Abstract (English): This is a cross-sectional observational study. Children's weight, height, blood pressure, serum levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol were objectively measured from participants. Statistical analysis was performed using the ANOVA technique for parametric data and the Kruskal- Wallis test for nonparametric data. Study was conducted on 157 children aged 7-9 from two educational institutions located in low-income areas in Bogotá, Colombia. Weight excess (overweight and obesity) was observed in 46 subjects, of which 97.8% had a high or very high waist circumference. The lipid profile was altered in 45.2% of the subjects; 22.3% presented high levels of triglycerides. Metabolic syndrome was identified in 32.6% of the subjects with excess weight, thus being the most frequent component of high or very high waist circumference. Finally this study confirmed the high prevalence of malnutrition by excess weightand, also excess weight associated with high triglyceride and low HDL levels. The results of this study suggest the need for early and thorough interventions aimed at improving the lifestyles and quality of life of children. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Este es un estudio observacional transversal. Se realizó valoración antropométrica, bioquímica y de presión arterial en 157 niños y niñas con edades de 7 a 9 años de dos instituciones educativas, localizadas en sectores con recursos económicos limitados de Bogotá. Se determinó niveles séricos de colesterol total, triglicéridos, colesterol HDL, colesterol LDL y colesterol no-HDL. Se realizó análisis estadístico mediante la técnica de ANOVA para datos paramétricos y la prueba de Kruskal-Wallis para datos no paramétricos. Se observó exceso de peso (sobrepeso y obesidad) en 46 sujetos de los cuales el 97.8% presentó circunferencia de cintura alta. El perfil lipídico se encontró alterado en el 45.2% de los sujetos; el 22.3% presentaron triglicéridos elevados. El síndrome metabólico se identificó en el 32,6% de los sujetos con exceso de peso, siendo el componente más frecuente la circunferencia de cintura alta. En este estudio se pudo confirmar la alta prevalencia de malnutrición por exceso y también el exceso de peso asociado a valores altos de triglicéridos y niveles bajo de HDL. Este estudio sugiere la necesidad de intervenciones tempranas e integrales enfocadas a mejorar los estilos y calidad de vida de los niños y niñas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
