MALTA, Deborah Carvalho  y  GRUPO VIGITEL et al. Noncommunicable chronic disease risk and protective factor prevalence among adults in Brazilian state capital cities, 2013. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2015, vol.24, n.3, pp.373-387. ISSN 1679-4974.

OBJECTIVE: to describe chronic disease risk and protective factor prevalence among adults living in Brazilian state capital cities in 2013 and to verify associated sociodemographic factors. METHODS: this was a cross-sectional study involving 52,929 telephone interviews; risk and protective factor prevalence was estimated by sex, age and schooling; Poisson Regression was used to investigate associations. RESULTS: prevalence was as follows: smoking 11.3% (95%CI:10.6%;11.9%); alcohol abuse 16.4% (95%CI:15.7%;17.0%); recommended intake of fruits and vegetables 23.6% (95%CI:22.9%;24.3%);physical inactivity 16.2% (95%CI:15.6%;16.9%); overweight 50.8% (95%CI:49.9%;51.6%); high salt intake 16.0% (95%CI:15.3%;16.6%); meals replaced with snacks 15.5% (95%CI:15.8%;17.1%); regular consumption of confectionery 19.5% (95%CI:18.8%;20.2%). Risk factor presence was associated with male gender, older age and lower schooling. CONCLUSION: monitoring supports planning public policies on health promotion by reducing morbidity and mortality from chronic diseases.
