Purpose: An accurate assessment of time spent in 24-hour movement behaviors (24 h-MBs) is crucial in exploring health related associations. This study aims to evaluate the concurrent validity of the Daily Activity Behavior Questionnaire (DABQ) compared to the ActiGraph using absolute and relative indicators of validity.
Methods: This cross-sectional observational study included 105 adults (45 ± 13 y/o, 54% female).
Background: Parents play a major role in shaping their children's physical activity (PA) behaviour. This study aimed to investigate the association between PA of youth with Cystic Fibrosis (YwCF) and their parents.
Methods: PA was measured by an ActiGraph GT3x-BT for seven consecutive days.
Aims: This systematic review aimed to summarize knowledge on explanatory variables of PA, SB and sleep in adults with T1D to support the development of healthy lifestyle interventions.
Methods: A systematic search of four databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Embase) was performed. Only objective measurements of PA, SB and sleep were included and all explanatory variables were classified according to the socio-ecological model (i.
Background: There is a lack of studies evaluating longitudinal changes in adiposity indicators and the association with 24-hour movement behavior guidelines in preschoolers. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate associations between changes in Body Mass Index (BMI) z-scores, waist circumference and waist-to-height ratio, and compliance with the 24-hour movement behavior guidelines in three- to six-year-old children from a European sample.
Methods: In total, data from a European sample of 719 preschoolers (50.
Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted to identify and reach expert consensus on factors linked to chronic pain in children, focusing on modifiable aspects that could improve prevention and management strategies.
- Using a web-based modified Delphi method, pediatric pain experts rated 47 factors based on their strength of association with chronic pain, modifiability, and population-level effects across two rounds of questions.
- The results highlighted four highly modifiable factors—physical activity, sedentary behavior, pain-related school absence, and the child's understanding of pain—along with three factors that could significantly affect populations, such as physical activity and the child's emotional state.
