A new approach to define and diagnose cardiometabolic disorder in children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The aim of the study was to test the performance of a new definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS), which better describes metabolic dysfunction in children. Methods. 15,794 youths aged 6–18 years participated. Mean z-score ... -
Accelerometer epoch setting is decisive for associations between physical activity and metabolic health in children
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)When analysing physical activity (PA) levels using accelerometry, the epoch setting is critical to capture intensity-specific PA correctly. The aim of the present study was to investigate the PA intensity signatures related ... -
Associations between objectively measured physical activity intensity in childhood and measures of subclinical cardiovascular disease in adolescence: prospective observations from the European Youth Heart Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-04-13)BACKGROUND AND AIM: No prospective studies have investigated the association between physical activity (PA) and carotid subclinical cardiovascular disease across childhood. Therefore, the primary aim was to investigate ... -
Associations of physical activity and sedentary time with body composition in Brazilian young adults
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The findings of studies on the association between physical activity and adiposity are not consistent, and most are cross-sectional and used only self-reported measures. The aims of this study were to evaluate: 1) independent ... -
Cardiorespiratory fitness assessment using risk-stratified exercise testing and dose–response relationships with disease outcomes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is associated with mortality and cardiovascular disease, but assessing CRF in the population is challenging. Here we develop and validate a novel framework to estimate CRF (as maximal oxygen ... -
Change of direction biomechanics in a 180-degree pivot turn and the risk for noncontact knee injuries in youth basketball and floorball players
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Background: Studies investigating biomechanical risk factors for knee injuries in sport-specific tasks are needed.Purpose:To investigate the association between change of direction (COD) biomechanics in a 180-degree pivot ... -
Cross-Sectional Associations of Reallocating Time Between Sedentary and Active Behaviours on Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Young People : An International Children’s Accelerometry Database (ICAD) Analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Introduction Sedentary time and time spent in various intensity-specific physical activity are co-dependent, and increasing time spent in one behaviour requires decreased time in another. Objective The aim of the present ... -
Cytokines and clustered cardiovascular risk factors in children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-04)The aim was to evaluate the possible role of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP), low fitness, and fatness in the early development of clustering of cardiovascular disease (CVD) ... -
Does physical activity attenuate, or even eliminate, the detrimental association of sitting time with mortality? A harmonised meta-analysis of data from more than 1 million men and women
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-09)Background: High amounts of sedentary behaviour have been associated with increased risks of several chronic conditions and mortality. However, it is unclear whether physical activity attenuates or even eliminates the ... -
Does surgery reduce knee osteoarthritis, meniscal injury and subsequent complications compared with non-surgery after ACL rupture with at least 10 years follow-up? A systematic review and meta-analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Objective: We compared long-term follow-up from surgical versus non-surgical treatment of ACL rupture regarding radiographic knee osteoarthritis (OA), secondary surgery, laxity and patient-reported outcome measures ... -
ECSS Position Statement 2009: prevention of acute sports injuries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-06-09)To maximize the health benefits of sports and exercise and to minimize the direct and indirect costs associated with injuries, developing and adopting injury prevention strategies is an important goal. The aim of this ECSS ... -
Gender-specific mediators of the association between parental education and adiposity among adolescents: The HEIA study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Identifying the mechanisms behind socioeconomic inequalities in adiposity among youth is vital for efforts aimed at combating these inequalities. The study explored whether a broad range of behavioral and familial factors ... -
Genetic variation in candidate genes and patellar tendinopathy: Prospective cohort study of 126 elite volleyball players
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Variation in genes coding for structural proteins may represent risk factors for developing tendinopathy among athletes. The purpose of this prospective cohort study of elite volleyball students was to investigate whether ... -
Global physical activity levels: surveillance progress, pitfalls, and prospects
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-07-18)To implement effective non-communicable disease prevention programmes, policy makers need data for physical activity levels and trends. In this report, we describe physical activity levels worldwide with data for adults ... -
Global, regional, and national burden of low back pain, 1990–2020, its attributable risk factors, and projections to 2050: A systematic analysis of the Global burden of disease study 2021
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background: Low back pain is highly prevalent and the main cause of years lived with disability (YLDs). We present the most up-to-date global, regional, and national data on prevalence and YLDs for low back pain from the ... -
