RESUMO

Coffee has been associated with reductions in the risk of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCCD), including diabetes mellitus. Because differences in food habits are recognizable modifying factors in the epidemiology of diabetes, we studied the association of coffee consumption with type-2 diabetes in a sample of the adult population of the Federal District, Brazil. This cross-sectional study was conducted by telephone interview (n = 1,440). A multivariate analysis was run controlling for socio-behavioural variables, obesity and family antecedents of NCCD. A hierarchical linear regression model and a Poisson regression were used to verify association of type-2 diabetes and coffee intake. The independent variables which remained in the final model, following the hierarchical inclusion levels, were: first level-age and marital status; second level-diabetes and dyslipidaemias in antecedents; third level-cigarette smoking, supplement intake, body mass index; and fourth level-coffee intake (≤100 mL/d, 101 to 400 mL/day, and >400 mL/day). After adjusting hierarchically for the confounding variables, consumers of 100 to 400 mL of coffee/day had a 2.7% higher (p = 0.04) prevalence of not having diabetes than those who drank less than 100 mL of coffee/day. Compared to coffee intake of ≤100 mL/day, adults consuming >400 mL of coffee/day showed no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of diabetes. Thus, moderate coffee intake is favourably associated with self-reported type-2 diabetes in the studied population. This is the first study to show a relationship between coffee drinking and diabetes in a Brazilian population.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate factors associated with overweight and abdominal obesity in male and female workers. METHODS: This is a cross-sectional population-based study. A representative sample of 1,054 workers ranging from 18 to 74 years of age, selected among individuals covered by the Workers´ Food Program living in the Metropolitan region of Belém, Northern Brazil. Health-related behavior and anthropometry were assessed. Fasting blood samples were collected. RESULTS: Overweight prevalence was 38.0% among women and 50.4% among men. Among overweight subjects, there were 6.1% obese women and 10.7% obese men. Multivariate analysis was used to identify social behavior and clinical-biochemical factors associated with increased body adiposity (BMI > 25 kg/m² and increased waist circumference: > 80 cm for women and > 94 cm for men). Variables positively and significantly associated with overweight and abdominal obesity in men according to prevalence ratio (PR) values were: age (1.02), high family income (1.05), smoking (1.36), hypertension (systolic blood pressure, 1.41; diastolic blood pressure, 1.85) and hypertriglyceridemia (2.29). In women, the PR of increased body adiposity was associated with: age (1.02), alcohol intake (1.42), hypertriglyceridemia (1.44), diastolic blood pressure (1.65) and hyperglycemia (1.71). CONCLUSIONS: The association of overweight and abdominal obesity with social behavior variables should be corrected with preventive and educational measures. Furthermore, association of overweight and abdominal obesity with clinical and biochemical variables places the urban workers from the Amazon region assisted by the Workers´ Food Program at a possible risk for morbidity and mortality from increased body adiposity.

OBJETIVO: Investigar os fatores associados ao sobrepeso e a obesidade abdominal em trabalhadores de ambos os sexos. MÉTODO: Estudo transversal de base populacional, de uma amostra representativa de 1054 trabalhadores, com idade entre 18 e 74 anos, assistidos pelo Programa de Alimentação do Trabalhador na região metropolitana de Belém do Pará, na região norte do Brasil. Parâmetros relacionados à saúde e medidas antropométricas foram obtidas e amostra de sangue foram coletadas. RESULTADOS: A prevalência de sobrepeso foi de 38 por cento nas mulheres e 50,4 por cento nos homens. Dentre os indivíduos com sobrepeso, 6,1 por cento das mulheres eram obesas e 10,7 por cento dos homens tinham obesidade. Análise multivariada foi utilizada para identificar os fatores sociocomportamentais e clínico-bioquímicos associados com o aumento da adiposidade corporal (IMC > 25kg/m2 e circunferência de cintura > 80cm para mulheres e >94cm para homens). As variáveis e a razão de prevalência (PR) associadas ao sobrepeso e adiposidade abdominal nos homens foram: idade (1,02), renda familiar alta (1,05), fumo (1,36), hipertensão (pressão arterial sistólica 1,41 e pressão arterial diastólica 1,85) e hipertrigliceridemia (2,29). Nas mulheres as razões de chance para sobrepeso e adiposidade abdominal foram: idade (1,02), consumo de álcool (1,42), hipertrigliceridemia (1,44), pressão arterial diastólilca (1,65) e hiperglicemia (1,71). CONCLUSÃO: A associação do sobrepeso e obesidade abdominal com parâmetros sociocomportamentais devem ser corrigidos com medidas educativas e preventivas. Além disso, a associação de sobrepeso e obesidade abdominal com parâmetros clínicos e bioquímicos coloca os trabalhadores de Belém do Pará, assistidos pelo Programa de Alimentação do Trabalhador, em possível risco de morbidades e mortalidade precoce pelo aumento de adiposidade corporal.
