Resumo: |
The aim of this study is to analyse the executive functioning of the frontal lobe in obese teenagers Veranópolis (RS), to prevention and health promotion in active aging. It’s a cross-sectional, descriptive analytic observational with the collection data and retrograde analysis. Schoolers between 16 and 18 years of public and private high school of Veranópolis (RS) were evaluated. The study group consisted of 20 teenagers obese and overweight, and body mass index (BMI) at or above the percentile 97. The control group consisted of 30 non-obese teenagers (eutrophics) with BMIs between percentiles three and 85 of the same population and were equivalent the first group by age and sex. Anthropometric data and demographic data were obtained of the database from the original project. The neuropsychological assessment data were obtained in the period in which adolescents underwent MRI in Inscer. The Frontal Systems Behavior Scale (FrSBe Scale) and the Beck Depression Scale (BDI) were used. Descriptive statistics were used in the demographic data of the sample and in the evaluation indicators. The t Test was used to compare the averages of the indicators between the groups and in the effect size. The option for independent samples was chosen because individuals were different between the study group and the control group, even though they were from the same veronense population. The Pearson correlation test found the relationship between indicators. The performance of executive functioning of obese teenagers differs from non-obese young people, because they have apathy, characterized by impairments in behavior which contributing to obesity. Anthropometric indicators BMI and abdominal circumference (AC) have a positive correlation with apathy. The evaluation of depressive symptoms didn’t showed significant difference between obese and non-obese teenagers. Obese adolescents tend to show higher levels of depressive symptoms than subjects with normal weight, considering the average points presented by those groups. Anthropometric indicators BMI and AC don’t correlate with depression symptoms and don’t influence the mood of obese young people. |
