“… 19) Of these risk factors, being overweight and obese have positive correlations with high lipid levels and total cholesterol, and have negative correlations with HDL-C. 20) 21) 22) In addition to obesity, a lack of physical activity is also associated with the accumulation of fat and metabolic changes. Vasconcelos et al 23) reported that, compared with inactive or sedentary peers, active adults had lower total cholesterol and TG levels. Moreover, Varady et al 24) stated that through lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise, most adults could significantly decrease their lipid levels and atherosclerotic risk.…”

Background and ObjectivesThe objective of this study was to analyze cardiovascular risk factors in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD).Subjects and MethodsThe subjects for this study comprised 135 patients, aged 18 years and above, who visited the ACHD clinic at the Samsung Medical Center and 135 adults with a structurally normal heart who were randomly selected from the Center for Health Promotion during the same period. For the analysis, the ACHD group was further divided into an ACHD group that underwent correction by cardiac surgery and a cyanotic group.ResultsThe mean (standard diviation) age (years) of patients in the surgically corrected group was 48.4 (10.9) years, while that of patients in the cyanotic group was 43.1 (9.0) years and that of patients in the control group was 47.1 (10.3) years (p=0.042). The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for past smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, obesity, and metabolic syndrome were significantly higher in the surgically corrected patients than in the controls. However, the ORs for all variables excluding past smoking were significantly lower in the cyanotic group compared with the control group. After adjustment for age, gender, smoking, alcohol use, and exercise, the ORs for metabolic syndrome were 0.46 (0.35-0.57, p<0.001) and 1.48 (1.14-1.92, p=0.003) in the cyanotic and surgically corrected groups, respectively.ConclusionCardiovascular risk factors need to be considered in surgically corrected ACHD patients as well as in adults with a structurally normal heart. A further study with a long-term follow-up is needed for developing guidelines for prevention.

“…age and gender comparisons as recommended elsewhere 7. Studies that aimed at other variables among children and adolescents also did not present data differentiating the age of girls and boys 10. These stratifications would give a better understanding of disease mechanisms during childhood and adolescence and help the maintenance of a healthy lifestyle from childhood into adulthood.…”

Objective:To analyze the associations between sex and age with behaviour related to physical activity practice and sedentary behaviour in children and adolescents.Methods:A cross-sectional study with 480 (236 boys) subjects enrolled in a public school in the city of Londrina, in the south of Brazil, aged 8–17 years. Measures of physical activity, sports practice and screen times were obtained using the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Older Children. The Mann–Whitney U test was used to compare variables between boys and girls. The Chi squared test was used for categorical analysis and Poisson regression was used to identify prevalence.Results:Girls (69.6%; PR=1.05 [0.99–1.12]) spent more time with sedentary behaviour than boys (62.2%). Boys (80%; PR=0.95 [0.92–0.98]) were more physically active than girls (91%). Older students aged 13–17 showed a higher prevalence of physical inactivity (91.4%; PR=1.06 [1.02–1.10]) and time spent with sedentary behaviour of ≥2h/day (71.8%; PR=0.91 [0.85–0.97]) when compared to younger peers aged 8–12 (78.7 and 58.5%, respectively).Conclusions:The prevalence of physical inactivity was higher in girls. Older students spent more screen time in comparison to younger students.

Fatores de risco cardiovascular em adolescentes com diferentes níveis de gasto energético

Abstract: SummaryBackground: Physical inactivity in adolescence is related to body fat accumulation, which apparently can increase the probability of onset and development of metabolic changes.
