Relación entre adiposidad corporal y presión arterial en niños y adolescentes con enfermedades reumáticas

Abstract

Introducción: las enfermedades reumáticas son un grupo de afecciones que se caracterizan por la presencia, generalmente, de dolor, inflamación, deformidad, discapacidad funcional y disminución de la percepción de calidad de vida relacionada con la salud. Las complicaciones cardiovasculares son frecuentes en el curso de estas enfermedades; los trastornos nutricionales pueden ser causa o consecuencia de estas complicaciones. Objetivo: determinar la relación existente entre adiposidad corporal y presión arterial en niños y adolescentes con enfermedades reumáticas. Metodos: estudio descriptivo, de corte transversal en 45 pacientes con enfermedades reumáticas diagnosticadas según los criterios del American College of Reumathology. Se utilizó la técnica de bioimpedancia para determinar el porcentaje de grasa corporal e índice de correlación de Pearson para determinar relación entre variable. Resultados: promedio de edad de 12,26 ± 8,74 años, predominio de pacientes femeninas (68,69 %) y entre 15 y 18 años de edad (42,22 %). La enfermedad reumática más representada fue la artritis idiopática juvenil (46,67 %). Predominaron los pacientes con aumento del porcentaje de grasa, donde el sobrepeso (44,44 %) y la obesidad (20,0 %) fueron los más representados. El 20,0 % de los pacientes incluidos en la investigación presentaron alteraciones de la presión arterial con predominio en pacientes obesos (33,33 %) y con sobrepeso (20,0 %). Conclusiones: Mantener un adecuado control de la adiposidad corporal disminuye considerablemente la posibilidad de aparición de trastornos de la presión arterial. La bioimpedancia eléctrica es un método de fácil aplicación y de comprobada efectividad para determinar el porcentaje de grasa. ABSTRACT Introduction: rheumatic diseases are a group of conditions that are characterized by the presence, usually, of pain, inflammation, deformity, functional disability and decreased perception of quality of life related to health. Cardiovascular complications are frequent in the course of these diseases; Nutritional disorders may be the cause or consequence of these complications. Objective: to determine the relationship between body adiposity and blood pressure in children and adolescents with rheumatic diseases. Methodology: descriptive, cross-sectional study in 45 patients with rheumatic diseases diagnosed according to the criteria of the American College of Reumathology. The bioimpedance technique was used to determine the percentage of body fat and Pearson's correlation index to determine the relationship between variables. Results: average age of 12.26 ± 8.74 years, predominance of female patients (68.69 %) and between 15 and 18 years of age (42.22 %). The most represented rheumatic disease was juvenile idiopathic arthritis (46.67 %). Patients with increased fat percentage predominated, where overweight (44.44 %) and obesity (20.0 %) were the most represented. 20.0 % of the patients included in the investigation presented alterations in blood pressure, predominantly in obese patients (33.33 %) and overweight (20.0 %). Conclusions: Maintaining adequate control of body adiposity considerably reduces the possibility of the appearance of blood pressure disorders. The electric bioimpedance is a method of easy application and proven effectiveness to determine the percentage of fat.
