Abstract
OBJETIVOS: Verificar la prevalencia de hipertensión arterial y obesidad en choferes profesionales de transporte de carga y asociarla con variables estudiadas. MÉTODOS: Estudio transversal abarcando una muestra de 258 choferes profesionales de transporte de carga que circulan por la carretera BR-116, en el trecho Regis Bittencourt, en el estado de Sao Paulo. RESULTADOS: Los choferes eran adultos jóvenes (37,5±10 años), 19% tabaquistas, 55% refirieron ingestión de bebidas alcohólicas, 74% sedentarios, 57% usaban medicamentos inhibidores del sueño; recorrían en promedio 800 km/día y conducían 10 horas/día. La prevalencia de la hipertensión arterial fue de 37%, 46% tenían sobrepeso, 36% obesidad y 58% circunferencia abdominal aumentada. El análisis de regresión logística indicó que la hipertensión arterial se asoció (OD: Odds ratio, IC: intervalo de confianza de 95%) con: aumento del índice de masa corporal (OR=1,183 IC 1,065-1,314); glucemia (OR=1,039 IC 1,004-1,076); y hábito de ingerir medicamentos para inhibir el sueño (OR= 0,322 IC 0,129-0,801). CONCLUSIÓN: Entre los profesionales fue expresiva la presencia de hipertensión arterial, sobrepeso y obesidad.
OBJECTIVES: To verify the prevalence of hypertension and obesity among professional freight truck drivers and associate them with studied variables. METHODS: It is a cross-sectional study covering a sample of 258 professional freight truck drivers, traveling on the highway BR-116, on the Regis Bittencourt portion, in Sao Paulo state. RESULTS: Drivers were young adults (37.5±10 years), 19% were smokers, 55% reported drinking alcohol, 74% were sedentary, 57% used sleep-inhibiting drugs; they traveled an average of 800 km/day and drove 10 hours/day. The prevalence of hypertension was 37%, 46% were overweight, 36% were obese and 58% had high waist circumference. The logistic regression analysis indicated that hypertension was associated (OD: Odds ratio, CI: confidence interval 95%) with: increased body mass index (OR = 1.183 CI 1.065 to 1.314); blood glucose (OR = 1.039 CI 1.004 to 1.076); and habit of using drugs that inhibit sleep (OR = 0.322 CI 0.129 to 0.801). CONCLUSION: Among professionals was significant the presence of hypertension, overweight and obesity.
