ABSTRACT
Abstract The aim of this study was to make a comparison between fatigue and eating disorders in professional dancers in Brazil. Overall, 108 Classical Ballet or Contemporary Dance dancers (28.6 ± 7.7 years) (49 women and 59 men) of companies from São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul participated in this study. The following validated instruments were used (Eating Attitudes Test; Bulimic Inventory Test Edinburgh; Yoshitake Fatigue Questionnaire, general Information).

Results:

16% of dancers have symptoms of anorexia; 25% in the symptomatic bulimia scale and 30% in the bulimia scale. Significant data were identified in the comparison of bulimia nervosa scales with fatigue domains; on the symptomatic scale with drowsiness and lack of attention at work domain (p = 0.015), on the severity scale with fatigue projections to the body domain (p = 0.014), and in both scales in the impaired concentration and attention domain (p = 0.003 and p = 0.047) and in the general fatigue score (p = 0.016). Dancers with higher scores for difficulty in concentration and attention are 1.558 (95% CI 1.113 to 2.179) times more likely to have symptoms of bulimia. This study showed that there is a relationship between fatigue and symptoms of bulimia.
RESUMO
Resumo Objetivou-se realizar uma comparação entre fadiga e transtornos alimentares em bailarinos profissionais do Brasil. Participaram 108 bailarinos (49 mulheres e 59 homens), de Ballet Clássico ou Dança Contemporânea (28,6±7,7 anos), de companhias de São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais e Rio Grande do Sul. Utilizaram-se instrumentos validados (Teste de Atitudes Alimentares; Bulimic Inventory Test Edinburgh; Questionário de Fadiga de Yoshitake; Informações gerais). Notou-se que 16% dos bailarinos possuem sintomas de transtornos de anorexia; 25% na escala sintomática de bulimia e 30% na escala de gravidade da bulimia. Identificou-se dados significativos na comparação das escalas da bulimia nervosa com os domínios da fadiga; na escala sintomática com domínio sonolência e falta de atenção no trabalho (p=0,015), na escala de gravidade com domínio projeções da fadiga ao corpo (p=0,014), e em ambas as escalas no domínio dificuldade de concentração e atenção (p=0,003 e p=0,047) e no escore de fadiga geral (p=0,016). Bailarinos com maiores escores para dificuldade de concentração e atenção possuem 1,558 (IC95%=1,113–2,179) vezes mais chances de apresentarem sintomas de bulimia. Conclui-se neste estudo, que há relação entre fadiga e sintomas de bulimia nervosa.
