RESUMO
El mundo ha convulsionado por la pandemia ocasionada por el coronavirus (COVID-19) que fuese reportado en diciembre de 2019 desde Wuhan-China, este virus tiene altas tasas de contagio y ocasiona severas enfermedades respiratorias e inclusive la muerte. Ante esta crisis, el confinamiento ha permitido controlar eficazmente la propagación. El impacto negativo sobre el estilo de vida constituye un nuevo factor de riesgo para el estado nutricional y de salud. Objetivo: Describir el estado de salud y nutrición de los/as nutricionistas durante el confinamiento por la covid-19: desde una perspectiva de género. Materiales y métodos: En este contexto, se desarrolló un estudio descriptivo, transversal y enfoque cuantitativo, para indagar algunas variables: sociodemográficas, económicas, condición de salud, y estado nutricional. Se aplicó una encuesta estructurada online dirigida a 359 nutricionistas graduados hasta el 28 de agosto de 2020 en la Universidad Técnica del Norte. Se usaron los correos electrónicos del Sistema Integrado Informático Universitario (SIIU). La muestra aleatoria fue de 136 profesionales, 95% de confianza (error = 6,7%). Resultados: El 79,41% fueron mujeres en su mayoría menores de 30 años y 20,59% hombres mayores de 30 años. El 59,56% tiene empleo, 23,52% en el área de salud. Los ingresos económicos de la mayor parte de hombres superan los 788 dólares. El 38,97% de la muestra tiene sobrepeso y el riesgo cardio metabólico afecta al 71,43% de hombres y 47,22% de mujeres, cerca del 25% poseen al menos una enfermedad crónica como: sobrepeso, hipotiroidismo, depresión/ansiedad e hipertensión arterial. El 32% tuvo familiares con Covid-19 de los cuales un 19,6% fallecieron. Conclusión: Los nutricionistas se han visto afectados en su situación laboral, económica, social y de salud(AU)

In the face of this crisis, confinement has made it possible to effectively control the spread. The negative impact on lifestyle constitutes a new risk factor for nutritional and health status. Objective: To describe the state of health and nutrition of nutritionists during confinement due to covid-19: from a gender perspective. Materials and methods: In this context, a descriptive, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach was developed to investigate some variables: sociodemographic, economic, health condition, and nutritional status. An online structured survey was applied to 359 nutritionists graduated until August 28, 2020 at the Universidad Técnica del Norte. The emails of the Integrated University Information System (SIIU) were used. The random sample was 136 professionals, 95% confidence (error = 6.7%). Results: 79.41% were women, mostly under 30 years of age, and 20.59% were men over 30 years of age. 59.56% have a job, 23.52% in the health area.

Objective To estimate the prevalence and distribution of metabolic syndrome (MS) in Chinese adults.Methods Cross-sectional data on 104 098 men and women aged 18 years or above was gathered from 150 monitoring sites from 31 provinces,autonomous regions,and municipalities from the China National Health and Nutrition Surveillance (2010-2012) Project.Data was randomly selected by multi-stage stratified and Probability Proportionate to Size (PPS) cluster random sampling method.Prevalence of MS was defined under the diagnostic criteria of China Diabetes Society (CDS).Complex sampling weighing method was used with demographic data released by the National Bureau of Statistics of China in 2009,when calculating the prevalence and its 95％CI of MS.Results The overall prevalence rate of the MS among adults was 11.0％,more seen in urban than in rural areas,and in men than in women.The prevalence showed a parallel increasing trend with age.As was observed in the comparison between the prevalence of four components of MS,the prevalence rates of dyslipidemia (33.7％) and overweight or obesity (32.3％) showed more serious than in hypertension (22.4％) or hyperglycemia (16.2％).Conclusion The prevalence of MS among adults in China showed an increasing trend which had already become a significant public health problem,in the country.
