Objective
To describe, in a comparative manner, the prevalence of chronic non-communicable diseases and ultra-processed food, alcohol and tobacco consumption, estimated by the Chronic Disease Risk and Protective Factors Surveillance Telephone Survey (Vigitel) and National Health Survey (PNS), in Rio Branco, capital city of the state of Acre, Brazil.
Methods
This was a cross-sectional study on sociodemographic, health and lifestyle data from surveys conducted in 2019. Prevalence and 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were described, and percentage difference was calculated.
Results
Of the 3,037 individuals assessed, similar prevalence, with difference between Vigitel (60.3%; 95%CI 56.2;64.3) and PNS (70.8%; 95%CI 67.4;73.9) regarding people of Brown race/skin color was found. In the stratification by sex, it could be seen percentage difference between the surveys, regarding obesity (male= 6.5%; female= 0.4%), smoking (male= 4.0%; female= -1.5%) and alcohol abuse (male= 6.9%; female= -2.5%), although with overlapping 95%CI.
