Resumo: Although several authors claim that the measure of the waist circumference (WC) is a more reliable cardiovascular risk factor index compared to body mass index (BMI) and other adiposity indicators, these results are not yet conclusive in exclusively pediatric population. The objective of this study was to compare the WC and BMI with risk factors for cardiovascular diseases in adolescents. The sample was composed by 108 boys and 133 girls (12 to 16 years). The WC and BMI were measured following usual anthropometric procedures. The risk factors for cardiovascular disease analyzed were blood pressure, total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C and triglycerides. For statistical analyses we used descriptive statistics, chi-square tests and logistic regression, p < 0.05. On the BMI, the girls with increased values showed a higher odds ratio of showing undesirable blood pressure levels (OR: 4.29; CI95%:1.66-14.58). For WC, the girls with increased values showed greater odds ratio of presenting high blood pressure (OR:4.12; CI95%:1.27-13.35) and undesirable total cholesterol (OR: 3.6; CI95%:1.1-11.76). However the few relationships found, especially for boys, these anthropometric indicators can be useful for the identification and selection of individuals with increased values, enabling a intervention to the incorporation of healthy dietary habits and physical activity, especially in young individuals.

O Objetivo do presente estudo foi relacionar a CC e IMC com os fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares em adolescentes. A amostra foi composta por 108 rapazes e 133 moças (12 a 16 anos). A CC e o IMC foram mensurados seguindo procedimentos antropométricos usuais. Os fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares analisados foram a pressão arterial, colesterol total, LDL-c, HDL-c e triglicérides. Para as análises estatísticas, utilizaram-se estatística descritiva, testes de qui-quadrado e regressão logística, com p < 0,05. Os resultados sugerem que as moças com valores aumentados de IMC, apresentaram maior razão de chances de ter níveis indesejáveis de pressão arterial (OR:4,29; IC95%:1,66-14,58). Em relação à CC, as moças com valores aumentados apresentaram maior razão de chances de apresentar pressão arterial elevada (OR:4,12;IC95%:1,27-13,35) e colesterol total indesejável (OR:3,6;IC95%:1,1-11,76). Apesar das poucas relações encontradas, principalmente para os rapazes, estes indicadores antropométricos podem ser úteis para a identificação e triagem de indivíduos com valores aumentados, possibilitando uma intervenção no sentido de incorporação de hábitos alimentares e de atividade física saudáveis, principalmente, em indivíduos jovens.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
