Resumo: Cardiovascular risks are now an epidemiological reality among adults and teenagers. This scenario leads to impairments in quality of life and represents a burden in healthcare and government costs. This study aimed to evaluate the association between risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, quality of life, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and anthropometric parameters on university students in Fortaleza/CE, Brazil. It was a descriptive, crossectional, correlational study, made through epidemiological assessment in young university students, with primary data and quantitative analysis. The results showed a negative influence of daytime sleepiness and fatigue on the overall quality of life. Functional capacity, a component of the quality of life, which represents the ability to perform tasks and activities in their life, and limitations due to emotional aspects could impact a person's well-being and health. Moreover, excessive daytime sleepiness showed a strong correlation with almost all domains of quality of life. It was found that although volunteers did not show a low quality of life, fatigue levels and sleepiness presented as relevant variables. There is a need to comprehend and control these variables to promote students' health and, consequently, to live healthier adulthood.

O estudo objetiva avaliar a associação entre fatores de risco cardiovascular, qualidade de vida, sonolência diurna, fadiga e indicadores antropométri­cos em uma amostra de universitários da cidade de Fortaleza/CE, Brasil. Decorre de um estudo descritivo transversal correlacional, a partir de levantamento epidemiológico em universitários, com dados primários e modelo de análise quantitativo. Os resultados apontam a influência deletéria da sonolência diurna e a fadiga na qualidade de vida. A capacidade funcional, componente do índice de qualidade de vida, e as limitações por aspectos emocionais, podem afetar a saúde e bem-estar geral. Além disso, a sonolência excessiva diurna apontou uma forte associação com quase todos os subitens da qualidade de vida. Constatou-se que, apesar de os voluntários não apresentarem uma má qualidade de vida, os níveis de fadiga e sonolência se mostraram relevantes no estudo. Compreende-se que há a necessidade de compreender e controlar essas variáveis a fim de promover uma melhora na saúde dos universitários e, consequentemente, apresentarem uma vida adulta mais saudável.Edições Sílabas Didáticas2020-12-31T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.6063/motricidade.18747eng2182-29721646-107XAndrade, Rosane de AlmeidaRodrigues, Bruna AraujoDaniele, Thiago Medeiros da CostaVieira, Lucas LimaFortuna de Sousa, Nelson Joaquiminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-05T14:54:46Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/18747Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:30:09.211974Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
