Resumo: Purpose: To evaluate the prevalence of different nutritional status using school in the central region of Curitiba-Pr, comparing the agreement between the Brazilian, North-American and international cutoff points. Methods: Epidemiological study, with 1998 adolescents, 10-16 years of age. Height and body weight were measured. The nutritional status was classified by the Brazilian, North-American and international BMI cutoff points. Kappa index was calculated for agreement. Results: Brazilian reference and North-American resulted in a greater agreement in girls (k=0,96) and boys (k=0,88), similar were found in the comparison between North-American reference and international, in girls (k=0,95) and boys (k=0,93). There was strong agreement, in girls (k=0.96) and boys (k=0.90), between the Brazilian and international reference. The diagnosis of obesity didn’t differ among the three criteria, both genders. These results reinforce that it is possible to compare the prevalence of obesity even in studies that have applied different criteria.

Métodos: Estudo epidemiológico (Curitiba-Pr), em 2004 e 2005. Participaram 1998 adolescentes, entre 10 e 16 anos. Mensuraram-se estatura e peso. Classificou-se o estado nutricional pelo índice de massa corporal por critérios brasileiro, norte-americano e internacional. Analisaram-se as proporções pelo teste Qui-quadrado (pDepartment of Physical Education - State University of Maringá (UEM), Maringá-PR, Brazil2008-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionEstudo Transversalapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/article/view/4709Journal of Physical Education; Vol 19 No 4 (2008); 557-563Journal of Physical Education; Vol. 19 Núm. 4 (2008); 557-563Journal of Physical Education; v. 19 n. 4 (2008); 557-5632448-2455reponame:Journal of Physical Education (Maringá)instname:Universidade Estadual de Maringá (UEM)instacron:UEMporhttps://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/article/view/4709/3787Leite, NeivaMilano, Gerusa EisfeldLopes, Wendell ArthurTanaka, JulianaDressler, Vanessa FreitasRadominski, Rosana Bentoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-01-10T15:37:35Zoai:periodicos.uem.br/ojs:article/4709Revistahttp://periodicos.uem.br/ojs/index.php/RevEducFis/indexPUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.php||revdef@uem.br2448-24552448-2455opendoar:2023-01-10T15:37:35Journal of Physical Education (Maringá) - Universidade Estadual de Maringá (UEM)false
