Adolescentes rurais: comportamentos de risco para doenças crônicas não transmissíveis em um município do interior do estado do Pará
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-03-15) OLIVEIRA, Victor Vieira de; ARAÚJO, Marília de Souza; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9371703949781020
Recent studies have demonstrated the epidemiological transition and the increased occurrence of Noncommunicable Chronic Diseases (NCD), especially among adolescents in less developed countries, and in those who live in poor areas. Although it is recognized that these diseases are more commonly perceived in adults, their manifestations are the result of the interaction of risk factors acquired at an early age. Therefore, the objective of this research was to identify the risk factors for NCDs in adolescents from the rural area of a town in the northeast of the state of Pará, Brazil, as well as to present the risk factors for NCDs through the following variables: physical activity, tobacco use, alcohol consumption, Body Mass Index, waist circumference and blood pressure, identifying the possible associations between these variables with the socio-demographic, socioeconomic conditions and with the behavioral and alimentary markers. An observational, cross-sectional epidemiological study was carried out on a representative sample of students of both sexes, aged between 15 and 19 years, enrolled in the regular high school of six public schools in the rural area of the municipality of Ipixuna-PA. The data were obtained through a questionnaire and clinical evaluation, being analyzed by means of explanatory analysis and univariate and multiple logistic regression, considering a significance level of 5% (p < 0,05) and a 95% confidence interval (CI). The sample consisted mostly of female individuals, with an average age of 17 years, who were insufficiently active, who had already experienced alcohol and tobacco, belonging to the most socially vulnerable strata and who had a poor-fiber diet, but rich in fats and sugar. The sedentary lifestyle was significantly related to the female sex, while the risk of altered blood pressure and tobacco experimentation were significantly related to the male sex. Socioeconomic conditions have been shown to influence mainly blood pressure increase, tobacco experimentation, and waist circumference, while older age has been shown to be a protective factor for abdominal obesity. Likewise, the consumption and experimentation of alcohol and tobacco showed to have their use combined, as well as the presence of abdominal obesity and overweight. Inadequate feeding, in turn, was associated with the greater risk of the adolescent being insufficiently active. This study makes clear the need for more effective public policies aimed at raising awareness of the need for a healthier lifestyle among adolescents in rural areas.

Over the last years, the World Health Organization (WHO), the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and the Ministry of Health (MS) have been prioritizing geographic areas with high case detection and social determinants that increase the risk of illness of its inhabitants in favor of the geographic policies to combat the endemic leprosy. The current study aims to characterize the disease, its epidemiological, operational and socio-demographic variables and the policies developed for its control and elimination. Thus, there was a transversal, retrospective and descriptive study, on the population basis with a temporal and spatial analysis of new leprosy cases that was associated with the income population condition and the level of health services in three cities in the state of Pará : Ananindeua, Marabá and Xinguara. Using the digital cartographic basis and socioeconomic data of each city, developed by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) and the morbidity registered in the SINAN, the new cases diagnosed during the period of 2010 to 2015 were characterized, by census sector, aiming to subsidize the analysis, as well as intervention strategies. The Epi Info 7 and Bioestat 5.0 softwares were used for the statistical tests, in which it was hypothesized that there is a positive relationship between the epidemiological variables and the other ones. The cases were geographically referenced on site, using a Global Positioning System receiver (GPS) and theses very cases were specialized using a Geographic Information System (GIS). The Kernel estimation method was applied in order to obtain spatial analysis and aiming to highlight areas of higher case density and also where the best levels of patient care were found. The real risk of occurrence of leprosy in each area was analyzed using the Buffer technique, as from the incidence in children under 15 years old and multibacillary cases. Considering the problem and the use of the aforementioned methods and techniques, a collection of tables and graphs of the main indicators and the magnitude of the hidden prevalence of leprosy was generated, as well as a variety of digital images that express the disease spatial analysis. The results shown in thematic maps reveal an inhomogeneous distribution of leprosy in the territories, highlighting areas of greater and lower risk and allowing to identify those that could be taken as a priority by the Leprosy Control Program.

Katuana da Amazônia: consumo alimentar e associação com o risco cardiovascular em população urbana
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-03-28) SOUZA, Adriano Augusto Reis; BASTOS, Maria do Socorro Castelo Branco de Oliveira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6751930840883503
Objectives: To evaluate dietary intake and its association with the risk of coronary artery disease in urban population over 30 years of age; to describe the cardiovascular risk by the Framingham score; verify the food and food groups consumed in the study population; to analyze the association between dietary intake and the high and low risk groups by the Framingham score. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was carried out involving 267 individuals per randomized random sample from the periphery of the city of Belém do Pará. Biological samples were collected for biochemical tests and measurements of weight, height and blood pressure. A questionnaire on socioeconomic characteristics at home and a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) were used to collect information on food consumption. The consumption of food was reclassified for analysis in regular and non-regular consumption. Cardiovascular risk was calculated from clinical and biochemical data using the Framingham cardiovascular risk scale and classifying subjects into two groups: high and low cardiovascular risk. After this classification, associations were analyzed with sociodemographic, anthropometric variables and food consumption data obtained through the FFQ. Results: 22.5% of the group were at high risk for developing coronary artery disease and 77.5% were low risk, according to the Framingham score. Of the population that presented high risk, 65% were women, 91.7% referred predominantly brown or black; 68.3% belonged to classes B and C; the median per capita income was R$ 300.70; the median age was 47 years; the median number of years of study was 8 years; 65.9% had a marital relationship; 76.7% were overweight and 41.7% had increased waist circumference. Regarding the regular food consumption of the studied population, 62.9% consumed whole milk, 13.9% red meat, 50.2% margarine, 65.5% cassava flour, 8.6% soda, 10.5% skimmed milk, 38.6% beans and 15.7% consumed five daily servings of fruit vegetables. Conclusion: The present study observed that the population studied presented a fairly homogeneous diet, probably due to the similarities of purchasing power and eating habits. Thus, this study did not find statistical association between cardiovascular risk and food consumption in this population group.

Pacientes portadores de diabetes mellitus tipo2 atendidos no Instituto de Previdência e Assistência do município de Belém IPAMB: aspectos epidemiológicos e genéticos
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-06-18) OLIVEIRA, Bárbara de Alencar; GUERREIRO, João Farias; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1000688763895346
Diabetes mellitus has been considered a 21st century epidemic and each year the number of people with the disease increases worldwide. It is a disease caused by modifiable factors such as hypercaloric diet, sedentary lifestyle, and non-modifiable factors such as genetic heritability. The objective of this study was to describe the occurrence of genetic markers associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the population of the city of Belém do Pará, Brazil. The specific objectives were: to validate the association between type 2 diabetes mellitus and the genes: KCNJ11 rs5219, TCF7L2 rs7901695, PPARγ rs1801282, ABCA1 rs9282541, FTO rs8050136 and rs9939609; and investigate the association between factors related to the development and evolution of type 2 diabetes mellitus such as: BMI, waist circumference, systemic arterial hypertension, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, alcoholism and metabolic syndrome. A research form was applied and blood was collected for DNA extraction. A case-control study was conducted with 147 individuals. The sample consisted of 54 women and 49 men, totaling 103 individuals with the disease, and the control group with 27 women and 17 men without type 2 diabetes mellitus, pre-diabetes or any other type of diabetes, totaling 44 individuals. The study was carried out at the Belém Municipal Institute of Welfare and Care. Regarding the genes studied, only KCNJ11 rs5219 was statistically significant in women (n = 81, p = 0.025). Considering the factors associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus, only the metabolic syndrome presented statistical significance in both genders (p = 0.01).
