Both demographic and socio-economic factors play parts in obesity causation. Few surveys have been conducted in Tanzania to determine the magnitude of obesity and its association with these risk factors. This study aimed at determining the prevalence of obesity and its associated risk factors among adults aged 18 &#8211; 65 years in Kinondoni municipality, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania from April 2007 to April 2008.<\/p>\n<p>METHODS: Random sampling of households was performed. Interviews and anthropometric measurement were carried out to eligible and consenting members of the selected households. Obesity was defined using Body Mass Index (BMI).<\/p>\n<p>RESULTS: Out of 1249 subjects recruited, 814 (65.2%) were females. The overall prevalence of obesity was 19.2% (240\/1249). However, obesity was significantly more prevalent in women (24.7%) than men (9%), p &lt; 0.001, among respondents with high socio-economic status (29.2%) as compared to those with medium (14.3%) and low socio-economic status (11.3%), p value for trend &lt; 0.001, and among respondents with light intensity activities (26.0%), p value for trend &lt; 0.001.<\/p>\n<p>CONCLUSION: This study revealed a higher prevalence of obesity among Kinondoni residents than previously reported in other parts of the country. Independent predictors of obesity in the population studied were increasing age, marriage and cohabitation, high SES, female sex and less vigorous physical activities<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","mots_cles":[],"class_list":["post-38906","resume","type-resume","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"adresse":"Department of internal medicine, Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences, P,O,Box 65001 Dar es Salaam Tanzania. mundibilinga@yahoo.com","annee":"2011","mois":"5","numero":"","page":"","auteurs":[{"ID":38904,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 01:45:00","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 00:45:00","post_content":"","post_title":"Shayo","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"shayo","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 01:45:00","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 00:45:00","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/shayo\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":38905,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-04 01:45:01","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-04 00:45:01","post_content":"","post_title":"Mugusi","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"mugusi","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-04 01:45:01","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-04 00:45:01","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/auteur\/mugusi\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"auteur_resume","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"sources":[{"ID":1292,"post_author":"0","post_date":"2018-12-03 15:58:04","post_date_gmt":"2018-12-03 14:58:04","post_content":"","post_title":"BMC PUBLIC HEALTH.","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"bmc-public-health","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2018-12-03 15:58:04","post_modified_gmt":"2018-12-03 14:58:04","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/fr\/source\/bmc-public-health\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"source","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.6 (Yoast SEO v23.6) -
