ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Investigar las discrepancias somáticas, bioquímicas y de presión arterial según el peso al nacer. Material y métodos: Se estudiaron 53 jóvenes que nacieron con peso < 2500 g y 100 jóvenes con peso normal. Variables: somatometría, presión arterial, y concentraciones en suero de glucosa, insulina, colesterol y triglicéridos. Se estudió la presencia de resistencia a la insulina y de síndrome metabólico. Resultados: Los varones nacidos con peso normal tuvieron mayor colesterol en suero, pliegue tricipital y resistencia a la insulina. Las diferencias en resistencia a la insulina persistieron por razón de momios. En los de peso bajo al nacer, a menor peso mayor concentración de glucosa. Se encontró sobrepeso obesidad en 30% (46/153) y síndrome metábólico en 10% (14/140): la frecuencia de éste aumentó con el IMC; de 2% (2/100) en eutróficos a 30 % (12/40) en quienes tenían sobrepeso obesidad. Conclusiones: Los hallazgos resaltan la magnitud de la adiposidad y del síndrome metabólico en jóvenes.


Objective: To investigate in young people differences among somatic measurements, biochemical issues and arterial tension, according to weight at birth. Material and methods: 53 youth born with body weight <2500 g, and 100 born with normal weight were studied. Variables: somatic measurements, arterial pressure, glucose, insulin, cholesterol and triglycerides. Insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome were also evaluated. Results: Men born with normal weight had higher cholesterol and resistance to insulin. Differences persisted for odds ratio. Those born with <2500 g had a negative correlation among weight at birth and glucose level. Overweight-obesity was found in 30.0% (46/153) and the metabolic syndrome in 10% (14/140); the frequency of this syndrome increased with the IMC was higher: from 2.0% (2/100) in eutrophics to 30% (12/40) in those with overweight-obesity. Conclusions: The findings stand out the magnitude of the adiposity and of the metabolic syndrome in youths.
