Abstract: This study aimed to test hypothesized effects of replacing sedentary behavior with moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, sleep, and different domains of physical activity by equivalent amounts on suggestive cognitive decline in an older adult population. This was a cross-sectional study including 473 older adults aged ≥ 60 years. Cognitive decline was assessed using the Mini-Mental Health Examination. Physical activity, its different domains and the time of exposure to sedentary behavior were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. For data analysis, two isotemporal substitution models were constructed using Poisson regression. The first model tested the effect of sleep time, sedentary behavior, and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity on cognitive decline. The second model was used to determine the effect of physical activity domains (leisure, work, transport, and home), sleep time, and sedentary behavior on cognitive decline. Physical activity during leisure time was protective against cognitive decline among all domains tested, replacing sedentary behavior, sleep, and transport. Conversely, substitution of the leisure domain for sedentary behavior, sleep, and transport was considered a risk factor for cognitive decline. Leisure time proved to be a strong protective factor in reducing the risk of cognitive decline, and it is necessary to encourage and stimulate public policies that include it.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Compared to young individuals, older adults participate more in sedentary behavior (SB) and less in physical activity (PA). These behaviors are associated with numerous adverse health factors. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to examine the hypothetical effects of substituting time spent sleeping, performing SB, and performing moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) on depressive symptomatology in older adults. DESIGN AND SETTING: An analytical cross-sectional study employing exploratory survey methods was conducted in the city of Alcobaça in the state of Bahia, Brazil METHODS: The study included 473 older adults who answered a structured questionnaire during an interview. Exposure time to SB and PA level were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and depressive symptoms were analyzed using the short version of the Geriatric Depression Scale. An isotemporal replacement model was used to evaluate the effects of different SB sessions on depressive symptomatology. RESULTS: An increase in the risk of depressive symptoms was observed when MVPA and sleep time were substituted for the same SB time at all times tested, with maximum values of 40% and 20%, respectively. Opposite substitution of MVPA and sleep time increments reduced the risk of depressive symptomatology by 28% and 17%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study indicate that replacing SB with the same amount of sleep or MVPA may reduce depressive symptoms. The longer the reallocation time, the greater are the benefits. BACKGROUND individuals (SB PA. .

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Frailty syndrome is associated with various physical, cognitive, social, economic, and environmental factors. Although frailty syndrome occurs progressively with age, prevention and treatment are possible. Reducing or eliminating risks and increasing protective factors may be potential strategies for reducing the prevalence of injuries related to frailty. One of the most effective actions is to decrease the time spent in sedentary behavior (SB) by increasing regular physical activity (PA). OBJECTIVE: To examine the hypothetical effect of substitution of the time spent in sleep or SB with an equivalent time spent performing moderate or vigorous PA on frailty syndrome in the older population. DESIGN AND SETTING: An analytical cross-sectional study conducted using exploratory methods of survey, carried out in Alcobaça city, Bahia, Brazil. METHODS: A total of 456 older adults of both sexes, aged ≥ 60 years, participated in this study. Frailty syndrome was identified according to the criteria of the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures. PA and SB were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and sleep was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. The effects of time substitution on these behaviors were verified using Poisson regression. RESULTS: The replacement of 60 min/day of SB (prevalence ratio, PR = 0.52; 95% confidence interval, CI: 0.28–0.96) or sleep (PR = 0.52; 95% CI: 0.27–0.98) with 60 min/day of moderate PA (MPA) was associated with a 48% reduction in the prevalence of frailty syndrome. CONCLUSIONS: Replacing the time spent sitting or sleeping with the same amount of MPA time may reduce frailty; the longer the duration of time spent in the substitution of sleep or SB with MPA, the greater the benefits.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Dynapenia is characterized by mobility limitations in the older population when combined with aggravating behavioral factors that can increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hypothetical effects of reallocation of time spent on sedentary behavior (SB), moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and sleep on dynapenia in older adults. DESIGN AND SETTING: A prospective cohort study using exploratory surveys in Alcobaça City, Bahia State, Brazil. METHODS: In total, 176 older adults (≥ 60 years) of both sexes participated in this study. Dynapenia was assessed using the handgrip strength test with cutoff points of < 27 kg for men and < 16 kg for women. MVPA and SB were assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, and sleep was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. RESULTS: Effects on reallocation were found for the shortest times, such as 10 minutes (odds ratio (OR) 0.92; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.85–0.99); substituting MVPA with SB increased the chances of dynapenia by 58.0% (95% CI: 1.01–2.49). Analyzing the substitution of 60 minutes/day of SB with 60 minutes/day of MVPA revealed a protective effect, with a lower OR for dynapenia of 37.0% (OR 0.63; 95% CI: 0.40–0.99). The reallocation of sleep time did not significantly reduce dynapenia. CONCLUSIONS: Substituting the time spent sitting with the same amount of time spent on MVPA can reduce dynapenia, and a longer reallocation time confers greater health benefits in older adults.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of physical activity (PA) and sedentary behaviour (SB), in isolation and combination, on all-cause mortality in older adults. METHODS Prospective, population-based cohort study. The data were collected from first wave in 2015 and the follow-up continued until 2020. The sample consisted of 332 older adult people aged ≥ 60 years-old, out of which 59 died. The level of PA and SB was assessed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The older adults were divided into PA categorized as sufficiently active and insufficiently active and into high and low SB. We built four combinations of PA and SB. Also, we used the Cox proportional hazards regression with a 95% confidence interval with hazard ratio estimate so as to verify the mortality risks between PA, SB, and the combinations of PA and SB. RESULTS Insufficiently active individuals had higher risks of mortality compared to sufficiently active people. We observed no associations between SB and mortality separately; however, when evaluated in a combined way, insufficiently active individuals and with a high SB time had a higher chance of mortality compared to active individuals with a low SB time. CONCLUSION Our isolated analyses demonstrate that complying with PA recommendations reduces the risk of mortality; however, no association was found between the time of PA exposure with the time of SB. When analysing the combination, being physically inactive and with a long time of SB showed higher mortality rates, with SB being an enhancer of this risk. The results of this study show the interdependence of SB for PA performed at moderate to vigorous intensity. The understanding of this interrelation must be considered in the formulation of public health guidelines.

Abstract Aim: To examine the association between environmental and individual characteristics and utilization pattern of Outdoor Fitness Zones (OFZ) with the volume of utilization of these public spaces in Uberaba, Brazil. Methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study. Data collection was conducted using “in loco” interviews (three different days and times) and direct observation of nine OFZ. Poisson regression analysis was used to estimate prevalence ratios using the volume of utilization higher than 90 min per week as the dependent variable and a collection of socio-demographic, environmental, utilization pattern, and OFZ characteristics as independent variables. Results: Adjusted analysis revealed that volume of utilization higher than 90 min per week of OFZ was associated with a higher prevalence ratio among users utilizing such spaces to meet friends sometimes (PR = 2.43; 1.21-4.90) and always (PR = 3.43; 1.61-7.34) compared to not meeting friends. A lower prevalence ratio was found in users who attend the OFZ only during the week or only weekend days (PR = 0.52; 0.37-0.73) compared to a user who attends both (week and weekends days). OFZ not providing a space for walking or jogging (PR = 0.48; 0.23-0.99) were also associated with a lower prevalence ratio of utilization higher than 90 min per week. Conclusions: The findings demonstrated that most individual and environmental characteristics and utilization patterns of the OFZ in the city of Uberaba, MG, Brazil, were not associated with the volume of utilization. Users who meet friends and attend both week and weekend days OFZ that features walking or running trails were associated with a higher volume of utilization.

RESUMO Objetivo Estimar a prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva em idosos brasileiros residentes na comunidade. Métodos Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática nas bases de dados Medline, SciELO, Web of Science, Scopus e CINAHL, sendo selecionados estudos com idosos brasileiros que identificaram a prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva. De forma independente, dois pesquisadores selecionaram os estudos, extraíram os dados e avaliaram a qualidade metodológica. A metanálise foi realizada para estimar a prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva usando um modelo de efeito aleatório. Resultados Foram identificados 176 artigos e 33 foram incluídos na revisão, que investigaram 34 prevalências, com um total de 39.431 idosos. A distribuição geográfica dos estudos indicou pesquisas em todas as regiões do Brasil. A versão curta da Escala de Depressão Geriátrica foi a mais utilizada. A prevalência estimada de sintomatologia depressiva foi de 21,0% (IC de 95%: 18,0-25,0; I2 = 98,3%). As análises de subgrupos revelaram elevada heterogeneidade em todas as categorias analisadas. A metarregressão não identificou as causas da heterogeneidade. Conclusão Apesar da heterogeneidade entre os estudos analisados, os resultados indicam a necessidade de estratégias de intervenção para reduzir a prevalência de sintomatologia depressiva.

ABSTRACT Objective To estimate the prevalence of depressive symptoms in Brazilian elderly people living in the community. Methods We searched the electronic databases Medline (PubMed), SciELO, Web of Science, Scopus and CINAHL, and also selected studies with Brazilian elderly people that identified the prevalence of depressive symptoms. Independently, two researchers selected the studies, extracted the data and assessed the methodological quality. The meta-analysis was performed to estimate the prevalence of depressive symptoms using a random effect model. Results We identified 176 articles and 33 were included in the review, which investigated 34 prevalences, with a total of 39,431 elderly people. The geographical distribution of the studies indicated researches in all regions of Brazil. The short version of the Geriatric Depression Scale was the most used. The estimated prevalence of depressive symptoms for Brazilian community-dwelling older adults was 21.0% (95% CI: 18.0-25.0, I2 = 98.3%). Subgroup analyzes revealed high heterogeneity in all categories analyzed. Meta-regression did not identify the causes of heterogeneity. Conclusion Despite the heterogeneity between the studies analyzed, the results indicate the need for intervention strategies to reduce the prevalence of depressive symptoms.

Resumo A insatisfação com a imagem corporal pode favorecer o surgimento de transtornos, como a anorexia e bulimia. Objetivou-se comparar as prevalências de insatisfação com a imagem corporal entre dois inquéritos e analisar os fatores sociodemográficos e de vínculo com a universidade associados à insatisfação por excesso e por magreza. Este estudo (inquéritos transversais) foi realizado com amostras de 1.085 e 1.041 universitários, nos anos de 2012 e 2014, respectivamente. A insatisfação com imagem corporal por excesso e por magreza foram as variáveis dependentes. As variáveis sociodemográficas (sexo, idade e situação conjugal) e de vínculo com a universidade (período de estudo, tempo de universidade e áreas de estudo) foram as variáveis independentes. As comparações entre os inquéritos foram realizadas pelo teste Qui-quadrado e a associação entre as variáveis pelo Odds Ratio (OR). A prevalência de insatisfação por excesso aumentou entre os inquéritos em universitários do sexo masculino. Em 2012, os universitários mais jovens apresentaram menores chances de insatisfação por excesso e os homens maiores chances de insatisfação por magreza (OR: 2,06; IC95%: 1,50–2,84). Em 2014, os homens, os mais jovens, aqueles sem parceiro, do 2º ano de exposição à universidade e da área das Ciências da Saúde (OR: 0,49; IC95%: 0,25–0,97) apresentaram menores chances de insatisfação por excesso. As prevalências de insatisfação por excesso, entre os inquéritos, foram maiores em homens, e associados com menores chances de insatisfação por excesso, em ambos os inquéritos, os universitários mais jovens.

Abstract Body image dissatisfaction may favor the onset of disorders such as anorexia and bulimia. The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of body image dissatisfaction between two surveys and to assess sociodemographic factors and link with university associated with body image dissatisfaction due to overweight and thinness. Two cross-sectional studies were carried out with samples of 1,085 and 1,041 public higher education institution students in years 2012 and 2014, respectively. The body silhouette scales measured body image dissatisfaction due to overweight and thinness. Sociodemographic variables (sex, age and marital status) and link with the university (study shift, university time and study areas) were the independent variables. Comparisons between surveys were performed using the Chi-square test and the association between variables by Odds Ratio (OR). There was an increase in the prevalence of body image dissatisfaction in students of the Engineering area between surveys. In 2012, younger presented lower chances of dissatisfaction due to overweight and the males higher chances of dissatisfaction due to thinness (OR: 2.06; 95%CI: 1.50–2.84). In 2014, males, younger, without partner, enrolled in the 2nd year of university and of the Health Sciences area (OR: 0.49; CI95%: 0.25–0.97) presented lowers chances of presenting dissatisfaction due to overweight. The prevalence of body image dissatisfaction due to overweight between surveys is higher in men and was associated with lower chances of dissatisfaction due to overweight in both surveys and in younger students.

O objetivo desse estudo foi analisar a produção de artigos sobre comportamentos sedentários em idosos. Trata-se de uma revisão sistemática a partir da base de dados Pubmed. Os descritores utilizados foram “sedentary behavior” e “sitting time” combinados com elderly, older e aging. Foram incluídos artigos originais completos disponíveis até dezembro de 2013, que apresentassem medida do comportamento sedentário. Considerou-se o tipo de inquérito e delineamento, local da coleta dos dados, instrumentos, definição operacional e ponto de corte para comportamento sedentário. Foram encontrados 559 artigos, e desses 130 foram excluídos por duplicação, resultando em 429, desses 39 atenderam os critérios de inclusão estabelecidos. Os artigos foram publicados entre 2003 a 2013. Acelerômetro e questionário foram os instrumentos mais pronunciados para medida do comportamento sedentário nos artigos analisados. Foram identificadas lacunas na produção científica em relação aos pontos de corte para definir a quantidade de tempo sentado que representa risco à saúde das pessoas idosas, definição operacional universal, bem como falta de padronização dos instrumentos. Sugerem-se mais estudos relacionados com essa temática a fim de reduzir as lacunas existentes.

The aim of this study was to analyze the production of articles on sedentary behaviors in the elderly. This is a systematic review from the Pubmed database. The descriptors used were “sedentary behavior” and “sitting time” combined with elderly, older and aging. We included original articles available until December 2013, to submit measure of sedentary behavior. We considered the type of survey and design, instruments, operational definition and cutoff for sedentary behavior. The initial electronic searches resulted in 559 manuscripts, and of these 130 were excluded for duplication, resulting in 429 manuscripts. The process of analysis of the studies involved reading titles, abstracts and full texts. After all these phases, 39 manuscripts met the inclusion criteria of the review. The articles were published between 2003 and 2013. Accelerometer and questionnaire were instruments more pronounced for the measurement of sedentary behavior in the analyzed articles. We identified gaps in scientific production in relation to the cutoff points to define the amount of time sitting that poses a risk to the health of the elderly, operational definition universal, as well as lack of standardization of instruments. We suggest further studies related to this theme in order to reduce the gaps.

Resumo Em meados do século passado, transformações na economia e sociedade brasileira somaram-se para desencadear uma rápida transição demográfica, que se caracterizou pelo aumento de idosos. Assim, presenciou-se um envelhecimento populacional, que foi acompanhado pelo aumento da incidência de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis. Alguns fatores de risco estão bem estabelecidos para o desenvolvimento das doenças crônicas não transmissíveis, como excesso de peso, consumo de tabaco e álcool, alimentação inadequada e inatividade física. Adicionalmente, o comportamento sedentário mostrou-se relacionado a importantes efeitos deletérios à saúde, como, por exemplo, diabetes mellitus tipo 2, obesidade e mortalidade.O estudo teve como objetivo investigar a associação entre tempo sentado e diabetes mellitus em idosos. Estudo transversal, realizado em 24 municípios integrantes da Superintendência Regional de Saúde de Uberaba, MG. Os indivíduos selecionados responderam um questionário estruturado e foram submetidos à avaliação antropométrica. Foram analisados 3.265 idosos. A prevalência de diabetes mellitus foi de 20,0% e a mediana de tempo sentado de 240,00 (P25º=137,14 e P75º=330,00) minutos/dia. A análise de regressão logística ajustada demonstrou que o tempo sentado superior a 330,00 minutos/dia associou-se positivamente com a diabetes mellitus (OR=1,329; IC95%: 1,040-1,700). Pode-se concluir que os idosos que ficam sentados por longos períodos diariamente apresentam maior chance de ter diabetes mellitus quando comparados com aqueles que ficam sentados por menor tempo.

Abstract By the middle of the last century, changes in the Brazilian economy and society triggered a rapid demographic transition characterized by an increased number of older adults in the population. Thus, Brazil has witnessed population aging, which was accompanied by an increased incidence of non-communicable chronic diseases. Some risk factors for the development of the chronic non-communicable diseases have been well established, such as overweight, tobacco and alcohol consumption, inadequate nutrition, and physical inactivity. Additionally, sedentary behavior has been related to significant deleterious effects on health, such as diabetes mellitus type 2, obesity and mortality. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between sitting time and diabetes mellitus in older adults. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 24 municipalities in the Regional Health Superintendence of Uberaba, MG. Selected subjects answered a structured questionnaire and underwent anthropometric assessment. A total of 3,265 elderly subjects, with a median time spent sitting of 240.00 (P25th=137.14 and P75th=330.00) minutes/day and a 20.0% prevalence of diabetes mellitus were detected. Adjusted logistic regression analysis showed that a sitting time of more than 330.00 minutes/day was positively associated with diabetes mellitus (OR=1.351, 95%CI: 1.057-1.729). It was concluded that older adults who daily sit for long periods of time have higher chances of having diabetes compared to those who sit for less time.

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and factors associated with functional disability in the elderly. The cross-sectional design was used with a sample of 624 individuals, between 60 and 96 years of age. In the assessment of the elderly interviews and physical performance tests were used. In the inferential data analysis, the Poisson regression was used, p≤0.05. The prevalence of disability was 17.6% for Basic Activities of Daily Living and 46.3% for Instrumental Activities of Daily Living. Functional disability for Basic Activities of Daily Living was associated with increasing age, alcohol consumption, depressive symptoms and frailty; the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living were associated with increasing age, illiteracy, multigenerational family arrangement, hospitalization and fragility. The variables that remained in the explanatory model for the decline of functional capacity should be emphasized in proposals for public policies to promote the health of the elderly.

El objetivo fue estimar la prevalencia y los factores asociados a la discapacidad. Se utilizó diseño transversal, con muestra de 624 individuos de edades comprendidas entre 60 a 96 años. En la evaluación fueron utilizados entrevista y pruebas de rendimiento físico. En análisis de datos inferencial se utilizó regresión de Poisson, p≤0,05. La prevalencia de discapacidad fue 17,6% para las Actividades Básicas de la Vida Diaria y 46,3% en las actividades instrumentales de la vida diaria. La incapacidad funcional para Actividades Básicas de la Vida Diaria se asoció con la edad, consumo de alcohol, síntomas depresivos y fragilidad; actividades instrumentales de la vida diaria se asociaron con la edad, analfabetismo, disposición de la familia multigeneracional, hospitalización y fragilidad. Las variables que se mantuvieron en el modelo explicativo de la disminución de la capacidad funcional deben hacerse hincapié en la elaboración de políticas públicas para promover la salud de los ancianos.

O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar a prevalência e os fatores associados à incapacidade funcional em idosos. O delineamento transversal foi empregado com amostra de 624 indivíduos com idade entre 60 e 96 anos. Na avaliação dos idosos, foram utilizados entrevista e testes de desempenho físico. Na análise inferencial dos dados, foi utilizada a regressão de Poisson, p≤0,05. A prevalência de incapacidade funcional foi de 17,6% para Atividades Básicas da Vida Diária e 46,3% nas Atividades Instrumentais da Vida Diária. A incapacidade funcional para Atividades Básicas da Vida Diária associou-se ao aumento da idade, consumo de bebidas alcoólicas, sintomatologia depressiva e fragilidade; as Atividades Instrumentais da Vida Diária foram associadas ao avanço da idade, analfabetismo, arranjo familiar multigeracional, hospitalização e fragilidade. As variáveis que permaneceram no modelo explicativo para o declínio da capacidade funcional devem ser enfatizadas na proposição de políticas públicas de promoção à saúde de idosos.

The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence and factors associated with functional disability in the elderly. The cross-sectional design was used with a sample of 624 individuals, between 60 and 96 years of age. In the assessment of the elderly interviews and physical performance tests were used. In the inferential data analysis, the Poisson regression was used, p≤0.05. The prevalence of disability was 17.6% for Basic Activities of Daily Living and 46.3% for Instrumental Activities of Daily Living. Functional disability for Basic Activities of Daily Living was associated with increasing age, alcohol consumption, depressive symptoms and frailty; the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living were associated with increasing age, illiteracy, multigenerational family arrangement, hospitalization and fragility. The variables that remained in the explanatory model for the decline of functional capacity should be emphasized in proposals for public policies to promote the health of the elderly.
