(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-01-07)Aim: To describe cardiorespiratory fitness and body mass index (BMI) values in a representative population of 9-year-old Norwegian children in two rural communities and compare present values with previous findings. Methods: ... -
Changes in adolescents’ intake of sugarsweetened beverages and sedentary behaviour: results at 8 month mid-way assessment of the HEIA study - a comprehensive, multi-component school-based randomized trial
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-06-17)Background: Inconsistent effects of school-based obesity prevention interventions may be related to how different subgroups receive them. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of an intervention program, ... -
Changes in time-segment specific physical activity between ages 10 and 14 years: A longitudinal observational study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-01)Objectives: Describe (1) time-segment specific changes in physical activity (PA) into adolescence, (2) differences in change in PA between specific time-segments (weekdays–weekends, in-school–out-of-school, out-of-school–weekends, ... -
Clustering of cardiometabolic risk factors and the continuous cardiometabolic risk score in children from Southern Brazil: a cross-sectional study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Purpose: The present study aimed to verify the clustering of cardiometabolic risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and its relationship with the continuous cardiometabolic risk score (cMetS). Methods: Cross-sectional ... -
