| dc.description.abstract | Objetivo: verificar associação entre rede social e incapacidade funcional em idosos brasileiros. Métodos: estudo transversal, com dados secundários de 11.177 idosos, disponíveis no site do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatítica. Os componentes da rede social foram: possuir amigos e familiares de confiança, viver com o cônjuge, praticar atividade social, realizar trabalho voluntário ou remunerado. O desfecho foi a incapacidade funcional, aferida pela dificuldade no desempenho de atividades instrumentais e básicas da vida diária. Utilizaram-se modelos de regressão logística. Resultados: a prevalência de incapacidade para atividades instrumentais foi 28,0% (IC95%: 26,7-29,4), e para atividades básicas, 15,5% (IC95%: 14,4-16,6). Não possuir componentes da rede social se associou a maiores chances de incapacidade funcional, especialmente entre as mulheres. Conclusão: houve associação entre não possuir componentes da rede social com incapacidade funcional. Há diferenças nessa associação segundo sexo. Fortalecer ações que ampliem a rede social pode reduzir a chance desse desfecho em idosos. | |

| local.description.resumo | Objective: to verify the association between social network and functional disability in elderly Brazilians. Methods: a cross-sectional study with secondary data of 11,177 elderly people, available on Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics’ website. Social network components were having trusted friends/relative, living with their spouse, practicing social activity, performing voluntary or paid work. The outcome was functional disability, measured by the difficulty in performing instrumental and basic activities of daily living. Logistic regression models were used. Results: disability prevalence for instrumental activities was 28.0% (95%CI: 26.7-29.4), and for basic activities, 15.5% (95%CI: 14.4-16.6). Not having components social network components was associated with greater chances of functional disability, especially among women. Conclusion: there was an association between not having social network components with functional disability. There are differences in this association according to sex. Strengthening actions that expand social network can reduce the chance of this outcome in elderly people. | |
