Relationship Between Locomotor Functional Capacity and Obesity Degrees in Adult Argentine Women

Introduction: Individuals with obesity experience a decrease in their locomotor functional capacity compared to those without overweight. It is not clear whether, in people with obesity, this capacity is related to the degree of obesity. Objective: To analyze the relationship between obesity degrees...

description Introduction: Individuals with obesity experience a decrease in their locomotor functional capacity compared to those without overweight. It is not clear whether, in people with obesity, this capacity is related to the degree of obesity. Objective: To analyze the relationship between obesity degrees according to different anthropometric indicators and locomotor functional capacity. Methodology: Fifty-three voluntary adult women (46.3±8.0 years old) with a body mass index (BMI) equal to or greater than 30 participated in the study (n=20 with obesity grade I; n=17 with obesity grade II; n=16 with obesity grade III). Weight, height and waist circumference were measured and the 6-minute walk test, and timed up-and-go test were taken. Results: Statistically significant associations were found between different obesity indicators and locomotor functional capacity, especially in the 6-minute walk test and BMI. These correlations remained significant even in individuals without diabetes, without metabolic syndrome, and who had not reached menopause. Conclusions: In adult women with obesity, locomotor functional capacity decreases as the degree of obesity increases, even in individuals without metabolic disorders or advanced age. Therefore, any reduction in the degree of obesity is advisable, even in individuals who may not achieve a non-obese situation.

Introducción: Las personas con obesidad ven afectada su capacidad funcional locomotora en relación a las personas sin exceso de peso. No está suficientemente claro si, en personas con obesidad, esta capacidad se relaciona con el grado de dicha enfermedad. Objetivo: Analizar la relación entre grados de obesidad según diferentes indicadores antropométricos y capacidad funcional locomotora. Metodología: Cincuenta y tres mujeres adultas voluntarias (46,3±8,0 años de edad) con un índice de masa corporal igual o superior a 30 participaron del estudio (n=20 obesidad grado I; n=17 obesidad grado II; n=16 obesidad grado III). Se les midió peso, estatura, circunferencia de cintura, prueba de caminata de 6 minutos y prueba cronometrada de levantarse y andar. Resultados: Se encontraron asociaciones estadísticamente significativas entre los diferentes indicadores de obesidad y la capacidad funcional locomotora, especialmente en la prueba de caminata de 6 minutos y el índice de masa corporal. Las correlaciones se mantuvieron significativas aún en sujetos sin diabetes, sin síndrome metabólico y que no han alcanzado la menopausia. Conclusiones: En mujeres adultas con obesidad la capacidad funcional locomotora disminuye a medida que se incrementa el grado de obesidad, incluso en personas sin desórdenes metabólicos ni de edad avanzada. De aquí que resulte conveniente cualquier disminución del grado de obesidad, incluso en personas que no logren abandonar el estado de obesidad. Introdução: Pessoas com obesidade têm sua capacidade funcional locomotora afetada em relação a pessoas sem excesso de peso. Não está suficientemente claro se, em pessoas com obesidade, esta capacidade está relacionada com o grau da referida doença. Objetivo: Analisar a relação entre graus de obesidade segundo diferentes indicadores antropométricos e capacidade funcional locomotora. Metodologia: Participaram do estudo 53 mulheres voluntárias adultas do sexo feminino (46,3±8,0 anos) com índice de massa corporal igual ou superior a 30 (n=20 obesidade grau I; n=17 obesidade grau II; n=16 obesidade grau III ). Foram medidos o peso, altura, circunferência da cintura, teste de caminhada de 6 minutos e teste cronometrado.de levantar e andar Resultados: Foram encontradas associações estatisticamente significativas entre os diferentes indicadores de obesidade e capacidade funcional locomotora, especialmente no teste de caminhada de 6 minutos e índice de massa corporal. As correlações permaneceram significativas mesmo em indivíduos sem diabetes, sem síndrome metabólica e que não atingiram a menopausa. Conclusões: Em mulheres adultas com obesidade, a capacidade funcional locomotora diminui à medida que o grau de obesidade aumenta, mesmo em pessoas sem distúrbios metabólicos ou com idade avançada. Assim, qualquer redução do grau de obesidade é aconselhável, mesmo em pessoas que não conseguem abandonar o estado de obesidade. Escuela de Salud Pública y Ambiente. Fac. Cs.
