Objectives To describe new WHO 2020 guidelines on physical activity and sedentary behaviour. Methods The were developed in accordance with protocols. An expert Guideline Development Group reviewed evidence to assess associations between behaviour for an agreed set of health outcomes population groups. assessment used systematically updated recent relevant systematic reviews; primary reviews addressed additional or subpopulations. Results address children, adolescents, adults, older adults...
The Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology assembled a Consensus Panel representing national organizations, content experts, methodologists, stakeholders, and end-users followed an established guideline development procedure to create the 24-Hour Movement Guidelines Adults aged 18–64 years 65 or older: An Integration of Physical Activity, Sedentary Behaviour, Sleep. These guidelines underscore importance movement behaviours across whole 24-h day. process strategy outlined in Appraisal...
In July, 2019, the World Health Organization (WHO) commenced work to update 2010 Global Recommendations on Physical Activity for and established a Guideline Development Group (GDG) comprising expert public health scientists practitioners inform drafting of 2020 Guidelines Sedentary Behavior. The overall task GDG was review scientific evidence provide advice WHO amount physical activity sedentary behavior associated with optimal in children adolescents, adults, older adults (> 64 years), also...
Abstract Background In 2018, the World Health Organisation (WHO) commenced a program of work to update 2010 Global Recommendations on Physical Activity for Health, first-time providing population-based guidelines sedentary behaviour. This paper briefly summarizes and highlights scientific evidence behind new behaviour all adults discusses its strengths limitations, including gaps/research needs potential implications public health practice. Methods An overview scope methods used is provided,...
Physical inactivity is a leading risk factor for global mortality and contributor to the increase in overweight obesity. The Commission on Ending Childhood Obesity identified need guidance physical activity, particularly early childhood (<5 y), period of rapid cognitive development.The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed first guidelines sedentary, sleep behaviors, building upon high-quality systematic reviews. WHO guideline process rigorous, systematic, transparent method...
24-hour movement behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep) during the early years are associated with health developmental outcomes, prompting WHO to develop Global guidelines for physical sleep children under 5 of age. Prevalence data on is lacking, particularly in low-income middle-income countries (LMICs). This paper describes development
Objective: To investigate determinants of breastmilk RNA viral load among HIV-infected South African women, with particular attention to infant feeding mode and subclinical mastitis. Design: Observational, longitudinal study. Methods: Information on current practice a spot milk sample from each breast were obtained 145 lactating women at 1, 6 14 weeks postpartum. The sodium/potassium (Na+/K+) ratio in was taken as an indicator association between maternal characteristics investigated using...
Objective: Previous studies on the operational effectiveness of programmes to reduce transmission HIV from mother-to-child (PMTCT) in Africa have generally been hospital-based pilot with short follow-up periods. Method: Prospective cohort study evaluate routine South African National PMTCT Programme, primarily measured by HIV-free survival at 36 weeks post-delivery. Three eighteen sites participating programme were selected as they reflected differences circumstances, such prevalence,...
Vitamin A is important for protection against diarrhea, and supplements may benefit gut function of infants HIV-infected mothers.We studied 238 South African women participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial vitamin during pregnancy (1.5 mg retinyl palmitate 30 beta-carotene daily) plus 60 at delivery. The placebo group received identical capsules the same times. When were 1, 6, 14 weeks age, lactulose/mannitol dual sugar intestinal permeability tests...
Background: There is a strong relationship between diarrhoea, malnutrition, and intestinal integrity. To investigate the effect of different dietary treatment on permeability during acute 87 Tanzanian children aged 6-25 months were recruited to this study when admitted hospital. Methods: Children with diarrhoea rehydrated then randomly assigned one three groups: conventional low-energy density porridge, high-energy amylase digested porridge (AMD), or fermented (FAD). Lactulose/mannitol tests...
The mechanism and risk factors associated with mother-to-child transmission of HIV-1 through breastfeeding remain unclear; breastmilk viral load may be an important determinant transmission. Analysis cell-free in samples taken from each breast at 1, 6 14 weeks postpartum showed that is shed intermittently differ considerably between breasts individual woman any given time. Breastmilk was undetectable approximately one-third samples. thought to a major the postnatal mother child [1–3],...
Purpose As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues to spread across countries, it is becoming increasingly clear that presence of pre-existing noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) dramatically increases risk aggravation in persons who contract virus. The neglect managing NCDs during emergencies may result fatal consequences for individuals living with comorbidities. This paper aims highlight need a paradigm shift governance public health simultaneously address NCD and (CD) pandemics...
The ratio plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP):transthyretin (TTR) has been proposed as a means to improve the assessment of vitamin A status individuals with concurrent infection or inflammation. We have measured RBP and TTR in stored sera from South African children who had accidentally ingested kerosene. Samples were collected these hospital when suffering acute inflammation respiratory distress, them neighbourhood control 3 months later. Vitamin was defined by modified relative dose...
