Mortality in children with kidney failure is higher girls than boys cardiovascular complications representing the most common causes of death. Pulse wave velocity (PWV), a measure vascular stiffness, predicts mortality adults. Here, PWV undergoing replacement therapy was investigated to determine sex differences and potential contributing factors. Two-hundred thirty-five (80 girls; 34%) transplantation (150 pre-emptive, 85 prior dialysis) having at least one measurement pre- and/or...
Background: Poor dietary habits and low levels of physical activity (PA) have a strong tendency to track from childhood into adulthood. The Mediterranean Diet (MD) is known be extremely healthy, associated with lower BMI risk obesity in children adolescents. Therefore, adherence the MD was compared between Spanish (n = 182) German 152) aged 10 13 years examine possible more “westernized” diet Spain non-Mediterranean country, that traditionally prefers “Western diet” determine association...
Abstract Subclinical alterations in left ventricular structure and function are detectable adolescents with hypertension or obesity. However, data on early echocardiographic abnormalities seemingly healthy children lacking. Sex differences cardiac have been previously reported, but sex-specific reference values not available. Specifically, the potential interaction of sex overweight has addressed at all. Anthropometric data, blood pressure exercise tests were obtained 356 children....
Children's sedentary time has increased, while daily physical activity and motor performance have decreased. We evaluated an integrated school-based exercise program by assessing changes in skills after one year comparing these to children who did not participate. included 303 from five schools this longitudinal study assigned them either the group (EG; n = 183 with program) or waiting (WG; 120). Motor were assessed at baseline year. Mixed modeling was used analyze inter-group differences of...
Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Übergewicht und Bewegungsmangel stellen bei Kindern ein Risiko für kardiovaskuläre Erkrankungen dar. Das Ziel der Studie war, den kardiovaskulären Gesundheitsstatus die Fitness deutscher Grund- Gesamtschülerinnen -schüler sowie mögliche Einflussfaktoren zu erfassen. Methodik In einer prospektiven Querschnittsstudie wurden 357 Kinder (9,6 ± 1,7 Jahre) auf Risikofaktoren untersucht. Die Pulswellengeschwindigkeit (PWV) als Maß arterielle Gefäßelastizität...
Objective: Cardiovascular (CV) complications are the most common causes of death worldwide. Increased body weight and higher blood pressure (BP) known risk factors for CV disease with a association mass index (BMI) BP. Our study intended to describe at which BMI-level significant increases in either central (cBP) or peripheral BP (pBP) can be detected young children. Design method: We measured cBP pBP 1,183 schoolchildren (first/second graders; mean age 7.9±0.6 years; 51% male). measurements...
Abstract Purpose: Children’s sedentary time has increased in recent years, especially during school, while daily physical activity decreased. The lack of can contribute to a deterioration motor performance, which is key healthy development. We implemented comprehensive exercise program the school setting. Our study aimed evaluate this by assessing changes skills after one year and compare these children who did not participate. Methods: A total 357 from 5 schools were included observational...
