Correlates of accelerometer-assessed physical activity in pregnancy?: The 2015 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort Study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Objective methods to measure physical activity (PA) have become available and widely used given the high degree of precision to evaluate PA. However, few studies have used accelerometers to measure PA during pregnancy, ... -
Do pregnant women follow exercise guidelines?: Prevalence data among 3482 women, and prediction of low-back pain, pelvic girdle pain and depression
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-08-17)Purpose: We describe exercise level in mid-pregnancy, associated sociodemographic variables, and investigate the association between exercise in mid-pregnancy and subsequent low-back pain, pelvic girdle pain and depression ... -
The effect of urinary incontinence status during pregnancy and delivery mode on incontinence postpartum. A cohort study.
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-02-11)Objective The objectives of this study were to investigate prevalence of urinary incontinence at 6 months postpartum and to study how continence status during pregnancy and mode of delivery influence urinary incontinence ... -
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 ... -
Functional tests should be accentuated more in the decision
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-04-22)A high pre-injury activity level, the desire of the patient to continue pivoting sports and fear of future give-way episodes are considered the most significant factors affecting the decision to perform anterior cruciate ... -
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 ... -
Intrinsic risk factors for groin injuries among male soccer players : a prospective cohort study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-08-10)BACKGROUND: This study was conducted to determine if risk factors for groin injuries among male soccer players could be identified. HYPOTHESIS: Previous groin injuries, reduced function scores, age, findings on clinical ... -
Is vigorous-intensity physical activity required for improving bone mass in adolescence?: Findings from a Brazilian birth cohort
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Summary: The association between moderate and vigorous physical activity throughout adolescence and areal bone density (aBMD) at 18 years of age was evaluated. Vigorous-intensity physical activity at 11, 15, and 18 years ... -
Left vocal cord paralysis, lung function and exercise capacity in young adults born extremely preterm with a history of neonatal patent ductus arteriosus surgery: A national cohort study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: Left vocal cord paralysis (LVCP) is a known complication of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) surgery in extremely preterm (EP) born neonates; however, consequences of LVCP beyond the first year of life are ... -
Long-term leisure-time physical activity and risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality: Dose-response associations in a prospective cohort study of 210 327 Taiwanese adults
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Objectives: We aimed to investigate the dose–response associations of long-term leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) obtained from repeated measures with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality outcomes in ... -
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 physical activity and sedentary time in young adults born preterm—The ESTER study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Young adults born preterm have higher levels of cardio metabolic risk factors and they report less physical activity than their peers born at term. Physical activity provides important cardio metabolic health ... -
