SILVA, Luiza Eunice Sá da et al. Temporal trend of overweight and obesity prevalence among Brazilian adults, according to sociodemographic characteristics, 2006-2019. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.1, e2020294.  Epub 31-Ene-2021. ISSN 1679-4974.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1679-49742021000100008.

Objetivo

To analyze the temporal trend of overweight and obesity prevalence rates among adults in the Brazilian state capitals and Federal District between 2006 and 2019.

Methods

This was a time series study using data from the Surveillance System for Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey, 2006-2019 (n=730,309). Prevalence of overweight and obesity for each of the years was analyzed, according to combined sex, age, and schooling. Temporal variation trend was analyzed using Prais-Winsten regression.

Results

Variations in overweight prevalence were observed, mainly among males 18-24 years old with up to 8 years of schooling (3.17%/year) and among women between 18-24 years old with more than 12 or more years of schooling (6.81% /year). Variations in obesity prevalence were found mainly among women 18-24 years old with more than 12 years of schooling (10.79%/year).

Conclusion

There was an increase in overweight and obesity in most of the socio-demographic strata studied, especially among more educated young people.
