Dépistage et prise en charge des anomalies respiratoires de l’enfant obèse : syndrome d’apnée obstructive du sommeil et syndrome d’obésité hypoventilation

“…En région Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (PACA) en 2010, 6 % des enfants de 6 ans étaient en surpoids et 4 % étaient considérés comme obèse [26]. Cette prévalence s'accentue avec la pré-carité, particulièrement marquée dans la partie Ouest de la région PACA [27]. La population de cette étude présente beaucoup des facteurs de risque connus pour favoriser le développement d'une obésité [1,3,10] : des antécédents familiaux d'obésité au premier degré, un poids de naissance anormal (hypotrophie ou macrosomie), une alimentation dés-équilibrée (riche en graisse et sucre, absence de petit déjeu-ner, grignotage) et des difficultés sociales.…”

Impact of fruits and vegetables vouchers on food insecurity in disadvantaged families from a Paris suburb

“…Volunteer families were interviewed at community centres, or at home in order to sign the consent form, and complete the questionnaires. Questionnaires were adapted from those used in the ABENA study, which was specifically designed to be administered to disadvantaged groups [20]. A food frequency questionnaire was used to describe the consumption of children and adults in 13 main food groups (cereal products, starches, vegetables, fruits, legumes, dairy products, meats and eggs, fish and sea-food products, fast-food and pizza, salty snacks, sweet products, and beverages).…”

“…At inclusion, the 18-item Household Food Security Module (USDA HFSM), validated by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), was used to measure food security [39]. We used the French version of the questionnaire, adapted from the first translation performed in Quebec for the 2004 cycle of the Canadian Community Health Survey [40,41], that was already used in two French studies ABENA [5,20] and SIRS [14]. Based on the 18 items asked in order of severity, we used the guide provided by Bickel and colleagues to compute a continuous measure (ranging from 0 to 10) of FI, which was divided according the usual thresholds to obtain the 3 following categories: a) food secure (0-2.32), b) food insecure, without hunger (2.33-4.55), c) food secure with hunger (> 4.55) [42].…”

“…According to a study performed in the French general population in 2016, 11% of adults and 12% of children had experienced FI over the last 12 months [17], and these prevalence were increased compared to those of a similar study performed 10 years before [12,13]. Despite a considerable web of food aid structuresmore than 250 were identified during a study performed in France in 2012 among the beneficiaries of food aida large number of disadvantaged households are exposed to FI [18][19][20]. Besides, FI is not entirely explained by financial constraints [12,21].…”

Insegurança, desperdício e ajuda alimentar na Europa do Século XXI

“…Foi demonstrado que a metade da população que frequenta as estruturas recorria à ajuda há mais de dois anos. Comparativamente a estudo similar, realizado nos mesmos lugares em 2004-2005, foi constatado o aumento do número de desempregados, aposentados e pessoas com emprego (GRANGE et al, 2013).…”
