La adopción de hábitos saludables en lo que concierne a la alimentación puede ser considerado una necesidad en cualquier etapa de la vida, sin embargo, esta convicción es mayor, cuando se trata de impulsar la calidad de vida en adultos mayores que requieren más atención, en cuanto a la forma y contenido de su alimentación. Es claro, en ese sentido que, cuando se le relaciona con la salud, la calidad de vida adquiere una perspectiva integral en donde, el bienestar individual esta relacionado, tanto con el cuidado personal a la hora de alimentarse o adquirir practicas de vida saludables, como con el establecimiento de las relaciones en el entorno en el que se desenvuelven los individuos. En esa perspectiva, este artículo, se propuso como objetivo, caracterizar la pertinencia de las estrategias educativas para fomentar habitos nutricionales que favorezcan la calidad de vida de los adultos mayores en una localidad ecuatoriana. Metodologicamente es una investigación mixta, que incluyó un cuestionario sobre educación nutricional, dirigido a algunos encargados de la atención alimentaria y, una muestra de los adultos mayores que habitan en el contexto en estudio. Entre los resultados destaca la importancia de las estrategias con un enfoque sociocultural a la hora de educar nutricionalmente para orientar la adopción de habitos alimenticios que pueden mejorar la calidad de vida, en adultos mayores.

Introducción: Innumerables factores contribuyen en el tiempo a cambiar conductas relacionadas con el estilo de vida, la pandemia de COVID-19 no solo alteró las rutinas de los individuos, sino que también hizo cambios en los factores que influyen en sus condiciones crónicas. Objetivo: Conocer la percepción de los pacientes con enfermedades cardiometabólicas, con relación a las adaptaciones en su estilo de vida después del contagio por COVID-19.

To compare the level of self-esteem, physical activity, and nutrition in university women who perform or do not perform a work activity. This is a descriptive study, which was carried out with 100 women aged 20 to 30, students at a private higher education institution. Questionnaires were applied with data on lifestyle, socioeconomic, physical activity, food consumption, and selfesteem. Of the total evaluated, 46 do not perform work activities. The predominant class of participants were B2 and C1, with the majority being classified as very active and active. An average self-esteem of 10.49±5.01 was found, with no difference between the groups (p=0.425). It was also observed that the majority eat their meals while watching TV, on the computer, and/or cell phone, in addition to showing a high prevalence of consumption of sweetened drinks and sweets. It is concluded that the level of self-esteem was considered "satisfactory" among university women, with no difference between eating habits and level of physical activity according to the group.

La participación en actividades físico-deportivas extraescolares contribuye al cumplimento de las recomendaciones de actividad física en los adolescentes, pudiendo tener una influencia directa en la salud. El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la realización de actividades físico-deportivas extraescolares, evaluando su relación con diversos hábitos de vida e indicadores de salud física y psicosocial, así como la influencia de diferentes variables sociodemográficas. El estudio se llevó a cabo sobre una muestra de 761 estudiantes (14,51±1,63 años) de 25 centros educativos. Se valoró la realización de actividades físico-deportivas extraescolares, nivel de actividad física, horas de sueño nocturno, adherencia a la dieta mediterránea, consumo máximo de oxígeno, índice de masa corporal, calidad de vida relacionada con la salud, autoestima, satisfacción con la imagen corporal y diversos factores sociodemográficos. Tener menor edad, ser chico, poseer un nivel socioeconómico alto, haber nacido en España, residir en entornos urbanos y estar satisfecho con la imagen corporal fueron predictores de la realización de actividades físico-deportivas extraescolares. Estos factores explicaron en un 19,2% la participación físico-deportiva. Asimismo, los adolescentes que practicaban estas actividades presentaron menores tasas de sobrepeso/obesidad y valores más altos de adherencia a la dieta mediterránea, actividad física, calidad de vida relacionada con la salud, autoestima y consumo máximo de oxígeno. La práctica de actividad físico-deportiva extraescolar está influenciada por múltiples factores que deberían ser tenidos en cuenta para su promoción.

Es importante ver que, con el pasar del tiempo y el crecimiento acelerado del conocimiento de la mano de la tecnología, un mundo interrelacionado por las comunicaciones hace que se vayan consolidando saberes, cuestionando y mejorando conceptos en pro del ser humano, de tal manera que se plantean subgrupos en la clasificación de la diabetes. Estos subgrupos demuestran patrones distintos clínicamente, con comorbilidades, progresión de enfermedad, complicaciones y mayor riesgo de enfermedades cardiovasculares, renales e hígado graso. Se plantea, por supuesto, que cada individuo se ubica en un punto del espectro de variación fenotípica, determinado por su genética y mezcla de lo no genético, lo que representa su salud metabólica y estado de diabetes. En la revisión narrativa realizada por los doctores Matta Herrera y Mendoza-Fuentes, en esta edición de la revista, se enfatizó en la importancia de una clasificación adecuada, con el fin de dar más precisión en tratamientos y se planteó con esto, prevención de complicaciones y disminución de costos.

Resumo Introdução: Alterações fisiológicas do envelhecimento contribuem para osteoporose e fraturas relacionadas à baixa concentração sérica de 25(OH)D. Objetivo: Investigar a associação entre concentração sérica de 25(OH)D, ingestão de alimentos fonte de vitamina D e cálcio, condições de saúde e presença de osteoporose e fraturas em idosos. Método: Estudo transversal com 274 idosos do Piauí. Realizado em duas etapas: questionário sobre ingestão de alimentos fonte de vitamina D, cálcio e condições de saúde (incluindo a variável desfecho, presença de osteoporose e fraturas) e coleta de sangue para exame bioquímico de concentração sérica de 25(OH)D. Realizou-se análise descritiva, inferencial e regressão logística. Resultados: A maioria dos idosos apresentava comorbidades (86,4%). A prevalência dos desfechos foi de 23,7% e 14,6%, respectivamente. Na análise múltipla, ingerir bebidas alcoólicas (OR=6,58; IC95% 1,88–23) e reposição com cálcio (OR=2,87; IC95% 1,25–6,61) mostraram-se associados às fraturas, enquanto sexo feminino (OR=5,69; IC95% 1,12–28,9) e reposição com cálcio (OR=5,62; IC95% 1,62–19,5) mostraram-se associados à osteoporose. As maiores medianas de 25(OH)D foram encontradas naqueles que consumiam queijo e iogurte regularmente (p=0,021). Conclusão: A análise das concentrações séricas de 25(OH)D apontou insuficiência, indicando a necessidade de intervenções para a mudança do estilo de vida.

Introducción: Los jóvenes universitarios están expuestos a cambios y transiciones que marcarán su salud en la adultez. Sus decisiones se traducen en comportamientos que pueden ser saludables o no, y dependen del significado de salud que se construye de conocimientos adquiridos, tradiciones o costumbres culturales. Objetivo: Comprender la influencia que tiene la cultura universitaria en la construcción del significado y prácticas de salud en estudiantes de pregrado de una sede, en una universidad privada en Colombia. Metodología: Estudio cualitativo, tipo etnografía. Participaron 15 estudiantes, 11 profesores y profesionales de Bienestar Universitario. Se aplicó una entrevista semiestructurada virtual, se procesaron los datos, y se sometieron a auditoría. Resultados: El significado de salud responde a una perspectiva individual y biopsicosocial; existe una fuerte influencia del entorno cercano y universitario en la significación y las prácticas de salud. Los hallazgos tienen similitud con otros estudios del ámbito internacional. Conclusiones: Se logró comprender la alta importancia que se da a la salud, entendiéndola principalmente como ausencia de enfermedad, reflejada en creencias, valores y prácticas. Se proponen unos retos, necesarios enfrentar, para hacer a las universidades promotoras del concepto amplio y renovado de la salud.

Introduction: breastfeeding women often cannot adequately follow dietary and healthy habits recommendations. In addition, after delivery, their care is usually focused on the newborn and the mother's health may be neglected. The Mediterranean Diet is the standard of healthy eating, with the Healthy Food Pyramid (HFP) being its graphic representation. Objective: the aim of this study was to determine whether a nutritional and lifestyle online intervention may improve HFP adherence in breastfeeding women. Methods: a total of 181 breastfeeding women in the first sixth months postpartum were enrolled in a non-randomized interventional pilot study. These women answered three questionnaires: sociodemographic and for adherence to Healthy Food Pyramid (APQ), before and after an online intervention for 13 weeks, providing information about nutrition and healthy habits. The APQ ranges from 0 to 10, with higher scores corresponding to greater adherence to HFP. The intervention consisted of lifestyle and nutritional information, which was provided through e-mail. Results: a low adherence to HFP was found, which was improved after 13 weeks of intervention. The online intervention significantly increased the scores for physical activity, grain, seeds and legumes consumption, olive oil use, dairy products, and ani-mal proteins, as well as the HFP adherence global score. The adjusted models showed that the online intervention was associated with adherence to the HFP and physical activity. Conclusion: we conclude that an online intervention for breastfeeding women had an impact on their lifestyle, improving nutritional and healthy habits, and can be a useful tool to monitor their health status. Given the importance of this stage for women and their newborns, this is an aspect postnatal healthcare professionals should consider. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Physiological alterations of aging contribute to osteoporosis and fractures, related to low serum 25(OH)D concentration. Objective: To investigate the association between serum 25(OH)D concentration, intake of foods source of vitamin D and calcium, health conditions and the presence of osteoporosis and fractures in seniors. Method: A cross-sectional study with 274 older adults from Piauí was carried out in two stages: a questionnaire on intake of food sources of vitamin D, calcium and health conditions (including the outcome variable, presence of osteoporosis and fractures), and blood collection for biochemical examination of serum 25(OH)D concentration. Descriptive and inferential analysis and logistic regression were performed. Results: Most participants had comorbidities (86.4%). The outcomes prevalence was 23.7 and 14.6%, respectively. In the multiple analysis, drinking alcoholic beverages (odds ratio -- OR=6.58; 95% confidence interval -- 95%CI 1.88-23) and calcium replacement (OR=2.87; 95%CI 1.25-6.61) were associated with fractures, while female (OR=5.69; 95%CI 1.12-28.9) and calcium replacement (OR=5.62; 95%CI:1.62-19.5) were associated with osteoporosis. The highest medians of 25(OH)D were found in those who regularly consumed cheese and yogurt (p=0.021). Conclusion: The analysis of serum concentrations of 25(OH)D indicated insufficiency, which suggests the need for interventions to change lifestyle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objetivo: analizar las distintas publicaciones referentes a las particularidades de la actividad física como estilo de vida saludable para diferentes sectores poblacionales. Materiales y métodos: en la investigación, se realizó una búsqueda en Scopus, Web of Science y Scielo, b) que contengan las palabras claves: Actividad física, estilo de vida saludable, c) en idioma inglés y/o español, d) en el periodo comprendido entre 2010 hasta y 2023 y e) que el tipo de artículo sea original, de revisión y/o resumen de eventos científicos con código DOI. Resultados: los resultados presentes justifican la necesidad de estimular la práctica sistemática de la actividad física como un medio para un mejor estilo de vida saludable en diferentes grupos poblacionales. Conclusiones: se evidencia que en la literatura científica se hace alusión a los beneficios de la actividad física, que hacen un medio fundamental para un adecuado estilo de vida.

Enquadramento: Têm sido vários os estudos que abordam a problemática do sono e a importância deste para a recuperação física e mental, sendo particularmente importante para os atletas de desporto coletivo. Objetivo: comparar a qualidade de sono dos atletas com não atletas. Metodologia: estudo prospetivo e quantitativo, com 62 participantes (31 atletas e 31 não atletas) que tiveram acesso a um questionário para autopreenchimento, que incluía uma caracterização sociodemográfica e o índice de Pittsburgh para avaliação da qualidade de sono. Resultados: observou-se que os atletas dormem em média cerca de oito horas por noite, apresentando, um tempo maior de latência do sono em comparação aos não atletas (este último sem significado estatístico). Apurou-se também que existe um maior número de indivíduos com boa qualidade de sono no grupo dos atletas em relação aos não atletas. Conclusão: neste estudo, ser atleta parece contribuir para um número médio de horas de sono superior em relação aos não atletas. A consciencialização da adoção de práticas saudáveis para otimizar a qualidade de sono nos atletas pode melhorar a sua performance desportiva.

O ingresso à universidade pode exercer influências sobre o estilo de vida e comportamento alimentar dos jovens. Dessa forma, o presente estudo teve como objetivo identificar o consumo alimentar e estado nutricional de universitários e as possíveis modificações ao longo do primeiro ano de ingresso na universidade. Foi realizado estudo observacional longitudinal com 68 estudantes ingressantes da Universidade Federal de São Paulo. Foram levantados dados clínicos e sociodemográficos, hábito alimentar por meio do questionário de frequência alimentar e coleta de dados antropométricos. Aplicou-se Teste de Friedman para comparação dos dados amostrais vinculados, análise não-paramétrica de dados ordinais com medidas repetidas e medidas de tendência central e de dispersão para a análise dos dados descritivos. Os resultados identificaram redução de consumo da maior parte dos grupos alimentares presentes no inquérito alimentar, sobretudo de carnes, pescados e ovos, verduras e legumes, sucos naturais e gorduras. Houve aumento da frequência do consumo de fast foods. Verificou-se aumento da média de peso, índice de massa corporal (IMC), percentual de adequação da circunferência do braço e circunferência da cintura. A maioria dos entrevistados permaneceu sedentária ou insuficientemente ativa ao longo das avaliações, sem significância estatística entre as variações encontradas. A partir dos dados encontrados, conclui-se que apesar de serem estudantes ingressantes em universidade da área da saúde, não foi percebida preocupação com a manutenção de hábitos de vida saudáveis, com base no aumento de consumo de fast foods, na redução do consumo de frutas, vegetais e leguminosas e na manutenção do sedentarismo pela maioria dos entrevistados.

El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la relación entre estilo de vida y resiliencia en pobladores de una zona rural de Cajamarca. La investigación fue de diseño no experimental y de alcance descriptivo-correlacional. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 309 pobladores. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron el Cuestionario de Estilo de Vida Saludable (Santiago-Bazán & Carcausto, 2019) y la Escala de Resiliencia de Wagnild y Young y adaptado al Perú por Gómez (2019). Los resultados evidencian que el estilo de vida presenta diferencias significativas según el sexo (W = 27272.00; p < .01) y grupo etario (K = 11.175; p < .01). En cuanto a la relación entre las variables se encontró que relación estadísticamente significativa entre el estilo de vida saludable y la resiliencia (rho = .393; p < .01), a excepción de la dimensión físico/mental del estilo de vida que solo presentó relación con algunas dimensiones de la resiliencia. En conclusión, esta investigación pone en evidencia que la resiliencia cumple un rol fundamental en el estilo de vida de las personas de la zona rural de Cajamarca, quienes a pesar de no contar con las condiciones básicas y carencias de comodidades muestran adecuados indicadores de un estilo de vida saludable.

University admission can influence the lifestyle and eating behavior of young people. Therefore, the present study aimed to identify the dietary intake and nutritional status of university students and possible modifications during their first year at the university. A longitudinal observational study was conducted with 68 incoming students at the Federal University of São Paulo. Clinical and sociodemographic data were collected, as well as dietary habits through a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and anthropometric data. The Friedman test was used to compare linked sample data, non-parametric analysis of repeated ordinal data, and measures of central tendency and dispersion for descriptive data analysis. The results identified a reduction in the consumption of most food groups present in the FFQ, especially meats, fish and eggs, vegetables and legumes, natural juices, and fats. There was an increase in the frequency of fast food consumption. An increase in the mean weight, body mass index (BMI), arm circumference adequacy percentage, and waist circumference was also observed. Most of the participants remained sedentary or insufficiently active throughout the evaluations, with no statistical significance between the variations found. Based on the data found, it was concluded that despite being incoming students at a health-related university, there was no perceived concern for maintaining healthy lifestyles, based on the increase in fast food consumption, the reduction in fruit, vegetable, and legume intake, and the maintenance of sedentary behavior by most participants.

In this article we analyze some contemporary socio-territorial processes in the Aysén region, Chilean Patagonia, with special emphasis on the Exploradores Valley. We estimate that those processes can be interpreted as a form of rural and "green" gentrification. Under this category we want to account for a multiplicity of interdependent processes as the displacement of the local population linked to the increase in land value, an explosion in the real estate supply, new patterns of consumption and socio-territorial practices, as well as the emergence of discourses that would position this region as an enclave for conservation and preservation of nature under the slogan "Reserve of Life". From this framework, the study aims to contribute with a critical reading of depoliticized conservation discourses, highlighting the socio-territorial impacts that these renewed processes of "eco-colonization" bring with them, characteristic of a new geography of capital. Methodologically, we propose a mixed platform based on in field observations, semi-structured interviews with key informants, bibliographic analysis and information gathering in the Real Estate Notary.

The COVID-19 pandemic constituted a radical change in people's lives. In order to identify the implications in the personal, family and social dimensions, this piece of research was conducted with a qualitative phenomenological approach. It highlights the alteration in the family dynamics to implement care measures in the coexistence with patients with COVID-19, which implied greater challenges in the cases of low-economic-income families. The impact on the physical and mental health of people who have suffered from it, and a health system that needs to be strengthened, is highlighted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: Young university students are exposed to changes and transitions that will influence their health in adulthood. Their decisions translate into behaviors that may or may not be healthy and are dependent on their meaning of health that is built upon acquired knowledge, traditions, or cultural customs. The objective of this study is to understand how university cul-ture influences undergraduate students in establishing health practices and the meaning of health at a private university in Colombia. Methodology: In this ethnographic, qualitative study, 15 students, 11 professors, and UW (University Wellfare) professionals were included. A virtual semi-structured interview was used and data were coded and audited. Results: The results show the meaning of health depends on individual and biopsychosocial perspectives; there is a strong influence of the immediate environment, such as family and university on the meaning and practices of health. The findings are similar to other international studies. Conclusions: It was possible to understand the high importance given to health, which is mainly understood as the absence of disease, reflected in beliefs, values and practices. Some necessary challenges are proposed to be faced to make universities promoters of the broad and renewed concept of health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: eating habits are one of the main predictors of health within a person lifestyle. The assessment of these habits will be essential to confirm health-related habits and orientate behaviors of risk for health. Objectives: to assess the eating habits within the health-related lifestyle among Spanish adults from 22 to 72 years of age. Methods: the Health-Related Lifestyle Assessment Scale (E-VEVSA) was applied to a sample of 788 subjects between the ages of 22 and 72. This scale is made up of 52 items and structured in seven dimensions, among which the healthy eating habit was evaluated, which explained a variance of 8.67 % of the total scale (66.87 %) and a Cronbach's alpha of 0.794 for a total alpha of 0.894. Results: sixteen percent of the adults surveyed have healthy eating habits, 68.3 % tend towards health and 15.7 % are unhealthy. Pearson's χ2 tests show a positive and significant association of women with healthy eating habits and a significant improvement with age. The inferential data (Student's t-tests and one-factor ANOVA) confirm these differences according to gender and age. Conclusions: it is necessary to promote preventive programs to improve eating habits in the adult population, especially in the 15.7 % that have an unhealthy level of nutrition in their lifestyle.

Introduction: nutritional epidemiology seeks to understand the relationship between food consumption and the occurrence of diseases. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil) used a reduced Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) to compare diet quality between cohort stages. Objective: to develop and validate an index created using a food quality score (FQS) using the FFQ of ELSA-Brasil. Methods: a cross-sectional study carried out between August 2020 and March 2021 with 4262 participants. For each frequency of consumption of healthy and unhealthy food markers, a score was given. Validity and reliability were tested using Pearson's correlation, principal component analysis (PCA) and Cronbach's alpha. Tests were performed to verify differences between individual characteristics and FQS. Results: the PCA indicated a total variability of 42.5 %. Women and individuals with higher age, physical activity and per capita income had a higher FQS, while those who reported higher consumption of alcohol and being smokers had a lower score. Cronbach's alpha was 0.47. Conclusion: the FQS showed a satisfactory validity and reliability and was associated with socioeconomic and lifestyle data. Therefore, it is a useful tool for comparing dietary information, thus contributing to nutritional epidemiology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: to identify the effect of the physical exercise program, of the healthy USCO institutional project with a sanological approach, on 40 overweight university students. Methodolgy: a mixed study is proposed using quantitative and qualitative methodology. Specifically, a quasiexperimental study of a single group was developed with evaluation before and after, the data was taken from the review of clinical-sanological histories of the physical exercise program, of the physical activity dimension, of the Healthy USCO project, 40 students with BMI (body mass index) between the ranges of 25 to 30 kg/m2 were selected. An instrument called clinical-sanological history was used, it was designed, adjusted, and standardized by researchers Pedro Reyes Gaspar and Dolly Arias Torres. The data was processed through a semi-structured interview through the creation of codes, and categories with the ATLAS.ti 6.0 software, for the comparison of the BMI the Wilcoxon test was used and the effect size through Hedges' G in the SPSS program version 24. Results: after the intervention, important changes were observed in the understanding of the concept of health, current health, and physical exercise as a tool for health care and old age in a group of overweight university students. Furthermore, a significant change in the BMI of the population was identified. Conclusions: the strategy of physical exercise from a sanological approach is feasible and effective due to the significant changes in the thinking and behavior in the health of overweight university students.
