0276/2023 - EXISTEM DIFERENÇAS ENTRE HOMENS E MULHERES QUANTO AOS FATORES ASSOCIADOS À INGESTÃO DE CÁLCIO? ARE THERE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN REGARDING THE FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH CALCIUM INTAKE?
OBJETIVO: verificar se existem diferenças entre os sexos quanto aos fatores que se associam à ingestão de cálcio. METODOLOGIA: estudo realizado com dados de inquérito de saúde, em amostra de 1640 indivíduos de 20 anos ou mais residentes no município de Campinas-SP. A ingestão de cálcio foi obtida por meio de um recordatório de 24 horas (R24h) e analisada segundo variáveis sociodemográficas, de comportamentos de saúde, frequência de refeições e índice de massa corporal (IMC); a presença de associações foi verificada por meio de testes de regressão linear múltipla. RESULTADOS: o perfil de fatores associados à ingestão de cálcio diferiu entre os sexos. A prática de atividade física no contexto de lazer só se associou ao consumo de cálcio no sexo masculino, enquanto cor da pele, tabagismo, renda, excesso de peso e frequência do café da manhã mostraram associação apenas no sexo feminino. Escolaridade e realização de lanches intermediários mostraram-se associadas à ingestão de cálcio em ambos os sexos. CONCLUSÃO: a análise aponta segmentos da população feminina e masculina em que a importância da ingestão de cálcio precisa ser mais enfatizada; além disso, alerta para a importância do desenvolvimento de análises de saúde estratificadas por sexo em decorrência de diferentes padrões comportamentais que prevalecem entre os sexos.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: to verify if there are differences in factors associated with calcium intake between men and women. METHODOLOGY: a study conducted with dataa health survey, in a sample of 1641 individuals aged 20 years or more living in the urban area of the city of Campinas-SP. Calcium intake was obtained through the one 24-hour recall (24-hour R24h) and analyzed according to sociodemographic variables, health behaviors, frequency of meals and body mass index (BMI); the presence of associations was verified by multiple linear regression tests. RESULTS: the profile of associated factors differed between genders. The physical activity in the context of leisure was only associated with calcium intake in males, while skin color, smoking, income, overweight/obesity, and frequency of breakfast showed association only in females. Schooling and intermediate snacks were associated with calcium intake in both sexes. CONCLUSION: the analysis of the associated factors indicates segments of the female and male population in which the importance of calcium intake needs to be more emphasized; in addition, it warns of the importance of developing health analyses stratified by sex due to the different behavioral patterns that prevail in men and women.
