Abstract

Background

In Latin America is being lived a controversial epidemiologic situation with regard to the nutritional state of its inhabitants due to the coexistence of malnutrition and obesity. The purpose of this study is to carry out a reflexive analysis about that nutritional epidemiological superposition.

Method

A critical and discussion review has been made according to the main results observed by means of a descriptive cross-sectional bibliographic study.

Results

The 32 selected papers illustrate that Latin America is living a period of transition between the famine and the non- transmissible illness related to nutrition. Malnutrition persists with an increase of obesity registered in all the countries and affecting mainly women and children. Nutritional problems are determining a high morbility and they are one of the firsts mortality causes.

Conclusions

The articles studied are heterogeneous in methodology, field, time and objectives considered, although all of them decribe the evolution and magnitude of the problem in the different Latin American countries. There is not MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) descriptor to index properly the scientific production about nutricional transition.

拉丁美洲营养流行病学重叠

背景在拉丁美洲，由于营养不良和肥胖并存，其居民的营养状况在流行病学上存在争议。本研究的目的是对这种营养流行病学叠加进行反身性分析。方法根据描述性截面书目研究的主要结果，进行批判性和讨论性的回顾。结果32篇入选论文说明拉丁美洲正处于饥荒与营养相关非传染性疾病的过渡时期。营养不良仍然存在，所有国家的肥胖人数都有所增加，主要影响妇女和儿童。营养问题决定了高死亡率，是导致死亡的首要原因之一。研究的文章在方法论、领域、时间和考虑的目标上都是不同的，尽管它们都描述了问题在不同拉丁美洲国家的演变和严重程度。目前还没有MeSH(医学主题目)描述符来恰当地索引有关营养转化的科学成果。
