(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-01-04)Objectives: To examine objectively measured physical activity level, organized sports participation and active commuting to school in relation to mathematic performance and inhibitory control in adolescents. Methods: The ... -
Body fat related to daily physical activity and insulin concentrations in non-diabetic children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-06-28)This study explored the associations between body fat versus daily physical activity and insulin concentrations in non-diabetic young children in a cross-sectional study of 172 children (93 boys and 79 girls) aged 8–11 ... -
Correlates of light and moderate-to-vigorous objectively measured physical activity in four-year old children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-09-05)Background: Correlates of physical activity (PA) are hypothesized to be context and behaviour specific, but there is limited evidence of this in young children. The aim of the current study is to investigate associations ... -
Determinants of Change in Children's Sedentary Time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-06-28)Background: Understanding the determinants of sedentary time during childhood contributes to the development of effective intervention programmes. Purpose: To examine family and home-environmental determinants of 1-year ... -
Determinants of three-year change in children’s objectively measured sedentary time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-12)Background: Sedentary behaviours (SB) are highly prevalent in young people and may be adversely associated with physical and mental health. Understanding of the modifiable determinants of SB is necessary to inform the ... -
Effectiveness of a School-Based Physical Activity Intervention on Cognitive Performance in Danish Adolescents: LCoMotion—Learning, Cognition and Motion – A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-06-24)Background: Physical activity is associated not only with health-related parameters, but also with cognitive and academic performance. However, no large scale school-based physical activity interventions have investigated ... -
Energy expenditure compared to physical activity measured by accelerometry and self-report in adolescents: A validation study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-11-04)Background: Physical inactivity is responsible for 5.3 million deaths annually worldwide. To measure physical activity energy expenditure, the doubly labeled water (DLW) method is the gold standard. However, questionnaires ... -
Estimation of free-living energy expenditure by heart rate and movement sensing: a doubly-labelled water study.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-09-08)Background: Accurate assessment of energy expenditure (EE) is important for the study of energy balance and metabolic disorders. Combined heart rate (HR) and acceleration (ACC) sensing may increase precision of physical ... -
Health-related aspects of objectively measured daily physical activity in children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-02-03)It is well established that physical inactivity in adults is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Whether daily physical activity level is related to risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in children ... -
How many days are needed to estimate wrist-worn accelerometry-assessed physical activity during the second trimester in pregnancy?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Objective methods to measure physical activity (PA) can lead to better cross-cultural comparisons, monitoring temporal PA trends, and measuring the effect of interventions. However, when applying this technology ... -
Joint associations of physical activity and sedentary time with adiposity during adolescence: ALSPAC
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: In developing evidence-based physical activity (PA) guidelines for youth, a knowledge gap exists regarding the health effects of sedentary time (SED). The aim of this study was to determine the joint associations ... -
Longitudinal change in physical activity and adiposity in the transition from adolescence to early adulthood: The 1993 Pelotas cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: In the current Physical Activity Guidelines (PAG) for moderate- and vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA), abrupt transition from ≥ 60 min/day [youth PAG] to ≥ 150 min/week (≥ 22 min/day on average) [adult ... -
Number of days required to estimate physical activity constructs objectively measured in different age groups: Findings from three Brazilian (Pelotas) population-based birth cohorts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Purpose: The present study aims to estimate the minimum number of accelerometer measurement days needed to estimate habitual physical activity (PA) among 6- (2010), 18- (2011) and 30- (2012) year-old participants, belonging ... -
Objectively measured daily physical activity related to cardiac size in young children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-08-05)Training studies in children have suggested that endurance training can give enlargement of cardiac dimensions. This relationship has not been studied on a population-based level in young children with objective methods. ... -
Objectively measured habitual physical activity in 1997/1998 vs 2003/2004 in Danish children: The European Youth Heart Study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-02-17)Based on two cross-sectional studies conducted in 8–10-year-old third-grade children living in the municipality of Odense, potential differences were examined in the level of habitual physical activity (HPA) in Danish ... -
Organized sport participation is associated with higher levels of overall health-related physical activity in children (CHAMPS study-DK)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-08-11)Introduction: Many children fail to meet international guideline recommendations for health-related activity (≥60 minutes/day of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA]), and intervention studies to date have ... -
