Resumo: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of different body mass index (BMI) ranges associated with the risk of diabetes and hypertension in Japanese-Brazilians. This cross-sectional study was based on data from 1,330 Japanese-Brazilians > 30 years of age who participated in a population-based survey on the prevalence of diabetes mellitus and associated diseases. Glucose tolerance status was classified according to WHO criteria and blood pressure levels according to the VI-JNC. Odds ratios for diabetes and hypertension were calculated for different BMI ranges; for different BMIs, sensitivity and specificity for percentiles 25, 50, 75, 90 and 95 were obtained. Increased odds ratios for diabetes mellitus and hypertension were observed with BMI values > 25kg/m². The 50th percentile corresponded to the highest sensitivity and specificity for the identification of risk for both diseases. Our results suggest that BMI values proposed by WHO should also be useful for this group of Japanese descendants in the assessment of risk for DM and hypertension.

Este estudo transversal foi realizado com 1.330 nipo-brasileiros > 30 anos, participantes de pesquisa populacional sobre prevalência de diabetes mellitus e doenças associadas. Para classificação da tolerância à glicose utilizou-se o critério da OMS e dos níveis pressóricos o do JNC-VI. Para diferentes faixas de IMC foram estimados os odds ratios para diabetes e hipertensão e obtidos os valores de sensibilidade e especificidade referentes aos percentis 25, 50, 75, 90 e 95. Observou-se que o aumento dos valores de odds ratio para o diabetes e hipertensão foi a partir do IMC > 25kg/m², sendo que o percentil 50 apresentou os melhores valores de sensibilidade e especificidade para ambas as doenças. Apesar dos nipo-brasileiros apresentarem estrutura corporal diferente dos caucasianos, os resultados sugerem que os valores de IMC preconizados pela OMS podem ser aplicáveis também a este grupo de descendentes japoneses em estudos de associação de diabetes e hipertensão.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2007-02-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3131Reports in Public Health; Vol. 23 No. 2 (2007): FebruaryCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 23 n. 2 (2007): Fevereiro1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3131/6320https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/3131/6321Simony, Rosana FarahGimeno, Suely Godoy AgostinhoFerreira, Sandra Roberta GouveiaFranco, Laércio Joelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:27:26Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/3131Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:03:38.612402Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
