Material and methods: descriptive, retrospective and cross-sectional study. Weight, size, and (bmi) body mass index were registered; as well as biochemical values of total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; triglycerides; glycemia and insulin. Biochemical parameters were related to the bmi considering that it was significant if the p-value was <0.05. Results: 1 520 children were controlled, of which 15.5% registered a higher weight for their age; 23.8% of these registered overweight; 43.8% obesity and intense obesity 32.4%. The result of blood glucose was found altered in nine children, 12 in insulin, 14 in total cholesterol, 11 in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, 38 in cholesterol in high density lipoprotein, and triglycerides in 30 children. A significant association was presented between bmi with high density lipoprotein cholesterol and lipoprotein cholesterol low density (p=0.0352 and 0.0483). Blood pressure values presented alterations in six cases, which had been registered a direct family history of hypertension before the age of 55. Conclusions: Overweight and childhood obesity are a public health problem that involves the risk of producing in adult life, diseases of high health risk and high social cost.Objetivo: identificar sobrepeso y obesidad en niños de 5 a 12 años, que acudieron al control de salud en un centro comunitario de la ciudad de Rosario, Argentina, durante 2013. Material y métodos: estudio descriptivo, de corte transversal y retrospectivo. Se registraron, peso, talla e índice de masa corporal (imc); así como valores bioquímicos de colesterol total, colesterol de lipoproteínas de alta densidad y de baja densidad; triglicéridos; glucemia e insulina. Se relacionaron los parámetros bioquímicos con el imc, considerándose significativo cuando el valor de p fuera <0.05. Resultados: fueron controlados 1 520 niños, de los cuales 15.5% registró un peso superior para su edad; de estos, 23.8% registró sobrepeso; obesidad 43.8% y obesidad intensa 32.4%. El resultado de glucemia se encontró alterado en nueve niños, de insulina en 12, colesterol total en 14, colesterol de lipoproteínas de baja densidad en 11, colesterol de lipoproteínas de alta densidad en 38 y triglicéridos en 30 niños. Se presentó asociación significativa entre imc con colesterol de lipoproteínas de alta densidad y colesterol de lipoproteínas baja densidad (p = 0,0352 y 0,0483). Los valores de tensión arterial se presentaron alterados en seis casos, los cuales habían registrado antecedentes familiares directos de hipertensión antes de los 55 años de edad. Conclusiones: El sobrepeso y la obesidad infantil conforman un problema de salud pública el cual implica el riesgo de producir en la vida adulta, enfermedades de alto riesgo sanitario y elevado costo social.Facultad de Medicina2015-03-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistas.unam.mx/index.php/atencion_familiar/article/view/4796010.22201/facmed.14058871p.2014.4.47960Atención Familiar; Vol. 21 Núm. 42992-782X10.22201/facmed.14058871p.2014.4reponame:Atención Familiarinstname:UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AUTÓNOMA DE MÉXICOinstacron:UNAMspahttps://www.revistas.unam.mx/index.php/atencion_familiar/article/view/47960/43083info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/479602024-08-16T16:51:44Z
