ABSTRACT

Avaliar a relação entre a alteração do comportamento alimentar, associado à insatisfação com a imagem corporal, e o estado nutricional de universitárias de Nutrição. Realizou-se um estudo transversal com 175 universitárias do Curso de Nutrição (ENUT/UFOP). Foram aplicados os questionários Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) e o Body Shape Questionare (BSQ) e realizadas medidas antropométricas. 21,7% das estudantes apresentaram alto risco para transtornos alimentares e 13,7% apresentaram insatisfação com a imagem corporal. A maioria das estudantes com BSQ e EAT-26 positivos estava eutrófica. As estudantes com excesso de peso, aumento do percentual de gordura corporal (% GC) e do perímetro da cintura (PC) apresentaram risco 5 a 9 vezes maiores de alteração do comportamento alimentar. Houve associação positiva entre os parâmetros antropométricos com a pontuação dos questionários EAT-26 e BSQ. Futuras nutricionistas com excesso de peso apresentaram maior risco de estarem insatisfeitas com a sua imagem corporal e de desenvolverem transtornos alimentares. A utilização de outros parâmetros antropométricos, além do IMC, pode ser útil na triagem de indivíduos suscetíveis ao surgimento de preocupações excessivas com o peso corporal e a alimentação.


The scope of this paper was to evaluate the relationship between changes in eating behavior associated with dissatisfaction with body image, and the nutritional status of female university students of nutrition. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 175 female students of nutrition (ENUT/UFOP). The Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26) and Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) were applied and anthropometric measurements were taken. 21.7% of the students were found to be high risk in terms of eating disorders, and 13.7% declared dissatisfaction with their body image. The majority of students with positive results in the BSQ and EAT-26 tests were eutrophic. The students who were overweight, with elevated body fat percentage (% BF) and waist circumference (WC) had a 5-9 times greater risk of change in eating habits. There was a positive association between the anthropometric parameters with high scores in the EAT-26 and BSQ questionnaires. The future dietitians who are overweight, with increased body fat and waist circumference were more likely to be dissatisfied with their body image and develop eating disorders. The use of other anthropometric parameters, in addition to BMI, may prove useful in screening individuals susceptible to the emergence of excessive concerns with weight and diet.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Identificar a influência do consumo de bebidas alcoólicas na adiposidade corporal de universitárias. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se um estudo transversal com universitárias do curso de Nutrição da Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (MG). O perfil de uso do álcool foi avaliado pelo AUDIT e a adiposidade foi avaliada pelo índice de massa corporal, percen-tual de gordura corporal, circunferência da cintura, circunferência do braço, dobra cutânea triciptal e razão cintura-quadril. RESULTADOS: O consumo de bebidas foi relatado por 141 alunas, sendo que 56 por cento (n = 79) fazem uso nocivo de álcool (AUDIT > 8). Os valores médios do percentual de gordura corporal, da circunferência da cintura e da dobra cutânea triciptal foram maiores entre as alunas que relataram consumir bebidas alcoólicas (p < 0,05). Valores médios de circunferência do braço e dobra cutânea triciptal foram maiores entre as alunas que relataram uso nocivo de álcool. Houve associação positiva entre a pontuação do AUDIT e os parâmetros de adiposidade corporal (para percentual de gordura corporal, r = 0,20; p = 0,03); abdominal (para circunferência da cintura, r = 0,29; p = 0,01) e periférica (para circunferência do braço, r = 0,28; p = 0,02, e para dobra cutânea triciptal, r = 0,23;p = 0,007). CONCLUSÃO: O consumo de álcool pode ter influenciado na maior adiposidade entre as universitárias que relataram consumir bebidas alcoólicas. A adiposidade periférica foi maior entre as universitárias que relataram uso nocivo de álcool.


OBJECTIVE: To identify the influence of alcohol intake on body adiposity of female college students. METHODS: Female students attending the Nutrition College Course of Universidade Federal de Ouro Preto (MG, Brazil) were the subjects of a transversal study. The pattern of alcohol consumption was evaluated by using the AUDIT questionnaire and the adiposity was evaluated by body mass index, percentage body fat, waist circumference, arm circumference, triceps skin-fold thickness and waist-to-hip ratio. RESULTS: Alcohol consumption was reported by 141 students. Among them, harmful alcohol use (AUDIT > 8) was reported by 56 percent (n = 79). Mean values of percentage body fat, waist circumference and triceps skin-fold thickness were higher among students who reported any alcohol consumption (p < 0.05). Values of arm circumference and triceps skin-fold thickness were increased among those with a drinking problem. There was a positive association between AUDIT scores and parameters of body adiposity (percentage body fat, r = 0.20; p = 0.03); abdominal adiposity (waist circumference, r = 0.29; p = 0.01) and peripheral adiposity (arm circum-ference, r = 0.28; p = 0.02, and triceps skin-fold thickness, r = 0.23; p = 0.07). CONCLUSION: Alcohol consumption may have increased the body adiposity among students reporting alcohol intake. Peripheral adiposity was higher among those in which this intake was harmful.
