Abstract
O objetivo foi avaliar se a desnutrição está associada a características sócio-ambientais particulares. Peso e estatura foram avaliados e o IMC calculado em 1334 estudantes de 9 a 16 anos, de ambos os sexos, freqüentadores de instituições de La Plata. Enquetes semi-estruturadas compilaram a informação socioambiental que discriminou pela Análise de Componentes Principais dois grupos: favorável e menos favorável. O estado nutricional foi determinado pela antropométrica e os índices associados, usando a referência internacional. Foram calculados e comparados por Chi2 prevalência de desnutrição e sobrepeso por sexo, idade e origem. 25% da amostra apresentaram alteração do estado nutricional. Desnutrição crônica: maior no grupo menos favorável (3.6% vs 10.9%: Chi2 11.66, p < 0.01); desnutrição aguda: maior no grupo favorável (5.3% vs 1.7%: Chi2 27.63, p 0,05), mostrando diferenças de sexo significativas apenas no grupo favorável. O estado nutricional sofre maior custo adaptativo em um ambiente desfavorável.
This article aims to assess if malnutrition can be linked to specific socio-environmental characteristics. Weight and height were gathered and BMI calculated for 1334 students of both sexes aged 9 to 16, attending schools in the city of La Plata. Semi-structured interviews provided socio-environmental information, where two different groups were discriminated through Principal Component Analysis (favorable/least favorable). Nutritional status was identified by anthropometry and associated indexes, using international reference. Prevalence of malnutrition and excess weight according to age, sex and origin were determined and compared by Chi2. 25% of the sample showed an altered nutritional status. Stunting was higher in the less favorable group (3.6% vs. 10.9%: Chi2 11.66; p 0.05), exhibiting significant sexual differences only in the favorable group. The nutritional status accounts for the higher adaptive cost in an unfavorable environment.
