OBJECTIVE:To estimate the prevalence of, and identify factors associated with, accumulated risky behavior relating to cardiovascular diseases among adults. METHODS:This was a population-based cross-sectional study on a representative sample of 2732 adults of both sexes in Pelotas, Southern Brazil, in 2010. The behavioral risk factors investigated were: smoking; leisure-time physical inactivity; habitual consumption of visible fat in meat; and daily consumption of processed meats, red meat and whole milk. The study outcome was the accumulated behavioral risk factors score, ranging from zero to three: no behavioral risk factor for cardiovascular diseases or exposure to 1, 2 or ≥ 3 behavioral risk factors. Multinomial logistic regression was performed to evaluate the adjusted effect of individual characteristics on behavioral risk factors accumulation, taking individuals without any of these factors as the reference category. RESULTS:Physical inactivity was the most prevalent risk factor (75.6%), followed by habitual consumption of visible fat in meat (52.3%). Two thirds of the population presented two or more behavioral risk factors. Combined physical inactivity and habitual consumption of visible fat in meat was observed in 17.5% of the sample; and combined physical inactivity, habitual consumption of visible fat in meat and smoking in 6.7%. The odds ratios for accumulation of two or more risk factors were higher among men and were inversely associated with a national economic indicator. CONCLUSIONS:There was a high accumulation of behavioral risk factors for cardiovascular diseases among the study population. Public interventions with the capacity to prevent simultaneous occurrence of these factors are needed.

“…Chronic diseases are currently a major health issue, due to their scope and repercussions, particularly a decreased quality of life arising from increased health technology, life expectancy and lifestyle changes (Azevedo, Silva, Tomasi andQuevedo 2013, Capilheira andSantos 2011). According to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2002 and 2003 the increase in chronic diseases reached a high level, and it is estimated that, by 2020, 80% of the global burden of disease in developing countries will be due to chronic health problems.…”

“…Primary health care are vital for the promotion of health, prevention of disease and factors related thereto, in addition to being the gateway to the National Health System. This context includes chronic diseases, because of a planned importance of implementing strategies for the reduction of the prevalence and risk factors directly related to changes in lifestyles and to quality of life (Capilheira and Santos 2011).…”

Problem Statement: Chronic disease entails physical, psychological and social issues with a decrease in the quality of life. The assessment of QoL has been applied as indicator in patients with chronic diseases. Research Questions: What is the quality of life in patients with chronic disease? What are the socio-demographic variables that influence the quality of life in patients? Purpose: To assess the quality of life in patients suffering from chronic disease and identify socio-demographic variables which influence the quality of life of patients suffering from chronic disease. Research Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analytical study using a sample composed of 228 users (134 females) from a Family Health Unit in the municipality of Viseu. Data collection was made by means of a questionnaire, consisting of sociodemographic variables, the SF-12 scale and the existence of chronic disease was assessed through the questions -"Do you currently suffer from any chronic disease?"; "If so, which one(s)?". Findings: The most common chronic diseases were hypertension (59.9%). Female patients with a chronic disease reported worse physical functioning, role-physical and role-emotional; increased bodily pain and better quality of life regarding general health. Male patients showed worse role-physical, increased bodily pain and vitality. Sociodemographic variables which were associated with quality of life were area of residence, academic qualifications and work situation. Conclusion: Chronic disease affects quality of life negatively. Quality of life in both patients groups was associated with socio-demographic variables. Health-related quality of life is an essential issue and should be considered as a priority in health policies.

“…Nesse contexto, estão inseridas as doenças crônicas que têm sido muito estudadas por conta da importância da busca de estratégias para redução da prevalência dos fatores de risco envolvidos, que estão diretamente relacionados às mudanças de estilo de vida e à qualidade de vida 4 . Historicamente, uma das definições de doença crônica mais amplamente aceita é aquela proposta em 1957 pela Comissão de Doenças Crônicas de Cambridge (Estados Unidos), na qual se incluíam todos os desvios do normal que tinham uma ou mais das seguintes caracterís-ticas: permanência, presença de incapacidade residual, mudança patológica não reversível no sistema corporal, necessidade de treinamento especial do paciente para a reabilitação e previsão de um longo período de supervisão, observação e cuidados 5 .…”
