Resumo
Introdução: Esta dissertação foi realizada tendo por base dois objetivos principais. O objetivo inicial foi a realização de uma revisão sistemática da literatura (RSL) com a intenção de examinar a potencial influência da utilização de uma secretária ajustável em altura e que permite trabalhar em pé (SSD) nos comportamentos alimentares. O segundo objetivo desta dissertação foi realizar um estudo original com base nos dados obtidos numa intervenção randomizada e controlada (RCT), com o objetivo de comparar os indivíduos que utilizaram SSD e os que permaneceram no grupo de controlo (secretária tradicional), e observar diferenças nos hábitos alimentares no que diz respeito à adesão à dieta mediterrânica. Método: Na RSL foram identificados 2209 estudos, dos quais 1778 foram excluídos, resultando em cinco artigos selecionados para análise de texto completo. No final, quatro estudos foram incluídos na RSL. Uma pesquisa abrangente de várias bases de dados foi realizada para identificar todos os RCTs publicados em inglês entre 2014 e 2023, que envolveram 119 participantes e implicaram a SSD e comportamentos alimentares. O RCT original incluiu 38 trabalhadores de escritório da Universidade Lusófona e decorreu no ambiente de trabalho dos participantes e teve a duração de seis meses. Os participantes foram aleatoriamente alocados para um de dois grupos (i.e., intervenção ou controlo). Foi efetuada uma avaliação nutricional dos hábitos/comportamentos alimentares utilizando um questionário de 11 itens para avaliar a adesão à dieta mediterrânica no início e no final dos 6 meses. Resultados: A RSL sugere que as SSD podem ter o potencial de reduzir o apetite e a ingestão energética. No artigo original foram encontradas diferenças entre os grupos, após 6 meses de utilização da SSD, favorecendo o grupo de intervenção com uma maior adesão à dieta mediterrânica (+3,37 pontuação) (p=0,013) e consumo de peixe (+0,79 porções/semana) (p=0,022) e vegetais (+1,0 porções/semana) (p=0,002). Conclusões: Parece que as SSD podem ter o potencial de afetar positivamente as sensações de apetite e a ingestão energética. Os resultados do estudo original vão no sentido dos da RSL e indicam que a acessibilidade às SSD pode possivelmente promover seleções alimentares mais saudáveis e melhorar a adesão a uma dieta de estilo mediterrânico. No entanto, dada a falta de estudos sobre este tema, são necessários mais estudos para confirmar estes resultados.

Introduction: This dissertation was undertaken with two main goals. The initial aim was to conduct a systematic literature review (SLR) with the intention of examining the potential impact of sit-stand desk (SSD) utilization on eating behaviors. The second goal of this dissertation was to conduct an original study based on the data obtained from a clustered randomized controlled trial (RCT), with the aim of comparing the individuals who used SSD with those who remained in the control group (i.e., traditional desk), and observing any differences in eating behaviors about adherence to the Mediterranean diet. Method: A total of 2209 studies were identified, 1778 of which were excluded, resulting in five articles that were selected for full-text analysis. Four studies were ultimately included in the SLR. A comprehensive search of multiple databases was conducted to identify all RCT published in English between 2014 and 2023 that involved 119 participants and were related to SSD and eating behaviors. The original RCT included 38 office workers from Lusófona University. The study was conducted in the participants' work environment and lasted six months. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups (i.e., intervention using SSD or control using traditional desks). A nutritional assessment of eating behaviors was conducted using an 11-item questionnaire to assess adherence to the Mediterranean diet at the beginning and end of the sixmonth study period. Results: SSD may have the potential to reduce appetite and energy intake. From the original study, differences were found between groups after 6 months of using the SSD, favoring the intervention group with greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet (+3.37 points) (p=0.013) and consumption of fish (+0.79 portions/week) (p=0.022), and vegetables (+1.0 portions/week) (p=0.002). Conclusions: It appears that SSD may have the potential to positively impact appetite sensations and energy intake. The findings from the original study indicate that the accessibility to SSD can possibly foster healthier dietary choices and enhance the adherence to a Mediterraneanstyle diet, which correlates with a multitude of health advantages. However, given the lack of studies on this topic, more studies are needed to confirm these findings. Keywords: office; workplace; sit-stand desk; diet; eating behaviors.
