Abstract:
:The few studies on health and nutrition in indigenous peoples in Northeast Brazil point to some differences with indigenous peoples in the North and Central of the country. This study estimated the prevalence rates and risk of overweight and excess weight in Xukuru children in the village of Ororubá, Pernambuco State, and assessed the socioeconomic and demographic factors potentially associated with these conditions. This cross-sectional study analyzed the associations between adequate weight, excess weight (overweight and obesity), and risk of overweight according to the indices and cutoff points of the World Health Organization for children and the explanatory variables, using multinomial logistic regression. Prevalence of excess weight was 7.7% and risk of overweight was 24.2%. The odds of risk of overweight and excess weight were higher in children < 2 years. Children of obese mothers showed higher odds of excess weight. Prevalence of risk of overweight was 97% higher when compared to households with fixed income. The findings suggest that the Xukuru are experiencing an accelerated nutritional transition, with a paradoxical situation to which other indigenous peoples in Brazil are also exposed. :Os poucos estudos que abordam o tema de saúde e nutrição em indígenas da macrorregião Nordeste do Brasil sinalizaram situações diferenciadas em alguns aspectos, quando comparados principalmente à realidade de indígenas do Norte e Centro-oeste. Este trabalho objetivou estimar a magnitude das prevalências e risco de sobrepeso e excesso de peso em crianças menores de dez anos da etnia Xukuru do Ororubá, Estado de Pernambuco, e avaliar os fatores socioeconômicos e demográficos potencialmente associados a estes agravos. Estudo transversal, no qual realizou-se uma análise da associação entre as variáveis de desfecho, peso adequado, excesso de peso (sobrepeso e obesidade) e risco de sobrepeso, de acordo com os índices e pontos de corte da Organização Mundial da Saúde para crianças e as variáveis explicativas, utilizando-se regressão logística multinomial. A prevalência de excesso de peso foi de 7,7% e de risco de sobrepeso de 24,2%. As chances de risco de sobrepeso e de excesso de peso são maiores em crianças < 2 anos, e filhos de mães obesas apresentam maior chance de excesso de peso. A prevalência de risco de sobrepeso foi 97% maior quando comparada com os domicílios sem renda fixa. Os achados sugerem que os Xukuru estão atravessando um acelerado processo de transição nutricional, com uma situação paradoxal a que outros povos indígenas no Brasil estão expostos. :Los escasos estudios que abordan el tema de salud y nutrición en indígenas de la macrorregión Nordeste de Brasil mostraron situaciones diferenciadas en algunos aspectos, cuando se comparan principalmente con la realidad de los indígenas del Norte y Centro-oeste. El objetivo de este trabajo fue estimar la magnitud de las prevalencias y riesgo de sobrepeso, así como de exceso de peso en niños menores de diez años de la etnia Xukuru do Ororubá, estado de Pernambuco, y evaluar los factores socioeconómicos y demográficos potencialmente asociados a estos problemas. Se trata de un estudio transversal, en el que se realizó un análisis de la asociación entre las variables de desenlace, peso adecuado, exceso de peso (sobrepeso y obesidad) y riesgo de sobrepeso, conforme los índices y puntos de corte de la Organización Mundial de la Salud para niños, y las variables explicativas, utilizando una regresión logística multinomial. La prevalencia de exceso de peso fue de un 7,7% y la de riesgo de sobrepeso de 24,2%. Las oportunidades de riesgo de sobrepeso y de exceso de peso son mayores en niños < 2 años, asimismo, hijos de madres obesas presentan una mayor oportunidad de exceso de peso. La prevalencia de riesgo de sobrepeso fue un 97% mayor cuando se compara con domicilios sin ingresos fijos. Los resultados sugieren que los Xukuru están atravesando un acelerado proceso de transición nutricional, con una situación paradójica a la que otros pueblos indígenas en Brasil están expuestos.
