| Resumen: |
Objective: to analyze the nutritional status of adolescents in the state of Pará, Brazil, in order to observe the trends in the Height x Age and BMI x Age indexes. Material and Methods: it was a quantitative, retrospective, and cross-sectional study from 2010 to 2019. The female and male sex were evaluated in each nutritional status index “Height x Age†and “BMI x Ageâ€. The collected data were organized in Microsoft Excel 2010 software and statistics was performed in the Action Stat 3.7 program. The ethics and investigation committee’s assessment was not necessary. Results: in “Height x Ageâ€, a total of 132,114 adolescents, age ≥ 10 and < 20 years, were registered and the female gender prevailed (65.8%), normality in the distribution of data was observed and no difference was noted in this category. In the “BMI x Ageâ€, 132,204 were reported, a normal distribution was found, but there was a statistical difference between sexes in the categories: “overweightâ€, “obesityâ€, “severe obesity†and “eutrophyâ€, which represented the largest percentage (73.4%). Conclusion: the population is mostly female, and the distribution of records is heterogeneous. Both sexes were shown to be of adequate height for their age and eutrophic. However, it was noticed the nutritional scenario is changing, which may lead, in the future, to public health problems, such as the increase in the number of patients with chronic non-communicable diseases. |
