Antropometria e perfil lipídico em mulheres com câncer de mama: um estudo caso-controle ; Anthropometry and lipid profile in women with breast cancer: a case-control study

Methods: We conducted a Objective: To assess body composition and lipid profile of women with and without breast cancer. Methods Objective case-control study matched by age, including 62 women, 31 being newly diagnosed with breast cancer and 31 with benign breast changes. Data were collected through direct interview, with recording of sociodemographic characteristics, body composition assessment by anthropometry, including skinfolds (DC) and circumference, bioelectrical impedance (BIA) and ultrasonography (USG), as well as lipid profile evaluation. Statistical analysis used: Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (normally distributed variables), “t” test, chi- Results: When square test for trend (Mann-Whitney U), chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test and Yates correction and “odds ratio”. Results compared with controls, women with breast cancer (cases) had lower height (1.56 m ± 5.68 versus 1.59 m ± 6.92), p <0.03; higher percentage of body fat, assessed by Bioelectric Impedance (39.87% ± 8.26 versus 36.00% ± 6.85), p <0.049; and higher triceps Conclusion: Women with breast cancer had skinfold thickness (27.55 mm ± 8.37 versus 22.81 ± 5.72 mm; p <0.01), respectively. Conclusion lower height, higher body fat percentage and higher triceps skinfold thickness. There was no difference in body mass index and waist circumference. There was no association between lipid profile and the occurrence of breast cancer. ; Objetivo Objetivo: avaliar a composição corporal e o perfil lipídico de mulheres com e sem câncer de mama. Métodos Métodos: estudo caso-controle pareado por idade, incluindo 62 mulheres, sendo 31 recém-diagnosticadas com câncer de mama e 31 com alterações mamárias benignas. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevista direta, com caracterização sociodemográfica, avaliação da composição corporal por antropometria, incluindo dobras cutâneas (DC) e circunferências, bioimpedância (BIA) e ultrassonografia (USG), além da avaliação do perfil lipídico. Utilizou-se na análise dos dados: Teste de Kolmogorov-smirnov ...
