ABSTRACT

The objective of this study was to determine the presence of symptoms of depression, anxiety and low self-esteem in women with obesity and binge eating disorder. 60 women using the primary health care system in Lautaro were selected. Within the inclusion criteria were identified diagnosis of nutritional obesity and the presence of binge eating disorder without medical and mental disorders. Depression Scale Anxiety of Goldberg and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were applied individually. For descriptive analysis results were used, through a frequency distribution and chi² test. Among the findings it was noted that this group had mostly symptoms of depression and anxiety, which correlates with the literature. However, low self-esteem, which contrasts with the evidence examined, was not observed. This study shows that obesity is not just a simple symptom, but there are psychopathological backgrounds like depression and anxiety to consider, which should be incorporated into the comprehensive diagnosis in its primary health care plan for later multidisciplinary intervention.


El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la presencia de sintomatología de depresión, ansiedad y baja autoestima en mujeres con obesidad y trastorno del comedor compulsivo. Se seleccionaron a 60 mujeres usuarias del sistema de atención primaria de salud de la comuna de Lautaro. Dentro de los criterios de inclusión se determinaron: diagnóstico nutricional de obesidad, sin patologías médicas y mentales diagnosticadas y la presencia del Trastorno del Comedor Compulsivo. Se les aplicaron aplicaron de manera individual la Escala de Depresión y de Ansiedad de Goldberg y la Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg. Para los resultados se utilizó un análisis descriptivo, a través de una distribución de frecuencias y una prueba de chi². Se observó que este grupo mayoritariamente si presentaba sintomatología de depresión y ansiedad, que se correlaciona con la literatura. Sin embargo, no se observó una baja autoestima, que se contrapone con los antecedentes analizados. Este estudio, nos muestra que la obesidad no es tan sólo un síntoma aislado, sino que existen antecedentes psicopatológicos a considerar: como depresión y ansiedad, el cual se debería incorporar dentro del diagnóstico integral en el equipo de atención primaria de salud para un posterior plan de intervención multidisciplinario.

ABSTRACT

CONTEXTO: A maioria dos estudos que relacionam transtornos alimentares com sexualidade diz respeito à anorexia nervosa e à bulimia nervosa, sendo escassos aqueles que estudam conjuntamente a sexualidade com o comer compulsivo. OBJETIVO: Verificar a presença de disfunções sexuais, impulso sexual excessivo e alterações na percepção da imagem corporal de mulheres obesas, além de comparar portadoras a não portadoras de transtorno da compulsão alimentar periódica (TCAP) quanto a esses aspectos. MÉTODOS: Participaram do estudo dois grupos de 20 mulheres obesas cada, com as não portadoras apresentando média etária de 29,80 ± 6,15 anos e de IMC de 35,12 ± 4,59 kg/m², e as portadoras apresentando 34,70 ± 9,62 anos e 37,27 ± 2,89 kg/m². RESULTADOS: Em relação à imagem corporal, os dois instrumentos utilizados mostraram diferença significante entre os grupos, com as portadoras de TCAP sentindo-se menos atraentes (13,6 ± 3,2 vs. 15,6 ± 2,3; p = 0,047), mais gordas (55,2 ± 4,6 vs. 50,0 ± 3,6; p = 0,001) e menos aptas fisicamente (14,1 ± 2,3 vs. 16,5 ± 3,9; p = 0,036), conforme resultados do Body Attitudes Questionnaire (BAQ). O escore do Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) também mostrou pior condição para as portadoras de TCAP (146,05 ± 22,63 vs. 114,47 ± 19,50; p = 0,000). Já o comportamento sexual não mostrou associação com a obesidade nem diferença estatisticamente significante entre os grupos, apontando apenas uma tendência de maior risco para disfunção sexual entre as portadoras de TCAP, conforme resultados obtidos pelo Golombok-Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS). CONCLUSÃO: Obesas portadoras de TCAP apresentaram mais frequentemente alterações de imagem corporal e devem ser mais bem investigadas quanto à presença de disfunções sexuais.


BACKGROUND: Most studies that relate eating disorders to sexuality concerns anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, and there are few studies about sexuality and binge eating disorder (BED) together. OBJECTIVE: To verify the presence of sexual dysfunction, excessive sexual drive and changes in the perception of body image in obese women, in addition to compare obese women with and without BED on these aspects. METHODS: There were two groups of 20 obese women each, with BED of 29.80 ± 6.15 years old and BMI of 35.12 ± 4.59 kg/m², and without BED of 34.70 ± 9.62 years old and 37.27 ± 2.89 kg/m². RESULTS: In relation to body image, the two instruments used showed significant difference between groups, with the women with BED are feeling less attractive (13.6 + 3.2 vs. 15.6 ± 2.3, p = 0047 ), more fat (55.2 ± 4.6 vs. 50.0 ± 3.6, p = 0.001) and less physically fit (14.1 ± 2.3 vs. 16.5 ± 3.9, p = 0036), as results of the Body Attitudes Questionnaire (BAQ). The score of the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) also showed the worst condition for carrying BED (146.05 ± 22.63 vs. 114.47 ± 19.50, p = 0.000). The sexual behavior showed no association with obesity or statistically significant difference between groups, showing only a trend of higher risk for sexual dysfunction among women with BED, as results of the Golombok-Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS). DISCUSSION: Obese women with BED showed more often changes in body image and should be better investigated for the presence of sexual dysfunctions.
