Association Between the Screen Time and the Cardiorespiratory Fitness With the Presence of Metabolic Risk in Schoolchildren

Abstract: ABSTRACT Objective: To verify the association between screen time and cardiorespiratory fitness with the presence of metabolic risk in schoolchildren in an isolated and clustered manner. Methods: Cross-sectional study with 1.200 schoolchildren from Santa Cruz do Sul-RS. Screen time and cardiorespiratory fitness were evaluated. The continuous metabolic risk score was calculated by summing the Z score of the waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-… Show more

“…Thus, CRF was determined by multiplying the number of laps by the metres covered. The sixminute walking and running test is commonly used for the evaluation of Brazilian youth due to ease of application, low cost of material, and the opportunity to evaluate a large number of participants simultaneously [ 20 , 21 ]. Children and adolescents were classified as Fit and Unfit according to the cut-off points proposed by Projeto Esporte Brasil for sex and age [ 19 ].…”

“…Evidence indicates that direct measures are more recommended for evaluating CRF related to cardiovascular disease [29], however, indirect measures, such as field tests are also considered as a useful alternative [30][31][32]. The six-minute running/walking test is commonly used for the evaluation of Brazilian schoolchildren, due to low operating costs, ease of application and the opportunity to evaluate a large number of individuals simultaneously [33,34]. It is also useful for tracking children and adolescents at risk of developing negative health outcomes [35,36].…”

“…Measures of abdominal obesity and WC in U.S. adolescents have increased in past decades, with current estimates (2011-2012) of abdominal obesity surpassing 30% and mean WC estimates surpassing 80 cm [5]. Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is another risk factor for premature morbidity and mortality with known associations with abdominal obesity [6,7,8].…”
