          Abstract

          Con el objetivo de determinar el comportamiento de la Aptitud Cardiorrespiratoria y la adiposidad frente al nivel de actividad física de la población adulta de la ciudad de Neiva, se evaluaron 972 sujetos entre 18 a 75 años de edad. Estudio Descriptivo Correlacional. Los datos se analizaron en SPSS-23 e InfoStat/Profesional 1,2. La metodología partió de la descripción de variables, posteriormente el grado de asociación entre ellas (coeficiente de correlación de Pearson), los grupos conformados se compararon (Prueba ANOVA y comparación multiple LSD Fisher); por último, se estableció el grado de agrupamiento entre las variables (Prueba Average Linkage). Los resultados evidenciaron diferencias significativas en índice de masa corporal (IMC), Frecuencia Cardiaca Reposo (FCR) y Consumo Máximo de Oxigeno (VO2máx.), entre activos e inactivos; asociación del 5%, entre el IMC con FCR y VO2máx, índice cintura-cadera (ICC) y porcentaje grasa corporal (%GC); del ICC con %GC, VO2máx, Tensión Arterial Sistólica (TAS) y Diastólica (TAD); del %GC con FCR, TAD y VO2máx; la FCR con VO2máx; la TAS con TAD y VO2máx rechazando la hipótesis de independencia. Concluyendo que los indicadores de adiposidad y aptitud cardiorrespiratoria evidencian la combinación de factores de riesgo de enfermedades de índole hipocinético en la población.

          The aim of this study is to determine the behaviour of cardiorespiratory aptitude and adiposity against the physical activity of the adult population in Neiva Colombia. 972 subjects between 18 to 75 years of age were evaluated. This is a descriptive correlational study. Data were analyzed in SPSS-23 and InfoStat / Professional 1,2. The methodology departed from the description of variables, then the degree of association between them (Pearson correlation coefficient), the shaped groups (ANOVA test and LSD multiple comparison Fisher) were compared; and finally, the degree of clustering among the variables (Test Average linkage) was established. The results evidenced meaningful differences in the body mass index (BMI), resting heart rate (RHR) and maximum oxygen consumption (VO2máx.), between active and inactive; 5 % association among the BMI with RHR and VO2máx. Waist Hip Ratio (WHR) and body fat percentage (BF%); of WHR with BF%, VO2máx, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic (DBP); of the BF% with RHR, DBP and VO2máx; the RHR with VO2máx; the SBP with DBP and VO2máx rejecting the independence hypothesis. As a conclusion, adiposity indicators and cardiorespiratory aptitude are a combination of disease risk factors of hypokinetic in the population.

          Appropriate body-mass index for Asian populations and its implications for policy and intervention strategies.

          (2004)
          A WHO expert consultation addressed the debate about interpretation of recommended body-mass index (BMI) cut-off points for determining overweight and obesity in Asian populations, and considered whether population-specific cut-off points for BMI are necessary. They reviewed scientific evidence that suggests that Asian populations have different associations between BMI, percentage of body fat, and health risks than do European populations. The consultation concluded that the proportion of Asian people with a high risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease is substantial at BMIs lower than the existing WHO cut-off point for overweight (> or =25 kg/m2). However, available data do not necessarily indicate a clear BMI cut-off point for all Asians for overweight or obesity. The cut-off point for observed risk varies from 22 kg/m2 to 25 kg/m2 in different Asian populations; for high risk it varies from 26 kg/m2 to 31 kg/m2. No attempt was made, therefore, to redefine cut-off points for each population separately. The consultation also agreed that the WHO BMI cut-off points should be retained as international classifications. The consultation identified further potential public health action points (23.0, 27.5, 32.5, and 37.5 kg/m2) along the continuum of BMI, and proposed methods by which countries could make decisions about the definitions of increased risk for their population.

            Cardiorespiratory fitness and adiposity as mortality predictors in older adults.

            Although levels of physical activity and aerobic capacity decline with age and the prevalence of obesity tends to increase with age, the independent and joint associations among fitness, adiposity, and mortality in older adults have not been adequately examined. To determine the association among cardiorespiratory fitness ("fitness"), adiposity, and mortality in older adults. Cohort of 2603 adults aged 60 years or older (mean age, 64.4 [SD, 4.8] years; 19.8% women) enrolled in the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study who completed a baseline health examination during 1979-2001. Fitness was assessed by a maximal exercise test, and adiposity was assessed by body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and percent body fat. Low fitness was defined as the lowest fifth of the sex-specific distribution of maximal treadmill exercise test duration. The distributions of BMI, waist circumference, and percent body fat were grouped for analysis according to clinical guidelines. All-cause mortality through December 31, 2003. There were 450 deaths during a mean follow-up of 12 years and 31 236 person-years of exposure. Death rates per 1000 person-years, adjusted for age, sex, and examination year were 13.9, 13.3, 18.3, and 31.8 across BMI groups of 18.5-24.9, 25.0-29.9, 30.0-34.9, and > or =35.0, respectively (P = .01 for trend); 13.3 and 18.2 for normal and high waist circumference (> or =88 cm in women; > or =102 cm in men) (P = .004); 13.7 and 14.6 for normal and high percent body fat (> or =30% in women; > or =25% in men) (P = .51); and 32.6, 16.6, 12.8, 12.3, and 8.1 across incremental fifths of fitness (P < .001 for trend). The association between waist circumference and mortality persisted after further adjustment for smoking, baseline health status, and BMI (P = .02) but not after additional adjustment for fitness (P = .86). Fitness predicted mortality risk after further adjustment for smoking, baseline health, and either BMI, waist circumference, or percent body fat (P < .001 for trend). In this study population, fitness was a significant mortality predictor in older adults, independent of overall or abdominal adiposity. Clinicians should consider the importance of preserving functional capacity by recommending regular physical activity for older individuals, normal-weight and overweight alike.
