“…The prevalence of dyslipidaemias found in our study [50% with total cholesterol levels > 170 mg/dl (4.4 mmol/l)] is higher than the values found in some studies3841 that used the same cut-off points. Other studies (Muscatine study and Bogalusa Heart study) showed similar values to ours,42 however, the cut-off points were different from those used in our study, making comparisons impractical 42…”

“…Studies have alerted us to the increase in incidence of dyslipidaemia in children and adolescents 38,39. No epidemiological data on the prevalence of dyslipidaemia in this age group is available at the regional or national level in Angola, but a study conducted in adults observed that 50.1% showed low HDL cholesterol levels, while 11.1% showed hypercholesterolaemia, and 10.6% hypertriglyceridaemia 35…”

SummaryMethodsThe incidence of obesity is increasing worldwide, especially in countries with accelerated economic growth. We determined the prevalence of and associations between overweight/ obesity and cardiovascular risk factors in pre-pubertal (seven- to 11-year-old) schoolchildren (both genders, n = 198) in Luanda, Angola. Biochemical (fasting blood) and clinical examinations were obtained in a single visit. Data are reported as prevalence (95% confidence intervals) and association (r, Pearson).ResultsPrevalence of overweight/obesity was 17.7% (12.4–23.0%), high blood pressure (BP < 90% percentile) was 14.6% (9.7–19.5%), elevated glucose level was 16.7% (11.5–21.9%) and total cholesterol level < 170 mg/dl (4.4 mmol/l) was 69.2% (62.8–75.6%). Significant associations between body mass index (BMI) and systolic and diastolic BP (r = 0.46 and 0.40, respectively; p < 0.05) were found. No association between BMI and elevated glucose or cholesterol levels was found.ConclusionThe prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors was high in pre-pubertal schoolchildren in Angola and fat accumulation was directly associated with blood pressure increase but not with other cardiovascular risk factors.

“…Although the serving number of full-fat dairy products was lower than adequate recommendation, this food group was related to high cholesterol levels. Alcantara-Neto et al (2012) [31] showed similar association between high total cholesterol and high triglycerides with dietary saturated fat. Nicklas et al (2002) and Sanchez-Bayle et al (2008) [36,37] also showed a positive relationship between total cholesterol and dietary saturated fat.…”

“…The compilation of the most recent Brazilian regional studies showed that the prevalence of high lipid and lipoprotein levels ranges from 3.1 to 43.8% in children and adolescents [28-31]. However, it is difficult to compare these results among the studies because of the different reference values and cutoff point adopted - Brazilian Heart Society, American Academic of Pediatrics, National Cholesterol Education Program.…”

Dietary intake and blood lipid profile in overweight and obese schoolchildren

et al. 2012

BackgroundThe high blood lipid levels and obesity are one of the main risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, and the atherosclerotic process begins in childhood. Some environmental factors are supposed to be involved in this relationship, such as dietary factors. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between dietary intake and blood lipids levels in overweight and obese schoolchildren.MethodsThis is a cross-sectional study with 147 overweight and obese schoolchildren in Botucatu city, Brazil. The anthropometric measurements (body weight, height, body mass index, waist circumference and skinfolds), pubertal staging evaluation and biochemical tests were taken in all children. Three 24h-recall were applied in order to estimate the dietary intake and its relationship with blood lipid levels. The Student t test and multiple linear regression analysis were used for statistical analysis. Statistical significance was assessed at the level of 0.05. The data were processed in SAS software (version 9.1.3; SAS Institute).ResultsAt this study, 63% of children were obese (body mass index higher than 95th percentile) and 80% showed high body fat percentage. The percentage of children with abnormal total cholesterol and triglycerides was 12% and 10%, respectively, and 28% presented at least one abnormal lipid levels. The average values of anthropometric measurements were higher in children with elevated lipid levels. Total cholesterol levels were positively related to full-fat dairy products and triglycerides levels to saturated fat percentage.ConclusionsSaturated fat was positively associated with elevated lipid levels in overweight and obese schoolchildren. These results reinforce the importance of healthy dietary habits since childhood in order to reduce the risks of cardiovascular diseases in adulthood.

“…O excesso de peso e os hábitos alimentares em escolares são considerados sérios problemas da atualidade por constituírem fatores de riscos para as doenças cardiovasculares, dislipidemias, diabetes, hipertensão arterial e cânceres em todas as idades 13 . Dessa forma, a escola apresenta-se como um ambiente estratégico no incentivo à formação de hábitos alimentares saudáveis por meio do desenvolvimento de ações preventivas aos desvios nutricionais, em razão dos comportamentos, atitudes e hábitos serem bem estruturados nesta fase 6 .…”

Estudar as características antropométricas e os hábitos alimentares de escolares do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública do município de Belém-PA. Materiais e Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo transversal que analisou dados sociodemográficos, antropométricos e alimentares de escolares do 2º ao 5º ano, no período de agosto a dezembro de 2013. Para classificação do estado nutricional foi utilizado o cálculo do índice de massa corporal (IMC), enquanto que a avaliação dos hábitos alimentares foi realizada por meio de um questionário de frequência alimentar. Resultados: Foram estudados 111 escolares, sendo 51,40% adolescentes. As crianças e os adolescentes eram na sua maioria do sexo feminino (57,66%), com média de idade de 8,25±0,70 e 11,01±1,60 anos, respectivamente. Foi observado que a maioria das crianças e adolescentes apresentou estado nutricional adequado. Entretanto foi verificado um percentual considerável de excesso de peso: para as crianças, segundo peso/idade (18,50%) e IMC/ Idade (33,30%) para o sexo feminino (p=0,016), e para os adolescentes (IMC/I: 26,30%), sem diferença estatística entre os sexos. Os hábitos alimentares indicaram um consumo insuficiente de alimentos considerados protetores para doenças cardiovasculares como: feijão (54,50%), frutas (70,90%), salada crua (58,70%), verduras e legumes cozidos (58,60%), e um consumo considerável de alimentos de risco como: carne com gordura (17,9%), frango com pele (21,10%), fritura (40,20%), refrigerantes (41,30%), salgados fritos e salgadinhos de milho (36,60%). Conclusão: Observou-se que a maioria dos escolares apresentava estado nutricional de eutrofia, entretanto foi constatado um percentual considerável de excesso peso e uma alimentação inadequada. Palavras-chaves: estado nutricional; hábitos alimentares; escolares.
