Resumo

Objective of this study was to investigate the associations between active displacement andmarkers of adiposity and cardio-metabolic risk in the Chilean adult population. Methodology: atotal of 5,157 participants from the National Health Survey of Chile 2009-2010, were included inthis cross-sectional study. The active displacements were measured using the Global PhysicalActivity Questionnaire (GPAQ v2). The body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC)were measured and used to define obesity and central obesity. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolicsyndrome were determined using updated WHO criteria and ATPIII-NCEP. The results estimates(deltas and odds ratios) were weighted using the sample weights provided by the statistical analysisof CNHS.17 with the STATA 14 software (Stata Corp, College Station, TX). A two-way α levelwas used with a value of 0.05. Results: the main finding of this study was that a 30-minute increasein active displacement is associated with lower probabilities of a BMI> 25.0 kg / m2 (0.93 [95% CI:0.88-0.98, p = 0.010]). Similarly, the odds of suffering from central obesity was 0.87 [0.82-0.92, p<0.0001]. Similar associations were found for DT2 (0.81 [0.75-0.88], p <0.0001) and metabolicsyndrome (OR: 0.86 [0.80-0.92], P <0.0001). Conclusion: clear association between activedisplacement and lower adiposity and lower probabilities of suffering cardiovascular risk factors,independently of other associated factors. Therefore, interventions to increase active displacementcan be considered as part of strategies to increase levels of physical activity in the population andthus reduce the burden of cardiometabolic disorders.
