| description |
Introduction: Health is perceived as a dynamic process that considers the holistic well-being of individuals, wherein various conditions operate at multiple organizational levels. The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizes Children's Environmental Health as a significant health challenge in the 21st century.
Objetives: to assess the environmental factors that contribute to obesity in children and adolescents who receive medical care at two primary healthcare centers (HC) at Córdoba, Argentina, during 2019 to 2022.
Methods: Observational, descriptive and transversal study. The physical, social and food environment, and nutritional status were assessed in 382 children and adolescents who attend two HC in the city of Córdoba, Argentina. Univariate analysis and multiple correspondence analysis were performed. The aim was to identify and characterize clusters based on response modalities to selected variables of nutritional status (prevalence of obesity in children and adolescents) and environmental (possession of sewers, type of dwelling, type of cooking fuel, migrant population, neighborhood of residence, parents' work, consumption of fruits and vegetables), with significant association (test value>2).
Results: Obesity was characterized by a population that does not have access to sewer systems, lives in ceded or occupied homes, has male and female parents who are unemployed or informal workers, and do not consume fruits and vegetables frequently.
Conclusions: Differential characteristics of the environment were observed in relation to the occurrence of obesity. The present study introduces a novel perspective that enhances the comprehension of health in children and adolescents. |

Introducción: Entendemos la salud como un proceso que tiene en cuenta al ser humano en su espacio vital y que está influenciada por condiciones que ocurren a todos los niveles de organización. La Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) considera a la Salud Ambiental Infantil como uno de los principales retos sanitarios del siglo XXI. Objetivo: Analizar los determinantes ambientales de la obesidad en niños, niñas y adolescentes que asisten a dos centros de atención primaria de salud (CS) de Córdoba, Argentina período 2019-2022. Metodología: Estudio observacional y transversal. Se valoró el ambiente físico, social y alimentario, y estado nutricional de 382 niños, niñas y adolescentes que asisten a dos CS en Córdoba. Se realizó análisis de correspondencias múltiples para la caracterización de agrupamientos en función de las modalidades de respuesta a la presencia de obesidad y condiciones ambientales (tenencia de cloacas, tipo de vivienda, tipo de combustible para cocción, población migrante, barrio de residencia, trabajo de los padres, consumo de frutas y verduras), que evidenciaron asociación significativa. Resultados: La presencia de obesidad se caracterizó por población que no consume frutas y verduras frecuentemente, sin acceso a cloacas, ni vivienda propia, y cuyos progenitores tienen trabajo informal o son desempleados. Conclusiones: Se observaron características diferenciales del ambiente según presencia de obesidad. Este estudio incorpora una nueva perspectiva desde la cual comprender la salud infantil y adolescente. Introdução: Entendemos saúde como um processo que leva em conta o ser humano em seu espaço vital e é influenciado por condições que ocorrem em todos os níveis de organização. A Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) considera a Saúde Ambiental Infantil como um dos principais desafios de saúde do século XXI. Objetivo: Analisar os determinantes ambientais da obesidade em crianças e adolescentes que frequentam dois centros de cuidados primários da saúde (CS) em Córdoba, Argentina, durante o período 2019-2022. Metodologia: Estudo observacional e transversal. Foram avaliados o ambiente físico, social e nutricional e o estado nutricional de 382 meninos e meninas e adolescentes que frequentam dois CS em Córdoba. Foi realizada análise de correspondência múltipla para caracterizar agrupamentos com base nas modalidades de resposta à presença de obesidade e condições ambientais (disponibilidade de redes de esgotos, tipo de moradia, tipo de combustível para cozinhar, população migrante, bairro de residência, trabalho dos pais, consumo de frutas e hortaliças), que apresentou associação significativa. Resultados: A presença de obesidade foi caracterizada por uma população que não consome frutas e verduras com frequência, sem acesso a esgoto ou moradia própria e cujos pais têm trabalho informal ou estão desempregados. Conclusões: Foram observadas características diferenciais do ambiente de acordo com a presença de obesidade. Este estudo incorpora uma nova perspectiva a partir da qual seja possível compreender a saúde da criança e do adolescente. Escuela de Salud Pública y Ambiente. Fac. Cs.
