Spatial distribution of sedentary behavior and unhealthy eating habits in Belo Horizonte, Brazil: the role of the neighborhood environment.

The study aimed to analyze the spatial distribution of sedentary behavior and unhealthy eating habits, and to assess its relationship with the neighborhood environment. Cross-sectional study with data of Surveillance System of Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases, carried out in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Watching television for four hours or more per day was identified as sedentary behavior. Unhealthy eating habits were defined based on regular consumption of sodas, excess fat meat, and red meat, and irregular consumption of fruits and vegetables. Georeferenced data of places for physical activity, food establishments, population and residential density, homicide rate, mean total income, and social vulnerability index were entered into the Vigitel database. The coverage area by basic health units was used as the geographical unit of neighborhood. SaTScan was used to analyze the spatial distribution. Spatial analysis identified a significant cluster of high prevalence of sedentary behavior and unhealthy eating habits, after adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics. The comparison of environmental characteristics inside and outside clusters showed significant differences in the physical and social environment. Physical and social environment might be related to clusters of high prevalence of sedentary behavior and unhealthy eating habits.
