Resumo: Objective To estimate the prevalence of anemia and associated factors in adolescents from the city of Recife in Pernambuco state. Methods This is a cross-sectional study, involving a random sample of 256 adolescents of both genders, aged 13 to 18, whose hemoglobin concentrations were evaluated, along with their nutritional status and socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. Results The prevalence of inadequate hemoglobin concentrations was 10.2% [CI95%=6.7-14.5], reaching levels considered as mild anemia (9 g/dL 0.05), nor with socioeconomic or demographic characteristics (p>0.05). ConclusionAlthough the prevalence of anemia was low and classified as a mild health problem, preventive nutrition education involving the dissemination of healthy eating habits in schools and encouraging the consumption of iron-rich foods are strongly recommended.

Métodos Estudo de corte transversal, envolvendo uma amostra aleatória de 256 adolescentes, de 13 a 18 anos, de ambos os sexos. Foram avaliadas as concentrações de hemoglobina, o estado nutricional e as características socioeconômicas e demográficas. Resultados A prevalência de concentrações inadequadas de hemoglobina foi de 10,2% [IC95%=6,7-14,5], situando-se em patamares que configuram a anemia do tipo leve (9 g/dL 0,05) e características socioeconômicas e demográficas (p>0,05). Conclusão Embora a prevalência de anemia tenha sido discreta e classificada em grau leve, recomenda-se a adoção de medidas preventivas de educação nutricional, com a difusão da alimentação saudável nas escolas e o incentivo ao consumo de alimentos que sejam fonte de ferro.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-04-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/8344Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 27 No. 5 (2014): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 27 Núm. 5 (2014): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 27 n. 5 (2014): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPenghttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/8344/5866Copyright (c) 2023 Elisângela Barros Soares MENDONÇA, Lilian Ferreira MUNIZ, Ilma Kruze Grande de ARRUDA, Alcides da Silva DINIZhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBarros Soares MENDONÇA, Elisângela Ferreira MUNIZ, Lilian Grande de ARRUDA, Ilma Kruze da Silva DINIZ, Alcides 2023-04-14T18:40:28Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8344Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-04-14T18:40:28Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
