Resumen

Introducción: la depresión, la ansiedad, y el estado menopáusico parecen desempeñar un papel importante en la etiología de la obesidad, el sobrepeso y el aumento del perímetro de la cintura; variables que son importantes predictores del riesgo cardiometabólico. Dada esta asociación, nuestro objetivo es evaluar la relación entre el perímetro de cintura y los puntajes de ansiedad en un grupo de mujeres peri y posmenopáusicas.


Método: evaluamos a 329 participantes con una edad media de 52.4 años; 20.06% perimenopáusicas y 79.9% posmenopáusicas. Realizamos una evaluación tanto del estado reproductivo, con la clasificación del Taller de Etapas del Envejecimiento Reproductivo, como de la ansiedad, con el Inventario de Ansiedad Estado-Rasgo y medidas antropométricas. El análisis estadístico involucró análisis descriptivos usando chi-cuadrada y t-test. Las correlaciones bivariadas exploraron variables relacionadas con el perímetro de cintura, y finalmente un modelo logístico examinó la asociación entre el perímetro de la cintura y la ansiedad.


Resultados: observamos una correlación significativa entre el perímetro de cintura y la ansiedad de estado y ansiedad de rasgo. No observamos una correlación entre la ansiedad y el estado menopáusico, la terapia de reemplazo hormonal y la edad. Por cada punto de aumento en la puntuación de ansiedad de estado en la evaluación STAI, el riesgo de tener una cintura > 88 cm aumentó en un 4%.


Discusión y Conclusiones: los hallazgos sugieren que niveles altos de ansiedad durante la transición menopáusica están relacionados con un mayor perímetro de cintura. Estudios prospectivos con una muestra más grande podrían aclarar la naturaleza de esta asociación.
