It has been argued that metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) does not increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study examines the association of MHO with carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), a proxy CVD risk, in children and adolescents.Data were available for 3,497 adolescents aged 6-17 years from five population-based cross-sectional studies Brazil, China, Greece, Italy, Spain. Weight status categories (normal, overweight, obese) defined using BMI cutoffs International Obesity...

Cocoa breeders and growers continue to face the problem of high heterogeneity between individuals derived from one progeny. Vegetative propagation by somatic embryogenesis could be a way increase genetic gains in field. Somatic cocoa is difficult this species considered as recalcitrant. This study was conducted investigate phenolic composition flowers (the explants used achieve embryogenesis) how it changes during process, means histochemistry conventional chemical techniques. In flowers,...

The clinical utility of screening for pediatric metabolic syndrome (MetS) in children and adolescents is still controversial. We examined the performance MetS vs. clustering cardiovascular risk factors (which are components MetS) predicting high carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) adolescents.Participants included 2427 aged 6-17 years from population-based studies three countries (Brazil, China Italy). Pediatric was defined using either modified National Cholesterol Education Program Adult...

To evaluate the presence of carotid thickening and its relationship with Pathobiological Determinants Atherosclerosis in Youth score.We carried out a cross-sectional study involving 512 brazilian adolescents. Variables such as sex, body mass index, concentrations non-high-density lipoprotein high-density cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose glycated haemoglobin A1c levels that make up score, through intima-media complex measured by ultrasound were evaluated. We adopted two cut-off points to...

To assess the effect of exergaming on microcirculation function adolescents with overweight or obesity, this non-randomized clinical trial efficacy was conducted 61 aged between 10 and 16 years. The intervention group ( n = 31) performed three times per week for 8 weeks. Both groups received guidelines a healthy diet staying physically active. Microcirculation assessed using laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) at baseline after intervention. Primary outcomes derived from LDF assessment included...

Background: Pediatric blood pressure (BP) levels are typically assigned to categories when they exceed sex-, age-, and height-specific 90th (elevated) 95th percentile (high) cutoffs. Given the number of stratum, there hundreds cutoffs for defining elevated high BP that make it cumbersome use in clinical practice. In 2017 American Academy Pediatrics (AAP) recommended simplified ≥120/80 mmHg ≥130/80 be used diagnose BP, respectively, practice adolescents aged 13-17 years. Accordingly, we...
