description Introduction: Since March 2020, social, preventive and obligatory lockdown (ASPO, according to Spanish acronym) was stipulated in Argentina to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV-2. Life habits, specially eating habits and physical activity levels were altered, particularly in children and adolescents because of the discontinuance of social and school activities. Objective: To evaluate changes in eating and sleeping habits, physical activity levels, sedentary lifestyles and body weight in adolescents in Cordoba, Argentina, during lockdown due to COVID-19.  Method: Observational, cross sectional study carried out in schooled adolescents.  An on-line questionnaire was used to inquire about changes in eating habits, levels of physical activity and sedentary lifestyle, length of night sleep and body weight during social, preventive and obligatory lockdown due to COVID-19 and the period before pandemic.  Results: Sixty-two percent of adolescents changed their eating habits, the main increase was seen in homemade and fresh food consumption; the biggest change was observed in women and in participants over 14 years old (p<0.01). A 55% reduced the levels of physical activity (associated to age group, p=0,03), 79% spent more time sitting, 40% slept more and 37.5% gained weight. Tobacco and alcohol consumption decreased in more than 90% of the participants while the increase in consumption was greater in women (p<0,01) and in participants over 14 years old (p<0.01). Conclusions: The level of physical activity, sleeping habits and body weight showed changes during lockdown. It is important to consider these adverse effects in contexts of measures addressing pandemic.

Introducción: Desde marzo de 2020 Argentina dispuso un aislamiento social, preventivo y obligatorio (ASPO) para reducir la transmisión del SARS-CoV-2. Los hábitos de vida, particularmente alimentación y nivel de actividad física resultaron alterados, especialmente en niños/as y adolescentes debido al cese de actividades escolares y sociales. Objetivo: Evaluar cambios en la alimentación, hábitos de sueño, nivel de actividad física, sedentarismo y peso corporal en adolescentes de Córdoba, Argentina, durante el confinamiento por COVID-19.  Métodos: Estudio observacional-transversal en adolescentes escolarizados. Mediante un cuestionario online se indagaron cambios en alimentación, nivel de actividad física y sedentarismo, duración del sueño nocturno, y peso corporal durante el aislamiento social, preventivo y obligatorio por COVID-19 con respecto al periodo pre-pandémico. Resultados: El 62% de los adolescentes cambiaron sus hábitos alimentarios, aumentando principalmente el consumo de preparaciones caseras y alimentos frescos. Un 55% disminuyó el nivel de actividad física, 79% pasó más tiempo sentado, 40% durmió más, y 37,5% aumentó de peso. El consumo de tabaco y alcohol disminuyó en más del 90% de los participantes. Conclusiones: El nivel de actividad física, hábitos de sueño y peso corporal presentaron alteraciones durante el periodo de confinamiento. Resulta relevante considerar estos cambios en las disposiciones en contextos de pandemia. Introdução: Desde março de 2020, na Argentina, foi estabelecido o isolamento social, preventivo e obrigatório (ASPO) para reduzir a transmissão do SARS-CoV-2. Os hábitos de vida, principalmente a alimentação e o nível de atividade física foram alterados, principalmente em crianças e adolescentes devido à interrupção das atividades escolares e sociais. Objetivo: Avaliar mudanças na alimentação, hábitos de sono, nível de atividade física, sedentarismo e peso corporal em adolescentes de Córdoba, Argentina, durante o confinamento pelo COVID-19. Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo observacional transversal com adolescentes escolarizados. Por meio de um questionário online, foram pesquisadas mudanças na alimentação, nível de atividade física e sedentarismo, duração do sono noturno e peso corporal durante o isolamento social, preventivo e obrigatório pela COVID-19 em relação ao período pré-pandemia. Resultados: 62% dos adolescentes mudaram seus hábitos alimentares, aumentando principalmente o consumo de preparações caseiras e alimentos in natura, sendo a mudança maior nas mulheres e nos maiores de 14 anos (p<0,01). 55% diminuíram o nível de atividade física (associado à faixa etária, p=0,03), 79% passaram mais tempo sentados, 40% dormiram mais e 37,5% ganharam peso. O consumo de tabaco e álcool diminuiu em mais de 90% dos participantes, enquanto o aumento do consumo foi maior nas mulheres (p<0,01) e nos maiores de 14 anos (p<0,01). Conclusões: O nível de atividade física, hábitos de sono e peso corporal apresentaram alterações durante o período de confinamento. É relevante considerar estes efeitos adversos no contexto das medidas de resposta à pandemia. Escuela de Salud Pública y Ambiente. Fac. Cs.
