ABSTRACT
abstract This study aimed to develop and validate the first mathematical models, based on anthropometric properties, to estimate fat mass (FM) in a heterogeneous sample of female adolescents. A cross-sectional and quantitative study conducted with 196 individuals aged 12 to 17 years from the metropolitan region of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil. The participants were randomly divided into two groups regression sample (n = 169) and validation sample (n = 27). Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used as the reference method to determine body fat in relative and absolute values. Stature, body mass, waist girth and triceps, subscapular, biceps, iliac crest, abdominal, front thigh and medial calf skinfold thickness were defined as independent variables and measured according to an international technical protocol. Statistical analyzes used the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression model, paired t test and Pearson correlation. Four multivariate mathematical models with high determination coefficients (R2 ≥90%) and low estimated standard errors (SEE = ≤2.02 kg) were developed. Model 4 stands out for its low number of independent variables and significant statistical performance (R2 = 90%; SEE = 1.92 kg). It is concluded that the four mathematical models developed are valid for estimating FM in female adolescents in southern Brazil.
RESUMO
resumo Este estudo teve como objetivo desenvolver e validar os primeiros modelos matemáticos, baseados em propriedades antropométricas, para estimar a massa gorda (MG) em uma amostra heterogênea de adolescentes do sexo feminino. Estudo transversal e quantitativo conduzido com 196 indivíduos de 12 a 17 anos da região metropolitana de Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil. Os participantes foram divididos aleatoriamente em dois grupos amostra de regressão (n = 169) e amostra de validação (n = 27). A absorciometria de raios X de dupla energia (DXA) foi usada como método de referência para determinar a gordura corporal em valores relativos e absolutos. A estatura, a massa corporal, o perímetro da cintura e a espessura das dobras cutâneas do tríceps, subescapular, bíceps, crista ilíaca, abdominal, coxa anterior e panturrilha medial foram definidas como variáveis independentes e mensuradas de acordo com um protocolo técnico internacional. As análises estatísticas utilizaram modelo de regressão Ordinary Least Square (OLS), teste t pareado e correlação de Pearson. Foram desenvolvidos quatro modelos matemáticos multivariados com altos coeficientes de determinação (R2 ≥90%) e baixos erros padrão estimados (SEE = ≤2,02 kg). O modelo 4 destaca-se pelo baixo número de variáveis independentes e desempenho estatístico significativo (R2 = 90%; SEE = 1,92 kg). Conclui-se que os quatro modelos matemáticos desenvolvidos são válidos para estimar a MG em adolescentes do sexo feminino do sul do Brasil
