Full textIt is estimated that 15 % of greenhouse gas emissions come from animal productionand an effective way to achieve the climate goals is to change and reduce our consumption ofmeat and dairy products. The vegetarian diet has increased in popularity among adolescentsand many adolescents are opting out of the meat, however, there is still resistance amongsome adolescents to eat more vegetarian food. This qualitative study aims to investigateadolescents view of vegetarians and vegetarianism. Data was collected through semistructuredinterviews with twelve adolescents. The data was analyzed with inductive thematicanalysis which generated four main themes: Dedication To Animals and Nature, Two Sides ofVegetarianism, Norm-Breaking or Not, Vegetarians are Feminine and a core category: On theBorder Country. The results of the study indicate that adolescents have a multifaceted andambivalent view where both positive and negative aspects regarding vegetarians andvegetarianism are raised. As previous research has primarily found a negative view onvegetarians and vegetarianism and since the multifaceted and ambivalent view that waspresent in this study was found among all adolescents, this may indicate that the view onvegetarians and vegetarianism is changing. The present study helps to increase the knowledgeabout the view on vegetarians and vegetarianism.

Full textThe global incidence of obesity has steadily risen in the last decades and the excessive intake of industrialized food rich in sugar and fat is among its main causes. Recent researches have shown that these foods activate neural mechanism and behaviors similar to what is seen with drug addiction. It is known that adults eating habits and preferences are generally established during childhood, but effective preventive measures against obesity and its comorbities in children and adolescents are still a current public health challenge. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the effects of a cafeteria diet intake and withdrawal on eating behavior, body weight, lipid profile, estrous cycle regularity, and anxiety-like and motivational behavior. Female Wistar rats had limited access to energy-dense food items typically consumed by humans for four weeks, at the end of which, withdrawal from this diet occurred in one of two ways: for a group withdrawal was abrupt and total, and for another group, gradual for one week. After withdrawal, which attempts to mimic human restrictive dieting, we evaluated rats anxiety-like behavior through the elevated plus maze, and their motivation to reinstate access to the cafeteria diet through a reinstatement model. Daily energy intake between groups did not reach significant difference, as well as their body weight. Cafeteria fed rats did gain weight at a faster pace, and had a significant greater intake of total and saturated fat, and sodium (p<0.05); and a significantly lower intake of proteins and fibers (p<0.05). Groups that underwent withdrawal reduced their caloric intake significantly, but there was no weight loss. Rats with continuous access to cafeteria diet also had higher levels of total and LDL cholesterol (p<0.05), and rats from withdrawal groups had their cholesterol levels similar to chow-only animals. The total withdrawal of the cafeteria diet and resulting lower energy intake were also responsible for estrous cycle irregularities. There was no significant difference in rats performance in the EPM test. Chow only rats spent significantly more time in an aversive setting in order to gain access to an item from the cafeteria diet (p<0.05). The limited, short term, post-weaning offer of a cafeteria diet was effective in developing compulsive eating disorder, but without signs of food addiction. It is likely that obesity is precedent to the development of addiction. We expect that the results from this project contribute to the ongoing discussion and investigation on eating and addiction behavior in female adolescents rats.

Full textIntroduction: High amounts of fat, cholesterol, refined sugar, and low amounts of fat acid and fibers present in the diets of adolescents is results in high rates of obesity, chronic non-communicable diseases, and death in adults. Objective: Evaluate qualitatively and quantitatively the daily eating habits of adolescent males and females from a São Paulo city state school. Methods: Students between the ages of 14 years and 18 years 11 months old in four different times in a six month period were evaluated. The students logged their food intake over a 24 hour period and the data was processed by the Virtual Nutri software. The statistical analysis (Kolmogorov-Smirnow, T Student test for two repeated samples, Wilcoxon Signed Tank Test, and McNemar) was made by SPSS 11.0. Results: For every day of the test, fat accounted for more than 30% of the caloric intake. The fiber intake showed a tendency to improve on week days when compared with weekends, as did the intake of unsaturated fats. The food most frequently consumed was rice. Snacks were consumed mostly on the holiday, and during holidays the students frequently skipped breakfast. Conclusions: This study of the eating habits of adolescents can help shape the public policies of health, nutrition, and diet for specific groups and interventions.

Full textThe Western diet (WD) exposure during critical developmental periods is considered as a major factor in the development of obesity, notably morbid obesity, of which the reference treatment when all other strategies (e.g. diet) have failed remains the bariatric surgery. But the invasiveness of this procedure, associated with non-negligible risks and failures, justifies the development of alternative therapies. To this aim, it is essential to understand the brain phenotypes regulating eating behavior. The objective of this thesis was to study the hedonic and cognitive neuro-behavioral dynamics in young adults who had been exposed to WD either during the perinatal period (SLK project), during adolescence (HOS project), both in minipig (SLK + HOS) and humans (HOS). For the HOS project, tests were performed on normal-weight subjects (human and pig), obese subjects (pig), and then after weight loss induced by calorie restriction with or without a gastric bypass (pig). We used psycho-behavioral approaches (tests, questionnaires) and brain imaging (PET, SPECT, fMRI). In the minipig, perinatal exposure to WD induced an "obese" cerebral phenotype and increases offspring susceptibility to stress, whereas exposure in adolescents induces an addiction-type cerebral phenotype and alters working memory. The human pilot study allowed to identify brain areas recruited in a food-choice situation involving dilemma, particularly the cingulate cortex and fusiform-occipital. Obesity causes anxio-depressive symptoms associated with snacking. Weight loss restores normal behavior and induced attentional brain regulation in response to sugar. Neuronal modulation by digestive hormones and/or microbiota is strongly suspected. Additional physiological, histological, and metabolomic analyzes should provide valuable answers to understand how the microbiota-gut-brain axis is involved in neurocognitive modulations induced by diet and weight variations

Resumo: Constata-se que, nas últimas décadas, o peso médio da população, independentemente do gênero, idade, ou extrato social, tanto nos países desenvolvidos como nos que estão em desenvolvimento, vem aumentando progressivamente. A obesidade é considerada doença multifatorial pela OMS e tem um caráter epidêmico, portanto um problema de saúde pública. Muitos estudiosos vêm pesquisando o assunto na esperança de identificar formas eficazes de tratamento duradouro para a perda de peso. As abordagens mais utilizadas para o tratamento da obesidade são, entre outras, as prescrições de dieta, mudanças no estilo de vida, atividades físicas, terapia com fármacos ou psicológica. Estas intervenções, no entanto, não têm diminuído a curva de crescimento do número de obesos e das doenças desencadeadas pela obesidade, tornando-se um desafio para a saúde pública encontrar respostas para a dificuldade do obeso em aderir à dieta, perder peso e manter esta perda. De acordo com os órgãos de saúde pública, a obesidade é particularmente importante entre crianças e adolescentes porque eles têm grande chance de serem obesos na vida adulta. Além disso, o adolescente está construindo a sua auto-imagem e o corpo obeso pode ser fonte de uma inadequação social, com todo o sofrimento que advém desta percepção. Para compreender as dificuldades de adesão ao tratamento proposto pelo conhecimento biomédico, este trabalho analisou a discursividade de meninas adolescentes com sobrepeso ou obesas, alunas de uma ONG situada em um bairro da zona norte da cidade de Campinas. Foram selecionadas 10 adolescentes interessadas em participar de um Grupo Focal que abordou o tema da obesidade e as formas de intervenção para a perda de peso propostas pelo modelo biomédico. Após a transcrição deste encontro, o material foi analisado de acordo com a Análise do Discurso (AD), teoria francesa de Michel Pêcheux e Eni Orlandi no Brasil. Entendemos que as condições históricas constroem práticas discursivas por meio das quais o obeso se significa no mundo e que conhecê-las ajudará a compreender a adolescente diante da dificuldade em perder peso. Como resultado, compreendemos que há por parte do discurso médico, uma sobredeterminação do corpo ao sujeito e a adolescente é determinada pela obesidade. No entanto, a jovem se recusa a ser significada nesta posição de obesa e doente, resistindo a este discurso e a esta determinação
Abstract: It is shown that on the last decades, the average weight of the population, apart from genre, age or social extract, in both developed countries and countries that are still developing, are progressively increasing. Obesity is considered a multi-factorial disease by WHO and has a epidemiological character, therefore, a public health problem. Many studies are researching the subject on the hope of identifying effective ways of a durable treatment for weight loss. The approaches more used obesity treatments are within others, diet prescriptions, changes on the life style, physical activities drug or psychological therapies. These interventions, however, have not decreased curve of growing obesity cases and of the diseases caused by obesity, becoming a challenge for public health finding answers for the difficulty of the obese to adhere a certain diet, losing weight and keeping this loss. According to the public health agencies, obesity is particularly important among children and teenagers because they have great chances of being obsess on their adult life. In addition to that, the adolescent is building a self image and the obese body can be a source of a social inadequacy, with all the suffering that comes from this perception. In order to comprehend the adhesion difficulties to the suggested treatment by the biomedical knowledge, this work has analyzed the discourse of teen girls that are overweight or obese, girls of an NGO situated in a northern neighborhood on the city of Campinas. There were selected 10 adolescents interested in participating of a Focal Group that approached the obesity theme and the ways of intervention for the weight loss suggested by the biomedical model. After the transcription of this meeting, the material has analyzed to the technique of Discourse Analysis (AD), French theory of Michel Pêcheux and Eni Orlandi in Brazil. We understand that the historical conditions build up discourse practices through which the obese gives a meaning to herself on the world and that getting to know these practices will help to comprehend the adolescent facing the difficulties of losing weight. As a result, we comprehend that there is by the medical discourse an over determination of the body to the subject and to the adolescent determined by the obesity. However the teenager refuses being signified on this position of obese and sick, resisting to this discourse and to his determination

Objetivos: Avaliar os efeitos do consumo de cafeina sobre a qualidade do sono em adolescentes e suas implicacoes sobre Sonolencia Diurna e ansiedade. Metodos: Estudo realizado com 34 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, com idade entre 12 e 18 anos, de uma escola privada do municipio de Sao Bernardo do Campo, SP (Brasil). Foram avaliados, por meio de questionarios, o consumo de cafeina (Frequencia Alimentar), a Qualidade do Sono (Indice de Qualidade do Sono de Pittsburgh ¡V PSQI), a Sonolencia Diurna (Escala de Sonolencia Epworth ¡V ESE) e os Niveis de Ansiedade (Inventario de Ansiedade Traco e Estado ¡V IDATE). Resultados: A amplitude da amostra de idade encontrada no sexo feminino foi de 12,4 a 18 anos e no masculino de 12,7 a 18,2 anos. A media de horas de sono durante a noite foi de oito horas (8 h). Observou-se associacao entre idade e horario de ir dormir. O grupo de idade (14,1„b1,5) que dorme entre 21 e 22 h e significativamente mais novo que o grupo (17,0„b0,7) que dorme depois das 00 h (meia-noite), p = 0,043. O refrigerante tipo cola foi a bebida-fonte de cafeina mais consumida. A Qualidade do Sono apresentou associacao com a frequencia de consumo de chocolate preto e uso de bebidas energeticas. Em relacao ao consumo de cafe e ansiedade observou-se que a medida que aumentam os Niveis de Ansiedade aumenta o volume de ingestao. Houve associacao com refrigerantes e ansiedade. Nao houve associacao entre o consumo de alimentos e bebidas cafeinadas para avaliar sono e ansiedade. O uso diario de cola se associou com o Alto Nivel de Ansiedade Traco (p = 0,037). Conclusoes: O aumento da frequencia de consumo de chocolate ao leite e meio amargo interfere na Qualidade do Sono. Nao ha associacao entre consumo de cafeina e Sonolencia Diurna. A medida que aumenta a ingestao de cafe e a frequencia do consumo de refrigerantes do tipo cola aumentam os Niveis de Ansiedade.
Purpose: Evaluate the effects of caffeine consumption on sleep quality in adolescents and its implications on daytime sleepiness and anxiety. Methods: A study was conducted with 34 adolescents of both sexes, aged between 12 and 18 years, of a private school in Sao Bernardo do Campo city, SP (Brazil). Questionnaires were used to assess the caffeine consumption (Food Frequency), the Sleep Quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index ¡V PSQI), the Daytime Sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale ¡V ESS) and the Anxiety Levels (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory ¡V STAI). Results: The age range of the sample was from 12.4 to 18 years in females and from 12.7 to 18.2 years in males. Average hours of sleep at night was eight hours (8 h). Relation between age and bedtime was observed. The group (14.1„b1.5) that sleeps between 21 and 22 h is significantly younger than the group (17.0„b0.7) that sleeps after 00 h (midnight), p = 0.043. The cola soft drink was the most consumed caffeine source-beverage. Sleep Quality was related to the frequency of dark chocolate consumption and energetic beverages use. In relation to coffee consumption and anxiety, it was observed that as the Anxiety Levels increase, the intake volume increases. There was relation between soft drinks and anxiety. There was no relation between caffeinated foods and beverages consumption to assess sleep and anxiety. The daily cola use was related to the High Level of Trait Anxiety (p = 0.037). Conclusions: The frequency increase of dark chocolate consumption interferes in Sleep Quality. There is no relation between caffeine consumption and Daytime Sleepiness. As coffee intake and the frequency of cola soft drinks consumption increase, the Anxiety Levels increase.

Mudanças no comportamento adotado durante a adolescência têm sido observadas nos últimos anos. Tais mudanças favoreceram o desenvolvimento de práticas alimentares inadequadas e geraram alterações no estado nutricional, caracterizadas pelo aumento excessivo de peso. Com isso, este trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a qualidade da dieta e fatores relacionados ao estilo de vida de adolescentes de uma escola particular de Pelotas, RS. Foi realizado um estudo transversal descritivo, com 525 adolescentes, de ambos os sexos, com idade de 14 a 19 anos. Dados sobre características antropométricas, comportamentais e consumo alimentar foram coletados. O consumo alimentar foi mensurado através de um recordatório de 24 horas e a qualidade da dieta avaliada através do Índice de Qualidade da Dieta - Revisado (IQD-R) e Índice de alimentação saudável modificado (IAS). Informações sobre comportamentos foram obtidas a partir de um questionário auto-preenchido pelo adolescente. Foi utilizado ANOVA para comparação de médias. A média do IQD-R foi 66,4 pontos, enquanto que do IAS modificado foi 65,5 pontos. Os adolescentes apresentaram baixas pontuações para os componentes leites e derivados, frutas e vegetais, indicando um consumo inadequado destes componentes na dieta. Adolescentes que não consumiam fast food e despendiam menos tempo ao dia em atividades sedentárias, como: assistir TV, jogar videogame e utilizar computador, apresentaram maiores escores, tanto para o IQD-R quanto para o IAS modificado (p< 0,05). A qualidade da dieta mostrou-se associada a outros comportamentos saudáveis. Com isso, ressalta-se a importância de uma abordagem mais ampla, a fim de modificar os padrões alimentares dos adolescentes, promovendo assim, melhor qualidade de vida e saúde nessa população.
Changes in behavior adopted during adolescence have been observed in recent years. These changes favored the development of feeding practices and generated changes in nutritional status, characterized by excessive weight gain. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the diet quality and related factors to lifestyle of adolescents in a private school in Pelotas. Was realized a Cross-sectional study with 525 adolescents of both sexes aged 14-19 years. Data on anthropometric and behavioral characteristics and dietary intake were collected. Food consumption was measured with the 24-hour dietary recall and diet quality was assessed by the Diet Quality Index - Revised (DQI-R) and modified Healthy Eating Index (HEI). Information on behaviors were obtained from a self-administered questionnaire completed by the adolescent. F test or ANOVA was used to compare means. The average DQI-R was 66.4 points, while the modified HEI was 65.5 points. The adolescents had lower scores for milk and dairy products, fruits and vegetables components, indicating an inadequate intake of these diet components. Adolescents who did not eat fast food and who spent less time per day in sedentary activities, such as watching TV, playing video games and using computers, had higher scores for both DQI-R and modified HEI (p <0.05).The diet quality was associated with other healthy behaviors. It emphasizes the importance of encouraging these behaviors in order to change the eating patterns of adolescents, thus promoting better quality of life and health in this population.

Full textBackground: The changes in lifestyle over the past decades have led to an increase in the prevalence of overweight. This affects both developed countries and developing ones as well as all age groups. Several interventions to reverse this situation have been tested, however, in children and adolescents the best management to reverse this situation is not yet fully elucidated. Objective: To evaluate the changes in the z-score of body mass index (zBMI), arm circumference (AC), triceps skinfold (TSF) and subscapular (SSF), arm muscle circumference (AMC), body fat percentage (BF), waist circumference (WC) and biochemical tests in children and adolescents after an intervention only dietotherapeutic adjusted for basal metabolic rate (BMR) was obtained through examination of indirect calorimetry (IC). Methodological Procedures: After randomization, participants allocated to this research participated in monthly and individual meetings with the nutritionist responsible for the project for a period of one year. Participants aged between 8 and 15 years, all overweight (≥ zBMI+1). Anthropometric measurements and BF were evaluated at inclusion in the 6th and 12th month after each child or adolescent be submitted to the examination of IC. The BF was measured by bioelectrical impedance equipment. Blood samples for biochemical analysis was performed after IC. Each participant received a diet adjusted by the value of IC exam. We used repeated measures ANOVA and Friedman and Cochran's Q test to evaluate the results. The statistical analysis was used PASW 18.0 for Windows and P-values <0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: Completed all three assessments 27 participants, mean age 12±2 years, 51.9% were female. The BMR showed no significant change at the end of the study (P=0.233), while the Zimc reduced -0.19 0.04 in the first 6 months and -0.17±0.05 (P=0.014) at the end of follow-up. The AC increased by 12 months and SSF in the last six months, remaining stable at the end of the study. The BF percentage was initially reduced, but in the last six months had increased, although more than half of the participants has reduced BF in 12 months. The total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein (LDL-c) reduced in the first 6 months (-11.5±2.7;P=0.001/-8.1±2.5;P=0.011), but this significant reduction was not maintained to the end of the intervention. Most children and adolescents reduced the values of triglycerides, LDL-c (88.9%) and TC (66.7%) at the end of the study. Conclusions: The dietary management of obesity in children and adolescents conducted by a nutritionist, with monthly meetings, is effective after 12 months of intervention, and especially in six months.

Materials and methods: This is a secondary analysis of the Latin American Nutrition and Health Study (ELANS) database. To measure diet quality, the HEI was calculated using information from a 24-hour food consumption reminder on two non-consecutive days. The HEI was classified as unhealthy (<60 HEI points), medium healthy (60-79 points) and healthy (>80 points). The sample was composed of 1113 subjects from four different regions of Peru: Lima Metropolitana, Costa, Sierra and Selva. A multiple linear regression was performed to analyze the effect of region, adolescents and adults. HEI score. Results: The mean HEI score was 71,0 (SD: 10,0), women scored higher than men (72,2 (10,0) vs 69,5 (9,7); p<0.001). Dairy products scored higher in the Sierra region and lower in the Selva region (6,76 (4,53) vs 2,86 (4,24); p<0. 001). Similarly, meats scored higher on the Costa region and the Jungle region and lower in the Sierra region (4,76 (0,89) vs. 4,76 (0,84) vs. 4,24 (1,49); p<0.001). The adjusted linear regression showed that the Sierra region has the highest HEI score (coef: 1.89, EE:0.75; p=0.012) and the Selva region the lowest score (coef: -5.31, EE:1.01; p<0.001). Conclusion: The region of residence affects the quality index, with the population of the Sierra having a higher index of healthy eating and the forest having the lowest score compared to the other regions. It is important to improve the quality of the population's diet across regions in Peru.

Full textClinical and experimental studies have established that obesity, resulting mainly from consumption of energy-dense food such as high-fat diet (HFD), is associated with adverse cognitive and emotional outcomes. The prevalence of obesity during childhood and adolescence has reached epidemic levels. This is particularly worrisome since these periods are crucial for hippocampal and amygdala maturation, two brain structures necessary for shaping memory and emotional functions. It is thus critical to determine the impact of HFD exposure during these early developmental periods on memory and emotional processes. First, we show that perinatal HFD exposure (throughout gestation and lactation), leads to dendritic shrinkage of pyramidal neurons in the CA1 of the hippocampus but also in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) in adult rats. These results add to the growing literature indicating changes in hippocampal-dependent memory after perinatal HFD exposure. Regarding amygdala, perinatal HFD exposure specifically impairs odor aversion memory, a task highly dependent on BLA function, without affecting olfactory or malaise processing. These results are the first to show that perinatal HFD exposure impairs amygdala functions, at cellular and behavioral levels. Next, we investigated the cellular mechanisms underlying memory impairment induced by adolescent HFD consumption. We first show that HFD consumption from weaning to adulthood (covering adolescence) impairs long-term, but not short-term, object recognition memory (ORM) in novel context condition which was associated with higher circulating corticosterone and enhanced hippocampal endocannabinoid levels (anandamide in particular) in HFD-fed mice. Systemic post-training blockade of glucocorticoid receptors (GR) or cannabinoid receptors type 1 (CB1R) prevented HFD-induced memory deficits. These treatments also normalized training-induced c-Fos over-activation specifically in hippocampus in HFD group stressing the importance of this structure. Indeed, hippocampal CB1R deletion improved memory in HFD-fed mice. Moreover, we identified changes of in vivo hippocampal synaptic plasticity after training as a potential mechanism impaired by HFD in a CB1R-dependent manner. Finally, chemogenetic inhibition of hippocampal glutamatergic cells improved memory in HFD group similarly to CB1R deletion or blockade suggesting CB1R-dependent disinhibition of these neurons in HFD-fed mice. These results indicate that high-fat diet consumption during adolescence alters the hippocampal eCB system leading to impairment of hippocampal synaptic plasticity and deficit in recognition memory consolidation. Taken together, our results provide new evidences of how HFD consumption during early developmental periods exerts its deleterious effects on cognitive functions and identify the endocannabinoid system as a potential target for treating cognitive impairment associated with obesity

Introduction: Dental erosion is a condition resulting from the irreversible dissolution of mineralized portion of the teeth, being recognized in modern society, as an important cause of loss of tooth structure. In this sense, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and association with sociodemographic and dietary habits in adolescents 15-19 years in the city of Campina Grande - PB, Brazil. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on a stratified sample of 675 school adolescents 15-19 years of both sexes, using the index proposed by O'Sullivan, modified for use in maxillary incisors and first molars. Clinical data were evaluated by two calibrated dentists (Kappa intra-and inter = 0.74 and 0.82.) For data analysis we used the SPSS ® (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) was held descriptive statistics (absolute distribution, percentage, mean and standard deviation) and analytical (Chi-square). The significance level was 5%. Results: The prevalence of dental erosion was 21%, and the upper central incisors (50.5%) and the upper lateral incisors (40.2%), the elements most affected. The buccal showed greater impairment (51.4%) and 67.8% of teeth with dental erosion had more than half the surface of the affected area. Most lesions restricted to the enamel (93.5%) and showing a symmetrical distribution. There were no statistically significant differences between the occurrence of dental erosion with gender, age, socioeconomic status, self-reported race and diet (p> .05). Conclusion: A high prevalence of dental erosion in its early stages was observed among adolescents, mainly affecting the labial surface of the upper anterior elements, and that was not statistically associated with sociodemographic and dietary habits.
Introdução: A erosão dentária é uma patologia decorrente da dissolução irreversível da porção mineralizada dos dentes, sendo reconhecida na sociedade moderna, como uma importante causa da perda de estrutura dentária. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho foi determinar a sua prevalência e associação com aspectos sociodemográficos e hábitos alimentares em adolescentes de 15 a 19 anos, na cidade de Campina Grande – PB, Brasil. Metodologia: Um estudo transversal foi conduzido numa amostra estratificada de 675 adolescentes escolares de 15 a 19 anos de ambos os gêneros, utilizando o índice proposto por O´Sullivan, modificado para uso nos incisivos maxilares e primeiros molares. Os dados clínicos foram avaliados por dois cirurgiões-dentistas calibrados (Kappa intra e interexaminadores= 0,74 e 0,82). Para análise dos dados foi utilizado o ® SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences), realizou-se a estatística descritiva (distribuições absolutas, percentuais, média e desvio padrão) e analítica (Qui-quadrado). O nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Resultados: A prevalência de erosão dentária foi de 21%, sendo os incisivos centrais superiores (50,5%) e os incisivos laterais superiores (40,2%), os elementos mais afetados. A face vestibular apresentou maior comprometimento (51,4%) e 67,8% dos dentes com erosão dentária possuíam mais da metade da superfície da área afetada. A maioria das lesões se restringiu ao esmalte dentário (93,5%) e demonstrou distribuição simétrica. Não foram encontradas diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre a ocorrência de erosão dentária com o gênero, idade, condições socioeconômicas, raça autodeclarada e hábitos alimentares (p>0,05). Conclusão: Uma alta prevalência de erosão dentária em seus estágios iniciais foi observada entre os adolescentes, afetando preferencialmente a superfície vestibular dos elementos anteriores superiores, e que não foi estatisticamente associada a aspectos sociodemográficos e hábitos alimentares.

Full textBackground - A major limitation in usual diet assessment is the measurement error. Calibration approaches have been proposed to minimize its effects and to correct risk estimates. Calibration could be defined as a method which determines a relation between rank orders of two instruments by linear regression. Objective to apply a calibration strategy in nutrient intake datas obtained by Adolescents Food Frequency Questionnaire (AFFQ), by using a calibration factor obtained by linear regression. Methodology 74 boys and girls (10 to 14 years old) enrolled at a public school of Piracicaba were assessed. Values of energy intake higher than 6000Kcal and adolescents older than 14 years were excluded. Demographic and anthropometric data, sexual maturation and dietary intake (assessed by food frequency questionnaire and 24-hour recall) were examined. Dietary data intakes were adjusted by energy and, only 24-hour recall data were adjusted by within-person variance. Descriptive statistics, one way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and linear regression were performed. Results - 71,6% were girls. The calibrated values were similar to the reference data, with a reduction of standard deviation values. Linear regression coefficients (λ) ranged from -0,05 (iron) to 0,28 (vitamin C). Conclusion The methodology used to calibrate dietary data was capable to reduce measurement error. Although it was not able to eliminate error completely, it is an approach that can be used to obtain less unbiased estimates.

Full textObjetivo: Realizar uma revisão da literatura sobre a eficácia da dieta cetogénica em crianças e adolescentes com epilepsia refratária. Metodologia: Foi realizada uma revisão da literatura recorrendo à base de dados Pubmed®. Apenas foram selecionadas publicações referentes aos últimos 5 anos no idioma inglês, espanhol ou português e que incluíam estudos apenas realizados em humanos, nomeadamente crianças desde o nascimento até aos 18 anos. Foram utilizadas as seguintes palavras-chave: “epilepsy AND diet”, “epilepsy AND dietary therapy”, “epilepsy AND ketogenic diet”, “epilepsy AND nutrition" e por último “epilepsy AND nutrition care”. Resultados: A Dieta Cetogénica é uma terapia não farmacológica usada no tratamento da epilepsia, no entanto esta não é considerada a primeira abordagem terapêutica. Existem diferentes variantes da Dieta Cetogénica, que combinam os três macronutrientes de diferentes formas. As dietas menos restritivas em hidratos de carbono e com menor percentagem de gordura são melhores toleradas, mas todas são eficazes. Tem sido descrito que a Dieta Cetogénica pode ter uma redução na frequência de crises > 50%, >90% ou mesmo 100%, considerando assim que o doente está livre de crises. A administração da Dieta Cetogénica quando corretamente aplicada, pode ainda levar a redução ou até mesmo à descontinuação dos fármacos antiepiléticos. Conclusão: A DC é um tratamento a ter em conta como terapia adjuvante para a epilepsia. Este tratamento é eficaz e seguro, no entanto possui alguns efeitos secundários. Quanto à tolerabilidade da dieta, existem variantes da DC que são mais bem aceites do que outras.
Objective: Make a review of the literature about efficacy of ketogenic diet in children and adolescents with refractory epilepsy. Methodology: Was performed an literature review using the Pubmed database, only only publications referring to the last 5 years in the English, Spanish or Portuguese language were included and included studies only performed in humans, namely children from birth to 18 years of age. The following keywords were used: "epilepsy AND diet", "epilepsy AND dietary therapy", "epilepsy AND ketogenic diet", "epilepsy AND nutrition" and lastly "epilepsy AND nutrition care". Results: The Ketogenic Diet is a non-pharmacological therapy used in the treatment for epilepsy, however it is not considered a first therapeutic approach. There are different versions of the Ketogenic Diet, which combine the three macronutrients of different ways. The less restrictive carbohydrates and lower fat percentage diets are better tolerated, but all are efficient. It has been described as a Ketogenic Diet may have a reduction in the frequency of seizures > 50%, > 90% or even 100%, considering the patient seizure freedom. Administration of Ketogenic Diet when properly applied may further lead to a reduction or even discontinuation of antiepileptic drugs. Conclusions: Ketogenic Diet is a treatment to be considered as adjunctive therapy for epilepsy. This treatment is effective and safe, however, some side effects. As for the tolerability of the diet, there are Ketogenic Diet variants that are better accepted than others.

Full textThis search had as an objective to compare nutritionals parameters with caries presence and periodental clinicals condition among teens groups and without obesity taken care in the Nutritions Clinics and Dentistry at São Lucass college in Porto Velho-Ro. The study was transversal, which means that each case has been controlled. They had been put individuals between ten to 19 years old in both kind, previously evaluated how much to the nutritional state (IMC of weight for each stature, the add of the cutaneous triciptal and to subscapular and alimentary frequencys inquiry), they had been placed in the following groups: eutróficos (between percentile 15 to 85 for IMC) and obese (above of percentile 85 for IMC and cutaneous folds), being 18 individuals in each group. The CPO-D, the indices of teeths matters and gingival bleed as well as values of depth of sounding and clinical level of insertion in all the mouth. The results had presented that the obesity was not the main differential related to index CPO-D, and that the bigger the CPO-D, less was the ingestion of vegetable ingestion and the biggest absorption of candy. The obesity also was not the main differential in the periodontitis occurrence and it did not have relation to the occurrence of periodontitis and the values of ICP and ISG. But the standard of alimentary ingestion between the positive and negative adolescents for periodontite demonstrates that the groups have similar protein ingestion and complex carbohydrate, however in relation to the ingestion of vegetables and candies (simple carbohydrate), it occurs important variation. The positive group for periodontitis ingest less vegetable and much candies than the other group, the negative one.Which can be concluded that it did not have relation between obesity and periodontal illness, also did not have relation of ICP and ISG with the periodontitis, and the periodontal illness was more present in teens from15 years old; it had a significant related to a low vegetable ingestion and a high candy ingestion (simple carbohydrate) in such a clinical chart of periodontitis, as for one high index CPO-D and that the nutritional orientation for a healthful feeding, and verbal hygiene can prevent the appearance or the aggravation of the buccal illnesses.

Resumo: Estudo sobre a influência da consistência da dieta e hábitos alimentares em jovens portadores da síndrome da disfunção temporomandibular (DTM), com o objetivo de verificar se a disfunção temporomandibular tem correlação com a consistência da dieta desses indivíduos. Foi realizado um estudo comparativo entre jovens atendidos no ambulatório do Hospital da Universidade Federal de São Paulo. Trata-se de um Estudo de Caso Controle, comparando indivíduos jovens de 9 a 25 anos, com e sem diagnóstico de Disfunção Temporomandibular. Foi utilizado um questionário e recordatório alimentar, verificando a relação entre consistência da alimentação e sua influência na DTM. O grupo controle (sem dor) foi formado por 47 indivíduos (49%) e o grupo de estudo por 49 indivíduos (51%), totalizando 96 indivíduos. Quanto à consistência dos alimentos consumidos em 3 dias, conforme relato no recordatório alimentar, 52 deles (54,2%) comeram alimentos mais consistentes. Destes, 23 apresentaram dor de DTM (44,2%), enquanto 29 não apresentaram a mesma dor (55,8%). Foram 44 (45,8%) os indivíduos que se alimentaram com menor consistência, dos quais 26 (59,1%) apresentaram dor e 18 deles (40,9%) não apresentaram dor. A maioria dos integrantes da amostra utiliza alimentos mais consistentes para sua alimentação. A maior parte dos indivíduos com dor prefere alimentos menos consistentes. Existe associação entre DTM e os hábitos alimentares, porem este dado não é estatisticamente significante
Abstract: This study is on the influence of the consistency of diet and eating habits in young patients with the syndrome of temporomandibular disorders (TMD), in order to ascertain whether the TMD is correlated with the consistency of the diet of these individuals. We conducted a comparative study between young people treated at the Hospital of the Federal University of Sao Paulo. This is a Control Case- Study, comparing young people who are 9-25 years old with and without a diagnosis of TMD. We used a questionnaire and a food record report, checking the relationship between the consistency of food choice and its influence on TMD. The control group (patients with no pain) was formed by 47 individuals (49%) and the study group was made of 49 individuals (51%), adding up to 96 individuals. As far as the consistency of foods eaten in three days, as reported in the dietary recall, 52 of them (54.2%) ate more consistent food. Out of these, 23 had pain of TMD (44.2%), while 29 did not have the same pain (55.8%). There were 44 (45.8%) individuals who were fed with less consistency food, of which 26 (59.1%) had pain and 18 of them (40.9%) had no pain. Most members of the sample prefer more consistent food in their diet. Most people who have pain prefer less consistent foods. There is a relationship between TMD and eating habits, but this figure is not statistically significant

Full textThis study aimed to evaluate the food consumed by female players of team sports in high school, to assess the diet quality index and the nutrition knowledge of these players. The dietary intake was assessed through food records from 4 days, the Diet Quality Index and nutrition knowledge through a validated questionnaire. The group had a mean age of 16.8 years (± 1.5). The inadequacies of the diet found were: Low average energy consumption (1621,9Kcal); Inadequacie of carbohydrate (90.9%), proteins (81.8%) and lipids (50%). There were also found inadequacies for vitamins A (63.6%) and C (59.1%). The inadequacie minerals were: calcium (59.1%), phosphate (95.5%), zinc (77.3%) and electrolytes as sodium (100%) and potassium (100%). In addition, inadequate intake of fiber was found in 100% of the sample. As for the Diet Quality Index, 72.7% require modification of their diets and nutrition knowledge was moderate (72.5%). The analysis of food intake showed that players consume an inadequate diet for their health and physical performance and the Diet Quality Index, together with the assessment of nutrition knowledge show that athletes have moderate knowledge about nutrition but need changes in their diets, suggesting the need for nutritional intervention in this group.
A presente pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar a alimentação consumida por jogadoras que praticam esportes coletivos em escola de ensino médio, bem como avaliar o índice de qualidade da dietae mensurar o conhecimento nutricional.. Avaliou-se a ingestão dietética por meio de registro alimentar de 4 dias, o Índice de Qualidade da Dieta e conhecimento nutricional utilizando-se questionário validado. As atletas apresentaram idade média de 16,8 anos (±1,5). As inadequações encontradas na dieta foram: baixo consumo médio de energia (1621,9Kcal), inadequação do consumo de carboidratos (90,9%), proteínas (81,8%) e de lipídeos (50%), também foram encontradas inadequações de ingestão das vitaminas A (63,6%) e C (59,1%), dos minerais cálcio (59,1%), fósforo (95,5%), zinco (77,3%) e dos eletrólitos sódio (100%) e potássio (100%). Tamém se verificou inadequação do consumo de fibras em 100% da amostra. Quanto ao Índice de Qualidade da Dieta, 72,7% necessitam de modificações da dieta e o conhecimento nutricional foi moderado (72,5%). A análise da ingestão alimentar mostrou que as jogadoras consomem uma alimentação inadequada para o seu desempenho físico e saúde e o Índice de Qualidade da Dieta, juntamente com a avaliação do conhecimento nutricional demonstram que as mesmas possuem conhecimento moderado sobre nutrição mas que necessitam de alterações nas suas dietas, sugerindo a necessidade de intervenção nutricional para esse grupo.

Full textThere are significant differences on the zinc distribution between obese and non-obese individuals. A fifteen female adolescents group, with a PIMC >85th, has been studied in order to evaluate the influence on the zinc distribution of a nutritional orientation for weight loss. Normochaloric diet based on the food pyramid was introduced. The items that presented more significant difference on p<0,05 were proteins, fruits, meat and eggs, and milk and milk products. Zinc biochemical parameters assessment were plasma, erythrocytes, salivary sediment and 24 hours urine, SOD and urinary creatinine. Results show that changes on alimentary pattern during 4 months is significantly effective for increasing intraerythrocytic zinc.

Full textBackground: Adolescent dietary patterns have been associated with increased risk factors for chronic diseases, including diabetes, coronary heart disease and cancer. Objectives: To evaluate the dietary patterns among adolescents living in the municipally of São Paulo. Methods: Data of adolescents from a cross-sectional survey were analyzed. Two different approaches were used to evaluate the dietary patterns: the Brazilian Healthy Eating Index Revised (BHEI-R) and the factors analysis. To estimate the usual intake, it was collected a minimum of one and a maximum of five 24-hour dietary recall (24HR), in which the first one was obtained in the adolescents home, together with a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), and the others records were collected by phone. In the first approach, the method proposed by the American National Cancer Institute was used to estimate the distribution of the components of the BHEI-R, according to the usual intake and adjusted by the sociodemographic, anthropometric and lifestyle characteristics. To access the dietary patterns using the factor analysis, initially, the usual intake that was estimated by the Multiple Source Method. Beside the 24HR data, the FFQ was used as covariate information to improve the modeling of consumption probability and intake amount. After the factor analysis, multivariate linear regressions models identified the characteristics associated with the dietary patterns. Results: The estimated mean BHEI-R score (47.1 points), adjusted for gender and family heads schooling, was, being similar between males (46.3) and females (48.0). The results indicated lower consumption of Whole grains (0.3), Total vegetables (1.0), Total fruit (1.3) and Whole fruit (0.4); and higher intake Sodium (2.2), Saturated fat (5.8) and; SoFAAS (4.5), that comprise the calories from solid fat, alcohol intake and added sugar. The factor analysis identified two dietary patterns that together explained 17.1 per cent of the total variation in food intake. The Traditional diet, characterized by the consumption of beans, rice, coffee/tea, sugar, butter/margarine, beef and cookies, was inversely associated with be male, higher income and higher family heads schooling. The Dual diet, characterized by the consumption chocolate powder, vegetables, whole milk, salada dressings, cheeses, processed meats/cold cuts, breads/toasts/crackers, candies, juices and white meat (chicken and fish), was directly associated with higher income, family heads marital status (living with someone) and higher family heads schooling. Conclusion: The adolescents have lower dietary fiber intake, especially fruits and whole grains and higher intake of sodium, fats and sugars. Thus, the results of the two approaches provide consistent and complementary information about the adolescent dietary behavior that can be used to the development of public health programs, in order to prevent and treat dietrelated chronic diseases throughout the life course

Full textBackground: The prevalence of paediatric obesity has increased in recent years, and health care workers must be trained to treat these conditions. Objective: To compare the effect of three year-long interventions: physical activity (PA) programme, dietary intervention (D) and treatment in an outpatient obesity clinic (OOC), on the body mass index (BMI), body composition, basal metabolic rate (BMR) and biochemical measurements of children and adolescents with obesity. Methodological Procedures: Randomized clinical trial of 82 participants aged between 8 and 15, diagnosed with obesity. Participants in the PA group received individualised home-based physical activity programmes from a physical education teacher. In the D group, participants received dietary counselling based on BMRs as measured by indirect calorimetry. In the OOC group, participants were given instructions on how to adopt and maintain healthy lifestyle habits. Participants had monthly appointments with physical educators, nutritionists or health care workers, depending on participant group. Anthropometric data, body composition, BMR and biochemical measurements were assessed at baseline, and after 6 and 12 months of treatment. Project approved by Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa do HCPA número 10-0011 and registred www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT012973774. Results: Differences between the PA, D and OOC groups over the course of the study were as follows: BMI Z score -7.1% (-10.8 to -3.3), -5.0% (-8.4 to -1.5) and –15.2%(-19.5 to -10.9); p=0.001; Fat mass (Kg) 9,2% (4,3 a 14,2), 10,4% (4,8 a 15,9) and 4,3% (-1,7 a 10,4), p=0,248; Fat-free mass weight(Kg) 10.5%(7.5 to 13.4), 7.0% (4.1 to 10.0) and 6.7% (2.8 to 10.7) p=0.203; BMR 50.3%(2.2 to 232), 31.6%(-23.7 to 147), 38.6%(-17.3 to 232), p=0.669. The most frequent laboratory anormalities at baseline in groups OOC, PA and D were, respectively, value low HDL (82.1%, 77.8%, 63%), fasting insulin 15 μUI / mL (71.4% , 81.5% and 66.7%) and high homeostasis model assessment insulin resistence index (67.9%, 81.5%, 63%). The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was made in 20% of obese children. OOC group was significantly greater reduction in BMI Z score, waist circumference, total cholesterol, increasing the value of HDL, reduced fasting insulin and HOMA-IR, systolic blood pressure reduction and the number of metabolic syndrome components. In the PA group, there was a greater reduction in total cholesterol in the amount of LDL and TG. Group D also showed improvement in BMI Z score, reducing the value of total cholesterol, LDL and TG. Despite the reduction of individuals diagnosed with metabolic syndrome in the group OOC (7 to 2) and PA (4 to 1) no significant difference when comparing the three groups. Conclusions: All three interventions led to a reduction in BMI Z score, and increased fat free mass, BMR and biochemical measurements over the course of a year. This study demonstrates the need for combined strategies and long-term management of obesity in children and adolescents to reduce cardio metabolic changes present in this population and prevent the progression of risk factors for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases and premature death. Therefore, all three interventions are suitable treatments for paediatric obesity.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: According to Hurlock ( in Louw, Gerdes & Meyer, 1985), traditional society has a larger number of prescribed values and rules of behaviour than is the case in modern society. In modern society the onus rests on the individual who is expected to direct his behaviour in accordance with the values of his choice. The individual has to accept responsibility for determining his own values. This may create problems for the adolescent because he will be confronted by a wide range of diverse values without the benefit of guidelines or rules to tell him which of those values should be accepted and which should rather be avoided. Against this background it becomes clear why the internalization of moral values, as they develop, is of utmost importance to the adolescent. In this study an attempt has been made to investigate the relationship between stage of moral development and locus of control within a group of Afrikaans-speaking adolescents. The study has further attempted to determine the influence of intellectual ability on the relationship between stage of moral development and locus of control. Males and females were also compared with respect to moral development and locus of control. The sample comprised 193 white, Afrikaans-speaking grade eleven pupils. Seventy-six were boys and 117 girls. The subjects were selected from three high schools situated in three different towns and/or cities. All the subjects came from complete families in which both biological parents were present. Taylor's Reasons for Action Questionnaire (1978) was used to determine the stage of moral development. This questionnaire is based on Lawrence Kohlberg's six stages of moral development which in itself developed from the cognitive-developmental structural approach to moral development. The Rotter Internal-External Locus of Control Questionnaire was used to measure the level of locus of control. Intelligence test scores, as measured by the New South African Group Test, were obtained from the E119 records at the various schools. The responses to a biographical questionnaire were used to facilitate the demarcation of the sample. The results of the study indicated that on average the sample as a whole, functions on a conventional moral level. A significantly negative correlation (r(193) = -,28; P < ,001) was found between locus of control and level of moral developement. This indicates that within this group of Afrikaans-speaking adolescents an internal locus of control is associated with a higher level of moral development whilst and external locus of control is associated with a lower level of moral development. In this study intelligence had little or no influence on the relationship between level of moral development and locus of control. This supports the view of Kohlberg (1969) that there is a curved line relationship between the level of moral judgement and intellectual ability. Finally it may be said with a 95% degree of certainty, that there is a significant gender difference in respect of the construct of moral development. The girls used in this sample displayed a more developed level of moral development than the boys.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In tradisionele samelewings is daar, volgens Hurlock (aangehaal in Louw, Gerdes & Meyer, 1985), meer waardes en reëls vir gedrag voorgeskryf as in die moderne samelewing. In die moderne samelewing rus die onus op die individu om sy gedrag volgens die waardes van sy keuse in te rig. Hierdie verantwoordelikheid wat op die individu rus om self sy waardes te bepaal, kan vir die adolessent probleme skep aangesien hy deur 'n groot verskeidenheid waardes konfronteer word sonder riglyne of reëls oor watter waardes aanvaar en watter liefs vermy moet word. Teen hierdie agtergrond is dit duidelik waarom die internalisering van morele waardes, soos dit ontwikkel, van uiterste belang is vir die adolessent. Die onderhawige studie poog om die verband tussen die stadium van morele ontwikkeling en lokus van kontrole by 'n groep Afrikaanssprekende adolessente te ondersoek. Verder is probeer om die invloed van intellektuele vermoë op die verband tussen die stadium van morele ontwikkeling en lokus van kontrole te ondersoek. Laastens is die geslagte met mekaar vergelyk ten opsigte van die twee konstrukte, naamlik stadium van morele ontwikkeling en lokus van kontrole. Die ondersoekgroep het bestaan uit 193 blanke Afrikaanssprekende graad 11 leerlinge. Hiervan was 76 seuns en 117 meisies. Die toetslinge was afkomstig uit drie hoërskole wat in drie verskillende dorpe en/of stede geleë is. Die toetslinge het uit volledige gesinne gekom, dit wil sê, gesinne waar beide die biologiese ouers nog teenwoordig was in die huishouding. Die Redes vir Optrede Vraelys van Taylor (1978) is gebruik om die stadium van morele ontwikkeling vas te stel. Hierdie vraelys is gebaseer op Lawrence Kohlberg se ses stadia van morele ontwikkeling wat ontstaan het vanuit die kognitief-ontwikkelende strukturele benadering van morele ontwikkeling. Die Rotter Interne-Eksterne Lokus van Kontrole Vraelys is gebruik om die vlak van lokus van kontrole te bepaal. Verstandtoetstellings, soos gemeet deur die Nuwe Suid- Afrikaanse Groeptoets, is vanaf die E119-vorms by die onderskeie skole verkry. Die response op "n biografiese vraelys is benut ten einde die steekproef effektief at te baken. Die resultate van die ondersoek toon dat die totale steekproef wat gemiddeldes betref, op 'n konvensionele morele vlak redeneer. Daar is "n beduidende negatiewe verband r(193) = -,28; p< ,001) tussen lokus van kontrole en vlak van morele ontwikkeling gevind. Dit dui daarop dat, by hierdie groep Afrikaanssprekende adolessente, "n interne lokus van kontrole saamgaan met "n hoër vlak van morele ontwikkeling en "n eksterne lokus van kontrole met "n laer vlak van morele ontwikkeling saamgaan. In hierdie studie het intellektuele vermoë ook weinig tot geen invloed op die verband tussen vlak van morele ontwikkeling en lokus van kontrole gehad nie. Die bevinding ondersteun Kohlberg (1969) se siening dat die verband tussen vlak van morele oordeel en intellektuele vermoë kromlynig is. Laastens kan daar met 95% sekerheid gesê word dat die geslagte beduidend van mekaar verskil ten opsigte van die konstruk morele ontwikkeling. Dit blyk dat die meisies in hierdie steekproef moreel verder ontwikkel het as die seuns.

Full textThis study was carried out with 75 pregnant teenagers, between 13 and 18 years, with the purpose of investigating the effect of supplementation with different concentration of iron (80 and 120 mg/day) and constant amount of folic acid (250 µg/day) and zinc (5 mg/day), in the maternal nutritional condition, related to these nutrients, and consequence in the concept. The teenagers were randomly distributed in five groups: Group I: it gets 120 mg of iron + 250 µg of folate; Group II: 80 mg of iron + 250 µg of folate; Group III: 120 mg of iron + 250 µg of folate + 5 mg of zinc; Group IV: 80 mg of iron + 250 µg of folate + 5 mg of zinc, and Group V: 120 mg/day iron according to the routine. Two blood samples were collected: one, between 16 and 20 weeks of pregnancy, and another, between 37 and 38 weeks of pregnancy. It was performed a food inquery (within 24 hours), and for every teenager weight and height were taken during respective appointment. Results showed that for the teenagers diet, iron, folic acid and zinc concentration was above two third of RDA. Biochemically, the teenagers had the nutritional condition endangered, for these three nutrients. Anthropometrically, more than 60% of teenagers were eithrophic, at the begging of prenatal. The supplementation with 80 mg and 120 mg of iron, associated with 250 mg of folate promoted similar hemoglobinic reply, and it didn\'t influence the corporal iron supply.This supplementation also promoted significant impact on folic acid nutritional condition and conversely it wasn\'t observed correlation between these results and nutritional condition of the newborn baby and problems during pregnancy. Our results suggest that the pregnant teenager, should take diet supplement containing 80 mg of iron, 250 µg of folate, e zinc concentration more than 5 mg/dia, accompained with a prenatal care supervision.

Full textChildhood and adolescence are considered periods that involve a series of changes in which some of them are worth enlightening: the physical growth and development that requires a higher intake of energy and nutrients. It is important that these subjects have a balanced food intake concerning energy and nutrients to reassure that the changes such as in body composition and sexual maturation are guaranteed. One of the most important goals of this work is the assessesment of the nutritional status, the energy and nutrients intake, and the macronutrients present in diets of a sample of 1325 students, enrolled in 20 public schools in 10 Brazilian states. The data on the students food intake were obtained using the 24-hour Recall Method. To the nutritional analyses the software Virtual Nutri was used. It was identified among the main findings an average of energy intake (1503.4 kcal) which was considered below the recommended allowance for the group. When the distribution of the students according to the participation of the macronutrients in the total energy value of the diet was analyzed, it was observed that most of them (55%) has inadequate diets, being the worst situations among students of the Northeast Region (Parnaíba and Brasileira) and the North Region (Abaetetuba and Tailândia). The opposite was found among the students from Joinville-SC (71,3% of the group had diets classified as adequate). The analyses of the nutritional status found no prevalence of low weight among the students in the study. Most of them (around 92.6%) were classified as eutrophic and an expected rate (5%) was identified as overweight. Nonetheless among the students from Joinville (14.7%) and Ponte Serrada (16.3%) the results related to overweightness (percentages practically 3 times higher) distinguished by the superiority over the others. Regarding the consumption of minerals, it is surprisingly the low intake of calcium: most of them hadnt had 50% of the recommended allowance. In relation to the average intake of vitamins the situation can be classified as more regular, except when the reduced intake of folacin and pantotenic acid is considered. The average content of fibers in the diets of all the students is cause of worries especially when the recommended daily allowance (25 to 38g): the highest intake was observed in students from Paraiba (14.3g) and the lowest was identified in students from Joinville. There are no doubts that the group of children and adolescents, especially the ones who attend public schools deserve close attention from the health and educational institutions concerning to food comsuption.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The primary aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between identity development and personality type preference during the adolescent developmental phase. The Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity status (EOM-EIS-2) and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) were used as research instruments. School, gender and language were considered as the demographic variables. Personality type preferences and the demographic variables indicated six significant interactions. The Thinking-Feeling (T-J) scale was related significantly to the gender variable. Sensing-Intuition (S-N), Thinking-Feeling (T-J) and Judging-Perception (J-P) were related significantly to language. Sensing-Intuition (S-N) and Judging-Perception (J-P) have indicated significant interactions with the school variable. Identity status and the demographic variables also indicated significant interactions. Gender was related significantly to the interpersonal moratorium status. The school and language variables interacted with the identity diffusion, foreclosure and moratorium statuses in the ideological and in the interpersonal domains.. Significant interactions were indicated among identity status and two of the dimensions of personality type preference, that is Sensing-Intuition (S-N) and Judgement-Perception (JP). Significant preferences for Intuition (N) in relation to the ideological, as well as the interpersonal foraetosure statuses were indicated. Intuition (N) was also related to the. interpersonal diffusion and moratorium statuses. Preferences for Perception (P) were also related significantly to ideological and interpersonal foreclosure, as well as to interpersonal diffusion and moratorium statuses. Neither Thinking-Feeling (T-J) nor Extroversion- Introversion (E-I) dimensions demonstrated any significant interaction with the identity statuses. Educational implications and recommendations are suggested in terms of the indicated personality types and preferences among adolescents, identity formation, as well as the demographic variables related to personality type preferences and identity formation. Recommendations are also suggested with regard to the relationship between identity status and personality type preferences. The researcher would like to emphasise individual differences and diversity (in terms of identity development and personality type preferences) which link up with an inclusive educational approach.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die hoofdoel van die studie was om die verband tussen identiteitsontwikkeling en persoonlikheidstipevoorkeure tydens die adolessente ontwikkelingsfase te ondersoek. Die volgende twee vraelyste is gebruik: Die Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status (EOM-EIS-2) en die Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). Skool, geslag en taal is oorweeg as demografiese veranderlikes. Persoonlikheidstipevoorkeure het ses beduidende interaksies met die demografiese veranderlikes getoon. Die Denke-Gevoel-skaal het beduidend met geslag verband gehou. Die Sintuiglik-Intuïtiewe (S-N), Denke-Gevoel (T-J) en Beoordeling-Waarneming (J-P) skale is beduidend met taal geassosieer. Die Sintuiglik-Intuïtiewe (S-N) en Beoordeling- Waarneming (J-P) skale het beduidend met skool verband gehou. Identiteitstatus en die demografiese veranderlikes het ook beduidende verbande aangetoon. Geslag het 'n beduidende verband met interpersoonlike moratorium getoon. Skool en taal het elk ses beduidende interaksies met die identiteitsdiffusie-, premature sluiting- en moratoriumstatusse in die ideologiese en interpersoonlike domeine aangedui. Beduidende interaksies is gevind tussen identiteitstatus en twee dimensies van persoonlikheidstipevoorkeure, naamlik die Sintuiglik-Intuïtiewe (S-N) en Beoordeling- Waarneming (J-P) skale. Beduidende voorkeure ten opsigte van die Intuïtiewe (N) funksie in die ideologiese en interpersoonlike premature sluitingstatusse, sowel as in die interpersoonlike diffusie- en moratoriumstatusse is gevind. Beduidende voorkeure ten opsigte van die Waarnemende funksie is ook in die statusse van ideologiese en interpersoonlike premature sluiting, sowel as in interpersoonlike diffusie en moratorium aangedui. Sowel die Ekstroversie-Introversie (E-I) as die Denke-Gevoel (T-J) dimensies het geen beduidende interaksies met identiteitstatusse aangedui nie. Opvoedkundige implikasies en aanbevelings word aangespreek in terme van die aangeduide persoonlikheidstipes en -voorkeure, identiteitsontwikkeling, en die demografiese veranderlikes wat persoonlikheidstipevoorkeure en identiteitsontwikkeling affekteer. Aanbevelings met betrekking tot die aangeduide verband tussen identiteitstatus en persoonlikheidstipevoorkeure word ook gedoen. Die navorsing wil indiwiduele verskille en diversiteit (ten opsigte van identiteitsontwikkeling en persoonlikheidstipevoorkeure) beklemtoon, wat aansluit by 'n inklusiewe opvoedingsbenadering.

Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a genetic disorder caused by the lack of expression of the paternal alleles in the proximal region of chromosome 15‟s long arm. In the syndrome some of the following alterations are identified: neurobehavioral, neuroendrocrinal, breathing, psychiatric and nutritional. The main symptom is hyperphagia and its associated comorbidities. In Brazil nutritional intervention programs for PWS patients are scarce. Therefore, the general objective of this study was to implement and assess the efficiency of a specific nutritional program with hypocaloric diet for children and adolescents with Prader-Willi Syndrome. The sample consisted of a group of children and adolescents, age range 6-18 years old (mean age = 13 years old; mean IQ = 58,2/intellectual disability), and their respective mothers. All children presented clinical and cytogenetic-molecular diagnosis for the syndrome. The instruments for data collection were: a) nutritional anamnesis, b) assessment of anthropo-medical measures of weight, height, abdominal circumference and body mass index - BMI, c) report of the last 24 hours, d) Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL/6-18). The training and follow-up nutritional program with hypocaloric diet took 10 sessions and lasted 8 months. The strategies used were: workshops, prescriptions, lists of food substitution and recipes, informative tables about calories, prizes (tokens as positive reinforcers). The main results found in the Friedman test indicate that there was a statistically significant difference for the BMI and height. The mean of these values decreased between the first and the last assessment. It was observed a loss of 200g to 6.300g in the body weight. Correlation tests to verify the association between anthropo-medical measures and behavioral problems did not result in statistically significant coefficients. According to data from the nutritional anamnesis and the report of the last 24 hours, it was observed several difficulties faced by mothers to adhere to the program. Although not all anthropo-medical measures presented statistically significant differences, the decrease of weight and BMI reinforces the effectiveness of the program. This kind of low cost initiative can be implemented even in public health services.
A Síndrome de Prader Willi (SPW) é uma doença de origem genética causada pela ausência de expressão de alelos paternos da região proximal do braço longo do cromossomo 15. Na síndrome são identificadas alterações neurocomportamentais, neuroendócrinas, respiratórias, psiquiátricas e nutricionais. O sintoma cardinal da doença é a hiperfagia e as comorbidades associadas a esta. No Brasil há uma escassez de programas de intervenção nutricional para estes pacientes. O objetivo geral do estudo foi implementar e avaliar a eficácia de um programa nutricional específico com dieta hipocalórica para crianças e adolescentes com Síndrome de Prader Willi. A amostra foi composta por uma série de crianças e adolescentes com idade entre 6 e 18 anos (média de idade=13 anos e quociente de inteligência médio=58,2/deficiência intelectual) e suas respectivas mães. Todas as crianças apresentavam diagnóstico clínico e citogenético-molecular positivo para a síndrome Os instrumentos de coleta de dados foram os seguintes a) Anamnese Nutricional, b) Avaliação de medidas antropométricas de peso, estatura, circunferência abdominal e Índice de Massa Corporal-IMC, c) Recordatório de 24 horas, d) Inventário de Comportamentos de Crianças e Adolescentes de 6 a 18 anos (CBCL/6 18. O programa de treinamento e acompanhamento nutricional com dieta hipocalórica abrangeu 10 sessões de atendimento ao longo de 8 meses. Neste foram utilizadas os seguintes recursos: palestras, receituários, listas de substituições de alimentos e receitas, tabelas informativas sobre calorias, premiações (brindes como reforçador positivo). Os principais resultados apontaram na análise de variância de Friedman que nas medidas de IMC e estatura identificaram-se diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre as avaliações. As médias destas medidas diminuíram entre a primeira e a última avaliação. Especificamente no peso corporal verificou-se perda de peso entre 200 gr e 6.300 gr. Os testes de correlação para verificar associação entre medidas antropométricas e problemas de comportamento não mostraram coeficientes estatisticamente significativos. De acordo com dados da anamnese nutricional e do recordatório de 24 horas, verificaram-se diversas dificuldades enfrentadas pelas mães para aderir ao programa. Embora nem todas as medidas antropométricas mostraram diferenças estatisticamente significativas, a diminuição de peso e IMC observada evidencia indicadores de eficácia do programa aplicado. Iniciativas deste tipo são de baixo custo e podem ser implementadas, inclusive, nas unidades básicas de saúde.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association of total carbohydrate intake, total fat and saturated fats with hsCRP levels in adolescents aged 10 to 14 enrolled in public schools in Joao Pessoa, Brazil. METHODOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS: This is an epidemiological cross-sectional, school-based study, carried out based on data collected from a subsample of adolescents of both sexes, aged from 10 to 14 years, enrolled in the 6th grade – middle school in 2014, of the Longitudinal Study on Sedentary Behavior, Physical Activity, Eating Habits and Adolescent Health - Study LONCAAFS, held in João Pessoa, Brazil. The final sample consisted of 779 students. Socioeconomic data were collected (age, sex, economic class and skin color), nutritional status (BMI), food consumption data (total carbohydrates, total fats and saturated fats) and hsCRP. RESULTS: 54.56% female, 70.34% were between 11 and 12 years of age, 60.12% were of economic class C and 71.43% of the students were brown. 70% (539) of the students with altered levels of hsCRP. Of the students evaluated, 54.36% (293) are female. The prevalence of inadequate consumption was 29.25% in carbohydrates, 35.70% of total fats and 75.22% of saturated fats exceeding. 2.70% of the sample was classified as being underweight and 34.01% was the sum of those who were overweight or obese together. No significant independent associations were found between hsCRP and total carbohydrates, or total fats, or saturated fats, as well as skin color in the statistical models created. Significant associations of hsCRP with BMI, economic class and age were found. CONCLUSION: It is not possible to affirm the existence of an association between the inadequate consumption of macronutrients and the increase of serum levels of hsCRP in a sample of adolescents from public schools in Joao Pessoa, Brazil. The results also show a strong association between altered levels of hsCRP with nutritional status, age, and economic class.
OBJETIVO: Avaliar a associação do consumo de carboidratos, gorduras totais e saturadas com níveis de proteína C-reativa ultrassensível (PCR-us) em adolescentes de 10 a 14 anos matriculados em escolas públicas de João Pessoa, Brasil. CONSIDERAÇÕES METODOLÓGICAS: Trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico transversal, de base escolar, realizado com dados coletados de uma subamostra do primeiro ano (2014) do Estudo Longitudinal sobre Comportamento Sedentário, Atividade Física, Hábitos Alimentares e Saúde de Adolescentes – Estudo LONCAAFS, realizado em João Pessoa, com adolescentes de ambos os sexos, faixa etária de 10 a 14 anos, matriculados no sexto ano do ensino fundamental II. A amostra foi composta por 779 estudantes. Foram coletados dados socioeconômicos (idade, sexo, classe econômica e cor da pele), estado nutricional (índice de massa corporal – IMC), de consumo alimentar (carboidratos totais, gorduras totais e gorduras saturadas) e PCR-us. RESULTADOS: 54,56% da amostra era do sexo feminino, 70,34% tinha entre 11 e 12 anos de idade, 60,12% era da classe econômica C e 71,43% dos alunos eram pardos. A prevalência de PCR-us alterada foi de 70% (539) dos alunos. Destes, 54,36% (293) são do sexo feminino. Prevalência de consumo inadequado de macronutrientes foi de 29,25% nos carboidratos, 35,70% de gorduras totais e 75,22% de gorduras saturadas. A prevalência de sobrepeso/obesidade foi de 34%. Nos modelos estatísticos elaborados não foram encontradas associações independentes significativas entre PCR-us e carboidratos totais, ou gorduras totais, ou gorduras saturadas, assim como a cor da pele e sexo. Foram encontradas associações significativas da PCR-us com IMC, classe econômica e idade. CONCLUSÃO: Não é possível afirmar a existência de associação entre o consumo inadequado de macronutrientes e o aumento dos níveis séricos de PCR-us em uma amostra dos adolescentes de escolas públicas de João Pessoa, Brasil. Os resultados também mostram forte associação entre os níveis alterados de PCR-us com o estado nutricional, idade e classe econômica.

Full textIntroduction: The adolescence stands out as a high demand stage of nutrients. Nonetheless, food practices of this group often have been characterized as having high consumption of saturated fat and poor in nutrient-rich foods. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of inadequate nutrient intake and to calculates the variance components of energy and nutrient intake in adolescents from Sao Paulo, Brazil. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study from a representative sample of adolescents living in Sao Paulo, carried out on 2003. It was collected one 24-hour recall (24hr) for each subject (n=525) and also information about socioeconomic status and anthropometry. The intake variability measurement was performed using two replicates of 24hr in a subsample of this population, during 2007 and 2008. The usual nutrient intake was estimated using PC-SIDE software, that use the method developed at Iowa State University. The EAR cut-point method was chosen to calculate prevalence of inadequate nutrient intake between sexes and between familiar income per capita (FIPC) and parental educational levels, nutritional status and alcohol consumption. The groups were compared by proportions test. Contribution of the day of week and month of year in total variance were estimated using random effect models. It were calculated within- to between-person variance ratio (VR) and the number of replicates required to estimate habitual nutrient and energy intake in adolescents. Results: The highest prevalence of inadequate nutrient intake were regarding to vitamin E (99% e 99%), magnesium (89% e 84%), vitamin A (78% e 71%), vitamin C (79% e 73%, p<0.05) and phosphorus (49% e 71%, p<0.05), for male and female respectively. The proportion of individuals with calcium intake above recommended value was less than 1%. The prevalence of inadequate intake of vitamins A, C, B6 and B12, phosphorus and riboflavin is higher in lower FIPC and parental educational levels (p<0.05). The variance component analyses appointed out to unexpressive contribution (less than 8%) of the day of week and month of year to total variance. The VRs ranged from 1.15 for calcium to 7.31 for vitamin E. The number of replicates needed to estimate habitual nutrient intake ranged according to nutrient. It is approximately 15 for male and 8 for female.

Full textINTRODUCTION: the introduction of the highly active antiretroviral therapy in the treatment of AIDS might be associated with the emergence of metabolic disturbances in patients with HIV/AIDS. Apart from the antiretroviral therapy, other factors, such as diet may contribute to the emergence of these disturbances in adolescents with HIV/Aids. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate diet quality of individuals from this population. OBJECTIVE: to assess diet quality among adolescents with HIV/AIDS. METHODS: in a cross-sectional study nested in a cohort of patients with HIV/AIDS treated at the Infectious Disease Unity of the Instituto da Criança (ICr-São Paulo) 88 adolescents (10 to 19 years old) were assessed. Information on disease history and use of medication were obtained from medical records. Adolescents responded to two 24-hour recalls and one questionnaire on habitual physical activity. Weight, height and waist circumference were measured twice. Diet quality was assessed by means of the Healthy Eating Index-2005 (HEI-2005). The HEI-2005 is composed of 12 items and the final score ranges from 0 to 100 points. Pearson´s correlation coefficients between the HEI-2005 and the independent variables were calculated. HEI-2005 means were also compared according to the independent variables by means of Student´s t-test or Mann-Whitney test. RESULTS: The mean for the HEI-2005 was 51.90 points (SE=0.90 points). The components with the lowest means were whole grains and sodium. The components with highest means were total grains and oils. Adolescents living in foster homes had higher mean for total fruit and lower mean for meats and beans when compared to adolescents living with their families. Girls had higher mean for milk and dairy products and lower for calories from solid fats, alcoholic beverages, and added sugars when compared to boys. CONCLUSION: Adolescents with HIV/Aids showed an eating pattern similar to the adolescents from the general population: high consumption of added sugar, saturated fat and sodium and inadequate ingestion of whole grains and fruits. Special attention should be paid to the diet of adolescents with HIV/AIDS, because they are at higher risk of developing cardiovascular and other chronic diseases.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: An increasing number of children in South Africa are deprived of adequate parental care. Factors exacerbating the situation are the deaths of parents due to HIV/AIDS and contextual stressors like poverty and violence. Children removed from family care in accordance with stipulations of the Act on Child Care, were all exposed to factors of inadequate care like a lack of basic means of existence and/or physical, emotional or spiritual neglect or sexual abuse. The current thesis tried to determine to what extend these factors influence the social development of children. Theories of psychosocial development have shown that optimal social development starts with securing a strong positive and reciprocal emotional bond with the primary caregiver. This is the basis of personal security and interpersonal trust upon which further developmental elements like a positive self image, autonomy, pro-social behaviour, emotional well-being, moral values, the ability to find solutions to problems, self control and expectations about the future, will be based. Schema theory has confirmed the importance of positive developmental experiences in establishing positive expectations about social interaction. Negative developmental experiences will lead to dysfunctional schemas and selective processing of information. This will negatively influence emotional well-being, the ability to solve interpersonal problems and realistically assessing the self and others. Dysfunctional interpersonal patterns, inappropriate social behaviour and a less positive expectation of the future, will follow. Patterns of parental care are still important in adolescence and influence body image, sexual identity, academic achievement, career aspirations, values, autonomy and emotional well-being. Negative patterns of parenting, like loveless over-control and child abuse, lead to dysfunctional interpersonal expectations. Residential care increases the risk of diffused bonding, unless sufficient preventive measures are put in place. In the current thesis ten elements of interpersonal schemas were identified according to the above theories. Statistical comparisons of the elements were done using two groups of adolescents. Adolescents in the first group were removed from parental care in accordance with the Act on Child Care, while adolescents in the second group experienced continuous and adequate parental care. The results supported all of the hyphotheses, with a measure of ambivalence about autonomy. Psychosocial history was proved to be a measurable discriminating factor in adolescent interpersonal schemas. Sex proved to be a further discriminating factor in some elements. Girls were influenced most by the presence or lack of family security. In a second section, current programmes for social empowerment in use in children's homes, were evaluated according to the above results. Indications were given about possible adaptations and additions to therapeutic and skills programmes, the role of substitute families and character traits of staff that may help in limiting the risks of residential care.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: 'n Toenemende getal kinders in Suid-Afrika ontbeer deurlopende en toereikende gesinsorg. Faktore wat hiertoe bydra, is ouersterftes weens MIVNIGS en kontekstuele stressors soos armoede en geweld. Kinders wat uit gesinsorg verwyder word weens die bepalings van die Wet op Kindersorg, was almal blootgestel aan faktore van ontoereikende sorg soos gebrekkige bestaansmiddele en/of fisieke, emosionele of geestelike verwaarlosing of seksuele misbruik. Hierdie proefskrif het probeer vasstel in watter mate dié faktore die sosiale ontwikkeling van kinders beïnvloed. Teorieë omtrent psigososiale ontwikkeling toon aan dat optimale sosiale ontwikkeling begin by die vestiging van 'n sterk positiewe en wederkerige emosionele band met 'n primêre bindingsfiguur. Dit vorm die basis van persoonlike sekuriteit en interpersoonlike vertroue, waarop ontwikkelingselemente soos 'n positiewe selfsiening, outonomie, pro-sosialiteit, emosionele welstand, morele waardes, probleemoplossingsvaardighede, selfbeheer en toekomsverwagting gebaseer is. Skema-teorie bevestig die belang van positiewe ontwikkelings-ervarings in die daarstel van positiewe verwagtings omtrent sosiale interaksie. Negatiewe ontwikkelings-ervarings lei tot disfunksionele skemas, waarin inligting selektief verwerk word. Dit het 'n negatiewe uitwerking op emosionele welstand, die vaardigheid om interpersoonlike probleme op te los en realisties oor die self en ander te oordeel. Die gevolg is patrone van interpersoonlike wanaanpassing, ontoepaslike sosiale optrede en 'n minder positiewe toekomsverwagting. In adolessensie speelouerskapspatrone steeds 'n rol ten opsigte van liggaamsbeeld, geslagsidentiteit, akademiese prestasie, beroepsideale, waardes, outonome optrede en emosionele welstand. Negatiewe ouerskapspatrone, soos oormatige en liefdelose beheer en kindermishandeling, lei tot disfunksionele interpersoonlike verwagtings. Residensiële sorg verhoog die risiko vir diffuse bindingsgedrag, tensy doeltreffende voorsorgmaatreëls daargestel word. In die proefskrif is tien elemente van interpersoonlike skemas aan die hand van die teoretiese uiteensetting geïdentifiseer. 'n Statistiese vergelyking ten opsigte van die elemente is gedoen met twee groepe adolessente. Die eerste groep is weens wetlike bepalings uit ouersorg verwyder, terwyl die tweede groep deurlopende en toereikende ouersorg ervaar het. Die resultate het al die hipoteses ondersteun, met 'n mate van ambivalensie omtrent outonomie. Psigososiale geskiedenis was dus 'n meetbare onderskeidingsfaktor ten opsigte van interpersoonlike skemas in adolessensie. Geslag was 'n verdere meetbare faktor by sommige elemente. Dogters was die meeste beïnvloed deur die teenwoordigheid van óf gebrek aan gesinsekuriteit. In 'n tweede afdeling, is die bestaande programme van sosiale bemagtiging in kinderhuise geëvalueer in die lig van bogenoemde resultate. Aanbevelings is gedoen oor die aanpassing en uitbouing van terapeutiese en vaardigheidprogramme, die rol van substituut-gesinne en die eienskappe van personeel wat kan bydra om die risiko's van inrigtingsorg te verminder.

Full textEstudi de la incidència de factors emocionals relacionats amb ingesta alimentaria. Disseny descriptiu, observacional i transversal d’adaptació i validació cultural dels instruments d’avaluació de la ingesta emocional (EES-C) i de la conducta alimentària (EPI-C) en 379 adolescents no clínics (14 -18 anys). Es mantingué estructura factorial, validesa concurrent, discriminant i fiabilitat de les escales originals. Les noies presentaren major ingesta emocional en AAF i UNS de l’EES-C i puntuacions més elevades en DIER i EEAT en l’EPI-C. Els nois presentaren puntuacions més elevades en PAR. Es trobaren diferències significatives entre tipologies d’ingesta emocional en AAF, DEP i UNS i diferències de sexe. Un percentatge més elevat de noies pertanyien a la tipologia II i obtingué puntuacions més elevades en DIETA mesurada pel ChEAT i simptomatologia depressiva avaluada pel CDI. La restricció dietètica augmentà 3 vegades el risc de TCA, i un major control parental n'augmentà el risc 2 vegades.
