Introduction: Studies on the association between work-family conflict and self-reported health are mostly cross-sectional; few studies have investigated the effect of education on this association.

Objectives: To investigate association between work-family conflict, family-work conflict, lack of time for self-care and leisure due to family and work demands, and self-rated health trajectories, examining sex differences and the modifying effect of education on these associations.

Methods: Data from active workers (women = 4,283; men = 3,851) from the three waves and annual follow-up (2008-2020) of the Longitudinal Study of Adult Health were analyzed using multinomial logistic models.

The scope of this study was to determine the diagnostic performance of ABSI for obesity and sarcopenic obesity, compared to the results of bioimpedance analysis (BIA) and BMI, by sex and age group. It involved a cross-sectional study with 12,793 participants in the second round of ELSA-Brasil (Longitudinal Study of Adult Health in Brazil), which obtained measurements of body fat percentage using BIA and anthropometry, verifying the performance of the diagnostic tests in order to compare the indices. The results showed that for obesity in men in all three age groups, the sensitivity was below 49%.

To describe patterns of self-rated health (SRH) trajectories and investigate their association with sociodemographic, occupational, and health factors. The sample consisted of 7,738 active public servants from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil), evaluated from 2008 to 2020. The patterns of SRH trajectories were obtained by eleven time points, using the latent class growth curve.
