Resumo: Objective: To analyze the lipid profile and blood pressure levels of low-income community residents from the boundaries of Manaus. Methods: A cross-sectional study, held in the period of January to March, 2006. The studied population consisted of residents from a low income community located at Parque das Nações, South-Center zone of Manaus - Amazonas. The sample consisted of individuals aged 18 years or above who did not take anti-hypertensive medication. The visited residences were randomly sorted. Two hundred and twenty four blood samples were collected from individuals with 12 hours of fasting and blood pressure checked-out. An automated method with commercial kits was used for cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL dosages. The formula of Friedewald was applied for determining the levels of VLDL and LDL. Results: The increase in cholesterol levels was evident in 17.6% males and 21.8% females. Regarding triglycerides, an increase in serum levels was observed in 33.8% of men and 26.9% of women. As for HDL-cholesterol, inadequate levels were verified in 67.9% males and 22.1% females. Already LDL-cholesterol dosages showed values outside desired concentrations in 38.5% males and 35.3% females. Concerning blood pressure, high levels of isolated diastolic hypertension were found among females. Conclusion: Based on observed results, we evidenced the presence of risk factors related to cardiovascular disease in this low-income community.

Métodos: Estudo transversal, realizado no período de janeiro a março de 2006. A população pesquisada constituiu-se de moradores de baixa renda da comunidade localizada no Parque das Nações, Zona centro-sul de Manaus-Amazonas. A amostra constituiu-se de indivíduos com idade igual ou superior a 18 anos que não utilizavam medicamentos anti-hipertensivos. As residências visitadas foram aleatoriamente selecionadas por sorteio simples. Foram coletadas 224 amostras de sangue, estando os indivíduos em jejum de 12 horas e pressão arterial aferida. Método automatizado com kits comerciais foi utilizado para as dosagens de colesterol, triglicerídeos e HDL. Para a determinação dos níveis de VLDL e LDL, utilizou-se a fórmula de Friedwald. Resultados: Verificou-se elevação dos níveis de colesterol total em 17,6% do gênero masculino e 21,8% do gênero feminino. Quanto às triglicérides, verificou-se elevação dos níveis séricos em 33,8% dos homens e 26,9% das mulheres. Para o HDL-colesterol, verificaram-se níveis inadequados em 67,9% dos homens e 22,1% das mulheres. Já as dosagens de LDL-colesterol revelaram valores fora das concentrações desejadas em 38,5% das mulheres e 35,3% dos homens. Quanto à pressão arterial, níveis altos de hipertensão diastólica isolada foram encontrados nas mulheres. Conclusões: Com base nos resultados observados, verificou-se a existência de fatores de risco relacionados à doença cardiovascular nessa comunidade de baixa rendaUniversidade de Fortaleza2012-01-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/34910.5020/349Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 22 No. 2 (2009); 74-80Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 22 Núm. 2 (2009); 74-80Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 22 n. 2 (2009); 74-801806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/349/2254Ferreira, Cristina MotaOliveira, Cecília Leite Motta deCicalise, FábioFerreira, William AntunesFernandes, Francielly AVasquez, Felicien GonçalvesGalgani, LauraNaveca, Felipe GomesMorais, Inês Motta deRamos, Fabiana do AmaralBarbosa, Maria das Graças Valeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-10T12:19:46Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/349Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-10T12:19:46Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false
