A public health threat in Hungary: obesity, 2013

Background: In Hungary, the last wide-range evaluation about nutritional status of the population was completed in 1988. Since then, only limited data were available. Our aim was to collect, analyze and present updated prevalence data. Methods. Anthropometric, educational and morbidity data of persons above 18 y were registered in all geographical regions of Hungary, at primary care encounters and within community settings. Results: Data (BMI, waist circumference, educational level) of 40,331 individuals (16,544 men, 23,787 women) were analyzed. Overall prevalence for overweight was 40.4% among men, 31.3% among women, while for obesity 32.0% and 31.5%, respectively. Abdominal obesity was 37.1% in males, 60.9% in females. Among men, the prevalence of overweight-obesity was: under 35 y = 32.5%-16.2%, between 35-60 y = 40.6%-34.7%, over 60 y = 44.3%-36.7%. Among women, in the same age categories were: 17.8%-13.8%, 29.7%-29.0%, and 36.9%-39.0%. Data were presented according to age by decades as well. The highest odds ratio of overweight (OR: 1.079; 95% CI [1.026-1.135]) was registered by middle educational level, the lowest odds ratio of obesity (OR: 0.500; 95% CI [0.463-0.539]) by the highest educational level. The highest proportion of obese people lived in villages (35.4%) and in Budapest (28.9%). Distribution of overweighed persons were: Budapest (37.1%), other cities (35.8%), villages (33.8%). Registered metabolic morbidities were strongly correlated with BMIs and both were inversely related to the level of urbanization. Over the previous decades, there has been a shift in the distribution of population toward being overweight and moreover obese, it was most prominent among males, mainly in younger generation. Conclusions: Evaluation covered 0.53% of the total population over 18 y and could be very close to the proper national representativeness. The threat of obesity and related morbidities require higher public awareness and interventions

Conducta suicida no letal en Castellón: un estudio descriptivo y comparativo.

Treball Final de Grau en Medicina. Codi: MD1158. Curs acadèmic: 2018/2019.Background: Due to the suicidal behavior variability regarding the sociocultural values of each territory, we conducted this study to define the sociodemographic and clinical features of the patients from Castellon. The objective is to obtain deeper knowledge that facilitate the detection and implementation of effective interventions. In addition, we carried out a comparative analysis between non-lethal suicide cases (our sample) and completed suicide cases. Methods: Our sample includes every person assisted for non-lethal suicidal behavior in the Psychiatric Emergency room at Castellon’s Provincial Hospital from January 19th to February 15th, performing an 8 year follow-up. Our completed suicide sample was taken from a previous study conducted in 2018.2 Results: Our sample showed an average age of 39, with a majority of women (56.1%) and psychiatric pathology diagnosis (74.2%, mainly anxiety-depressive disorders). Most of them were being followed by a health service (81.2%, generally their GP). The most frequent suicide method was drug overdose (94.4%). After the suicide episode, only 27 patients (40.9%) attended the healthcare service they were referred to, what may explain the persistance of the suicidal behavior during the follow-up (7.7% suicidal threats and 34.5% attempts) Conclusions: Non-lethal suicidal behavior in Castellon is more frequent among young, women, and those with psychiatric disorders, using as main suicidal method drug overdose. Most of them don’t attend the health care service responsible for their follow-up. Moreover, it was found that the completed suicide profile differs from the non-lethal; it is therefore required to develop different therapeutical and preventive strategies for each one.Introducción: Dada la variabilidad en la conducta suicida según los valores socioculturales de cada territorio, realizamos este estudio para definir las características sociodemográficas y clínicas de los pacientes con comportamiento suicida no letal de nuestra provincia. Pretendemos ampliar nuestro conocimiento para facilitar la detección de individuos en riesgo e implantar intervenciones efectivas. Además, realizamos una comparativa entre las características de nuestra muestra con las de suicidio consumado. Material y métodos: La muestra incluye toda conducta suicida no letal registrada en el Hospital Provincial de Castellón entre el 19 de enero y 15 de febrero de 2009, realizándose un seguimiento hasta febrero de 2017. La muestra de suicidio consumado es tomada de un proyecto previo de 2018. Resultados: La muestra la integran mayormente individuos jóvenes (media de 39 años), de sexo femenino (56.1%), con patología psiquiátrica (74.2%, principalmente trastornos ansioso-depresivos) y en seguimiento sanitario (81.2%, predominantemente MAP (77.3%)). El método de suicidio más frecuente fue la sobreingesta medicamentosa (94.4%). Sólo 27 pacientes (40.9%) acudieron tras el episodio a los servicios de salud remitidos, facilitándose así la persistencia de la conducta durante el seguimiento (7.7% amenazas, 34.5% tentativas). Conclusiones: La conducta suicida no letal de Castellón predomina entre adultos jóvenes, de sexo femenino, con trastornos psiquiátricos, que recurren como método a la sobredosis medicamentosa e incumplen el seguimiento a posteriori. Además, se comprobó que el perfil del comportamiento suicida letal difiere de los rasgos de la conducta suicida no letal, evidenciando la necesidad de desarrollar estrategias preventivas y terapéuticas distintas entre ellos
