Associations of childhood physical activity and screen time with cardiometabolic health in preteens who were born to mothers with previous macrosomic delivery: Findings from the ROLO longitudinal birth cohort study
Authors' conclusion
Higher preteen PA may have potential benefits for cardiometabolic health, irrespective of birthweight.
Study context
- Population
- Preteens (9–11-year-olds) born to mothers who previously delivered an infant with macrosomia (birthweight ≥4 kg), ROLO study
- Participants
- 402 participants
- Comparison
- Childhood physical activity (PA) and screen time (ST) in relation to preteen cardiometabolic outcomes
- Primary endpoint
- Preteen cardiometabolic outcomes:
- Anthropometry
- DXA
- Blood pressure
- Heart rate
- Cardiorespiratory endurance
- Blood biomarkers
- Follow-up
- 9-11 years
Methodological detailscrude and adjusted linear regression
- Crude and adjusted linear regression
Primary result
As reported in the abstract
Associations of PA and ST with preteen cardiometabolic outcomes
Higher preteen PA and sum of skinfolds
adjusted B −3.00
95% CI −5.98, −0.02p = 0.048
Higher preteen PA and cardiorespiratory endurance
adjusted B 0.50
95% CI 0.20, 0.80p = 0.001
