Disbiose intestinal e nível de atividade física: um estudo com estudantes de Nutrição de um centro universitário no interior de Pernambuco

Introduction:At birth the gastrointestinal tract (TGI) is sterile,but soon after the first colonizations occur that will depend on several factors,among them: the type of delivery,breastfeeding, environment,and genetic characteristics.Several are the species of bactery that make up the microbiota.some of these are considered benefical and other harmful to the organismo. When there is an imbalancein the intestinal microbiota, gene rated by accumulation of mistrearment with intestinal function,na uncrease in the number of harmful bacteria occurs,generating a risk situation. When these changes have substantial interferencein intestinal integrity it gives up the name of intestinal dysbiosis.In this sense,the promotion of health andimprovement of quality of life, as the stimulus to physicalactivy is considered an important fator, since it is responsible for provoking a series of physiologival responses resulting from autonomic adaptations and hemody namic tests that will positively ingluence the TGI.To evaluate the relation ship between intestinal dysbiosis and the level of physical activity in nutrition students of a universtity center in the state of Pernambuco.This is a cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach by the research ethics committe of the Centetr for Health Sciences of the University Federal of Pernambuco CAEE No.:86166218.3.0000.5208; Involving 100 students regularly enrolled in the nutrition course of the Vitoria Academic center of the University Federal of Pernambuco.Demographic information (ange and gender) and socioeconomic class were collected through the Brazilian Association of Research Companies economic classification criterion questionnaire. The data regarding signs and symptoms were quantified by means of the Metabolic Screening Questionnaire (QRM) and for assessing the level of physical activiy, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used.Of the students evaluated 82% (n=82) were female.The prevalence of signsand symptoms of dybiosis was observed in 11% (n=11) of the universtiy students,who obtained a score ≥ 10, in the section of the gastrointestinal tract of the QRM, wich chacracterizes them with dysbiosis. Regarding the level of physical activity,79% (n=79) of the students were classified as active and 21% (n=21) inactive.There was a significant association between thee practice of physical activity and dysbiosis, since 92%(n=73) of the active individuals did not presente dysbiosis,already classified as inactive only 76% (n=16) did not presente dysbiosis (p= 0,035).The level of active physical activity, presente by mosto f the students of the nutrition couse evaluated, seemsto contribute as a protection for the presence of dysbiosis, with beneficial repercussions in the composition of the intestinal microbiota of University.
