Abstract

CALDEIRA, Thaís Cristina Marquezine et al. Chronic disease risk and protective behaviors in Brazilian state capitals and the Federal District, according to the National Health Survey and the Chronic Disease Risk and Protective Factors Telephone Survey Surveillance System, 2019. Epidemiol. Serv. Saúde [online]. 2022, vol.31, n.esp1, e2021367.  Epub July 27, 2022. ISSN 1679-4974.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/ss2237-9622202200009.especial.

Objective:

To describe and compare the results of the main risk and protective factors for chronic non-communicable diseases, in the 26 Brazilian capitals and the Federal District, obtained through the National Health Survey (PNS) and the Surveillance System for Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (VIGITEL) in 2019.

Methods:

Cross-sectional study, in which the difference in prevalence between health behavior indicators investigated by PNS and VIGITEL was calculated.

Results:

The largest discrepancy between the surveys, PNS (n = 32,111) and VIGITEL (n = 52,443), were observed in relation to leisure-time physical activity (6.8 in percentage points - p.p.), recommended physical activity in the transport domain (7.4 p.p.), and high screen time (21.8 p.p.). Both surveys presented similar prevalence regarding nutritional status, food consumption, smoking, alcohol abuse and negative self-rated health.

Conclusion:

Prevalence in both surveys presented small differences, but point to results in the same direction.
