A 3-year physical activity intervention program increases the gain in bone mineral and bone width in prepubertal girls but not boys: the Prospective Copenhagen School Child Interventions Study (CoSCIS)
Hasselstrøm, Henriette A.; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Hansen, Stig Eiberg; Grønfeldt, Vivian; Froberg, Karsten; Andersen, Lars Bo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-10-07)The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of increasing the amount of time spent in physical education classes on bone mineral accrual and gain in bone size in prepubertal Danish children. A total of 135 boys and ... -
Aerobic fitness related to cardiovascular risk factors in young children
Dencker, Magnus; Thorsson, Ola; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Lindén, Christian; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-12-13)Low aerobic fitness (maximum oxygen uptake (VO2PEAK)) is predictive for poor health in adults. In a cross-sectional study, we assessed if VO2PEAK is related to a composite risk factor score for cardiovascular disease (CVD) ... -
Body fat related to daily physical activity and insulin concentrations in non-diabetic children
Dencker, Magnus; Thorsson, Ola; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Lindén, Christian; Eiberg, Stig; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo; Ahrén, Bo (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 ... -
Cystatin B, cathepsin L and D related to surrogate markers for cardiovascular disease in children
Dencker, Magnus; Tanha, Tina; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo; Thorsson, Ola (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Objective: This study investigated potential associations between novel biomarkers for cardiovascular disease and other surrogate markers for health. Methods: Community sample of 170 (92 boys and 78 girls) children aged ... -
Daily physical activity related to aerobic fitness and body fat in an urban sample of children
Dencker, Magnus; Thorsson, Ola; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Lindén, Christian; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-02-03)This study evaluates associations between objectively measured daily physical activity vs aerobic fitness and body fat in children aged 8–11 years. A cross-sectional study of 225 children aged 7.9–11.1 years was performed. ... -
Galectin-3 levels relate in children to total body fat, abdominal fat, body fat distribution, and cardiac size
Dencker, Magnus; Arvidsson, Daniel; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo; Thorsson, Ola (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Galectin-3 has recently been proposed as a novel biomarker for cardiovascular disease in adults. The purpose of this investigation was to assess relationships between galectin-3 levels and total body fat, abdominal fat, ... -
Maximal oxygen uptake versus maximal power output in children
Dencker, Magnus; Thorsson, Ola; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Lindén, Christian; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-11)Maximal oxygen uptake ([Vdot]O2max) is considered the optimal method to assess aerobic fitness. The measurement of [Vdot]O2max, however, requires special equipment and training. Maximal exercise testing with determination ... -
Objectively measured daily physical activity related to cardiac size in young children
Dencker, Magnus; Thorsson, Ola; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Lindén, Christian; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo (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. ... -
Total body fat, abdominal fat, body fat distribution and surrogate markers for health related to adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (FABP4) in children
Dencker, Magnus; Danielson, Anton; Karlsson, Magnus K.; Wollmer, Per; Andersen, Lars Bo; Thorsson, Ola (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017-01-13)Background: The aim of the study was to assess possible relationships between adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (FABP4) and total body fat (TBF), abdominal fat, body fat distribution, aerobic fitness, blood pressure, ...
