    Background Data on the validity of tools for sleep apnea risk detection in rotating shift workers are limited. The aim was to evaluate the Berlin questionnaire (BQ) and the Neck, Obesity, Snoring, Age, Sex (NoSAS) score for the detection of obstructive sleep apnea risk in shift workers. Methods This cross-sectional study included male rotating shift workers, drivers of heavy of-road machinery in an iron ore extraction company. Polysomnography was the gold standard for evaluation. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) was defned as an apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) of≥5 events/h. The Shapiro–Wilk test verifed the data distribution and comparative analysis was conducted using the chi-square analyses and U Mann–Whitney with Bonferroni correction. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, sensitivity, specifcity, positive and negative predictive values, positive and negative likelihood ratios, and accuracy were used for evaluate BQ and NoSAS with OSA diagnosis by polysomnograph. Results Among 119 male shift workers, ages 24 to 57 years, polysomnography showed that 84% had obstructive sleep apnea (AHI≥5), and 46% had moderate to severe sleep apnea (AHI≥15). For AHI≥5, the NoSAS score had higher sensitivity and specifcity than the BQ. For AHI≥15 and AHI≥30, the NoSAS score had a sensitivity higher than 70% while BQ was 60% and 58%, respectively. The accuracy of the NoSAS score was higher for all OSA criteria than that of BQ. Conclusion In rotating shift workers, drivers of heavy of-road machinery, the NoSAS score showed higher accuracy in identifying patients at risk for sleep apnea than the BQ.

    Background: In view of the costly methods currently available for the assessment of body adiposity, anthropometric obesity indicators have proven effective in predicting cardiovascular risk. Objective: To investigate the discriminatory power of body fat indicators for cardiovascular risk screening among shift workers. Methods: Cross-sectional study with male employees of an iron ore extraction company. The predictive power of body fat indicators relative to cardiovascular risk was analyzed based on the Framingham risk score and metabolic syndrome by means of receiver operating characteristic curves, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and Youden’s index. Results: The prevalence of cardiovascular risk was 14.2% in the metabolic syndrome risk model. According to the Framingham score, 95.0%, 4.1% and 0.9% of the participants exhibited low, moderate and high risk, respectively. All the analyzed body fat indicators exhibited satisfactory discriminatory power for the tested cardiovascular risk models. Conclusion: Waist-height ratio exhibited the highest ability to predict cardiometabolic risk in both risk models.

    (2019) Diniz, Amanda Popolino; Fajardo, Virgínia Capistrano; Freitas, Silvia Nascimento de; Oliveira, Fernando Luiz Pereira de; Nascimento Neto, Raimundo Marques do; Pimenta, Fausto Aloísio Pedrosa; Coelho, George Luiz Lins Machado
    Objective: to verify the discriminatory power of adiposity indicators in the prediction of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in shift workers. Methods: a crosssectional study carried out in an iron ore extraction company, in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Anthropometric data were collected and polysomnography (PSG) was performed in 118 male shift workers who owned at least one overall risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Results: the OSA prevalence in the sample was 84.7%. Among the adiposity indicators used to predict OSA (≥ 5 events/hour), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), and total body fat (TBF) showed sensitivity values higher than 70%. Visceral fat (VF), neck circumference (NC), and neck-to-height ratio (NHtR) were the most effective in correctly identifying workers without OSA (specificity values higher than 70%). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for WC and NHtR were greater than 0.7, which indicated the test was effective in discriminating individuals with OSA. Conclusions: alterations in abdomen and neck adiposity indicators have a significant relationship with the presence of OSA and showed effectiveness as a screening method for PSG. WC and NHtR are considered good indicators for OSA prediction.

    (2019) Rocha, Débora de Oliveira Antunes; Barbosa, Polyana Almeida; Silveira, Gabriel Pessoa Herthel; Martins, Bianca Hellen Sousa; Fajardo, Virgínia Capistrano; Coelho, George Luiz Lins Machado; Nascimento Neto, Raimundo Marques do; Freitas, Silvia Nascimento de; Oliveira, Fernando Luiz Pereira de; Pimenta, Fausto Aloísio Pedrosa
    Objetivo: Demonstrar a prevalência da hipovitaminose D em trabalhadores de turno de uma empresa de mineração e verificar se, nesta população, há correlação entre as variáveis glicêmicas (hemoglobina glicada e glicemia de jejum) e os níveis séricos de vitamina D. Métodos: Estudo transversal observacional realizado por 2 anos consecutivos com trabalhadores de turno. No primeiro ano, foram analisados os níveis séricos de vitamina D (25(OH)D) e glicemia de jejum, excluindo indivíduos que realizavam tratamento para controle glicêmico, suplementação de vitamina D e/ou participantes do sexo feminino, totalizando 548 trabalhadores. No ano seguinte, foram selecionados da amostra anterior apenas os indivíduos que apresentaram hipovitaminose D (25(OH) D<30ng/mL). Nestes, foram analisados os níveis de 25(OH)D, glicemia de jejum e hemoglobina glicada. Foram aplicados o teste de normalidade Kolmogorov-Smirnov e a correlação de Spearman. Resultados: A idade média dos participantes foi de 38,2 anos. No primeiro ano, 80,8% dos trabalhadores apresentaram hipovitaminose D e 10,8% apresentavam glicemia de jejum fora dos níveis de normalidade. Dentre a amostra do ano seguinte, 81,1% permaneceram com hipovitaminose D, 18,2% apresentaram glicemia de jejum fora dos níveis de normalidade e 15,8% apresentaramhemoglobina glicada alterada. Não foram encontradas correlações significativas entre a 25(OH)D e a glicemia de jejum e hemoglobina glicada. Conclusão: Foi observada alta prevalência de hipovitaminose nos trabalhadores de turno. Diferentemente de outros estudos, não foram encontradas correlações significativas entre as variáveis glicêmicas e a concentração sérica da vitamina D.

    (2019) Pimenta, Fausto Aloísio Pedrosa; Alves, Rafaella Lemos; Oliveira, Fernando Luiz Pereira de; Nascimento Neto, Raimundo Marques do; Coelho, George Luiz Lins Machado; Freitas, Silvia Nascimento de
    Objetivo: identificar a percepção dos trabalhadores de turnos alternantes de uma mineradora da região dos Inconfidentes, Minas Gerais, sobre sua qualidade de vida (QV) e analisar sua associação com indicadores de excesso de adiposidade corporal. Métodos: estudo transversal com 437 trabalhadores em turnos alternantes com um ou mais fatores de risco cardiovascular. Dados sociodemográficos e clínicos foram analisados. A QV foi avaliada com o questionário SF-36 e a adiposidade corporal estimada a partir das medidas antropométricas e de composição corporal. Resultados: a pontuação para os domínios da QV variou de 67 a 100, no entanto, o aumento de gordura corporal apresentou correlação negativa com os domínios saúde geral, vitalidade e capacidade funcional. Foi observada, por análise de cluster, a formação de dois agrupamentos, um composto pelos domínios da QV e o outro constituído pelos indicadores de composição corporal. Não foi identificada associação entre os escores estimados de QV dos trabalhadores de turno e o tempo de trabalho. Conclusão: o declínio da QV apresentou associação com o excesso de adiposidade corporal. Recomenda-se a adoção de medidas visando reduzir o excesso de adiposidade corporal e melhorar a qualidade de vida dos trabalhadores em turno alternante da mineração.

    Objective: The present clinical study aims to describe protocol to evaluate the effects of vitamin D3 supplementation on the cardiovascular risk factors in a population of rotating shift workers. Design: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group clinical trial testing 2 oral dosages of cholecalciferol (14,000 IU and 28,000 IU per week) for 12 months. Setting: The primary outcome for evaluation is an 18% reduction in hypertriglyceridemia (≥150mg/dL) between pre and postintervention measurements. Baseline characteristics of the study population will be summarized separately within each randomized group, and will use tests for continuous and categorical variables. For all tests, a P<.05 will be considered significant. The analysis of primary and secondary outcomes will use an intention-to-treat population and a per-protocol population. The primary and secondary outcomes will be compared separately between each treatment group and placebo, using binary logistic regression or regressão de Poisson for proportions (for binary outcomes) and using linear regression for differences in means (for continuous endpoints), with 95% confidence intervals. Participants: Rotating shift workers, adults aged between 18 and 60 years, with hypovitaminosis D and alterations in at least 1 of the following parameters: fasting glucose, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, blood pressure, and waist circumference. Conclusion: This clinical trial aims to contribute to the gap in knowledge about the potential, dose, and time of vitamin D supplementation to generate beneficial effects on triglycerides in a population at increased risk for hypertriglyceridemia and vitamin D deficiency.

    Background: Studies suggest that there is a strong association between low vitamin D levels and cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its risk factors (RFs). Hypovitaminosis D (25(OH)D < 30 ng/mL or 75 nmol/L) is a recent public health problem that has reached different populations. The objective of the study was to investigate whether hypovitaminosis D is an additional mechanism to explain the disturbances in the lipid profile as well as the excess of abdominal fat presented by alternating shift workers of a mining company in the region of Inconfidentes, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a sample of 391 adult males, aged 20 - 57 years old and working alternating shifts, who had at least one risk criterion for CVD. Demographic, behavioral, clinical, and anthropometric and body composition variables were obtained. A blood sample was drawn for determining 25(OH) D, parathyroid hormone intact molecule, lipid profile, blood glucose, insulin, C-reactive protein, and adipokines. Results: The average age of the 391 study participants was 36.1 ± 7.3 years. The percentage of hypovitaminosis D and dyslipidemia was 73% and 74.2%, respectively. Excess visceral fat was significant in the hypovitaminosis D group, with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.4 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.1 - 5.2). Dyslipidemia showed 25(OH)D levels significantly lower (OR: 2.7, 95% CI: 1.6 - 4.3) than in individuals with normal levels of cholesterol and fractions, and triglycerides. After adjusted the analysis by age and seasonality, the vitamin levels had a significant inverse association and dose-dependent with lowdensity lipoprotein (OR: 5.9), triglycerides (OR: 2.3) and visceral fat area (OR: 2.4). Conclusion: Hypovitaminosis D and dyslipidemia were found in the majority of our mining company shift workers. Furthermore, excess visceral adiposity, hypertriglyceridemia and high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels are strong predictors of hypovitaminosis D.

    Ability of body mass index to predict abnormal waist circumference : receiving operating characteristics analysis.
    (2013) Lauria, Márcio Weissheimer; Moreira, Lívia Maria Pinheiro; Coelho, George Luiz Lins Machado; Nascimento Neto, Raimundo Marques do; Soares, Maria Marta Sarquis; Ramos, Adauto Versiani
    Body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) are the most used anthropometric measures to identify obesity. While BMI is considered to be a simple and accurate estimate of general adiposity, WC is an alternative surrogate measure of visceral obesity. However, WC is subject to significant inter-examiner variation. The aim of the present study was to correlate BMI and WC measures in a group of Brazilian adults to determine the most accurate BMI values for predicting abnormal WC.
