Is device-measured vigorous physical activity associated with health-related outcomes in children and adolescents? A systematic review and meta-analysis
(Elsevier, 2021)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Objective: this study sought to analyze the prospective association between vigorous-intensity physical activity (VPA) and health-related outcomes in children and adolescents. Methods: studies reporting associations between ...
High intensity interval- vs resistance or combined-training for improving cardiometabolic health in overweight adults (cardiometabolic HIIT-RT study): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
(BioMed Central, 2016)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Although evidence shows the positive health effects of physical activity, most of the adult population
in Colombia are sedentary. It is, therefore, important to implement strategies that generate changes in ...

Objectives: the study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of EQ-5D-5L-Y and to compare the performance of EQ-5D-5L-Y with EQ-5D-3L-Y in children and adolescents. Methods: the Spanish versions of the 3L and 5L of ...
Aerobic capacity and future cardiovascular risk in Indian community from a low-income area in Cauca, Colombia
(BioMed Central, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Several studies indicates that children’s aerobic capacity levels are predictors of the future risk of
non-communicable diseases. Therefore, the aim of this study was to establish the proportion of subjects ...
Similar cardiometabolic effects of high- and moderate-intensity training among apparently healthy inactive adults: a randomized clinical trial
(BioMed Central, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) increases the risk of morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease,
and exercise training is an important factor in the treatment and prevention of the clinical components of ...
Prevalence of non-responders for glucose control markers after 10 weeks of high-intensity interval training in adult women with higher and lower insulin resistance
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Exercise training improves performance and biochemical parameters on average, but wide interindividual variability exists, with individuals classified as responders (R) or non-responders (NRs), especially between ...
Effects of 6-weeks high-intensity interval training in schoolchildren with insulin resistance: influence of biological maturation on metabolic, body composition, cardiovascular and performance non-responses
(Frontiers Media, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Previous studies have observed significant heterogeneity in the magnitude of change in measures of metabolic response to exercise training. There are a lack of studies examining the prevalence of non-responders ...

(PeerJ, 2017)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: there is a lack of instruments and studies written in Spanish evaluating physical fitness, impeding the determination of the current status of this important health indicator in the Latin population, especially ...
Physical fitness and anthropometric normative values among Colombian-Indian schoolchildren
(BioMed Central, 2016)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Background: Substantial evidence indicates that children’s physical fitness levels are markers of their lifestyles and their
cardio-metabolic health profile and are predictors of the future risk of chronic diseases such ...
