Métodos: foi realizado um estudo transversal de base populacional com amostragem por conglomerados. Foram estudados 3136 adultos residentes na cidade de Pelotas/RS. A freqüência de cada passo da alimentação saudável foi coletada através de questionário pré-codificado. Resultados: 1,1% da população segue todos os passos recomendados. O número médio de passos realizados foi seis. O passo que apresentou maior freqüência de realização foi o passo quatro, relativo ao consumo de sal; e o passo que apresentou menor freqüência foi o passo nove, relativo à prática de atividade física. Conclusão: a freqüência de alimentação saudável foi muito baixa. O conhecimento dos hábitos alimentares na população e sua distribuição conforme variáveis demográficas e socioeconômicas são importantes para orientar estratégias locais e nacionais a fim de promover hábitos saudáveis de alimentação e conseqüente melhoria da qualidade de vida. / Objective: measure frequency and associated factors to eating habits using the 10 steps to Healthy Eating proposed by the Ministry of Health in the adult population, 20 years old or over, in Pelotas / RS. Methodology: a population based survey, with a sampling for conglomerate, was carried out. 3136 adults residents in the city of Pelotas were studied. The frequency of each step to healthy eating was collected through a pre-codified questionnaire. Results: 1,1% of the population follows all the recommended steps. The average number of steps was six. Step four, concerning the intake o salt, showed the highest frequency; step nine, concerning physical activity, showed the lowest frequency in the study. Conclusion: the frequency of healthy eating was very low. The knowledge about eating habits in the population and their distribution factors according to demographic and socio-economics variables are important to guide local and national strategies aiming to promote healthy eating habits and therefore improve life quality.

Métodos: Realizado estudo transversal de base populacional com 3100 adultos (≥ 20 anos) moradores de Pelotas situada ao sul do Brasil. O processo de amostragem foi feito por conglomerados em múltiplos estágios. Foram analisados fatores socioeconômicos, demográficos e de saúde, além do número de consultas no período de três meses anteriores à entrevista. Considerou-se superutilização de consultas a referência de quatro ou mais consultas no período estudado. As análises multivariadas foram baseadas em um modelo conceitual de análise, sendo considerados a amostragem por conglomerados. Resultados: A prevalência de consulta ao médico foi de 55,1%. A maior probabilidade de consultar esteve associada às mulheres, viver com companheiro(a), hospitalização no ano anterior, ser ex-fumante, ser diabético e ser hipertenso. Verificou-se uma tendência de consultar conforme o avanço da idade e piora da autopercepção de saúde. A prevalência de superutilização de consultas foi de 9%. Esta se as Conclusões: Verificando os determinantes individuais para consultar o médico, o atual estudo detecta alguns subgrupos da população que utiliza e superutiliza os serviços de saúde. Esse conhecimento é essencial para os gestores em saúde, que poderiam organizar melhor o sistema baseado na real demanda populacional. / Aims: To explore individual characteristics related to a greater likelihood of consulting a physician, and to evaluate excess of consultations. Methods: Population-based cross-sectional study including 3100 adults (≥ 20 years) living in Pelotas, a southern Brazilian city. The sample was selected in multiplestages. Socio-economic, demographic and health-related variables were investigated, as well as the number of consultations within the three months prior to the interview. Over utilization was defined as four or more consultations in the period. Multivariable analysis was based on a conceptual framework, and took the clustering of the sample into account. Results: The prevalence of consultation was 55,1%. Women, those living with partners, hospitalized in the previous 12 months, former smokers, diabetic and hypertensive subjects were most likely to visit a physician in the previous three months. While age was positively related to the number of consultations, selfreported health status showed the inverse pattern. The prevalence of over utilization was 9%. Over utilization was higher among women, those hospitalized in the previous 12 months and with history of hypertension. Age and body mass index were positively related to over consultation, while selfreported health status presented a negative trend. Conclusion: Focusing on the individuals determinants of medical consultations, our study detects some sub-groups of the entire population which use and over use health services. These data are essential for policy makers, in order to better organize health services based on the real demand.

Foram entrevistados 810 adolescentes entre 10-19 anos, residentes na zona urbana de Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. O desfecho estudado foi definido de acordo com a Organização Mundial da Saúde (IMC ≥ Percentil 85, segundo idade e sexo conforme a população de referência do I National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey - NHANES I). O processo amostral foi por conglomerados e as análises bruta e ajustada (Regressão de Poisson) levaram em conta o efeito de delineamento. A prevalência de sobrepeso em adolescentes foi de 19,3% (IC95% 16,6 – 22,0) e não houve diferença entre os sexos. Adolescentes pertencentes aos níveis econômicos mais elevados, que realizaram dieta para emagrecer nos três meses anteriores à entrevista, que assistiam quatro horas ou mais de televisão por dia e que realizavam apenas uma ou duas refeições diárias apresentaram maior proporção de sobrepeso. Na análise ajustada, o sobrepeso nos meninos esteve diretamente associado com nível econômico e, nas meninas, com as variáveis dieta para emagrecer, número de horas diárias assistindo televisão e inversamente associado com o número de refeições. / The prevalence of overweight and its association with demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral and biological variables was evaluated. A sample of 810 adolescents (10-19 years) living in the urban area of Pelotas, a southern Brazilian city, was investigated. Overweight was defined as a body mass index ≥the 85th percentile according to sex and age according to I National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey - NHANES I, following the World Health Organization reccomendation for adolescents. A clustering sampling strategy was used, and both the crude and adjusted analyses (Poisson Regression) took this strategy into account. The prevalence of overweight was 19.3% (CI95% 16.6; 22.0) and was similar by sex. The following groups presented a greater likelihood of being overweight: those classified in the wealthiest socioeconomic groups, those who had dieted to loose weight within the previous 3 months, those who watch 4 or more hours of television per day, and those who have less than 3 regular meals per day. After stratification by gender, high socioeconomic level was related to a greater risk of overweight among boys, and diet to loose weight in the previous 3 months, 4 or more hours of TV viewing per day and less than 3 formal meals per day were risk factors for overweight among girls.

Métodos: Em um estudo transversal, de base populacional, com mulheres de 15 a 49 anos, questionários domiciliares foram aplicados para medir a prevalência de SPM através de um escore, construído a partir de cinco sintomas pré-menstruais que interferiam na vida familiar ou levavam à falta ao trabalho ou a escola. Associações entre alguns fatores socioeconômicos, demográficos e comportamentais e SPM foram estudados. SPM auto referida foi investigada e considerando o escore de SPM como padrão ouro, sua sensibilidade e especificidade foram testadas. Resultados: A prevalência de SPM foi de 25,2% (IC 95% 22,5; 27,9) e de SPM auto-referida 60,3% (IC 95% 57,4; 63,3). Os principais sintomas pré-menstruais foram: irritabilidade, desconforto abdominal, nervosismo, cefaléia, cansaço e mastalgia, todos acima de 50 % de prevalência. Mulheres de melhor nível econômico, maior escolaridade, menores de 30 anos e com pele branca apresentaram risco mais elevado. As usuárias de psicofármacos e as que não usavam anticoncepção hormonal apresentaram maior prevalência. A sensibilidade do teste foi de 94%, a especificidade 51% e a acurácia 62%. Conclusões: Foi alta a prevalência de SPM em Pelotas e, embora a percepção das mulheres seja maior do que aquela medida com o escore, ainda assim, um quarto das mulheres apresenta esse problema de saúde. / Objective: To study the prevalence and associated factors of the Pre Menstrual Syndrome (PMS), by characterizing its most common symptoms, and compare the prevalence with self-reported PMS. Methods: In a cross-sectional population-based study, including women aged 15 to 49 years old, questionnaires were applied at home to measure PMS prevalence, through a score based on five premenstrual symptoms that interfered in family life or that led to work or school absence. The association between some socioeconomic, demographic and behavioral variables and PMS were investigated. Self-reported PMS was investigated and taking into account PMS score as the gold standard, the sensitivity and specificity of the selfreported PMS were tested. Results: The prevalence of PMS was of 25.2% (CI 95% 22,5; 27,9) and of the self-reported PMS was of 60.3% (CI 95% 57,4; 63,3). The main symptoms found were: irritability, stomachache, nervousness, headache, fatigue and mastalgia, all of them with more than 50% of prevalence. Women with white skin, higher economic level, better education level and younger than 30 years old presented greater risk of PMS. Psychotropic drugs users, and women who were not in use hormonal contraceptive presented a higher prevalence of PMS. The self-reported PMS sensitivity was of 94%, the specificity was of 51% and the accuracy of 62%. Conclusions: Although self-reported PMS was higher than those measured by the symptoms score, about one quarter of women presented PMS based on five premenstrual symptoms and repercussions in women’s daily life.

Metodologia: Delineamento transversal, com indivíduos de idade igual ou superior a 20 anos, da zona urbana de Pelotas,RS. O instrumento foi um questionário estruturado, aplicado através de entrevistas individuais. Na análise bivariada, utilizaram-se os testes qui-quadrado e de tendência linear. A análise multivariada foi conduzida seguindo modelo hierarquizado, utilizandose a regressão de Poisson. Foi considerado estatisticamente significante o valor p  0,05 bi-caudal. Resultados: Entre os 3159 participantes, a prevalência de intenção de doar órgãos foi de 52%, sendo que 58% destes haviam expressado sua vontade a um familiar. A maioria dos entrevistados (80,1%) autorizaria a doação de órgãos após a morte de familiar que houvesse manifestado previamente sua vontade de ser doador. Entretanto, apenas 63% autorizaria a doação de órgãos de familiar com morte cerebral. Enquanto o tema não havia sido discutido, somente um terço das pessoas autorizariam a doação dos órgãos de seus familiares. Após ajuste para fatores de confusão, caracterizou-se a maior intenção entre os mais jovens, os de maior escolaridade e indivíduos com renda familiar acima de 10 salários mínimos. Os praticantes da religião Evangélica e Testemunha de Jeová referiram menos intenção. Conclusão: Neste estudo, metade dos indivíduos não autorizaria a doação de órgãos de familiares que não comunicaram sua intenção. O entendimento de morte cerebral, como critério de morte, pode ser uma barreira à doação de órgãos. / Não possui abstract.

Métodos: Os pacientes foram avaliados durante as primeiras 72 horas de internação, sendo a avaliação subjetiva global realizada segundo Detzky e a bioimpedância elétrica segundo padronização de Lukaski. Foram calculados os seguintes índices pela bioimpedância elétrica: massa celular corporal em kg e em percentual do peso atual, razão massa extra celular/massa celular corporal (MEC/MCC), Nae/Ke, ângulo de fase(AF) e coeficiente de impedância elétrica (CIE), utilizando como pontos de corte os valores citados na literatura. Resultados: Não houve boa concordância entre os resultados obtidos pela avaliação subjetiva global e bioimpedância elétrica, sendo a melhor concordância obtida entre as mulheres, com a razão MEC/MCC maior 1,22 e AF. As médias dos diversos parâmetros da bioimpedância elétrica, no entanto, mostraram que, com exceção do percentual de massa celular corporal, todos os parâmetros aumentaram ou diminuíram conforme piora do estado nutricional segundo avaliação subjetiva global. A construção de curvas ROC para o AF e CIE mostraram que os pontos de corte da literatura utilizados tornam o teste muito sensível ou específico. Nenhum ponto de corte alternativo fornece ao teste sensibilidade e especificidade adequadas. Porém é possível estabelecer pontos de corte com alta sensibilidade e especificidade para que o método seja usado para rastreamento dos pacientes hospitalizados com desnutrição. Conclusões: Embora os métodos não sejam comparáveis, a avaliação subjetiva global e a bioimpedância elétrica podem ser complementares na avaliação do estado nutricional em pacientes cirúrgicos. / Objective: The objective was to compare subjective global assessment and bioelectrical impedance analysis. We studied 279 patients in a prospective way, who were planned to have an elective gastrointestinal surgical procedure. Design: Patients were evaluated during the first 72 hours after admission. Subjective global assessment was performed according to Detzky and bioelectrical impedance analysis according to Lukaski. It was obtained from bioelectrical impedance the indexes: body cell mass in kg and as current weight percentage, extracellular mass/body cell mass ratio (ECM/BCM), Nae/Ke ratio, phase angle (PA) and electric impedance coeficient (EIC), using values mentioned in literature as cut-off values. Results: There was not a good agreement between subjective global assessment and bioelctrical impedance analysis results. The best agreement was obtained in women, with ECM/BCM above 1,22 and PA. Nevertheless, the bioelectrical parameters average showed that, except body cell mass pencentage, all of them increased or decreased as nutritional status became worse by subjective global assessment. The PA and EIC ROC curves showed a too sensitive or too specific test were resulted by using that cut-off values. No one alternative cut-off values gave an appropiate sensitivity and specificity to the test. However, it's possible to determine high sensitivity and specificity cut-off points to use it as a malnutrition screening test in hospitalized patients. Conclusions: Although they are not comparable methods, subjective global assessment and bioelectrical impedance analysis may be complemental in nutritional assessment of sugical patients.

Métodos Estudo transversal de base populacional incluindo 580 crianças de 144 setores censitários. Foram utilizadas fotografias de oito pares de alimentos, cada par composto por um alimento considerado saudável e outro similar, com alta densidade energética e/ou baixo valor nutricional. Escores de conhecimentos e de preferências foram criados, variando de 0 a 10. A análise incluiu testes t, correlação de Pearson, teste de tendência linear (ANOVA), e regressão linear múltipla. Resultados O escore médio para conhecimento (6,6) foi superior ao de preferências adequadas (4,0). A associação entre conhecimento e preferências foi fraca (r=0,15; P<0,001). Nas análises ajustadas, o conhecimento foi maior entre meninas e entre crianças mais velhas, de nível social alto, que já freqüentavam a escola e naquelas em séries mais adiantadas. O efeito positivo da escolaridade da mãe sobre o conhecimento foi maior entre crianças mais velhas e que cursavam séries mais adiantadas. As únicas variáveis associadas com as preferências alimentares foram a freqüência à escola e uma interação positiva entre escolaridade materna e idade da criança. Conclusões As crianças apresentaram um conhecimento adequado sobre a qualidade dos alimentos, mas preferiram alimentos de alta densidade energética. / Objective To describe food preferences and knowledge about healthy foods in a sample of children aged 3-9 years living in the city of Pelotas, Brazil, the association between these variables and their main determinants. Methods A cross-sectional survey included 580 children living in 144 urban census tracts. Photographs of pairs of foodstuffs, including a healthy food and another with high energy density or poor nutritional value, were shown to the children. Two sets of scores, ranging from 0 to 10, were created for assessing knowledge and preferences. Data analysis methods included t-tests, Pearson correlation coefficients, ANOVA for linear trend and multiple linear regression. Results The mean knowledge score (6.6) was higher than the preference score (4.0). The correlation between the two scores was low (r=0.15). In the adjusted analyses, knowledge scores were higher for girls, for older children, for those with higher socioecomic status families, those attending schools and, among the latter, in higher grades. The positive effect of maternal schooling was greater among older children and for those attending higher grades. The only variables associated with adequate food preferences were school attendance and a positive interaction between maternal schooling and the child’s age. Conclusions The children presented reasonably good knowledge about healthy foods, but expressed a preference for foods with high energy content.

Methods: A representative sample of individuals aged 20 years was selected following a multiple-stage strategy. Physical activity was evaluated using the leisure-time section of the long International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Eight barriers were investigated: feel too old to exercise, have an injury or disease, dislike exercising, being too tired to exercise, lack of money, fear of injuries, lack of company, and lack of time. These barriers were chosen after a review of the most-frequently reported barriers to physical activity in the literature, and analysis of the most-frequently reported barriers in two pilot studies using open questions. Results: Eighty-five percent of the 3100 individuals interviewed reported at least one barrier. The barrier with the highest prevalence was lack of money (40.3%), followed by feel too tired to exercise (38.1%), lack of company (32.2%), and lack of time (31.5%). Women, the elderly, and those with worse socioeconomic indicators were more likely to perceive most barriers. A strong dose-response relationship between the number of barriers and physical inactivity was observed. After adjustment for potential confounders, dislike exercising, feel too tired to exercise, lack of money, lack of company, and lack of time were significant predictors of physical inactivity. Conclusion: Although our data arise from a single Brazilian city, they suggest that correlates of physical inactivity between developed and developing countries are different, and therefore, interventions to promote physical activity should use site-specific data. The high rates of the perceived barriers, and the strong association found between them and leisure-time physical activity highlight the need of interventions to help people overcome these barriers.

Comparar esses resultados com um estudo de 1994, realizado na mesma cidade, Pelotas, RS. Metodologia: Em um estudo transversal de base populacional, 3542 indivíduos de 15 anos ou mais foram selecionados na zona urbana de Pelotas. A amostragem foi realizada em múltiplos estágios. Dados foram coletados em entrevistas domiciliares, utilizando um questionário idêntico ao utilizado em 1994. As variáveis estudadas foram idade, sexo, cor da pele, situação conjugal, renda familiar, escolaridade, tabagismo, diagnóstico médico de hipertensão e consulta médica nos últimos três meses. Resultados: Em 2003, a prevalência de consumo de psicofármacos foi de 9,9% (IC95% 8,9-10,9). Não houve diferença significativa em relação à prevalência de 11,9% (IC95% 10,1-13,7), observada em 1994, ao comparar as prevalências padronizadas por idade. O sexo feminino, o aumento da idade, o diagnóstico médico de hipertensão e a utilização de serviços médicos associaram-se significativamente em 1994 e 2003 a um maior consumo de psicofármacos. Em 2003, 74% dos usuários estavam utilizando psicofármacos há mais de três meses. Conclusões: Após uma década, a prevalência permanece alta, porém o consumo de psicofármacos não aumentou, entretanto a alta prevalência de uso crônico é preocupante. Esses achados mostram a importância da indicação adequada dos psicofármacos e do acompanhamento médico regular desses usuários. / Purposes: To assess the prevalence and patterns of psychotropic use in a two-week recall. To compare the results with a study carried out in 1994 at same city, Pelotas, Southern Brazil. Methods: In a population-based cross-sectional study carried out in 2003, 3542 participants aged 15 years or more were selected from an urban area in Southern Brazil using a multistage sampling design. Data were collected in household interviews through the same questionnaire used in the 1994 study. The variables studied were age, gender, race, schooling, family income, marital status, smoking, hypertension and physician consultation at last three months. Results: In 2003, the overall prevalence of psychotropic use was 9,9%(CI 95% 8,9-10,9). There was not significant difference when compared with the prevalence of 11,9 (IC95% 10,1 - 13,7) observed in 1994, using direct standardized rates. In 1994 and 2003, the higher psychotropic consumption was associated with females, age increased, hypertension and health service utilization. In 2003, 74% of the users were using psychotropic drugs over three months. Conclusions: After a decade, the prevalence remains high, but the psychotropic consumption does not increased. The chronic use of psychotropic drugs reached 74%, in 2003. These findings show the importance of the adequate indication of the psychotropic drugs and the follow up of the users by the physician.
