ABSTRACT
Introduction: Atherogenics risk factors are present since early ages. The socio
economic condition (SEC) has been identified like an important aspect that seems
influence in the appearance of such risk factors.
Objective: To determine the association between the socio economic condition and
the persistence of some risk factors like overweight, abdominal obesity and
hypertension in an adolescent cohort.
Material and Methods: A longitudinal study of a cohort composed by 252
adolescent belonging to the Heroes del MoncadaUniversity Policlinic, Plaza
Municipality were assessed in two transversal different cuts with a period of time
lasting 4 years one to other. The nutritional condition variables, waist classification
and blood pressure classification were analyzed and the adolescent´s health
condition were measure determining by identified risk factors in each moment of
the study and its persistence thus as the socio economic influence to which was an
structural model adjusted.
Results: The health condition of the adolescent at time 1 was frequently associated
to the condition at time 2 (r=8.34), demonstrating the high persistence of study
risk factors. The socio economic condition, showed a very marginal importance on
the adolescent condition in each moment of the study.
Conclusions: Results alerts over the necessity to do preventive actions since early
ages and to continue this kind of studies to know the effect of socio economic
condition in our context.
