Introduction: Overweight and obesity are chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) that currently have pandemic dimensions, and are important cardiometabolic risk factors for the development of other NCDs.
Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of body adiposity and cardiovascular risk based on BMI (Body Mass Index), WHR (Waist Hip Ratio), WHtR (Waist Height Ratio), PMI (Pulse Mass Index) and WC (Waist Circumference) and, in turn, explore the association of those ratios with sociodemographic information, diet quality and physical inactivity.
Methods: Cross-sectional prevalence study carried out in 971 adults of both sexes coming from the urban area of Neiva, between June 2018 and June 2019. Healthcare professionals performed anthropometry to calculate the above-mentioned ratios, using standardized protocols. Validated cut-off points for the Latin American and Colombian population were used for classification as normal weight, overweight, obesity, abdominal obesity and cardiovascular risk.
Results: The following prevalences were recorded; 56.5% excess weight (39.5% overweight, 17% obesity), 48% abdominal obesity, 41.1% normal weight, 2.4% underweight, 68.5% cardiovascular risk (43% high cardiovascular risk, 21.7% very high cardiovascular risk), 63.8% moderate and poor diet quality, 57% physical inactivity. These ratios were associated with increasing age, male sex, increased body adiposity, diet quality and physical inactivity.
Conclusions: The high prevalences for excess weight, overweight, obesity and cardiovascular risk observed in adults in Neiva are due in part to the high proportion of moderate and poor diet quality and physical inactivity.
