“…Also, it calls the attention the high prevalence of prehypertension (33.9%), higher in male. This is similar to data found in studies made in Brazil in which it was found a 3.3% [14], with a higher prevalence in males, in Peru with a prevalence of 1.4% [15], and in Colombia with a prevalence of 3.8% of prehypertension and 3.2% of hypertension in a sample of 2807 adolescents [16]. The ERICA study showed elevated blood pressure numbers in 14.9% of adolescents [17].…”

Introduction: Hypertension is the most common chronic non-contagious disease. High blood pressure is an important risk factor for premature mortality and contributes to the development of heart disease, stroke and kidney failure. In spite of the fact that it is consider to be an adult disease, the frequency in young people has increased. Methods: All students enrolled in first, second and third semester of the Medical School, Faculty of Medical Sciences-Universidad Central del Ecuador, period October 2014-March 2015 were invited to participate. Body mass index was calculated; waist circumference and blood pressure were measured. The diagnosis of hypertension was made using recommended criteria by the ATP III, IDF and JNC 7. Blood chemistry including urea, glucose, creatinine, uric acid and lipid profile were determined. Results: 883 college students in a range of 17-25 years were included; the average age was 19.3 ± 1.4 (63.3% female and 36.7% male). 15.2% (n = 134) presented a blood pressure >130/85, 9.51% (n = 84) had elevated systolic pressure and 9.1% (n = 81) elevated diastolic pressure. 33.9% had prehypertension. 22.3% (n = 197) were overweight and 3.2% (n = 28) obese. In students with altered waist circumference, it was tendency to increase systolic and diastolic blood pressure: Hypertriglyceridemia (> 150 mg / dl) is associated with high systolic blood pressure. Conclusion: Body mass index, waist circumference and male gender were associated with an increase in both, systolic and diastolic blood pressure in young university students. systolic pressure and 90 mmHg diastolic pressure, while values among 120-139 mmHg (systolic) and 80-89 mmHg (diastolic) indicate a pre hypertension status [4]. High blood pressure is a major risk factor for premature disability and mortality, it directly contributes to the development of heart disease, stroke and renal failure [1,5]. High levels of blood pressure are not always presented with clinical symptoms, so early detection of levels outside the ranges established would help to reduce the frequency of cardiovascular events in the future [6]. Overweight, smoking and physical inactivity are strongly related to the deterioration of overall health and are among the most important modifiable risk factors for chronic diseases and premature death [7]. Changes in these factors as increasing exercise levels, lower body weight and quit smoking significantly reduce the BP levels and the hypertension rates [5,8]. Certain cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, BMI, smoking, alcoholism, diet and sedentary lifestyle, are most frequently involved with blood pressure increase [9,10]. Many of these conditions are common in young people and adolescents around the world, so the risk of hypertensive disorders is higher [10]. It is important to identify young population with a previous stage of hypertension (prehypertension), whereas in adults the risk of cardiovascular disease increases with this condition [6].

“…The roc represents graphically the relation between sensitivity and the specificity inverse, in this regard and once the variables that influence cardiovascular risk in students were determined, a roc curve analysis was conducted in order to establish the probability of cardiovascular risk in this population, thus finding that the area beneath the curve reaches 0.816, that is to say, a student who has the habit of using alcohol and whose bmi indicates overweight or obesity has a probability of 81 % of having cardiovascular risk. For its part, the 2009 study of Sáez and Bernui established that 46 % of the evaluated population present a high prevalence of being passive smokers who reported being exposed to tobacco smoke at home and/or in other places, a fact that increases in 25 % the risk of cardiorespiratory diseases (17,18).…”

Introduction: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, and they have become a problem of interest of public health, both for developed and developing countries. In this regard, the decrease in time devoted to physical activity and the increase of sedentary activities stand out, thus making physical inactivity one of the many risk factors for Cardiovascular diseases. The objective was to determine the factors associated with cardiovascular risk in students of an educational institution in the city of Cali, Colombia. Materials and Methods: It is an observational and analytical epidemiological study with a sample of 227 randomly selected students, with 95 % reliability. To determine the level of physical activity in schoolchildren, researchers applied the international IPAQ physical activity questionnaire, and took anthropometric measures such as weight, height, and waist and hip circumference. Results: 96 % of the participants presented low cardiovascular risk. Likewise, the variables that showed a statistically significant association with cardiovascular risk were alcohol consumption and body mass index, which predict 81 % of the possibility of being at risk. Conclusions: The low cardiovascular risk and the high level of physical activity prevailed in the evaluated schoolchildren, significant differences regarding gender were observed, finding that men have higher values in weight, height, and waist/hip ratio compared to females. Finally, it was established that the factors associated with cardiovascular risk are body mass index and alcohol consumption.

ResumenIntroducción: Las enfermedades cardiovasculares se encuentran entre las primeras causas de muerte a nivel mundial y la evidencia científica sugiere que tienen un origen en edades tempranas, por lo que disminuir desde la adolescencia los riesgos que contribuyen a su aparición es indispensable. Objetivo: Determinar riesgo cardiovascular en la población adolescente de una institución educativa de Timbío, Cauca, 2015-2016. Metodología: Estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo, observacional y de corte transversal. Muestra: 100 estudiantes (47 mujeres, 53 hombres), de 10 a 19 años de edad. Se evaluaron variables sociodemográficas, antropométricas, fisiológicas, bioquímicas (glicemia), antecedentes personales, familiares, estilos de vida y uso de anticonceptivos orales. Resultados: Se encontró una mayor prevalencia de riesgo cardiovascular en el grupo etario adolescente (15-18 años) con 84.6%; el género femenino presentó más posibilidad de tener riesgo cardiovascular (OR: 2.8, IC 95% 1.17 -6.87); el 7% afirmó consumir tabaco regularmente y el 12% son fumadores pasivos. Se obtuvo que el 26% ingiere bebidas alcohólicas, con una mayor prevalencia entre las edades de 15 a 18 años (OR: 19.4, IC 95% 2.45 -48.11); en cuanto a la actividad física el 79% la practicaba de forma extracurricular. Presentar hábitos alimenticios no saludables genera mayor riesgo cardiovascular (OR: 5.57, IC 95% 1.95 -15.90). El 67% (n= 67) tiene riesgo cardiovascular. Conclusiones: El género femenino, el grupo adolescente (15-18 años), el consumo de bebidas alcohólicas y hábitos alimenticios no saludables, se asocian con una mayor posibilidad de tener riesgo cardiovascular. Se encontró en un gran porcentaje de la población de estudio riesgo cardiovascular.Palabras clave: Factores de riesgo, enfermedades cardiovasculares, estilo de vida, niño, adolescente. AbstractIntroduction: Cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of death worldwide and scientific evidence suggests that they have an origin at early ages, so that diminishing from adolescence the risks that contribute to its emergence is essential. Objective: To determine cardiovascular risk in the adolescent population of a high school of Timbío, Cauca, 2015-2016. Methodology: Quantitative, descriptive, observational and cross-sectional study. Sample: 100 students (47 women, 53 men), from 10 to 19 years old. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, physiological, biochemical variables (glycemia), personal history, family history, lifestyles and use of oral contraceptives were evaluated. Results: A higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk was found in the adolescent age group (15-18 years)
