Ítem Association between Creativity and Memory with Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Lifestyle among Chilean Schoolchildren(MDPI, 2021-05-25) Caamaño, Felipe; Latorre-Román, Pedro Ángel; Párraga, Juan Antonio; Álvarez-Lepín, Cristian; Delgado-Floody, PedroThe objective was to investigate the association between creativity and memory with cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF; i.e., CFR classification and VO2max); lifestyle parameters (i.e., physical activity (PA), sleep duration, screen time (ST), and food habits); and anthropometric measures (i.e., body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC)) among Chilean schoolchildren. A total of 248 schoolchildren (137 boys, 111 girls, 11.80 ± 1.17 and 11.58 ± 1.09 years, respectively) participated in the cross-sectional study. Creativity, memory, concentration, and selective attention and lifestyle (PA, ST, sleep duration, and Mediterranean diet (MD) adherence) were measured using a standard questionnaire. CRF (measured by the 20 m shuttle run test and expressed as maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) and anthropometric measures (BMI and WC) were also included. Creativity showed a positive association with VO2max (mL/kg/min) (β; 0.209, 95% CI; 0.02–0.40, p = p < 0.05) and MD Adherence (score) (β; 0.206, 95% CI; 0.01; 0.74, p = p < 0.05). Long-term memory reported a positive association with CRF (β; 1.076, 95% CI; 0.02–2.13, p = p < 0.05). An increase in CRF levels, together with healthy food habits and normal nutritional status, should be a target for community- and school-based interventions to promote cognitive development in creativity and memory among schoolchildren.Ítem Effect of COVID-19 confinement on physical activity patterns in relation to sociodemographic parameters in Spanish population(EDICIONI MINERVA MEDICA, 2021-05-24) Aragón-Vela, Jerónimo; Delgado-Floody, Pedro; Guzmán-Guzmán, Iris Paola; Salas-Sánchez, Jesús; Martínez-Redondo, Melchor; Lucena-Zurita, Manuel; Herrador-Sánchez, Julio; Cardona, Antonio José; Consuegra-González, Pedro José; Santos, María Aparecida; de-la-Casa, Ana; Caamaño, Felipe; Manjón, Daniel; Latorre-Sevilla, Carmen; Latorre-Román, Pedro Ángel; Párraga, Juan AntonioBACKGROUND: The main purpose of the present study was to determine the sociodemographic parameters associated to physical activity (PA) patterns changes during the COVID-19 lockdown in the Spanish population. METHODS: Participants were recruited by sending a survey through various social network channels via the snowball method. A voluntary sample of 2430 individuals consisting of 1203 men and 1227 women (aged between 18 to 73 years old) from the Spanish national territory participated in this study. An online survey was performed to collect the information, which was tested through ad hoc analysis with different sociodemographic variables. Participants were a median of 34 years old (18-73 years old) with a mean BMI of 23.6 kg/m2. RESULTS: The risk factors associated with the change in PA hours during confinement showed that to do sports (β=-56.88, 95% CI: -79.35 to -34.40, P<0.001), male sex (β -34.78, 95%CI;-54.02 to -15.52, P<0.001) and the educational level (i.e., elementary school category) (β=-54.21, 95%CI;-89.10 to -19.32, P=0.002) reported negative changes with hours of PA during confinement. By the contrary, the employment status (passive work) and to be student reported positive association (i.e., increase PA hours per week). CONCLUSIONS: The COVID-19 lockdown led to a reduction PA patterns in Spanish population. Mostly men showed a drastic decrease in hours of PA compared to the women’s group. Likewise, the groups of people with elementary and high education showed a decrease in hours of weekly PA, as well as unemployed peopleÍtem Healthy lifestyles and physical fitness are associated with abdominal obesity among Latin-American and Spanish preschool children: A cross-cultural study(WILEY, 2022) Latorre-Román, Pedro Ángel; Guzmán-Guzmán, Iris Paola; Párraga, Juan Antonio; Caamaño, Felipe; Salas-Sánchez, Jesús; Palomino, Constanza; Reyes-Oyola, Felipe Augusto; Álvarez-Lepín, Cristian; de-la-Casa, Ana; Cardona, Antonio José; Delgado-Floody, PedroBackground: Identifying environmental factors that influence health in children are necessary to develop preventive strategies. Objective: To determine the association between the lifestyles of children (i.e., Mediterranean diet (MD), physical activity (PA), fitness and screen time (ST) with abdominal obesity (AO) of preschoolers from three Spanish-speaking countries (Chile, Colombia and Spain) with different socioeconomic levels and Human Development Index (HDI) indicators. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 982 schoolchildren (aged 4–6 years; 56.8% girls) from Chile (n = 409), Colombia (n = 281), and Spain (n = 292). Body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-height ratio (WtHR), adherence to the MD, PA, ST and physical fitness were evaluated. Results: Spanish preschoolers reported a lower WtHR (p < 0.001), greater physical fitness (Z-score) (p < 0.001) and higher adherence to the MD (p < 0.001) than their Chilean and Colombian peers. In addition, Colombian preschoolers had a better lifestyle (PA + ST) than their Chilean and Spanish peers (p < 0.001). Chilean preschoolers reported a higher prevalence of AO than the Spanish preschoolers (65% vs. 51.9%; p = 0.001). Conclusion: Lifestyle had a significant association with AO among Spanish-speaking preschool children, with physical fitness especially being a relevant factor regardless of the country of origin. The findings of the current study may support the development of public guidelines focusing on healthy lifestyles in children to create effective plans that contribute to the early treatment of AO in preschool children.Ítem Response of obese schoolchildren to high-intensity interval training applied in the school context(Sociedad Española de Edocrinología y Nutrición, 2019) Espinoza-Silva, José Miguel; Latorre-Román, Pedro Ángel; Párraga, Juan Antonio; Caamaño, Felipe; Jerez-Mayorga, Daniel; Delgado-Floody, PedroBackground: High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has been widely used to fight cardiovascular risk factors in adolescents and adults, but no data are available on its applicability in children. Objective: To assess the effects of HIIT on different anthropometric and cardiovascular parameters of overweight and obese children aged 7---9 years. Subjects and methods: Four groups were formed: 1) an overweight control group (OWCG, n = 30, BMI = 21.60 ± 3.72 kg/m2), 2) an obesity control group (OCG, n =34, BMI = 23.92)±3.11 kg/m2), 3) an overweight intervention group (OWIG, n = 69, BMI = 20.01±1.88 kg/m2), and 4) an obesity intervention group (OIG, n = 141, BMI = 24.12±2.66 kg/m2). BMI, body fat (BF), waist circumference, height-waist ratio, systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) blood pressure and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF, were assessed before and after intervention. Results: There were significant differences in BMI (P < 0.001), BF (P < 0.001), and CRF (P < 0.001) between the groups (control vs intervention) before and after intervention (OWCG vs OWIG and OCG vs OIG). BMI decreased in the OWIG (BMI, 20.01±1.88 at baseline vs 19.00±2.02 after HIIT, P < 0.001) and OIG (BMI, 24.12±2.66 at baseline vs 23.23±3.23 after HIIT, P < 0.001) groups. Similarly, BF decreased in the OWIG (BF, 21.84±4.97 at baseline vs 19.55±4.81 % after HIIT, P < 0.001) and OIG (BF, 30.26 ±11.49 at baseline vs 26.81±6.80 % after HIIT, P < 0.001) groups. CRF improved in both intervention groups (P < 0.001). There was a significant decrease in the prevalence rate of schoolchildren with obesity (from 66.4% to 49.6%) (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The intervention conducted in the school setting improved the anthropometric and cardiovascular parameters of schoolchildren, and also allowed for reducing the proportion of schoolchildren with obesity.Ítem Selective Attention and Concentration Are Related to Lifestyle in Chilean Schoolchildren(MDPI, 2021-09-27) Caamaño, Felipe; Latorre-Román, Pedro Ángel; Párraga, Juan Antonio; Jerez-Mayorga, Daniel; Delgado-Floody, PedroThe objective of this investigation was to determine the association between selective attention and concentration with physical fitness (i.e., cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), VO2max, the standing long jump test (SLJ) and handgrip muscle strength (HGS)), lifestyle parameters (i.e., physical activity (PA) level, screen time (ST), sleep duration and food habits) and anthropometric measures (i.e., body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC)) among Chilean schoolchildren. Two hundred and forty-eight schoolchildren (137 boys, 111 girls, 11.80 ± 1.17 and 11.58 ± 1.09 years, respectively) participated. Selective attention, concentration and lifestyle (PA, ST, sleep duration and Mediterranean diet (MD) adherence) were determined using a standard questionnaire. CRF, SLJ, HGS and anthropometric indicators (BMI and WC) were also measured. Selective attention showed a positive association with MD adherence score (β; 5.012, p = p < 0.05). Concentration was linked inversely to ST (β; −5.498, p = p < 0.05). Likewise, concentration presented a positive association with MD adherence (β; 2.904, p = p < 0.05). In conclusion, children’s lifestyles are related to the selective attention and concentration of children; therefore, promoting healthy habits could be a cost-effective strategy in the promotion of cognitive development, as it relates to selective attention and concentration.
