Resumo
O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar os fatores de risco relacionados às doenças cardiovasculares, em idosos diabéticos do tipo 2 e verificar a associação desses fatores, segundo sexo e faixa etária. O estudo observacional foi feito com 100 idosos atendidos no Centro Regional de Reabilitação de Araraquara (CRRA), São Paulo, Brasil, de março a dezembro de 2004. O estudo incluiu as características sociodemográficas da população. A idade média da população de estudo foi 71 anos, sendo a maioria formada por indivíduos casados, do sexo feminino, brancos e economicamente inativos. Cerca de 59% dos indivíduos possuíam menos de sete anos de estudo, 38% tinham renda familiar per capita de até um salário mínimo, caracterizando uma população de baixa renda e baixa escolaridade. Quanto aos hábitos e estilo de vida, predominaram os indivíduos que mantinham dietas adequadas, sedentários, não fumantes e não etilistas. Prevaleceram os antecedentes pessoais de hipertensão arterial, obesidade e hipercolesterolemia e os antecedentes familiares foram diabetes, doenças cardiovasculares e hipertensão arterial. A população apresentou, 42% de sobrepeso e 38% de obesidade classe I e II e valores inadequados de circunferência de cintura (71%) e de razão cintura-quadril (84%). Em relação aos fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares, mais da metade eram hipertensos, possuíam hipercolesterolemia, hipertrigliceremia, tinham valores elevados de LDL-colesterol (84%) e 59% níveis de HDLcolesterol, abaixo dos valores de referência. A maioria apresentou valores elevados de glicemia de jejum, hemoglobina glicada, fibrinogênio e foram categorizados como de risco cardiovascular. Os resultados, portanto, mostraram uma freqüência elevada de fatores de risco cardiovasculares na população estudada, com diferenças segundo o sexo e a idade.
The aim of this study was to analyze the risk factors related to the cardiovascular illnesses in diabetic type 2 elderly people and to verify the association of these factors according to sex and age group. An observational study was carried out on 100 elderly persons, attended at the Rehabilitation Center of Araraquara (CRRA), São Paulo, Brazil, from march to december 2004. The social demographic characteristics of the population was also studied. The average age of the study population was 71 years, the majority married, feminine, white and economically inactive. About 59% of them had less than 7 years of study, 38% held a minimum wage per capita familiar income, characterizing a population of low income and of low educational level. As to the habits and style of life, the individuals had an adjusted diet, were sedentary, non smoking and non alcoholics. The personal antecedents were arterial hypertension, obesity and hypercholesterolemia and the familiar antecedents were diabetes, cardiovascular illnesses and arterial hypertension. The population not only presented 42% of overweight and 38% of obesity class I and II, but also inadequate values of circumference of waist (71%) and waist-to-hip ratio (84%). In relation to the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases, it was observed that more than half had hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, hypertriglyceridaemia. 84% had high values of LDL-cholesterol and 59% HDL-cholesterol levels below the values of reference. The majority presented high levels of fasting glycemia, glycohemoglobin, fibrinogen and was categorized as of cardiovascular risk. The results showed the high frequency of cardiovascular risk factors in the studied population, with differences according to sex and the age.
