Item Influência dos níveis pressóricos, estado nutricional e atividade física sobre a qualidade de vida de hipertensos muito idosos(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2015-02-23) Araújo, Samantha Pereira; Jardim, Paulo César Brandão Veiga; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2292209583823133; Jardim, Thiago de Souza Veiga; Sousa, Ana Luiza Lima; Jardim, Paulo César Brandão VeigaThe aim of this study was to analise the influence of blood pressure control, nutritional status and level of physical activity in the quality of life of very elderly hypertensive patients. Cross-sectional study with forty-one oldest old patients (over 80 years), both males and females, followed at a reference center for hypertension treatment in a midwest brazilian City. A survey questionnaire about sociodemographic and lifestyle variables was applied. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and the Medical Outcomes Study SF-36 item Short Form Health Survey (SF 36) were also used to evaluate the Quality of Life. Blood pressure and anthropometric variables were measured. Fisher test, t test, chi-square and Mann-Whitney-U test were performed. The significance level was 5% and confidence interval was 95% for all tests. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the institution. Low educational levels and low income were found in the sample. Only 7.3% of the patients referred alcohol consumption and no one was a smoker. Smoking and alcohol intake showed differences between gender and was higher among men (p=0.002, p<0.001). Almost half of participants (46.3%) were overweight according to body mass index and 80,5% had increased waist circumference. Controled blood pressure were verified in 73.2% of the sample. Moderate and intense physical activity levels were observed on 46.3% of the participants. Nutritional status and physical activity level did not influence blood pressure control. The quality of life associated with the physical aspects was better in men (p=0,044). Physically active oldest old had better score for functional capacity in the SF 36 (p=0.007). Social, emotional and mental health domains obtained the highest scores for quality of life. Blood pressure control and nutritional status did not affect quality of life. These findings may contribute to health planning, with promotion of public policies for seniors. More studies should be conducted in the future in order to clarify the main factors for promoting longevity with quality of life.Item Peso ao nascer e sua associação com pressão arterial e estado nutricional na adolescência(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2013-12-13) Ferreira, Vanessa Roriz; Peixoto, Maria do Rosário Gondim; Jardim, Paulo César Brandão Veiga; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2292209583823133Individuals with extreme birth weights, consequence of inadequate intrauterine development, are prone to developing diseases in adult life, phenomenon called “programming” or “fetal origin of diseases hypothesis”. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between birth weight, blood pressure and nutritional status of adolescents. It is a cross-sectional study performed in Goiânia/GO in 2010-2011. The study analyzed 829 adolescents, aged between 12 and 18, enrolled in public and private schools of the capital city. It was investigated birth weight, blood pressure, through four office measurements and through home blood pressure and nutritional status, through body mass index by age, height index for the age and waist circumference. Low (< 2.5 kg) and high birth weight (≥ 4 kg) prevalence in this population was 8.7% and 9.0%, respectively. Overweight presented high prevalence in both genders (22.9%), more sharply in boys (29.2%), compared to girls (18.1%) (p<0.01). Low weight reached less than 4% of adolescents, with similar expression between genders. Mild low height occurred in approximately 6% of adolescents, with considerable predominance in females (7.9%) in regard to males (3.9%) (p<0.018). Higher office blood pressure frequency in boys (11.0%) when compared to girls (6.6%) (p=0,029) was observed. Alterations in home blood pressure (3.8%) were significantly below those observed for office blood pressure (8.5%). Low height odds ratio was 2.4 times higher among adolescents with low birth weight (IC 95%= 1.1-5.1; p=0.027). In the simple linear regression analysis, for each 100 g increase in birth weight, height increased by 0.33 cm (IC 95%= 0.23-0.43; p<0.01). After multiple analysis, the increase was of 0.28 cm (IC 95%=0.18-0.37; p<0.01). Birth weight did not influence the blood pressure (office and home) of adolescents (p>0.05). Initially, birth weight elevation increased the body mass index and the waist circumference of adolescents, however, this relation was not sustained statistically significant after adjustment for confounding variables. It is concluded that birth weight is associated to height in adolescence, reinforcing the plausibility of fetal programming. In this perspective, maternal health promotion, focusing on adequate nutrition and prenatal, would increase the survival chance of the newborn and avoid growth problems in childhood and adolescence.
