“…No obstante, algunos estudios han reportado proporciones altas de escolares con adecuados niveles de AF, principalmente a través de la realización de actividades extraescolares (Meléndez et al, 2010;Nava, Pérez, Herrera y Hernández, 2011). Escolares de diversas ciudades de Colombia (Alayón, Castro, Gaviria, Fernández y Benítez, 2011;Fajardo y Ángel, 2012;Giraldo, Poveda, Forero, Mendivil y Castro, 2008;Hernández, 2011), se ha reportado que los niños pasan un tiempo superior al esperado frente a pantallas, ya sea de televisión, videojuegos o computadoras (Duque y Parra, 2012;Gómez, Lucumí, Parra y Lobelo, 2008).…”

Assessing healthy habits related to child overweight and obesity is important concerning the prevention efforts. A variety of measures to assess eating habits and physical activity are available, being the self-report frequency questionnaires the most common and cost-efficient. Nevertheless, those questionnaires generate a large amount of data. Considering this, the purpose of the study was to develop a proposal to synthesize information from the Child Overweight/Obesity Healthy related Habits Questionnaire (CHS-SO), through the creation of indexes and a combination of a factorial method and cluster analysis. Nine indexes were created to assess eating habits, physical activity, and digital entertainment use, allowing to classify children into healthy or unhealthy in each index. The CHS-SO was administered to 239 children between 8 and 12 years old from Cali, Colombia. Data obtained from the indexes were analyzed using a multiple correspondence analysis and cluster analysis. Results show that most of the children have healthy eating habits, physical activity was lower in girls and digital entertainment use was high.Resumen Evaluar los hábitos de salud relacionados con el sobrepeso y la obesidad infantil resulta fundamental para la prevención de estas problemáticas. Existe una amplia variedad de instrumentos para medir dichos hábitos, siendo más comunes y costo-eficientes los cuestionarios de autorreporte, sin embargo estos generan información demasiado extensa y difícil de analizar. Por tanto, este estudio tuvo como objetivo desarrollar una propuesta de síntesis de la información obtenida del Cuestionario de Hábitos de Salud relacionados con el Sobrepeso/Obesidad Infantil (CHS-SO), a partir de la construcción de indicadores de hábitos de alimentación, de actividad física y de consumo de entretenimiento digital que permitan clasificar a los niños como saludables o no saludables. Participaron 239 niños y niñas de 8 a 12 años de edad, quienes completaron el CHS-SO. La combinación del análisis de correspondencias múltiples con el de conglomerados arrojó dos clústers. Los hábitos de alimentación fueron saludables en la mayoría de los niños, sin embargo fueron identificadas diferencias en función del sexo y el nivel socioeconómico. Por el contrario, los dos hábitos menos saludables fueron el comer mientras se emplean dispositivos de entretenimiento digital y el tiempo destinado a estos últimos.

Objective To determine the effects of recreational physical activity mediated by technology on the body composition of six- to nine-year-old children. Childhood obesity is a public health problem associated with the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and which was exacerbated during the COVID-19 lockdowns, given the restrictions on going to school and participating in group games, among others. Methods A quasi-experimental intervention study included 27 schoolchildren (12 boys and 15 girls) with an average age of 6 from an educational establishment during who received three 60-minute online sessions of recreational physical activity per week for 20 weeks. Results Medical tests were carried out prior to the intervention, which found that 13.3% of girls were overweight and 40% obese, while 6.7% of boys were overweight and 41.6% obese. After the interventions, there was an average weight reduction of 1.7 kg (p = 0.16), while there were also reductions in the proportion of the participants suffering from overweight and obesity, body fat percentage (0.9 percentage points; p = 0.4) and abdominal circumference (1.01 cm; p = 0.63). Conclusion The interventions mediated by technology had a positive impact on anthropometric measurements, promoting healthy practices and physical exercise during lockdown.

INTRODUCCIÓNLa edad preescolar se caracteriza por ser una etapa en la que se adquieren los hábitos que van a definir el estilo de vida del futuro adulto (1), es por ello que es pertinente implementar en esta etapa, cualquier acción que permita un crecimiento y desarrollo normal. Algún cambio desfavorable en el estilo de vida del niño, comprometerá su formación biológica, que de una u otra forma afectará su estado nutricional y por ende su salud actual y futura.Diversos factores influyen en el estado nutricional del niño, entre ellos los hábitos alimentarios y la actividad física, no obstante, pocos son los estudios que relacionan éstas variables en niños de edad preescolar.En cuanto al estado nutricional, los estudios reali- Frisancho's pattern as a reference, 173 children were studied, and anthropometric indicators such as height/age, weight/height and both lean and fat arm areas were measured. To assess food habits and PAL, a questionnaire was developed and applied. Results: For vegetables, fruits and fats the consumption patterns was low, and for cereals, meats, and dairy products was high. In 52% of the children the PAL was intense, and in the 27% was light. Among food habits, PAL and sedentary index (SI) an association was found. Conclusions: Results suggest implementing changes from the preschool stage to correct for inappropriate food habits, to encourage physical activity and to avoid a high SI, will relate to the appearance of adult chronic degenerative diseases. ABSTRACT Preschool Venezuelan children underwent a study that measures the relationship between anthropometric nutritional state, food habits and physical activity level (PAL). Methods: Using
