Resumo: This article discloses and discusses recent findings that have associated stunting - which still represents the most prevalent deviation from normal body measurements among children living in developing countries - with overweight and higher adiposity, mainly in the central region of the body, and their clinical and physio-pathological consequences. Although there is need for further studies to clarify these associations, there is a tendency for the weight/height index and body fat topography to behave differently in short and normal stature individuals, mainly in females. This review, therefore, alerts health professionals this characteristic, given that this anthropometric profile may be linked to the widespread occurrence of chronic non-communicable diseases and/or to risk factors for these conditions and that stunting is still a reality in developing countries.

Apesar da necessidade de mais estudos para esclarecer essas associações, há uma tendência para comportamentos diferentes dos índices de peso relativo à estatura e da topografia da gordura corporal nos indivíduos de baixa estatura e de estatura normal, fato observado especialmente naqueles do sexo feminino. Assim, esta revisão alerta os profissionais de saúde para estarem atentos a tal característica, considerando-se que o perfil antropométrico especificado pode estar ligado a maior ocorrência de doenças crônicas não-transmissíveis e/ou a seus fatores de risco, e que o deficit estatural ainda é uma realidade nos países em desenvolvimento.Universidade Federal de Alfenas Departamento de NutriçãoUniversidade Federal de Viçosa Departamento de Nutrição e SaúdeUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) Escola Paulista de Medicina Centro de Atendimento e Apoio ao AdolescenteUNIFESP, EPM, Centro de Atendimento e Apoio ao AdolescenteSciELOCoordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES)Instituto de Medicina Integral Prof. Fernando FigueiraUniversidade Federal de Alfenas Departamento de NutriçãoUniversidade Federal de Viçosa Departamento de Nutrição e SaúdeUniversidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Vieira, Valéria Cristina RibeiroFransceschini, Sylvia do Carmo CastroFisberg, Mauro [UNIFESP]Priore, Silvia Eloiza [UNIFESP]2015-06-14T13:37:17Z2015-06-14T13:37:17Z2007-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion365-372application/pdfhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1519-38292007000400003Revista Brasileira de Saúde Materno Infantil .
