Resumo: | This study longitudinal investigated food consumption and factors related to weight variation in 81 adult patients with Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) during the COVID-19 pandemic. Sociodemographic, anthropometric, physical activity and food intake data were collected during two periods: before and during the pandemic. For analysis, variations in weight were divided into two categories: weight gain less than or equal to two kilos and weight gain greater than two kilos. Mann Whitey test was used to verify the difference between the medians, while Spearman's correlation coefficient to calculate correlations, Fisher's exact test to assess associations. The significance level adopted in the decision of the tests was 5%. Results showed increases in the consumption of processed and ultra-processed foods among NAFLD patients alongside a reduction in the consumption of natural or minimally processed foods. Both findings were more frequent among patients demonstrating weight gain greater than two kilograms. However, analysis of the nutritional composition of patients’ diets revealed increases in carbohydrate consumption to be the only factor significantly correlated with weight gain. There was a high percentage of individuals who did not practice physical exercise before the pandemic, and this number was exacerbated during home isolation. Thus, it is observed that NAFLD patients have difficulty maintaining a healthy lifestyle and these difficulties have worsened during the pandemic, as reflected by weight gain. Therefore, it is suggested that specialized nutritional assistance be aimed at NAFLD patients seeing as they are at an increased risk for progression to more severe forms of COVID-19. |

Datos sociodemográficos, antropométricos, de actividad física y consumo alimentario fueron recogidos durante dos períodos: antes y durante la pandemia. Para el análisis, las variaciones de peso se dividieron en dos categorías: aumento de peso menor o igual a dos kilos y aumento de peso mayor que dos kilos. La prueba de Mann Whitey fue utilizada para verificar la diferencia entre las medianas, el coeficiente de correlación de Spearman para calcular correlaciones y prueba exacta de Fisher para evaluar asociaciones. El nivel de significancia adoptado en la decisión de las pruebas fue del 5%. Los resultados mostraron aumento en el consumo de alimentos procesados y ultraprocesados entre pacientes con EHGNA, junto con la reducción en el consumo de alimentos naturales o mínimamente procesados. Ambos hallazgos fueron más frecuentes entre pacientes que presentaron aumento de peso superior a dos kilogramos. Sin embargo, el análisis de la composición nutricional de las dietas de los pacientes reveló aumentos en el consumo de carbohidratos como el único factor significativamente correlacionado con el aumento de peso. Hubo un alto porcentaje de individuos que no practicaron ejercicio físico antes de la pandemia, y ese número fue exacerbado durante el aislamiento domiciliario. Por lo tanto, se observa que los pacientes con EHGNA tienen dificultades para mantener un estilo de vida saludable y estas dificultades empeoraron durante la pandemia, lo que refleja el aumento de peso. Por lo tanto, se sugiere que la asistencia nutricional especializada se dirija a los pacientes con EHGNA, ya que tienen un mayor riesgo de progresión hacia formas más graves de COVID-19.Este estudo longitudinal investigou o consumo alimentar longitudinal e fatores relacionados à variação de peso em 81 pacientes adultos com Doença Hepática Gordurosa Não Alcoólica (DHGNA) durante a pandemia COVID-19. Dados sociodemográficos, antropométricos, de atividade física e consumo alimentar foram coletados durante dois períodos: antes e durante a pandemia. Para análise, as variações de peso foram divididas em duas categorias: ganho de peso menor ou igual a dois quilos e ganho de peso maior que dois quilos. O teste de Mann Whitey foi utilizado para verificar a diferença entre as medianas, o coeficiente de correlação de Spearman para calcular correlações e teste exato de Fisher para avaliar associações. O nível de significância adotado na decisão dos testes foi de 5%. Os resultados mostraram aumento no consumo de alimentos processados e ultraprocessados entre pacientes com DHGNA, junto com a redução no consumo de alimentos naturais ou minimamente processados. Ambos os achados foram mais frequentes entre pacientes que apresentaram ganho de peso superior a dois quilogramas. No entanto, a análise da composição nutricional das dietas dos pacientes revelou aumentos no consumo de carboidratos como o único fator significativamente correlacionado com o ganho de peso. Houve um alto percentual de indivíduos que não praticaram exercício físico antes da pandemia, e esse número foi exacerbado durante o isolamento domiciliar. Assim, observa-se que os pacientes com DHGNA têm dificuldade em manter um estilo de vida saudável e essas dificuldades pioraram durante a pandemia, refletindo no ganho de peso. Portanto, sugere-se que a assistência nutricional especializada seja direcionada aos pacientes com DHGNA, uma vez que eles têm um risco aumentado de progressão para formas mais graves de COVID-19.Research, Society and Development2021-12-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2426110.33448/rsd-v10i16.24261Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 16; e573101624261Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 16; e573101624261Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 16; e5731016242612525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/24261/21239Copyright (c) 2021 Laís Spíndola Garcêz; Carla de Magalhães Cunha ; André Castro Lyra; Rosangela Passos de Jesus; Lucivalda Pereira Magalhães de Oliveira https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSpíndola Garcêz, LaísCunha , Carla de Magalhães Lyra, André Castro Jesus, Rosangela Passos de Oliveira , Lucivalda Pereira Magalhães de 2021-12-20T11:03:07Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/24261Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:42:52.818536Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
