Relationship between 24-h activity behavior and body fat percentage in preschool children: based on compositional data and isotemporal substitution analysis. BMC Public Health 2024; 24:1063. [PMID: 38627707 PMCID: PMC11022470 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-18570-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/19/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to elucidate the dose‒response relationship between 24-h activity behaviors and body fat percentage (BFP) in Chinese preschool children using a compositional isotemporal substitution model (ISM). METHODS In a cross-sectional design, 881 children aged 3-6 from urban and rural areas of Jiangxi Province were sampled. Activity behaviors, including sedentary behavior (SB), low-intensity physical activity (LPA), and moderate- to high-intensity physical activity (MVPA), were measured using accelerometers. Sleep patterns were assessed through questionnaires, and BFP was determined by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). The study employed compositional data analysis (CoDA) and ISM to estimate the impact of reallocating durations of different activity behaviors on BFP. RESULTS Higher BFP was found in urban vs. rural children, decreasing with age. Overweight and obesity rates were 10.6% and 7.6%, respectively, above national averages. MVPA and LPA were negatively correlated with BFP, while SB was positively correlated. A 30-min MVPA reduction significantly increased zBFR, particularly in overweight children. Gender-specific nuances revealed that boys' MVPA negatively influenced zBFP (β = -0.155), P < 0.05), while girls' SB positively impacted zBFP (β = 0.636, P < 0.01). Isotemporal simulations emphasized amplified effects in overweight children, with boys' zBFR rising rapidly when MVPA was substituted and girls displaying a notable substitution effect between SB and LPA. CONCLUSION BFP is closely linked to 24-h activity behaviors, notably in overweight and obese preschoolers. ISM identified MVPA as a critical influencer, with a 30-min reduction substantially increasing BFP. Gender disparities were evident, implicating MVPA in boys and LPA and SB in girls.

The Influence of Abdominal Adiposity and Physical Fitness on Obesity Status of Portuguese Adolescents. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:11213. [PMID: 36141486 PMCID: PMC9517613 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191811213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to verify the relationship between abdominal adiposity and physical fitness in the obesity status of Portuguese adolescents. BMI, abdominal adiposity, and physical fitness tests from the FITescola® were evaluated in a total of 654 Portuguese adolescents, aged 10-19 years old-male: n = 334 (51%), female: n = 320 (49%). For the final model, BMI was positively related with age (β = 0.25), abdominal adiposity (β = 0.313), horizontal jump (β = -0.100), 40 m maximal velocity (β = 0.274), and aerobic fitness (β = -0.250, R2 = 0.75, F = 382.2, and p = 0.0001). We conclude that higher age and abdominal adiposity are positively related with a higher adolescent BMI. Furthermore, lower horizontal jump distances and worse times on the 40 m maximal velocity were inversely related with a higher adolescent BMI, and lower aerobic fitness was inversely related with a higher adolescent BMI.

Association between Sleep Duration, Physical Activity, and Mental Health Disorders: A Secondary Analysis of the National Survey of Children's Health 2017-2018. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:5585678. [PMID: 33816615 PMCID: PMC7987431 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5585678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
Background The purpose of this article was to examine the association of sleep duration and physical activity and their interactions on mental health disorders in American children aged 6-17 years. Methods Data were analyzed from the combined 2017-2018 National Survey of Children's health. Ultimately, a total of 36370 children aged 6-17 years were selected as the samples. Weighted logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results Insufficient sleep duration was associated with an increased risk for current anxiety, depression, and behavior/conduct problems (odds ratio = 1.449, 1.991, 1.375; 95% confidence interval: 1.313-1.702, 1.648-2.406, 1.162-1.627). Insufficient physical activity was associated with an increased risk for current anxiety (odds ratio = 1.448; 95% confidence interval: 1.230-1.706) and depression (odds ratio = 1.743; 95% confidence interval: 1.304-2.329). In addition, additive interactions between sleep duration and physical activity were observed on current anxiety and depression. Conclusions Insufficient sleep duration and insufficient physical activity in children were associated with mental health disorders. There is a synergistic interaction effect between insufficient sleep duration and insufficient physical activity on current anxiety and current depression.

Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2021; 14:3323-3335. [PMID: 34321899 PMCID: PMC8312620 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s319583] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2021] [Accepted: 07/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence and associated factors of childhood overweight/obesity in the Shunyi district of Beijing, China. METHODS This study adopted a cross-sectional survey and included 10,855 children aged 6-18 years in the Shunyi district of Beijing, China. Analyses were stratified by age group (6-8, 9-11, 12-14, and 15-18 years). RESULTS The prevalence of overweight and obesity among children aged 6-18 years was high with 17.62% and 29.05% in boys, 17.57% and 18.04% in girls, respectively. Both boys and girls aged 9-11 years had the highest rate of obesity in comparison with the other age groups, though the differences in children aged 9-11 years and 12-14 years were not statistically significant. Compared with age 6-8 years, age 9-11 years (OR=1.59, 95% CI 1.41-1.79, P<0.01) and 12-14 years (OR=1.26, 95% CI 1.48-1.73, P<0.01) were independently positively associated with obesity. Importantly, in all subjects, the percentages of being physically active (exercise time ≥120 minutes/week) were lower in children aged 9-11 years in comparison to children in other age groups. This phenomenon remained when this comparison was performed respectively in the normal-weight, overweight, and obesity groups. Even after adjustment for other potential confounders, the probability of being physically active (exercise time ≥120 minutes/week) was lower in children aged 9-11 years (OR=0.86, 95% CI 0.78-0.94, P<0.01), but higher in children aged 12-14 years (OR=1.91, 95% CI 1.69-2.17, P<0.01) and aged 15-18 years (OR=2.22, 95% CI 1.85-2.66, P<0.01), when compared with children aged 6-8 years. CONCLUSION Children aged 9-11 years had a higher prevalence of obesity, but a lower percentage of being physically active. Targeted intervention programs in this key group are needed to address this problem in China.
