In this study, we evaluated socioeconomic inequalities in the consumption of in natura/minimally processed and ultra-processed foods among adolescents. We used data from the Brazilian National Survey of School Health (PeNSE), 2015. According to the self-reported consumption of beans, vegetables and fruits, a score of in natura/minimally processed foods was generated (0-21 points). Sodas, sweets, instant noodles, and ultra-processed meat were used for the score of ultra-processed foods (0-21 points). Equality indicators were gender, maternal education, and socioeconomic level. Absolute difference, ratios, concentration index and slope index of inequality were calculated. Adolescents (n=101,689, 51% girls, 14.2 years) reported a mean score of 9.97 and 11.46 for ultra-processed foods and in natura/minimally processed foods, respectively. Absolute and relative differences between adolescents with the highest and lowest socioeconomic level, there were differences of 2.64 points and 33% for consumption of in natura/minimally processed foods; and 1.48 points and 15% for ultra-processed foods. Adolescents from higher socioeconomic level ate more in natura/minimally processed foods and ultra-processed foods.
BACKGROUND: Associations between behaviors and individual chronic diseases have been demonstrated. However, the relationship between time spent on sedentary behavior and multimorbidity remains less clear. OBJECTIVE: To identify the predictive power of various intensities of physical activity versus sedentary behavior, as discriminatory factors for cardiometabolic multimorbidity (cardiovascular diseases and diabetes) in the elderly. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional study in different residential census tracts and residential households in Florianópolis (SC). METHODS: The participants were 425 elderly people (65% women) from the EpiFloripa Aging study in 2014. Sociodemographic variables and self-reported incidence of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes were obtained via a questionnaire. Light physical activity (LPA), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SB) were measured using accelerometers. The analyses were stratified according to sex and included a diagnosis for interpretation. Behaviors were taken into consideration if their predictive power in terms of area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was greater than 0.50. The time cutoff point was defined from sensitivity and specificity. RESULTS: For older adult men with diabetes, the predictive value of MVPA for absence of multimorbidity was an area of 0.75 (95% confidence interval, CI: 0.538-0.962), and a cutoff of 17 minutes per day. Older adult women with diabetes had an area of 0.71 (95% CI: 0.524-0.866) and a cutoff of 10 minutes per day. LPA and SB did not present predictive values. CONCLUSION: The time spent on MVPA is a predictor of absence of multimorbidity in elderly people with diabetes, for both sexes.
O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a efetividade do Vida Ativa Melhorando a Saúde (VAMOS) a partir da percepção dos usuários do Programa Academia da Saúde (PAS) de Belo Horizonte. Foi realizado um estudo qualitativo com participantes do GI (Grupo Intervenção) de um ensaio controlado e randomizado em dois polos do PAS. O GI participou das atividades do PAS e, adicionalmente, de um programa de mudança de comportamento (VAMOS) durante 12 semanas. A efetividade foi avaliada por meio de relatos em três grupos focais realizados com 32 participantes do GI (61 anos, ± 7,07) utilizando o roteiro baseado nas dimensões do modelo RE-AIM. A partir da análise de conteúdo foram identificados benefícios em quatro categorias: atividade física, alimentação, peso corporal e qualidade de vida. Pela percepção dos participantes, concluiu-se que o VAMOS trouxe benefícios nos marcadores do programa e que a metodologia utilizada foi efetiva para atingir os resultados.
O objetivo foi analisar a implementação do Programa Academia da Saúde ao longo de três anos (2015 a 2017). Os dados são do monitoramento anual da implantação do programa no Brasil, por questionários respondidos pela gestão estadual, municipal e dos polos. Foram analisados os polos por região, profissionais atuantes, ações desenvolvidas e público-alvo. Análise descritiva e análise inferencial foram realizadas para diferenças das proporções. Observou-se um aumento na taxa de resposta ao monitoramento, especialmente na região nordeste; mais de 88% dos polos mantiveram em maior proporção profissionais de educação física; houve aumento significativo da oferta de práticas corporais e atividade física (2015 vs 2016) e, redução nas ações em alimentação (2015 vs 2016), práticas integrativas complementares (2015 vs 2016) e no atendimento à idosos (2015 vs 2017). Há uma disparidade na implementação do programa nas regiões ao longo dos anos e o monitoramento poderá contribuir para estratégias em promoção de saúde.
