0048/2021 - PREVALENCE OF AND RISK FACTORS FOR DYNAPENIC ABDOMINAL OBESITY IN COMMUNITY-DWELLING OLDER ADULTS: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY PREVALÊNCIA E FATORES DE RISCO PARA OBESIDADE ABDOMINAL DINAPÊNICA EM IDOSOS RESIDENTES NA COMUNIDADE: UM ESTUDO TRANSVERSAL
Objetivo: Identificar a prevalência e os fatores associados à obesidade abdominal dinapênica (OAD) em idosos de uma cidade da região norte do Brasil. Método: Estudo transversal realizado com 382 idosos comunitários residentes em Macapá, Amapá, Brasil. As informações socioeconômicas, clínicas e de saúde foram coletadas por meio de um formulário estruturado. A OAD foi definida pela combinação de dinapenia (força de preensão manual 88 cm para mulheres). As análises descritivas e inferenciais foram realizadas utilizando os testes qui-quadrado, testes t de Student e regressão de Poisson (p
