, were collected for each participant. Dietary patterns were identified through a factor analysis. The prevalence of overweight and obesity was 17.3% (10.2% overweight and 7.1% obese). Two eating patterns, “obesogenic” and “prudent”, were identified. The former is characterized by sweets and sugars, typical Brazilian dishes, pastries, fast food, oils, milk, cereals, cakes, and sauces, and was positively associated with increased BMI (ßi = 0.244; p = 0.018). An “obesogenic” dietary pattern was associated with increased BMI.El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar la asociación entre patrones dietéticos e índice de masa corporal (IMC) en niños y adolescentes. Se trata de un estudio transversal, realizado en muestra de 1.247 estudiantes entre 6 a 12 años de edad, de ambos los sexos, inscritos en la red pública de enseñanza de São Francisco do Conde, Bahía, Brasil. Para evaluar el estado nutricional se utilizó el IMC. La información sobre la frecuencia de consumo alimentario, además de la demográfica y socioeconómica, se consiguió con cada participante. Los patrones dietéticos fueron obtenidos a partir del análisis factorial. La prevalencia de exceso ponderal fue de 17,3% [10,2% de sobrepeso y 7,1% de obesidad]. Fueron encontrados dos patrones dietéticos: “obesogénico” y “prudente”. El primero, caracterizado por el consumo de azúcares, platos típicos brasileños, pastelerías, fast food, aceites, leche, cereales, pasteles y salsas estuvo asociado al aumento del IMC (ßi = 0,244; p = 0,018). Los resultados apuntaron asociación del patrón dietético “obesogénico” y aumento del IMC

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between food and nutrition insecurity and asthma in children from Latin America. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: São Francisco do Conde, Bahia, north-eastern Brazil. SUBJECTS: The study included 1307 children aged 6-12 years from public elementary schools. Asthma symptoms were collected using a questionnaire that was translated and adapted from the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood, phase III. The diagnosis of asthma was determined based on reports of wheezing in the previous 12 months. The Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale was used to identify food insecurity. We also obtained demographic, socio-economic and anthropometric information for each participant. We used multivariate logistic regression analyses to assess the associations of interest. RESULTS: Of the children surveyed, 10·4% had a history of wheezing and 64·5% had some degree of food and nutrition insecurity. We found a positive dose-response relationship and statistically significant associations of asthma with moderate (OR = 1·71, 95% CI 1·01, 2·89) and severe (OR = 2·51, 95% CI 1·28, 4·93) food and nutrition insecurity. CONCLUSIONS: The results show that moderate and severe food and nutrition insecurity are markers of vulnerability to wheezing. It is important to note that the results of studies in this field have potential implications for social policies that promote food security. Further studies to identify the mechanisms involved in the relationship between food and nutrition insecurity and asthma are needed

    To assess the influence of dietary patterns on the prevalence of wheezing in the child and adolescent population in Northeastern Brazil. This is a cross-sectional study of male and female students, 6-12 years old, from the public elementary schools of São Francisco do Conde, Bahia, Northeastern Brazil. The report of wheezing in the past 12 months was collected using a questionnaire from the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood Program phase III, adapted to Portuguese. Consumption patterns were derived from principal component analysis based on the frequency of consumption of 97 food items by the food frequency questionnaire. We also obtained the anthropometric status, level of physical activity, pubertal development, and socioeconomic information, for each participant. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to assess the associations of interest. Of the children surveyed, 10.6% reported having wheezing. We identified 2 dietary patterns named Western and Prudent. We found a positive statistically significant association of the Western pattern with wheeze (odds ratio=1.77, 95% confidence interval: 1.10-2.84) after adjustment for total energy intake and controlling for potential confounders. The results showed that the Western dietary pattern was associated with wheezing. Our result is according with previous findings reported in several other studies
