    Silva, Carolina Assis; Santos, Izabela da Silva; Shivappa, Nitin; Hebert, James R.; Crivellenti, Lívia Castro; Sartorelli, Daniela Saes

    Resumo em Inglês:

    ABSTRACT The aim was to investigate the relationship between the energy contribution (E%) of foods according to the degree of industrial processing and the energy-adjusted dietary inflammatory index (E-DII) in pregnancy. Two 24-hour dietary recalls were obtained from each of the 784 pregnant women. Adjusted linear regression models allowed observing an inverse association between E-DII scores and E% from minimally processed foods β = -0.049 (95%CI -0.055– -0.042) and a direct association with the E% of ultra-processed foods β = 0.052 (95%CI 0.045–0.058), indicating a relationship between the dietary inflammatory potential and the degree of industrial processing of foods.
  • How important is school environment in explaining individual variance of health behaviors? Brief Communication

    Boing, Antonio Fernando; Subramanian, SV; Boing, Alexandra Crispim

    Resumo em Inglês:

    ABSTRACT We analyzed data from the National School-based Health Survey (PeNSE) carried out in Brazil in 2015 (n = 102,072 adolescents) to estimate how much of the individual variance in the prevalence of health behaviors is attributable to the school level. Multilevel logistic regression models were calculated to estimate the variance partitional coefficient (VPC) of the use of drugs, intake of unhealthy food, leisure physical activity and weight-related behaviors. The between-schools variance was significant in all tested models. The highest VPCs were observed when the use of drugs was analyzed (15%-20% of the total variance of smoking and use of illegal drugs). Lower, but still significant, values were observed in the other outcomes. The school context plays an important role in the adolescents’ health and should be considered in the design of public policies and actions in public health.

    Pereira, Bruna Antunes de Aguiar Ximenes; Azevedo, Renata Cruz Soares de

    Resumo em Português:

    RESUMO Diretrizes ressaltam a importância da abordagem do uso de substâncias por adolescentes, particularmente na atenção básica. Todavia, observam-se problemas para sua incorporação. O objetivo deste estudo foi apresentar as etapas de capacitação no tema para profissionais da atenção básica. Realizou-se estruturação logística, elaboração do conteúdo e avaliação das dificuldades antes e após a capacitação. Participaram 60% dos profissionais envolvidos no atendimento de adolescentes em município de médio porte. Mais da metade afirmou ter dificuldades na abordagem, principalmente limitações teóricas e pouco tempo para atendimento. Após o treinamento, os profissionais informaram se sentir mais preparados, mas dificuldades práticas se mantiveram.

    Resumo em Inglês:

    ABSTRACT Guidelines emphasize the importance of approaching substance use by adolescents, particularly in primary health care. However, there are problems with its incorporation. The objective of this study was to present the training stages on the theme for professionals in primary health care. Researchers conducted logistic structuring, content elaboration and evaluation of difficulties before and after training. Sixty percent of professionals involved in the care of adolescents in a medium-sized city participated in the study. More than half of them stated having difficulties in the approach, mainly theoretical limitations and short consultations. After the training, the professionals informed whether they felt more prepared, but practical difficulties remained.
