Early Lifestyle Determinants of Adiposity Trajectories from Childhood into Late Adolescence.

The aim of this study was to examine associations of childhood physical activity, sedentary behavior, and dietary intake with adiposity trajectories from childhood to adolescence. Quebec Adipose and Lifestyle Investigation in Youth (QUALITY) cohort ( = 630) data from 3 time points (8-10, 10-12, and 15-17 years) for 377 Caucasian children with parental obesity were analyzed. Height and weight, physical activity and sedentary behavior (7-day accelerometry), screen time (self-reported), and dietary intake (three 24-hour diet recalls) were measured.
