Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective To conduct an integrative review in order to understand the repercussions of the social stigma of overweight on the health of adults and adolescents. Methods The international protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis studies PRISMA was adopted to guide the writing of this review. The databases used were PubMed, Psycinfo, SciELO, Medline, Lilacs and Pepsic, considering studies published in the period from 2000 to 2020. Sixty-seven (67) articles were analyzed, and 4 categories emerged: repercussions on physical well-being; repercussions on social well-being; repercussions on mental well-being; and mixed category (physical and psychological impact). Results In the vast majority of studies analyzed, weight stigma had a negative impact on the different spheres that make up the health construct, that is, the physical, social and mental spheres. Conclusions The consequences of weight stigma are a source of intense suffering, with an impact that reduces the quality of life of individuals who experience stigmatization, involving physical, emotional and social aspects.

体重耻辱与健康——对青少年和成人健康的影响：文献综述

摘要目的对超重的社会污名对成人和青少年健康的影响进行综合评价。方法采用国际系统综述和荟萃分析研究方案PRISMA来指导本综述的写作。考虑到2000年至2020年期间发表的研究，使用的数据库为PubMed、Psycinfo、SciELO、Medline、Lilacs和Pepsic。对六十七（67）篇文章进行了分析，共分为四类：对身体健康的影响；对社会福利的影响；对心理健康的影响；以及混合类别（身体和心理影响）。结果在所分析的绝大多数研究中，体重污名对构成健康结构的不同领域，即身体、社会和心理领域产生了负面影响。结论体重污名化的后果是严重痛苦的根源，其影响降低了遭受污名化者的生活质量，涉及身体、情感和社会方面。
