The prevalence of obesity in pediatric population is increasing at an accelerated rate many countries, and has become a major public health concern. Physical activity, particularly exercise training, remains to be cornerstone interventions. purpose our current randomized intervention trial was compare the effects two types training matched for volume, aerobic concurrent, on body composition metabolic profile obese adolescents. Thus aim study 32 adolescents participated groups, concurrent or...
The purpose of this study was to determine whether parents' current and previous physical activity practice is associated with adolescents' activity.The sample composed 1231 adolescents (14-17 years), 1202 mothers 871 fathers were interviewed. Weight height the measured. Self-reported weight obtained. levels (Baecke's questionnaire) parents (during childhood adolescence) obtained using a questionnaire. magnitude associations between parent adolescent determined by binary logistic regression...
Sports practice can promote several health benefits in pediatric populations; nonetheless, most of the studies that investigated these are cross-sectional design. Thus, our objective was to verify effectiveness two types physical activities through sports, judo and ball games (soccer, volleyball, handball, basketball) on quality sleep life Brazilian children adolescents.The study is a randomized clinical trial, conducted with 65 participants both sexes (6-15 years old) philanthropic...
Abstract This study aimed to analyze the relationship of physical activity in different domains with cardiac autonomic modulation adults. A sample 252 adults was randomly selected, mean age 42.1 (± 16.5) years, being 58% women. Cardiac assessed through indexes heart rate variability time (SDNN, RMSSD) and frequency (LF, HF) for linear method, by Poincaré plot non-linear method (SD1, SD2 components). Domains PA (occupation, sport, leisure time/commuting, total) were Baecke’s questionnaire....
Somatic maturation and the age at onset of puberty are closely related to bone mineral density (BMD), potential confounders associations between physical activity, sedentary behavior (SB) BMD in adolescents. Thus aim was compare different anatomical sites according domains SB.The sample consisted 88 young people (54 boys 34 girls; 9.5 ± 1.5 years). The self-reported SB measured by time spent on TV, computer, video game smartphone. each location throughout body assessed DEXA. Physical...
ABSTRACT Introduction Self-esteem has been positively associated with physical activity, but it is not clear whether different domains and intensities of activity are differently related to self-esteem in community-dwelling adults. This study aimed analyze the relationship between Methods cross-sectional included a randomly selected sample 252 adults (mean age: 42.6 ± 17.2 yr), whom 58.8% were female. (occupational exercise sports leisure, leisure commuting activity) assessed using...
Sports practice in childhood and adolescence has been inversely related to the chances of developing cardiovascular risk factors (CRFs). However, it is not clear whether sports could be CRF adult life. This study aimed analyze association between early a randomized sample community-dwelling adults. For this, 265 adults aged ≥ 18 years composed sample. Cardiovascular obesity, central diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension were collected. Early was retrospectively self-reported using an...
Abstract Introduction: Cardiac autonomic modulation is an important marker of cardiovascular health and the practice physical activity a fundamental tool for good maintenance or increments in this marker. However, it not clear literature whether different intensities domains are related same way to cardiac modulation. Objectives: This randomized epidemiologic study will examine relationship between representative sample adults. Methods: The consist 252 subjects aged from 18 years above. be...
Lifestyle and habits, cardiovascular risk factors (CRF), bone mental health, dietary physical activity, among others are developed in childhood adolescence. Family environment has shown to play an important role these outcomes. However, whether the parent-child relationship lifestyle habits health parameters can be influenced by activity patterns still unclear. The objective of this study will monitor investigate associations between parents their children longitudinally, as well verify more...
The elevated blood pressure (BP) and lower cardiac autonomic modulation (CAM) are associated with higher morbidity mortality risk among older adults. Although exercise is an important intervention for cardiovascular promotion, it unclear whether combat sports training could benefit outcomes as much in this population. This study compared the effects of 12 weeks Muay Thai (MT) against functional (FT) on CAM hemodynamic parameters
Abstract Background To examine the association of handgrip strength (HGS) and bone mineral density (BMD) Brazilian children adolescents. Methods The sample included 243 adolescents aged from 4 to 15 years (9.3 ± 2.2 years), 171 males 72 females. following measurements were performed: weight, height, trunk length, peak height velocity (PHV). percentage lean soft tissue (PLST), fat mass (PFM), BMD obtained using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) HGS a dynamometer. Results In girls, was...
Purpose : The aim of the study was to evaluate cardiac autonomic modulation after 9 months martial arts practice in healthy children and adolescents. Method included 59 adolescents who were divided into 3 groups: judo, Muay Thai, control. Heart rate variability measured by a heart monitor, model Polar RS800CX. intervention occurred twice week on nonconsecutive days, lasting 60 minutes each session. A 1-way analysis variance used compare participants at baseline. comparisons between groups...
BACKGROUND: The literature on physical activity practice through sports as a protective factor for back pain in adolescents is conflicting. However, few studies have aimed to verify if continuity of the from childhood adolescence may be related lower chances b ack adolescents. OBJECTIVES: objective this study was analyze association between and METHODS: random sample composed 870 with mean age 13.7 ± 2.0 years. assessed adolescence. Pain neck low were evaluated questionnaire. RESULTS:...
Back pain and poor sleep quality are public health issues. Relating to adolescents particularly, the way in which this relationship can occur is still unclear. The aim of study was investigate whether low back neck associated with among adolescents.In total, 1011 randomly selected participated study. Neck were assessed using Nordic questionnaire, while through Mini-Sleep Questionnaire. confounding variables used statistical analysis age, socioeconomic status, physical activity, body mass...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to analyze the association between smoking during adolescence and characteristics of alcohol consumption among their parents. DESIGN AND SETTING: Cross-sectional in Londrina (PR), Brazil. METHODS: The subjects comprised 1,231 adolescents aged 14-17 years. parents answered a self-report questionnaire that asked for sociodemographic information data on consumption. Multiple logistic regression models were used associations (age, sex, period day attending school,...

ABSTRACT Introduction The aim of this study was to analyze the effects 16 wk Muay Thai practice on body perception, self-esteem, and quality life in adolescents with overweight/obesity. Methods sample consisted overweight/obesity, aged 10–17 yr. Overweight/obesity confirmed using mass index (BMI) fat (BF). Body height were measured, from which BMI calculated. BF assessed dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. perception measured Brazilian Silhouette Scale for Children, self-esteem Rosenberg...
