Objective. To analyze the association of total globalization and its different dimensions with overweight and obesity in 10 Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries between 1995 and 2013. Materials and methods. A sample of 848 405 women aged 20-49 was analyzed. Multiple logistic regression models were used, adjusting for individual- and country-level confounding factors. To evaluate nonlinearities, four levels were defined through quartiles and divided into four dummy variables. Results. Total globalization had a positive association with overweight and obesity. Three dimensions of globalization (economic, political and social) indicated an increase in overweight and obesity. Social globalization presented polynomial behaviour, whereas, in political and economic globalization, a concave relation was observed. Conclusion. The economic, political and social dimensions had a positive association with overweight and obesity. Resumen: Objetivo. Analizar la asociación entre la globalización total y sus diferentes dimensiones con el sobrepeso y la obesidad en 10 países de América Latina y el Caribe (ALC) entre el periodo 1995 y 2013. Material y métodos. Se analizó una muestra de 848 405 mujeres de 20 a 49 años. Se utilizaron modelos de regresión logística múltiple, ajustando por factores de confusión a nivel individual y país. Para evaluar no linealidades se definieron cuatro niveles a través de cuartiles y se dividieron en cuatro variables indicadoras. Resultados. La globalización total presentó una asociación positiva con el sobrepeso y la obesidad. Las tres dimensiones de globalización (económica, política, social) indicaron un incremento del sobrepeso y obesidad a mayor puntaje de globalización. La globalización social presentó un comportamiento polinomial, mientras que en la globalización política y económica se observó una relación cóncava. Conclusión. Las dimensiones económicas, políticas y sociales tuvieron una asociación positiva con el sobrepeso y la obesidad. 2019-09-17T20:02:27Z 2019-09-17T20:02:27Z 2019 Artículo García, Christian Martín.
