Introduction.A high level of physical fitness is associated with cardiovascular health in children and adolescents. At present, there is no systematic implementation of a test battery to assess physical fitness at schools in Argentina. The main objective of this study was to implement the ALPHA test battery to determine the physical fitness of a sample made up of Argentine children and adolescents and to establish the proportion of subjects whose aerobic capacity is indicative of future cardiovascular risk. Results. The mean body mass index was 20.8 kg/ m2, and 7.8% of participants were classified as obese. In addition, male participants had a better performance in all physical fitness tests when compared to girls (p< 0.001). An aerobic capacity indicative of cardiovascular risk was observed in 31.6% of all participants. Conclusions. Argentine male children and adolescents included in the sample showed higher levels of physical fitness. Such differences increase with age. Approximately one every three participants had an aerobic capacity indicative of future cardiovascular risk.

This study aimed to verify the relationship between anthropometric measures (AM), blood pressure (BP) and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), physical activity (PA), sedentary behaviour (SB), predicted BMI zscore, waist circumference (WC) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) variance. A total of 245 children (8.90 ± .80years-old) were recruited from a Portuguese school. WHtR was classified according the reference ≥ 0.5. WC was measured above iliac crest. BP was assessed using a sphygmomanometer, and CRF using 20-m run test. PA and SB were assessed by accelerometers (Actigraph GT3x) and by questionnaire. Participants did not meet recommendations on PA. CRF and vigorous PA (VPA) were inversely correlated with AM. Moderate and vigorous PA were positively correlated with CRF. CRF was inversely correlated with systolic and diastolic BP. CRF and PA explained BMI z-score variance. WC and WHtR variance was predicted by CRF. These results emphasize the importance of international recommendations for PA with the purpose of developing CRF. A new emphasis should be given to CRF and interdisciplinary approaches in international recommendations. This should provide new health implications for primary care providers and school services.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the tracking of clustered metabolic syndrome (MetS) risk factor taking into account fatness and aerobic fitness from childhood to adolescence in Japanese children. This cohort study included 113 participants (47 boys and 66 girls) who were measured for MetS risk factors at 10 years and 13 years of age. Clustered MetS risk factors (MetS risk score) were calculated from the total gender-specific values (zscores) of the following five parameters: waist to height ratio (W/H), predictedtriglycerides, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, and mean arterial pressure. The tracking coefficient of MetS risk score from childhood to adolescence was 0.647 (p < 0.001). Correlation coefficients of MetS risk scores (without W/H) between 10 and 13 years of age in the high W/H group (r = 0.713, p < 0.001) were higher than those in the low W/H group (r = 0.402, p < 0.01) In addition, correlation coefficients of MetS risk scores (without pV ・ O2peak) between 10 and 13 years of age in the low pV ・ O2peak (r = 0.630, p < 0.001) were higher than those in the high pV ・ O2peak (r = 0.452, p < 0.01). In conclusion, we found that MetS risk was stable from childhood to adolescence in Japanese children. Furthermore, our results show that both fatness and fitness are crucial for tracking MetS risk.
