Abstract
The epidemic of obesity worldwide has been recognized as a very important challenge. Within its complexity, the identification of higher-risk patients is essential, as it is unsustainable to offer access to treatment to all people with obesity. Several new approaches have recently been presented as important tools for risk stratification. In this research, we applied several of these tools in a cross-sectional study involving adults with obesity classes I, II, III, and super-obesity. The participants had their cardiometabolic risk profiles assessed. The study included adults with obesity aged 18 to 50 years (n = 404), who were evaluated using anthropometric, body composition, hemodynamic, physical fitness, and biochemical assessments. These variables were used to identify the prevalence of risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases according to the classes of obesity by gender and age group. The results showed high prevalence of risk factors, especially among the upper classes of obesity (BMI > 35 kg/m2) using single parameters as the waist circumference, with almost 90% above the cut-off point. For smaller numbers such as Glycated Hemoglobin, however, the prevalence was around 30%. Indexes such as the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) had the highest prevalence, with 100% of the male participants identified as being at increased risk for cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
This article aims to evaluate associations between anthropometric changes in five years with lipid and blood pressure levels in Brazilian rural population. This longitudinal study evaluated 387 individuals aged 18 to 75 residents of two rural communities. Demographic, lifestyle, anthropometric, biochemical and hemodynamic characteristics were assessed in 2004 and repeated in 2009. Multivariate linear regression was used. Positive change in BMI was associated with increased diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (β = 0.07; 95%CI: 0.03-0.11), low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) (increase of 0.01% to 10%: β = 0.08; 95%CI: 0.02-0.14, more than 10% increase: β = 0.09; 95%CI: 0.01-0.16) and low density lipoprotein/high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (LDL-C/HDL-C) (increase of 0.01% to 10%: β = 0.15; 95%CI: 0.06-0.25, more than 10% increase: β = 0.14; 95%CI: 0.02-0.25). Our results showed no association between positive changes in WC and lipid levels increase, only with blood pressure levels increase (SBP: β = 0.06; CI95%:0.02-0.10; DBP: β = 0.09; CI95%: 0.04;0.13). Positive changes in BMI are independent predictors of increased lipid and blood pressure levels and positive changes in WC of increased blood pressure.

Abstract
Stevia rebaudiana (SR) is often used by the food industry due to its steviol glycoside content, which is a suitable calorie-free sweetener. Further, both in vitro and in vivo studies indicate that these glycosides and the extracts from SR have pharmacological and therapeutic properties, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and anticancer. This work reviews the antiobesity, antihyperglycemic, antihypertensive, and antihyperlipidemic effects of the majority of glycosides and aqueous/alcoholic extracts from the leaves, flowers, and roots of the SR. These compounds can serve as a natural and alternative treatment for diseases that are associated with metabolic syndrome, thus contributing to health promotion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of leprosy reduces health-related quality of life of affected patients, interfering with different factors such as nutrition. This study investigated the lipid profile, nutritional status, and risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients who underwent leprosy treatment in Brazil. METHODS Eighty-four adult patients of both genders ranging in age from 20 to 60 years and diagnosed with paucibacillary (PB) or multibacillary (MB) leprosy were selected after undergoing multidrug treatment. The following data were collected: sociodemographic and clinical data; food intake; anthropometric measures (weight, height, and waist circumference); and lipid profile components (total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-c], low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-c], and triglycerides). RESULTS Among the study population, there was a predominance of males (65.48%) aged 50 to 60 years, patients with an income of 248-496 American dollars (63.10%), patients who completed elementary school (65.48%), inactive patients (76.19%), non-smokers (46.43%), and non-drinking patients (69.05%). The levels (mean ± standard deviation) of total cholesterol were 193.8 ± 29.4 mg/dL in the PB form and 203.5 ± 41.7 mg/dL in the MB form. The mean LDL-c was 116.9 ± 22.7 mg/dL in PB patients and 121 ± 31.3 mg/dL in MB patients. Mean triglyceride levels were 123.4 ± 45.2 mg/dL in the PB form and 147.4 ± 88.9 mg/dL in the MB form. The evaluation of nutritional status showed that 41.67% of the patients were eutrophic, while 55.96% had excess weight. Food intake was significantly associated with HDL-c in male patients (P = 0.0264) and with triglycerides in patients above the ideal weight (P = 0.0049). CONCLUSIONS The risk of acquiring CVDs was observed to be high due to patients' excess weight and increased waist circumference. This study will guide clinicians in the adequate treatment of patients with leprosy in order to avoid adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the role of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and the hypertriglyceridemic-waist (HW) phenotype in determining cardiometabolic risk factors and elevated liver enzymes in a national sample of Iranian pediatric population. METHOD This nationwide study was conducted in the framework of the third survey of a surveillance program. Students, aged 10-18 years, were recruited from 27 provinces in Iran. The prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors was compared in students with and without HW and MetS. The association of HW with different cardiometabolic risk factors was determined. RESULTS The mean age of studied population was 14.73±2.41 years. Prevalence of HW and MetS was 3.3% and 4%, respectively. Sixty-nine (71.1%) participants with HW had MetS. The prevalence of obesity, elevated systolic blood pressure, hypercholesterolemia, and elevated alanine aminotransaminase (ALT) was significantly higher in subjects with HW phenotype and MetS than in their peers (p<0.05). A significant association was observed between HW and elevated levels of cholesterol and ALT, as well as between obesity and low HDL-C (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The current findings serve as complementary evidence to previous studies, which have been mainly conducted among adults, suggesting that the HW phenotype is associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, especially with elevated cholesterol and ALT. The authors propose that, in primary care settings and in large epidemiological studies, the measurement of all MetS components can be replaced by studying HW as a screening tool for identifying children at high risk for cardiometabolic disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to identify the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemic waist (HTW) phenotype, and to evaluate its association with metabolic abnormalities in adolescents of low socioeconomic status. METHOD This was a cross-sectional study with a random sample of 1,076 adolescents between 11 and 17 years, of both genders, from public schools. The participants underwent anthropometric measurements (weight, height, and waist circumference), and levels of total cholesterol, low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-HDL cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), and fasting glucose were measured. Information regarding the socioeconomic status of the participants' families was obtained. The HTW phenotype was defined by the simultaneous presence of increased waist circumference (≥ 90(th) percentile for age and gender) and serum triglyceride levels (≥ 100mg/dL). A logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the associations of interest. RESULTS The prevalence of HTW phenotype was 7.2% among the adolescents, being higher in the presence of obesity (63.4%) and high levels of non-HDL cholesterol (16.6%) and LDL-C (13.7%). The bivariate analysis indicated that, of the metabolic variables, only blood glucose was not associated with the HTW phenotype. Multivariate analysis adjusted for age and gender indicated that the HTW phenotype was positively associated with high non-HDL cholesterol (odds ratio: 7.0; 95% CI: 3.9-12.6) and low HDL-C levels (odds ratio: 2.7; 95% CI: 1.5-4.8). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that the HTW phenotype was associated with an atherogenic lipid profile, and this phenotype is suggested as a screening tool to identify adolescents with metabolic alterations.

Abstract
O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar qual indicador antropométrico apresenta maior relação com as anormalidades metabólicas em participantes de um programa de Mudança de Estilo de Vida. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa do tipo exploratória, transversal e analítica, na qual foram avaliados 273 adultos e idosos (idade superior a 40 anos) quanto ao Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC), circunferência cintura (CC), % gordura corporal (GT) e % massa muscular (%MM). Foi colhida amostra de sangue em jejum para dosagem de colesterol total e frações, triacilglicerol e glicose. Foram realizadas análises estatísticas para diferenciação entre os grupos e determinação de associações. O nível de significância adotado foi de p<0,05. Ao avaliar as anormalidades metabólicas como variável dependente e IMC, CC, GT, %MM como variáveis independentes, observamos que a CC foi o indicador antropométrico que mostrou melhor associação com todas as anormalidades metabólicas (p<0,0001), seguida da %MM. Conclui-se que as anormalidades metabólicas comumente associadas à obesidade apresentam como principal marcador de risco antropométrico a CC e não o IMC. Dado um mesmo valor de CC, sobrepesos e obesos apresentaram riscos à saúde comparáveis aos indivíduos eutróficos.

Abstract
O objetivo deste estudo transversal foi investigar a prevalência de sobrepeso e adiposidade central (AC) e suas relações com alterações no metabolismo de lipídeos, glicose e níveis pressóricos em uma amostra de 287 indivíduos adultos residentes em uma comunidade rural do Estado de Minas Gerais. Foram realizadas comparações de médias dos indicadores metabólicos: lipoproteínas, glicose e níveis pressóricos, segundo categorias de sobrepeso e AC, usando análise de variância e teste de Tukey. A prevalência de sobrepeso foi de 24,8% (37,4% no sexo feminino; 11,5% no sexo masculino). A AC esteve presente em 28,1% das pessoas (50,3% no sexo feminino; 4,3% no sexo masculino). Indivíduos com AC apresentaram maiores valores médios de pressão arterial (HA), colesterol total, LDL, triglicérides e glicemia de jejum; e menores valores médios de HDL. Foram verificadas associações entre AC e HA, dislipidemia e hiperglicemia. Associações significativas entre sobrepeso e HA, dislipidemia e hiperglicemia também foram evidenciadas. Esses resultados confirmam o potencial efeito das alterações na composição corporal, principalmente em nível central, sobre o metabolismo lipídico e de glicose, e também sobre o aumento dos níveis pressóricos em populações da área rural.

Abstract
OBJETIVO: Identificar variáveis sócio-demográficas e comportamentais potencialmente associadas à obesidade abdominal, em mulheres usuárias de unidade básica de saúde. MÉTODOS: Foram investigadas 827 mulheres entre 12 e 65 anos, residentes na região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil, utilizando-se desenho transversal. A obesidade abdominal foi definida como valores de circunferência da cintura >88cm. A associação entre obesidade abdominal e as covariáveis foi avaliada por meio da técnica de regressão logística não condicional, com modelos hierarquizados, que estimam os Odds Ratio e os respectivos intervalos de confiança de 95%. RESULTADOS: As maiores prevalências de obesidade abdominal foram encontradas em mulheres >51 anos (63,3%) e em mulheres com >5 partos (53,8%). As seguintes variáveis permaneceram associadas à obesidade abdominal no modelo final: idade (Odds Ratio variando entre 2,53 e 27,64), escolaridade <8 anos (Odds Ratio=1,49, intervalo de confiança 95%: 1,02 - 2,18), paridade 1 - 4 filhos (Odds Ratio=1,80, intervalo de confiança 95%: 1,04 - 3,12), >5 filhos (Odds Ratio=3,20, intervalo de confiança 95%: 1,48 - 6,90) e atividade física leve no trabalho (Odds Ratio=1,63, intervalo de confiança 95%: 1,01 - 2,64). As variáveis idade e índice de massa corporal também foram incluídas no modelo final para controlar confundimento. CONCLUSÃO: Conclui-se que a escolaridade e a paridade são potenciais preditores para o desenvolvimento da obesidade abdominal no grupo estudado e devem ser levados em consideração em estudos sobre obesidade.

Abstract
O crescimento de alterações da tolerância à glicose em populações rurais e a carência de dados nacionais sobre ocorrência de Síndrome Metabólica (SM) motivaram o desenvolvimento deste estudo de prevalência de SM no distrito rural de Cavunge, semi-árido baiano. Amostra aleatória de base populacional foi constituída por 240 indivíduos com idade > 25 anos, 102 (42,5%) homens e 138 (57,5%) mulheres, idade média 49,5 ± 14,9, variando de 25 a 87 anos. Para diagnóstico, utilizou-se a I Diretriz Brasileira de Diagnóstico e Tratamento da SM. A prevalência bruta foi de 30,0% e, após ajustamento por idade, 24,8%. Freqüência de SM foi maior em mulheres (38,4%) que em homens (18,6%), mais elevada entre aqueles com idade > 45 anos (41,4%) que naqueles com idade < 45 anos (15,9%). Estratificação por sexo e idade revelou prevalência maior entre mulheres com idade > 45 anos (56,9%), possivelmente associada à menopausa. Presença de SM na ausência de seus componentes melhor estabelecidos, alteração da glicemia e obesidade, sugere a importância do diagnóstico sindrômico, sinalizado pelo elevado valor preditivo encontrado para algumas alterações metabólicas isoladas. A alta prevalência justifica atenção ao tratamento do conjunto da síndrome, retardando ou evitando conseqüências futuras, como diabetes e doença cardiovascular.

Abstract
Estudo transversal de base populacional na Cidade de Pelotas, Sul do Brasil, entre 1999 e 2000, para descrever a distribuição de adiposidade abdominal na população de acordo com os níveis de intervenção e identificar fatores de risco. O estudo incluiu uma amostra de 1.935 adultos (20-69 anos) residentes na zona urbana do município. Obesidade abdominal foi classificada como nível I para circunferência da cintura (CCnI) de 80-88cm em mulheres e de 94-102cm em homens; e nível II (CCnII) > 88cm para mulheres e > 102cm para homens. Apresentavam obesidade abdominal 62% das mulheres e 37% dos homens. Os valores de CCnI foram 23% e 19% e de CCnII 39% e 19%, para mulheres e homens, respectivamente. Após ajuste para fatores de confusão, o aumento da idade e estar casado ou vivendo em união, em homens e mulheres, mantiveram-se fortemente associadas com CCnII. Escolaridade manteve-se como fator de risco apenas para homens e renda familiar apenas para mulheres, nas quais, o efeito da renda manteve-se inversamente associado com a obesidade abdominal. A utilização da medida da CC deveria ser incorporada às ações de promoção à saúde, principalmente, no acompanhamento e monitoramento da população.
