Abstract(s)
Objetivo: Este estudo pretendeu analisar longitudinalmente a prevalência e incidência da pré-obesidade e obesidade em crianças com idades compreendidas entre os 4 e os 9 anos de idade. As avaliações antropométricas foram estudadas num espaço temporal de 5 anos.
Métodos: Estudo longitudinal que decorreu entre o ano de 2009 e 2014, com uma amostra de 164 crianças do concelho de Bragança. Para a análise dos dados recorreu-se ao cálculo das taxas de incidência e prevalência de sobrepeso e obesidade em cada ano de avaliações.
Resultados: Denotou-se um aumento da prevalência da pré-obesidade e obesidade com o decorrer dos anos, durante o processo de industrialização e face a comportamentos sedentários.
Conclusões: O delineamento longitudinal misto foi crucial para a compreensão do desenvolvimento da adiposidade durante o crescimento, revelando os períodos em que existe maior probabilidade de se desenvolverem.

Methods: A longitudinal study that ran between the years 2009 and 2014, with a sample of 164 children from the county of Bragança. For the analysis of the data we used the calculation of incidence rates and prevalence of overweight and obesity in each year of evaluations. Results: There was an increase in the prevalence of pre-obesity and obesity over the years, during the industrialization process and in relation to sedentary behaviors. Conclusions: Mixed longitudinal design was crucial for understanding the development of adiposity during growth, revealing the times when it is most likely to develop.
