Item Projeto A.M.A.R. relato de parceria entre a universidade e uma organização não governamental(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 1997-12) Monêgo, Estelamaris Tronco; Souza, Ana Luiza Lima; Santos, Maria Lúcia R.Item Beta-caroteno e câncer(1998-12) Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoThe subject β-carotene and cancer has been studied for more than twenty years, through epidemiologic and experimental researches.Observational epidemiologic studies, both prospective and retrospective, have suggested strongly that high intake of vegetables and fruits which are sources of β-carotene is associated with reduced risk of cancer, specially of lung cancer. However, the results of intervention trials do not demonstrate a preventive potential of β-carotene. Nevertheless, in many studies in experimental animals and in cell cultures, this carotenoid had been shown to act as a potent cancer chemopreventive agent and mechanisms have been proposed to explain this protective effect on biological systems. Researchers suggest that β-carotene protects against cancer, in the amounts easily attained by the consumption of a wide variety of diets, and the chronic pharmacological supplementation is not recommended for healthy populations and for heavy smokers.Item Anemia do lactente: etiologia e prevalência(2002) Hadler, Maria Claret Costa Monteiro; Juliano, Yara; Sigulem, Dirce MariaObjective: To verify the prevalence of anemia, iron deficiency anemia and iron deficiency in infants, at a Public Health Unit in the city of Goiânia – Brazil; to analyze and to correlate the hematologic and biochemical variables. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out. One hundred and ten full-term infants of the 120 mothers interviewed were included. The infants aged between six and twelve months and there were not twins. Socioeconomic and hematologic data was obtained. Venous blood was taken from fasting infants in order to carry out a complete hemogram through electronic cell counting, serum iron, serum ferritin and C-reactive protein, which were used in the evaluation of the etiology of iron deficiency in the anemic infants. Children with hemoglobin < 11g/dL were considered ane mic. Results: The prevalence of anemia was 60.9%. In the diagnosis of the iron deficiency etiology in infants without an inflammation process, when considering the alteration of hemoglobin plus two more indices among mean corpuscular volume (MCV) or mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) or serum ferritin or serum iron, the prevalence of the iron deficiency was 87%. Nevertheless, when red cell distribution width (RDW) was included in the indices, the prevalence was 97.8%. In the non-anemic infants, considering ferritin and RDW, the prevalence of iron deficiency observed was 28%. The best correlation among hematologic and biochemical variables were between hemoglobin and hematocrit (r = 0.946), and MCH with MCV (r = 0.950). Conclusions: The main etiology in infants was iron deficiency anemia and its prevalence varied according to different parameters and criteria.Item Pó da casca de ovo como fonte de cálcio: qualidade nutricional e contribuição para o aporte adequado de cálcio(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2003-06) Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoItem Pesquisa e extensão construindo saúde um trabalho de combate à FOME(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2003-06) Cunha, Dulce Terezinha Oliveira daItem Nutrição, atividade física e obesidade em adultos: aspectos atuais e recomendações para prevenção e tratamento(2004) Beraldo, Fernanda Carneiro; Naves, Maria Margareth Veloso; Vaz, Inaiana Marques FilizolaObesity is a chronic nontransmissible disease, characterized by excessive body weight, whose prevalence is rising at alarming levels in developed societies as well as in developing countries. In Brazil, overweight (body mass index – BMI ≥ 25.0kg/m2) and obesity (BMI ≥ 30.0kg/m2) reached 40% of women and 27% of men in the 80’s and 90’s decades. A diet high in energy density and a sedentary lifestyle are considered the most relevant factors that could explain the increasing obesity in western societies. For obese people, it is recommended a loss between 5 and 30% of body weight (about 0.5 to 1.0kg/week), depending of the levels of obesity, by means of a decreasing of 500 to 1000kcal in daily diet. The low energy diet must be balanced in terms of macronutrients and it must contain foods low in energy density, i.e., restriction in simple carbohydrates-rich foods and alcohol and increase in consumption of foods rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals and water. Both physical activity and diet must be used to lose weight and to maintain the weight lost. Physical exercise with moderate intensity is recommended for at least 30 min/day, including routine activities. Thereby, healthy food habits and active lifestyle must be essential goals in the prevention and treatment programs of obesity.Item Fortificação de alimentos com o pó da casca de ovo como fonte de cálcio(2007-03) Naves, Maria Margareth Veloso; Fernandes, Daniela Canuto; Prado, Carla Marques Maia do; Teixeira, Luiz Savio MedeirosEgg shell powder is used as a calcium source in a nutritional supplement known as “multimistura” that has been distributed in Brazil by non-governmental organizations. The objectives of this research were to fortify traditional, low cost and easy to prepare dishes with egg shell powder and to estimate the nutritional contribution of each portion to the calcium daily intake. Ten common dishes were prepared and fortified with egg shell powder (with 37.4% of calcium) at the rate of 1g to 100 g of cereal or flour used in the processing foods. The fortified foods showed a range of calcium concentrations between 111.5 mg and 506.4 mg.100 g -1, which were significantly higher than the contents of the original formulations without fortification. Mean portions of fortified dishes provide about 14 to 32% of the nutritional calcium references for adults. It was concluded that traditional dishes fortified with egg shell powder could contribute significantly to the adequate calcium intake and to prevent calcium deficiency, mainly osteoporosis, in individuals of different age groups and social levels.Item Fatores associados à prática de atividade física na população adulta de Goiânia: monitoramento por meio de entrevistas telefônicas(2008) Cunha, Iana Cândido; Peixoto, Maria do Rosario Gondim; Jardim, Paulo César Brandão Veiga; Weiss, Veruska Prado AlexandreIntroduction: Practicing regular, moderate to vigorous physical activities has an inverse relation to morbidity-mortality caused by cardiovascular diseases and obesity. It is essential to identify the determinants of this practice in order to propose strategies for populations to adopt a physically active lifestyle. Objective: To determine the factors associated with practicing physical activity and sedentary lifestyle in the adult population of Goiania. Methods: Multicenter, cross-sectional study, carried out in Goiania with a probabilistic sample of the adult population with landline phones. 2,002 interviews were conducted through phone calls, setting a success rate of 73.1%. The database was built, and statistical analyses were carried out with the support of STATA software, version 8.0. Results: A sedentary lifestyle was more prevalent among women (55.5%) than among men (42.0%). The prevalence of hypertension was lower in individuals practicing physical activity (p=0.0002). Regarding leisure-time physical activity, women were more inactive (79.3%) than men (66.9%). There was an inverse relationship between a sedentary lifestyle and the educational background for both genders. Conclusion: Due to this snapshot, showing a high frequency of sedentary lifestyle in the population, we suggest the implementation of primary prevention strategies to improve the risk profile for noncommunicable chronic diseases.Item Treament and prevention of anemia with ferrous sulfate plus folic acid in children attending daycare centers in Goiânia, Goiás State, Brazil: a randomized controlled trial(2008) Hadler, Maria Claret Costa Monteiro; Sigulem, Dirce Maria; Alves, Maria de Fátima Costa; Torres, Vinicius MontenegroThe objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of anemia and the therapeutic and prophylactic response to ferrous sulfate and fo lic acid. A double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted with 196 children 6 to 24 months of age enrolled in municipal day care centers in Goiânia, Goiás State, Brazil. The children were assigned to two treatment groups that received a daily dose (5 times a week) of ei ther 4.2mg/kg/day of ferrous sulfate + folic acid (50µg) or 4.2mg/kg/day of ferrous sulfate + fo lic acid placebo. One of the prevention groups received 1.4mg/kg/day of ferrous sulfate + folic acid (50µg/day) and the other 1.4mg/kg/day of ferrous sulfate + folic acid placebo. Supplemen tation lasted approximately three months. Base line anemia prevalence was 56.1% (95%CI: 48.9- 63.1). After treatment, anemia prevalence in the folic acid group (14%) was lower than in the placebo group (34.9%) (p = 0.02). After prophy laxis in the non-anemic children, the incidence of anemia did not differ between the groups, but there was an increase in hemoglobin level in the folic acid group (p = 0.003). Iron plus folic acid was effective for the treatment of anemia and improvement of hemoglobin level in non-ane mic children.Item Monitoramento por entrevistas telefônicas de fatores de risco para doenças crônicas: experiência de Goiânia, Goiás, Brasil(2008-06) Peixoto, Maria do Rosario Gondim; Monego, Estelamaris Tronco; Weiss, Veruska Prado Alexandre; Souza, Rávila Graziany Machado de; Moura, Erly Catarina deThis study describes results from a surveillance system for risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases in 2005 in the city of Goiânia, Goiás State, Brazil. A probabilistic sample (n = 2,002) of the adult population living in households with landline telephones was studied by phone interviews. Factors investigated were: food consumption, physical activity, smoking, alcohol intake, self-reported weight and height, and self-reported medical diagnosis of chronic non-communicable diseases. Prevalence and χ2 values were calculated. The data showed: low consumption (< 5 days/week) of fruits and vegetables (47.1%), high rate of physical inactivity at work (86.6%), in commuting (92.6%), and during leisure time (61.9%), high alcohol consumption (36.5%), and high rates of obesity (10.6%), hypertension (22.4%), dyslipidemia (18.4%), and diabetes (4.4%). Most of the factors were inversely related to schooling and directly related to age (p < 0.05). High prevalence of risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases was reported. The advantages of this system were: low operational cost and the ability to monitor trends in chronic non-communicable diseases at the local level.Item Percepção dos coordenadores de curso de Nutrição sobre o Exame Nacional de Desempenho dos Estudantes (Enade/2004)(2009-04) Domene, Semíramis Martins Álvares; Loureiro, Helena Maria Simonard; Pedrosa, Lucia de Fatima Campos; Naves, Maria Margareth Veloso; Diez Garcia, Rosa Wanda; Tuma, Rahilda Conceição Ferreira Brito; Herrmann, Stela MarisAnalyze the perception of the coordinators of Nutrition Graduation Courses about the Brazilian National Examination of Student Performance (Enade/2004) by using a questionnaire which contained eleven questions, being ten objective and one subjective, enclosing the diverse contexts of the exam. The Enade had positive evaluation for the purpose of the social and economic questionnaire; questions selection, quality and comprehensiveness of the questions of general and specific components. According to the coordinators perceptions, the negative aspect of the exam was the probably manner of inducing to a hierarchic classification of the courses, instead of evaluating the student’s performance. These analyses could be proposals for the next examinations, as well as contributions for the improvement of the pedagogic projects of Nutrition Courses and to approaching the superior education in this area.Item (In) segurança alimentar de comunidades quilombolas(2010) Monego, Estelamaris Tronco; Peixoto, Maria do Rosario Gondim; Cordeiro, Mariana de Morais; Costa, Renata MedeirosThis study tried to identify the prevalence and some defining aspects of food (in) security (FS/FI) in the families of fourteen quilombola communities in the state of Tocantins( Brazil). It was studied living conditions, prevalence of food insecurity obtained from Brazilian Scale of Food Insecurity (EBIA) and participation in nutrition and transference income programs. It was studied 696 quilombola families (83,15% from the total identified, which was 837 families). The FI was detected in 589 (85,1%) families. It was observed that 280 (40,2%) houses were made from adobe. Only 177 (25,4%) had: garbage collection; 218 (31,3%) water supply and 59 ( 8,5%) sewage system. 455 (65,6%) families had filtered water and 384 (55,2%) refrigerator. Food donation was received by 314 (45,8%) families and 333 (47,8%) were Programa Bolsa Família’s (PBF) beneficiary. Some practices were related to the FI such as: “burn or bury the trash”, “getting water from pipas trucks or directly from the river or lake”, “the swage be exposed”, “not having refrigerator” and “be a beneficiary of the PBF”. In conclusion, there’s a clearly situation of food insecurity in the quilombola communities, therefore it’s urgent the implementation of some actions in order to guarantee the food security of those families.Item Composição química de nozes e sementes comestíveis e sua relação com a nutrição e saúde(2010-04) Freitas, Jullyana Borges; Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoThis systematic review compares the chemical composition among different types of nuts and edible seeds with regard to nutrients and other bioactive compounds and relates this composition to nutrition and health. This literature review was based on Biological Abstracts, CAB Abstracts, Food Science and Technology Abstracts, Medline and Lilacs, in accordance with the following selection criteria: original research articles published in the last five years in Brazilian or international journals in the fields of Food Science, Medicine I and Medicine II, indexed in the Institute for Scientific Information. The articles were analyzed according to pre-established quality criteria. True nuts (almonds, hazelnuts, chestnuts, cashew nuts, Brazil nuts, macadamia nuts, walnuts and pistachios) and edible seeds (peanuts and baru almonds) are good sources of lipids and proteins. The lipid fractions are composed especially of oleic (C18:1) and linoleic (C18:2) fatty acids, with emphasis on the ω-6 to ω-3 relation in macadamia, walnut, chestnut and baru almond, whose profiles favor the reduction of cardiovascular disease risk. Their proteins present an amino acid profile that meets the requirements of school children and contain more sulfur-containing amino acids than legumes such as beans. These nuts and edible seeds are also good sources of phytoesterols, mainly.β-sitosterol; minerals, particularly calcium, iron, zinc, selenium and potassium; tocopherols, especiallyα-tocopherol; and insoluble fiber. These nutrient-dense foods contain bioactive substances that maximize their beneficial health effects and, for this reason, their study and consumption should be encouraged.Item Qualidade microbiológica, aceitabilidade e valor nutricional de barras de cereais formuladas com polpa e amêndoa de baru(2010-12) Lima, Jean Carlos Rodrigues; Freitas, Jullyana Borges de; Fonseca, Ludmila de Paula Czeder; Fernandes, Daniela Canuto; Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoThe aim of this study was to evaluate the microbiological quality, the acceptability and the nutritional characteristics of cereal bars made with pulp and almond of the baru (native fruit from Brazilian Savanna). The fruits were collected in the East and South East Regions from Goiás state, in August 2008. The formulations of cereal bars were prepared with fixed proportion of almond in replacement to the nuts and dried fruits, and increasing proportions of baru pulp (0%, 5% and 10%) in replacement to the oat bran. The cereal bars were evaluate for microbiological quality through counts of coliforms, Bacillus cereus, positive Staphylococci coagulase and Salmonella, and for the overall acceptance, appearance and purchase intent. The accepted bars were submitted to the analysis of centesimal composition, including total dietary fiber and its fractions (soluble and insoluble). All the samples were in accordance with the microbiological standard for food. The cereal bars had good overall acceptance and good levels of purchase intent, and showed levels of carbohydrates and lipids similar to the commercial cereal bars and high protein content (10.64 g/100 g), due to the addition of baru almond, a source of protein and lipids of good nutritional quality. Cereal bars made with the pulp and almond of the baru are source of energy, proteins and carbohydrates and present a high level of dietary fiber (15.72 g/100 g). The full utilization of baru in processed foods adds value to the fruit and nutritional quality to the product, contributing to the sustainable use of this native fruit.Item Feijão macerado: alternativa para melhorar a qualidade nutricional(2011-12) Fernandes, Daniela Canuto; Souza, Elizane Melo de; Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoBean protein is deficient in sulfur amino acids and has reduced digestibility, mainly due to the poliphenols and phytates present in the grain. The soaking process may reduce the content of these substances and, thus improving protein digestibility. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the soaking process on bean protein quality. Common beans (cv Carioca) were soaked before cooking over two periods of time (4 hours and 12 hours), in the proportion of 1:3 (grain:water) and another bean sample was cooked without soaking. An experiment with Wistar rats was carried out and bean protein quality was estimated by means of Net Protein Ratio (NPR) and Net Protein Utilization (NPU). Soaking process during 4 h was sufficient to reduce in a half the bean cooking time. Soaking for 12 hours improved the protein quality of the beans. Thus, the soaking process may improve the protein intake of poor community.Item Consumo alimentar e perfil antropométrico de bailarinos de uma companhia de dança contemporânea de Goiânia, Goiás(2011-12) Jacintho, Carolina Lôbo de Almeida Barros; Hadler, Maria Claret Costa MonteiroObjective This study assessed the dietary intake and anthropometric profile of professional and semi-professional groups of dancers, compared the body composition of males and females and analyzed the adequacy of food intake with respect to their requirements. Methods The sample consisted of 16 dancers of both genders aged 20 to 35 years from an international contemporary dance company of Goiânia (GO). The following were collected: weight; height; chest, axilla, triceps, subscapular, abdomen, suprailiac and front thigh skinfold thicknesses; and two 24-hour dietary recalls. The energy requirements were determined by the United States Institute of Medicine and macronutrient requirements by the American College of Sports Medicine. The data were input in the software Epi Info 6.04 and analyzed by the software Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 18.0. The Shapiro-Wilk, Mann Whitney and Wilcoxon tests were used and the significance level was set to 5%. Results The only body measurement that differed between the groups was triceps skinfold thickness among women, which was smaller in the professional group (p=0.03). Triceps and front thigh (p<0.001), chest (p=0.007) and suprailiac (p=0.009) skinfold thicknesses differed between genders (p<0.001), being greater among women. Both men (p=0.01) and women (p=0.02) were consuming less energy than their requirements. Conclusion There were no significant differences in the body composition of individuals of the same gender. Triceps, chest, suprailiac and thigh skinfold thicknesses and percentage of body fat were higher in women. Energy, carbohydrate and protein intakes were below the recommended amounts.Item Análise das capacidades físicas em crianças dos sete aos dez anos de idade(2012) Borba, Diego Alcantara; Ferreira Júnior, João; Martini, Angelo Ruediger Pisani; Coelho, Leonardo Nogueira; Coelho, Daniel Barbosa; Vieira, Carlos AlexandrePhysical performance is the term used to group strength, speed, endurance, flexibility and coordination capacities. The physical performance in the children is concern among experts in the field of health. This interest justified because physical activity can prevent illness and increase functional capacity. The aim of present study was assessment physical capacity in children of both sex, boys and girls. After consent of parents, concerns of study 232 children among seven and 10 years-old of both sexes. The performance motor was assessment using sit-and-reach, horizontal jump, abdominal endurance and 30 meters tests run. ANOVA Two-way and Tukey post hoc was used to compared variables among sex and ages. The significant level was 5%. Flexibility did not differ among ages and sex. The horizontal jump distance and abdominals number were higher in male group compared to the female group and eight, nine and 10 years-old were higher compared to seven years-old. The abdominals number was higher in male group compared to female group and eight, nine and 10 years-old are higher compared to seven years-old. The time to going 30 meters was small in the male group compared to female group and running time was small in the 10 years-old compared to other ages and the nine and eight years-old was small than seven years-old. In general, the boys presented better performance than girls in the ages assessment. The age seven years-old apparent represented a period of transition in the physical performance.Item Gérmen com pericarpo de milho desengordurado na formulação de biscoitos tipo cookie(2012-04) Gomes, Luciana de Oliveira Froes; Teles, Maria Amélia de Oliveira Falqueto; Castro, Maiza Vieira Leão de; Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoThe germ with pericarp, byproduct of corn grain processing, has a high nutritional value, but is little used in food. Our objectives were to analyze the chemical composition of the defatted corn germ with pericarp (DCG) and to develop formulations, to evaluate the acceptability and to analyze the chemical composition of cookies with DCG. The proximal composition of DCG and of cookies was determined, and the mineral content and the essential amino acid score (EAE) were analyzed in DCG, according to standard methods of the literature. Cookies with 0% (control), 50% (B50) and 100% (B100) of replacement of oat bran for DCG were formulated. The sensory analysis was performed by using hedonic scale of nine points. The DCG is source of protein (11.7g 100g-1) with optimal amino acid profile (EAE=1.26), and it is rich in dietary fiber (28.9g 100g-1), iron and zinc (5mg 100g-1). All cookies were sensorially accepted (overall acceptance and appearance), and the cookie B50 was more accepted than the B100. The cookies with DCG are source of proteins (12.5g 100g-1) and contain high levels of dietary fiber (10.0g 100g-1). The use of DCG in the formulation of the based-cereal foods increased the nutritional value of these products and can to add value to this byproduct of the corn grain processing.Item Prevalência e fatores associados à obesidade abdominal em pacientes em hemodiálise em Goiânia - GO(2013) Freitas, Ana Tereza Vaz de Souza; Vaz, Inaiana Marques Filizola; Ferraz, Sanzia Francisca; Peixoto, Maria do Rosario Gondim; Campos, Marta Isabel Valente Augusto Moraes; Fornés, Nélida Antonia Schmid deIntroduction: The presence of excess weight, especially visceral obesity contributes to the increased risk of metabolic and cardiovascular complications in patients with chronic kidney disease. Objective: To determine the prevalence and associated factors with abdominal obesity in patients on hemodialysis (HD). Methods: Cross-sectional study with 344 patients older than 18 years. Abdominal obesity was defined as waist circunference ≥ 94 cm in men and ≥ 80 cm in women. The independent variables involved socioeconomic, demographic, lifestyle, duration of HD, food consumption and body mass index (BMI). The analysis of associated factors was performed by multiple Poisson regression, remaining in the final model variables with p < 0.05. Results: The prevalence of abdominal obesity was 44.77% and was more prevalent in women (55.71%) than in men (37.25%), p = 0.001. The end result of the multivariate analysis identified factors associated with abdominal obesity in men and women: age over 40 years, protein intake below 1.2 g/kg/day and BMI ≥ 25 kg/m². In men the economic class D/E remained associated with abdominal obesity, p < 0.05. Conclusion: There was a high prevalence of abdominal obesity in hemodialysis patients. Age greater than 40 years, lower socioeconomic classes, below the recommended protein intake and overweight were associated with abdominal obesity.Item Caracterização física e química, fenólicos totais e atividade antioxidante da polpa e resíduo de gabiroba(2013-09) Santos, Aline Medeiros Alves; Alves, Maressa Stephanie Ovidio; Fernandes, Thaís de Oliveira; Naves, Ronaldo Veloso; Naves, Maria Margareth VelosoThe Brazilian Cerrado has a wide range of fruit species that have not been sufficiently studied regarding their physical, chemical and functional characteristics. This study aimed to measure the physical characteristics of gabiroba tree’s fruits and analyze the proximate and mineral compositions, total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of the gabiroba pulp and residue. The physical characteristics of greatest variability were pulp and fruit mass, especially the high pulp yield (46.24%). Gabiroba pulp and residue have high moisture and dietary fiber contents and considerable iron amounts. The gabiroba residue showed higher content of phenolic compounds (1787.65 mg AGE.100g-1) and antioxidant activity (197.13 μmol TE.g-1) than the pulp. However, the values observed in the gabiroba pulp (1222.59 mg AGE.100g-1 and 107.96 μmol TE.g-1, respectively) are higher than those of many fruits traditionally consumed. The total phenolic content showed a strong correlation (r = 0.9723) with antioxidant activity. The results indicate promising prospects for the use of the whole fruit of gabiroba tree due to its appreciable content of nutrients and phenolic compounds, and its antioxidant activity.
