worldwide, prevalence of type 2 diabetes has doubled in the last years, mainly due to unhealthy lifestyle behaviours. They are many risk factors associated with diabetes, however, which Chilean population remains unknown. Therefore, aim was determine what development Chile.four thousand and seven hundred participants from cross-sectional 2009-2010 National Health Survey were included this study (4,162 normal; 538 diabetics). Risk assessed socio-demographic, anthropometric, lifestyle,...
Physical inactivity is an important cardiovascular risk factor.To investigate the association of physical with obesity, metabolic markers, type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension and syndrome in Chilean adults.Participants from National Health Survey 2009-10 (n = 5,157) were included this study. Body mass index, waist circumference, markers (blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin lipid profile) outcomes. Type diabetes, determined using international criteria. activity levels Global Activity...
There is limited evidence on how active commuting associated with health benefits in developing countries. The aim of this study therefore was to investigate the associations between and markers adiposity cardiometabolic risk Chilean adult population.In total, 5157 participants from National Health Survey 2009-10 were included cross-sectional study. Active measured using Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ v2). Body mass index (BMI) waist circumference (WC) used define obesity...
To investigate the associations between combined categories of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behaviour (SB) with markers adiposity cardiovascular risk in adults.Overall, 5040 participants (mean age 46.4 years 59.3% women) from cross-sectional Chilean National Health Survey 2009-2010 were included this study. MVPA SB measured using Global Physical Activity questionnaire. Four computed MVPA- SB-specific cut-offs ('High-SB & Active', 'Low-SB 'High-SB Inactive'...
Background: Chile has one of the highest obesity rates in Latin America. However, factors that could explain this high prevalence are unknown.
Background: High blood pressure is one of the major risk factors for development cardiovascular disease, affecting 27% Chilean population in 2010.
Material and Methods: Active commuting was measured using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ v2) in 5,293 participants from Chilean National Health Survey 2009-2010. Body mass index (BMI) waist circumference (WC) were study outcomes. The association between active obesity investigated linear logistic regression analysis.
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between physical activity (PA), both occupational (OPA) and during leisure time (LTPA), with obesity cardiovascular risk factors in Chilean adults. 5,157 participants from National Health Survey 2009-2010 were included study. OPA LTPA levels assessed using Global Physical Activity Questionnaire. PA determined logistic regression. Our findings showed a significant trend higher lower odds for (OR 0.64 [95% CI: 0.53; 0.76], central 0.52...
Sitting behaviours have increased markedly during the last two decades in Chile. However, their associations with health outcomes such as diabetes not been reported. Therefore, aim of this study was to investigate independent association self-reported sitting time diabetes-related markers and prevalence Chile.This cross-sectional included participants (aged ≥18 years) from Chilean National Health Survey 2009-10 (n = 4457). Fasting glucose haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were measured by standardized...
Although both obesity and ageing are risk factors for cognitive impairment, there is no evidence in Chile on how levels associated with function. Therefore, the aim of present study was to investigate association between adiposity impairment older Chilean adults. This cross-sectional includes 1384 participants, over 60 years age, from National Health Survey 2009-2010. Cognitive evaluated using Mini-Mental State Examination. BMI waist circumference (WC) were used as measures adiposity....
La obesidad es una enfermedad inflamatoria, crónica, recurrente, progresiva y de etiología multifactorial, que afecta a más 650 millones personas en el mundo. carga física, emocional económica genera la no solo guarda relación con sus manifestaciones clínicas, sino también por su impacto nivel sistémico largo plazo. En Chile, crecimiento económico, urbanización globalización han modificado profundamente modo vivir población lo ha favorecido un ambiente obesogénico. Sin embargo, ¿qué factores...

Background: international physical activity (PA) guidelines recommend 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous PA or 75 weekly; however, the proportion Chilean population who meet this recommendation across lifespan remains unknown. Objective: characterize patterns by age categories and sex in population. Methods: participants from Health Survey 2009-2010 (5,293 individuals) were included study. types (transport, vigorous) sedentary behavior measured using global questionnaire (GPAQ). Time spent...
Background: Healthy lifestyles are associated with a better metabolic and cardiovascular health profile.
Inverse association of cardiorespiratory fitness with cardiovascular risk factors in Chilean adults
A pesar de que la actividad física (AF) es un factor protector contra las enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles, gran porcentaje población cumple los niveles mínimos recomendados. El objetivo fue investigar como varían práctica AF entre diferentes grupos etarios en chilena. Se incluyeron 5.133 participantes Encuesta Nacional Salud 2009-2010. La determinada utilizando el cuestionario GPAQ. inactividad definida <600 MET/min/semana moderada a vigorosa. asociación y edad investigada por sexo...
Lifestyle factors could promote healthy ageing.To investigate the association between physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior and cognitive impairment in Chilean older adults.We included 1,390 participants from National Health Survey (2009-2010). The Mini-Mental State Examination was used to diagnose impairment. Physical were assessed with Global Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ). Logistic regression performed associations.Compared adults lower levels of PA (< 48 min/day), those middle...
Background: It is unknown if nutritional status could influence the accuracy of self-reported physical activity (PA) levels.
Walking pace is a well-known indicator of physical capability, but it also strong predictor type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, there lack evidence on the association between walking and T2D, specifically, within developing countries such as Chile.To investigate self-reported T2D in Chilean adult population.5520 participants (aged 15 to 90 years, 52.1% women) from National Health Survey 2016-2017 were included this cross-sectional study. Both (slow, average, brisk) data collected through...
Abstract Objective The aim of the study was to determine main factors (sociodemographic, anthropometric, lifestyle and health status) associated with high Na excretion in a representative population Chile. Design (g/d), valid marker intake, determined by urine analysis Tanaka’s formulas. Blood pressure measured trained staff derived from mean three readings recorded after 15 min rest. associations blood primary correlates were using logistic regression. Setting Chileans aged ≥15 years....
Material and Methods: A cross-sectional analysis of 244 individuals aged 60 years or more, participating in the 2016-2017 Chilean National Health Survey, was carried out. Handgrip strength evaluated by a hand dynamometer low grip determined as ⤠15 kg 27 for women men, respectively.
Effects of a lower body weight or waist circumference on cardiovascular risk. Findings from the Chilean health surveyBackground: Overall and central obesity are important risk factors for disease.Aim: To investigate association weight, mass index (BMI) (WC) with in Chile.Material Methods: We included 5,157 participants National Health Survey 2009-2010.Prevalence type 2 diabetes, hypertension, metabolic syndrome dyslipidemia (high total cholesterol triglyceride levels low HDL-cholesterol)...
