Abstract ABSTRACT Objective The objective of the present study was to propose cutoff points of neck circumference for predicting overweight in Brazilian children. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study with 875 children from public schools in Brazil. Weight, height, and neck circumference were measured. Nutritional status and the risk of complications were assessed based on the values of body mass index and neck circumference. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to verify the cutoff points. Results The median age was eight years, and the majority of the children had normal weights by body mass index and had no risk of metabolic complications by neck circumference. There was a correlation between neck circumference and body mass index (k=0.689; p<0.005). The mean values proposed for overweight were 29.2 cm for girls and 29.1 cm for boys. Conclusion Neck circumference had a good correlation with body mass index, and the cutoff points proposed can identify overweight in Brazilian children. RESUMO Objetivo O objetivo do presente estudo foi propor pontos de corte para circunferência do pescoço para predição de excesso de peso em crianças brasileiras. Métodos Estudo transversal realizado com 875 crianças. Foram mensurados peso, estatura e circunferência do pescoço. O diagnóstico do estado nutricional e risco de complicações foi realizado com base nos valores de índice de massa corporal e circunferência de pescoço. Para verificar os pontos de corte foi utilizada a curva Característica de Operação do Receptor. Resultados A mediana de idade foi de oito anos e a maioria das crianças apresentou eutrofia pelo índice de massa corporal e nenhum risco de complicações metabólicas. Observou-se correlação substancial entre a circunferência do pescoço com o índice de massa corporal (k=0,689; p<0,005). Os valores médios de circunferência de pescoço propostos para excesso de peso foi 29,2 cm para meninas e 29,1 cm para meninos. Conclusão A circunferência do pescoço possui boa correlação com o índice de massa corporal e os pontos de corte aqui propostos possuem força para identificar crianças brasileiras com excesso de peso.
