ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective To identify the association between dietary patterns and nutritional status in adolescent freshmen at a public university in Northeastern Brazil. Methods In this cross-sectional study anthropometric variables, body composition and food intake were collected and assessed using the food frequency questionnaire. Dietary patterns were evaluated through factor analysis using the principal component extraction method. Results Two dietary patterns were identified: "Western" pattern, consisting of foods with high energy density and low nutritional value, and the "traditional Brazilian" pattern, with foods from Brazilian cuisine such as rice, beans, corn, roots and tubers, fruits, greens and vegetables. The multiple regression analysis revealed a negative association between the "traditional Brazilian" pattern and both excess weight and body fat in females. Conclusion A healthy dietary pattern with typical local cuisine foods can offer protection to health and should be encouraged.


RESUMO Objetivo Identificar a associação entre padrões alimentares e estado nutricional em adolescentes recém-ingressos em uma universidade pública do Nordeste brasileiro. Métodos Neste estudo transversal foram coletados dados antropométricos, composição corporal e consumo alimentar, verificado pelo questionário de frequência alimentar. Os padrões alimentares foram derivados através da análise fatorial pelo método de extração de componentes principais. Resultados Dois padrões alimentares foram identificados: o padrão "Ocidental", composto por alimentos de elevada densidade energética e de baixo valor nutricional, e o padrão "tradicional brasileiro", contendo alimentos da culinária brasileira como arroz, feijão, milho, raízes e tubérculos, frutas, verduras e legumes. A análise de regressão múltipla mostrou associação negativa entre o excesso de peso e de gordura corporal e o padrão alimentar "tradicional brasileiro" no sexo feminino. Conclusão Um padrão alimentar saudável e com alimentos típicos da culinária local pode conferir proteção à saúde, devendo ser incentivado.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective To assess linear growth and weight gain in infants with suspected cow's milk protein allergy with gastrointestinal manifestations, seen at a gastropediatrics clinic. Methods A retrospective cohort study conducted with demographic, clinical, anthropometric and dietary information on 84 infants first seen between 2015 and 2018 and followed-up for six months. Stature-for-age, weight-for-age, and body mass index-for-age in z-scores were evaluated according to the cut off points established by the World Health Organization in 2006. Accelerated growth or catch-up was considered a gain ?0.67 in the z-score of the referred indices, evaluated at 3 and 6 months. Results Median age at baseline was 4.0 months and 88.1% of the infants were already in diet exclusion. Regarding the anthropometric evaluation short stature frequency was 15.5% and the underweight frequency was 8.3% and 3.6% respectively based on the weight-for-age and body mass index-for-age indices. High recovery growth was observed during the follow-up period but was not considered catch up. In boys, the gains in weight-for-age and body mass index-for-age were significant (p=0.02 and p=0.01 respectively) and close to the threshold that characterizes the catch up, 0.58 and 0.59, respectively. In girls, significant gains in stature-for-age and weight-for-age (0.38 and 0.37 respectively, p=0.02 for both) were observed. Conclusion Infants with suspected cow's milk protein allergy with gastrointestinal manifestations should have early access to specialized nutritional counseling to avoid exposure to allergenic food and control allergy symptoms, thereby avoiding malnutrition and ensuring adequate nutritional recovery.


RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar o crescimento linear e o ganho de peso de lactentes com suspeita de alergia à proteína do leite de vaca, com manifestações gastrointestinais, atendidos em um ambulatório de gastropediatria. Métodos Estudo de coorte retrospectivo, com informações demográficas, clínicas, antropométricas e dietéticas de 84 lactentes que iniciaram atendimento entre 2015 e 2018 e foram acompanhados durante seis meses. Foram avaliados os índices estatura/idade, peso/idade e índice de massa corporal/idade em escore-z, segundo os pontos de corte da Organização Mundial de Saúde de 2006. Considerou-se crescimento acelerado (ou catch-up growth) um ganho ?0,67 escore-z nos referidos índices, avaliados em três e seis meses. Resultados No baseline, a mediana de idade foi 4,0 meses e 88,1% dos lactentes já estavam em dieta de exclusão. A frequência de baixa estatura foi de 15,5% e a de baixo peso foi de 8,3% e de 3,6% segundo os índices peso/idade e índice de massa corporal/idade, respectivamente. Houve elevado crescimento de recuperação durante o período de acompanhamento, mas que não configurou catch up. Nos meninos, ganhos no peso/idade e índice de massa corporal/idade foram significantes (p=0,02 e p=0,01) e próximos do limiar que caracteriza catch up: 0,58 e 0,59, respectivamente. Nas meninas, foram observados ganhos significantes na estatura/idade e peso/idade, de 0,38 e 0,37 (p=0,02 para ambos). Conclusão Demonstrou-se que lactentes com suspeita de alergia à proteína do leite de vaca, com manifestações gastrointestinais, deveriam ter acesso precoce ao aconselhamento nutricional para evitar exposição ao alimento alergênico, controlar sintomas e, assim, evitar a desnutrição ou garantir recuperação nutricional adequada.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the food habits, nutritional status and quality of life of patients in the postoperative period of bariatric surgery to Fobi-Capella. METHODS: Analytical cross-sectional study was conducted with 66 patients underwent bariatric surgery and monitoring by the staff of the Hospital Universitario Oswaldo Cruz (HUOC), in northeast Brazil. A questionnaire was applied in witch was covered sociodemographic characteristics, and demographic information related to eating habits, and also evaluated the quality of life by the method BAROS. RESULTS: The tolerance to food, the category "hardly eaten" were reported food such as meat, chicken, rice, raw salad and corn meal and that "not eaten" were corn meal, followed by sweets, meat and chicken. There was a reduction of total body weight and BMI and, consequently, the increase in PEP% over time. Regarding quality of life, it can be observed which is classified as "good" for most patients in both groups of 6-18 months and ≥ 18 months. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that bariatric surgery showed satisfactory effects in this population, however the need for continuous nutritional education work, especially in groups of more than 18 months postoperatively (AU)


Objetivo: Caracterizar los hábitos alimenticios, el estado nutricional y la calidad de vida de pacientes en el periodo posoperatorio de la cirugía bariátrica de Fobi-Capella. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio analítico transversal en 66 pacientes sometidos a cirugía bariátrica y monitorizados por el personal del Hospital Universitario Oswaldo Cruz (HUOC), en el noreste de Brasil. Se aplicó un cuestionario que contemplaba características sociodemográficas e información demográfica relativa a los hábitos alimenticios, y también se evaluaba la calidad de vida por el método BAROS. Resultados: En la tolerancia a los alimentos, en la categoría de «difícil de comer» se notificaron alimentos tales como carne, pollo, arroz, ensalada cruda y maíz y en la «no ingeridos» estaban maíz, seguido de caramelos, carne y pollo. Hubo una reducción del peso corporal total y del IMC y, en consecuencia, un aumento del PEP% con el tiempo. Con respecto a la calidad de vida, se pudo observar que la mayor parte de los pacientes la clasificaron como «buena» en ambos grupos de 6-18 meses y de > 18 meses. Conclusiones: Nuestro resultados demuestran que la cirugía bariátrica produjo unos efectos satisfactorios en esta población; sin embargo, existe la necesidad de una educación nutricional continuada, especialmente en el grupo de más de 18 meses tras la cirugía (AU)
