Associations of volumes and patterns of physical activity with metabolic health in children: A multivariate pattern analysis approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Physical activity (PA) favorably affects metabolic health in children, but it is unclear how total volumes versus patterns (bouts and breaks) of PA relate to health. By means of multivariate pattern analysis that can handle ... -
Higher circulating plasma polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in fit and lean children: The European youth heart study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background: Lipophilic compounds such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are primarily stored in adipose tissue, but exercise-induced lipolysis is able to release PCBs from the adipose tissue into the circulation. The ... -
The multivariate physical activity signature associated with metabolic health in children and youth: An International Children's Accelerometry Database (ICAD) analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)There is solid evidence for an association between physical activity and metabolic health outcomes in children and youth, but for methodological reasons most studies describe the intensity spectrum using only a few summary ... -
Predictors of change differ for moderate and vigorous intensity physical activity and for weekdays and weekends: a longitudinal analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Background Predictors of physical activity (PA) change are rarely investigated separately for different PA intensities and for weekdays/weekends. We investigated whether individual-level predictors of one-year change ... -
The multivariate physical activity signature associated with metabolic health in children
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Physical activity is a cornerstone for promoting good metabolic health in children, but it is heavily debated which intensities (including sedentary time) are most influential. A fundamental limitation to current ... -
Variation in population levels of physical activity in European children and adolescents according to cross-European studies: a systematic literature review within DEDIPAC
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-06-28)Background: Regular physical activity is associated with physical, social and mental health benefits, whilst insufficient physical activity is associated with several negative health outcomes (e.g. metabolic problems). ... -
What is the role of cardiorespiratory fitness and sedentary behavior in relationship between the genetic predisposition to obesity and cardiometabolic risk score?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Genetic factors along with inadequate lifestyle habits are associated with the development of cardiometabolic alterations. Thus, the present study aimed to examine the role of sedentary behavior on the relationship ...
