          Abstract

          Resumen Introducción: El tratamiento de la obesidad debería iniciarse dentro de la etapa escolar, centrándose en diferentes áreas de actuación, como la Educación Física. El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer el estado nutricional y el nivel de condición física en alumnos y alumnas de un centro escolar, así como la relación entre estos y la frecuencia de práctica de actividad física. Material y Métodos: Se evaluaron 168 alumnos y alumnas entre 6-12 años del colegio concertado Azalea de Beniel (Murcia). Se registraron peso y talla (para obtener datos sobre estado nutricional), hábitos de alimentación durante el almuerzo, frecuencia de práctica de actividad física y consumo máximo de oxígeno mediante Course Navette. Se realizaron estadísticos descriptivos, comparación de medias entre los diferentes estados nutricionales y correlaciones entre estado nutricional, consumo máximo de oxígeno y frecuencia de práctica deportiva. Resultados: Un gran número de alumnos muestran sobrepeso u obesidad. La frecuencia de práctica de actividad física registrada está por debajo de las recomendaciones de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS). Se muestran correlaciones significativas entre la frecuencia de práctica de actividad física y la disminución del índice de masa corporal, así como entre el consumo máximo de oxígeno y un mayor índice de masa corporal. Conclusiones: Una cuarta parte del alumnado presenta sobrepeso u obesidad. Persiste el consumo de productos de bollería industrial en el almuerzo. La práctica deportiva del alumnado está por debajo de las recomendaciones de la OMS.

          Abstract Introduction: The adverse effects of obesity can be reversed with a good campaign to prevent obesity. This treatment should begin within the school years, focusing on different areas of activity, especially Physical Education. The aim of this study was to determine the nutritional status and level of physical fitness in students from a school, and the relationship between them and the frequency of physical activity. Material and Methods: It was conducted in a population of 168 students between 6-12 years old in concerted Azalea Beniel School. Weight and height were recorded (for data on nutritional status), eating habits during brunch, frequency of physical activity and maximum oxygen consumption by multistage shuttle run test. We performed descriptive statistics, comparison of means, and correlations between nutritional status, maximum oxygen consumption and frequency of physical activity practice. Results: A large number of students show nutritional status overweight or obese. The frequency of physical activity recorded is below the recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO). Significant correlations between the frequency of physical activity and decreased body mass index are shown, as well as between the maximum oxygen consumption and increased body mass index. Conclusions: A quarter of the students are overweight or obese. The consumption of industrial bakery products continues at lunch. The sports practice of the students is below the recommendations of the WHO.

          Trends in adult body-mass index in 200 countries from 1975 to 2014: a pooled analysis of 1698 population-based measurement studies with 19·2 million participants

          Summary Background Underweight and severe and morbid obesity are associated with highly elevated risks of adverse health outcomes. We estimated trends in mean body-mass index (BMI), which characterises its population distribution, and in the prevalences of a complete set of BMI categories for adults in all countries. Methods We analysed, with use of a consistent protocol, population-based studies that had measured height and weight in adults aged 18 years and older. We applied a Bayesian hierarchical model to these data to estimate trends from 1975 to 2014 in mean BMI and in the prevalences of BMI categories (<18·5 kg/m2 [underweight], 18·5 kg/m2 to <20 kg/m2, 20 kg/m2 to <25 kg/m2, 25 kg/m2 to <30 kg/m2, 30 kg/m2 to <35 kg/m2, 35 kg/m2 to <40 kg/m2, ≥40 kg/m2 [morbid obesity]), by sex in 200 countries and territories, organised in 21 regions. We calculated the posterior probability of meeting the target of halting by 2025 the rise in obesity at its 2010 levels, if post-2000 trends continue. Findings We used 1698 population-based data sources, with more than 19·2 million adult participants (9·9 million men and 9·3 million women) in 186 of 200 countries for which estimates were made. Global age-standardised mean BMI increased from 21·7 kg/m2 (95% credible interval 21·3–22·1) in 1975 to 24·2 kg/m2 (24·0–24·4) in 2014 in men, and from 22·1 kg/m2 (21·7–22·5) in 1975 to 24·4 kg/m2 (24·2–24·6) in 2014 in women. Regional mean BMIs in 2014 for men ranged from 21·4 kg/m2 in central Africa and south Asia to 29·2 kg/m2 (28·6–29·8) in Polynesia and Micronesia; for women the range was from 21·8 kg/m2 (21·4–22·3) in south Asia to 32·2 kg/m2 (31·5–32·8) in Polynesia and Micronesia. Over these four decades, age-standardised global prevalence of underweight decreased from 13·8% (10·5–17·4) to 8·8% (7·4–10·3) in men and from 14·6% (11·6–17·9) to 9·7% (8·3–11·1) in women. South Asia had the highest prevalence of underweight in 2014, 23·4% (17·8–29·2) in men and 24·0% (18·9–29·3) in women. Age-standardised prevalence of obesity increased from 3·2% (2·4–4·1) in 1975 to 10·8% (9·7–12·0) in 2014 in men, and from 6·4% (5·1–7·8) to 14·9% (13·6–16·1) in women. 2·3% (2·0–2·7) of the world’s men and 5·0% (4·4–5·6) of women were severely obese (ie, have BMI ≥35 kg/m2). Globally, prevalence of morbid obesity was 0·64% (0·46–0·86) in men and 1·6% (1·3–1·9) in women. Interpretation If post-2000 trends continue, the probability of meeting the global obesity target is virtually zero. Rather, if these trends continue, by 2025, global obesity prevalence will reach 18% in men and surpass 21% in women; severe obesity will surpass 6% in men and 9% in women. Nonetheless, underweight remains prevalent in the world’s poorest regions, especially in south Asia. Funding Wellcome Trust, Grand Challenges Canada.

            The Mediterranean Diet and Nutritional Adequacy: A Review

            The Mediterranean dietary pattern, through a healthy profile of fat intake, low proportion of carbohydrate, low glycemic index, high content of dietary fiber, antioxidant compounds, and anti-inflammatory effects, reduces the risk of certain pathologies, such as cancer or Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). Nutritional adequacy is the comparison between the nutrient requirement and the intake of a certain individual or population. In population groups, the prevalence of nutrient inadequacy can be assessed by the probability approach or using the Estimated Average Requirement (EAR) cut-point method. However, dietary patterns can also be used as they have moderate to good validity to assess adequate intakes of some nutrients. The objective of this study was to review the available evidence on the Nutritional Adequacy of the Mediterranean Diet. The inclusion of foods typical of the Mediterranean diet and greater adherence to this healthy pattern was related to a better nutrient profile, both in children and adults, with a lower prevalence of individuals showing inadequate intakes of micronutrients. Therefore, the Mediterranean diet could be used in public health nutrition policies in order to prevent micronutrient deficiencies in the most vulnerable population groups.

              Hábitos alimentarios de niños en edad escolar y el papel de la educación para la salud

              Se realizó una revisión teórica acerca del papel de la familia, los anuncios publicitarios y la escuela, en la adopción, o bien modificación de los hábitos alimentarios de los niños. Debido a que las nuevas dinámicas familiares y la gran exposición de los niños a los comerciales alimentarios han modificado los patrones de consumo de los niños originando con ello el aumento de la obesidad infantil, motivo por el que se enfatiza la importancia de la educación para la salud como herramienta preventiva y promocional en el cambio de conductas relacionadas con la adopción de hábitos alimentarios saludables, destacando el desarrollo de programas nutricionales aplicados en escuelas con el objetivo de buscar el trabajo conjunto entre los padres de familia y los profesores, para lograr modificar conductas no saludables y lograr estilos de vida saludables.
