Cardiometabolic risk among schoolchildren born at term and premature

Objective: To assess the occurrence of cardiometabolic risk (RCmet) in children aged 5 to 9 years old born premature compared those at term. Methodology: Cross-sectional study which enrolled urban municipal schools were evaluated. They divided into two groups: low income and middle income, considering that economic status is one social determinants health. The total sample was 132 children, classified according their gestational age birth a group schoolchildren term (GST) prematurely (GSP), assessed for weight, height, waist circumference (WC), blood pressure (BP), capillary glucose (CBG), cholesterol (TC) triglycerides (TG). RCmet also analyzed both groups WC >90th percentile >50th percentile, associated with least following criteria: TC ≥70 mg/dL; TG ≥85 CBG ≥126 Systolic/diastolic BP ≥P90 mmHg, height ratio (WCHR). Results: Among GST >P90, 10% presented RCmet, while, >P50, 23.44% this risk. In GSP, there no participants above P90; 22.22% had RCmet. Comparing groups, statistically significant difference. It found 90.15% evaluations, an equivalent classification between HR methods percentile. Conclusions: evidenced however, influence on
