Association between abdominal adiposity and sociodemographic, clinical and anthropometric factors of farmers/ASSOCIACAO ENTRE A ADIPOSIDADE ABDOMINAL E OS FATORES SOCIODEMOGRAFICOS, CLINICOS E ANTROPOMETRICOS DE AGRICULTORES

Objective: To identify the association between abdominal adiposity and sociodemographic, clinical and anthropometric factors of farmers. Methodology: This is a descriptive cross-sectional, analytical study, presenting a quantitative character. Participants in the study were farmers who met the prerequisites for participation, being these aged 18 years or more, to be in work activity at the place and day of collection. The data collected addressed sociodemographic, clinical and anthropometric measures. Results: There was a significant association between CA and gender (p = 0.013), diabetes (p = 0.043), waist and hip ratio (p = 0.004) and body mass index (p = 0.000). Conclusion: It is concluded that there is an association between abdominal adiposity and gender, diabetes, waist and hip ratio and body mass index. In this sense, health education interventions for this population become relevant in order to guide them about lifestyle, since the sociodemographic, clinical and anthropometric factors associated with the increase in abdominal adiposity can be minimized through the implementation of programs education.

Objetivo: Identificar a associacao entre a adiposidade abdominal e os fatores sociodemograficos, clinicos e antropometricos de agricultores. Metodologia: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo de corte transversal, analitico, apresentando carater quantitativo. Participaram do estudo, agricultores que atenderam aos pre-requisitos de participacao, sendo estes com idade igual ou superior a 18 anos, estar em atividade laboral no local e dia da coleta. Os dados coletados abordavam aspectos sociodemograficos, clinicos e medidas antropometricas. Resultados: Observou-se que existe associacao significativa entre a CA e as variaveis genero (p=0,013), ter diabetes (p=0,043), relacao cintura e quadril alterada (p=0,004) e indice de massa corporal (p=0,000). Conclusao: Conclui-se que existe associacao entre a adiposidade abdominal e genero, diabetes, relacao cintura e quadril e indice de massa corporal. Neste sentido, torna-se relevante intervencoes de educacao em saude para esta populacao, a fim de orienta-los sobre o estilo de vida, visto que os fatores sociodemograficos, clinicos e antropometricos associadas ao aumento da adiposidade abdominal podem ser minimizados com a implantacao de programas de educacao para a saude.
