    Handgrip Strength and Ideal Cardiovascular Health among Colombian Children and Adolescents
    (2016) Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson; Tordecilla Sanders, María Alejandra; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Peterson, Mark D.; Garcia-Hermoso, Antonio
    Objective To evaluate the association between handgrip strength and ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) in Colombian children and adolescents. Study design During the 2014-2015 school years, we examined a cross-sectional component of the FUPRECOL (Association for Muscular Strength with Early Manifestation of Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors among Colombian Children and Adolescents) study. Participants included 1199 (n?=?627 boys) youths from Bogota (Colombia). Handgrip strength was measured with a standard adjustable hand held dynamometer and expressed relative to body mass (handgrip/body mass) and as absolute values in kilograms. Ideal CVH, as defined by the American Heart Association, was determined as meeting ideal levels of the following components: 4 behaviors (smoking status, body mass index, cardiorespiratory fitness, and diet) and 3 factors (total cholesterol, blood pressure, and glucose). Results Higher levels of handgrip strength (both absolute and relative values) were associated with a higher frequency of ideal CVH metrics in both sexes (P for trend ?.001). Also, higher levels of handgrip strength were associated with a greater number of ideal health behaviors (P for trend less than .001 in both boys and girls), and with a higher number of ideal health factors in boys (P for trend less than .001). Finally, levels of handgrip strength were similar between ideal versus nonideal glucose or total cholesterol groups in girls. Conclusions Handgrip strength was strongly associated with ideal CVH in Colombian children and adolescents, and thus supports the relevance of early targeted interventions to promote strength adaptation and preservation as part of primordial prevention. © 2016 Elsevier Inc.

    Reference values for standing broad jump in colombian schoolchildren the fuprecol study: 2767 board #290 June 3, 930 AM - 1100 AM
    (2016-05) Vivas, Andres; González-Ruíz, Katherine; Benavides Rodríguez, Lorena; Camelo-Prieto, Diana Lorena; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson
    PURPOSE: Muscular power refers to the ability to perform high-intensity exercise for a fraction of a second to several minutes. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop age-and sex-specific normative reference values for lower-body muscular power assessed by the standing broad jump (SBJ) in Colombian schoolchildren. METHODS: A total of 7244 children and adolescents (55.7% girls, with a sample age range of 9-17.9 years) completed the SBJ test (median age, in years = 12.8 (SD 2.3); 25th-75th percentile: 11.0-15.0. The distance between takeoff and the heel of the closest foot at landing was recorded in centimeters, and participants were allowed one more try if they landed with their hands behind their feet. Smoothed percentile curves and tables for the 3rd, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th and 97th percentiles were calculated using Cole’s LMS method. RESULTS: The one-way ANOVA tests showed that maximum SBJ (cm) was higher in boys than in girls (p<0.01). Post hoc analyses within sexes showed yearly increases in SBJ scores in all ages. In boys, the maximum SBJ scores 50th percentile ranged from 110 to 165 cm. In girls, the 50th percentile ranged from SBJ scores was 96 to 120. Both linear and quadratic age terms were statistically significant predictors of SBJ trends across age. CONCLUSIONS: Our results provide reference standards for sex- and age-specific SBJ scores in Colombian schoolchildren aged 9-17.9 years for the first time. The proposed reference values can be used to interpret SBJ scores in Colombian schoolchildren.

    Handgrip strength attenuates the adverse effects of overweight on cardiometabolic risk factors among collegiate students but not in individuals with higher fat levels
    (2019) Garcia-Hermoso, Antonio; Tordecilla Sanders, María Alejandra; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Peterson, Mark D.; Izquierdo, Mikel; Prieto-Benavides, Daniel; Sandoval-Cuellar, Carolina; González-Ruíz, Katherine; Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson
    The aims of this study are to (i) examine a clustered metabolic syndrome composite score (MetScore) and fatness among college students across body mass index (BMI) categories, and (ii) determine whether fit individuals have lower MetScores, fewer individual metabolic syndrome components, and lower fatness than unfit individuals across BMI categories. A total of 1,795 participants aged >18 years who participated in The FUPRECOL Study were selected for the present analyses. Handgrip strength was tested by a grip dynamometer and used to classify adults as fit or unfit. Among all participants, MetScore, percentage of body fat, and visceral adiposity increased linearly across the BMI categories among college students (all P less than 0.001). Individuals who were overweight and fit had a lower MetScore (?0.6 SD; P = 0.02), body fat percentage (?2.6%; P less than 0.001) and visceral adiposity (?0.2; P = 0.01) than unfit peers. Moderately fit obese individuals had significantly lower visceral fat levels than unfit obese peers (?3.0; P = 0.03). These results suggest that having adequate handgrip strength-a proxy of overall strength capacity-may attenuate obesity-related cardiometabolic risk. Moreover, weight loss should be recommended to all individuals with obesity, even among those who are currently considered fit. © 2019, The Author(s).

    (2014) Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson; González-Ruíz, Katherine; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Estrada, Yisel Carolina; Meneses, Jose Francisco; Gomez, María Victoria
    Introducción: las asociaciones inversas con la aptitud muscular y la prevalencia de obesidad se han informado previamente en estudios transversales. Sin embargo, esta asociación no ha sido reportada en la población latinoamericana. Para examinar las relaciones entre la aptitud muscular con diferentes índices de gordura en individuos jóvenes Métodos: un total de 2,374 hombres jóvenes (edad 23.3 ± 2.3 años; peso 61.2 ± 11.3 kg; IMC 22.5 ± 3.6 kg / m-1) fueron invitados a participar en el estudio. Todas las asignaturas eran de Bogotá (Colombia) y pertenecen a diferentes universidades (públicas y privadas). No tenían indicios de problemas cardiometabólicos, según lo evaluado en la entrevista. La aptitud muscular se midió mediante una empuñadura isométrica (dinamómetro) con los participantes colocados en cuartiles de fuerza. El índice de gordura se evaluó midiendo, circunferencia de cintura (WC), índice de adiposidad corporal (BAI), índice de masa corporal (IMC) e índice de tamaño de cintura (WSI). Las variables dicotómicas se crearon en función de si los sujetos tenían o no la fuerza muscular más baja (Q1) para el índice de gordura evaluado. La regresión logística se usó para estimar los odds ratios ajustados multivariados (OR) y sus intervalos de confianza (IC) del 95%. Resultados: Un análisis de regresión logística ajustado mostró que estar en Q1 se asoció con un WC> 90 cm (OR, 3.27; IC del 95%, 2.47 a 4.33), BAI> 20 (OR, 5.74; IC del 95%, 4.45 a 7.40 ); IMC> 26 kg / m-1 (OR, 1.83; IC 95%, 1.37 a 2.45). Conclusión: El hallazgo clave de nuestro estudio es que la aptitud muscular está inversamente asociada con el índice de gordura. Entre los jóvenes, se deben evitar los bajos niveles de condición física muscular para la prevención primaria de enfermedades cardiovasculares.

    Waist circumference distribution in Colombian schoolchildren and adolescents: The FUPRECOL Study
    (2016) Caicedo-Álvarez, Juan Carlos; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; González-Jiménez, Emilio; Schmidt-RioValle, Jacqueline; Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson
    Objective This study was intended to establish the percentile distribution of waist circumference in schoolchildren from Bogota, Colombia, participating in the FUPRECOL Study. Methods A cross-sectional study conducted in 3,005 children and 2,916 adolescents aged 9 to 17.9 years. Height, weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, and self-assessed sexual maturity status were recorded. Percentiles (3rd, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th, and 97th) and smoothed sex- and age-specific curves were calculated, and the waist circumference values found were compared to international references from other ethnic populations. Results Fifty-seven percent of the overall population (n = 5,921) were females (mean age, 12.7 ± 2.3 years). In most age groups, waist circumference was greater in boys as compared to girls. The increase between the 50th and 97th percentiles by age was 15.7 cm in boys aged 9 to 9.9 years and 16.0 cm in girls aged 11-11.9 years. Comparison of our study results, by age group and sex, to international references showed that our 50th percentile was lower than reported in Peru and the UK except for studies in India, Venezuela (Merida), US, and Spain was higher. Conclusions Age- and sex-specific percentiles of waist circumference obtained from children and adolescents from Bogota, Colombia, are reported. They may be used as a reference both for nutritional assessment and for predicting cardiovascular risks at early ages. © 2016 SEEN

    Low cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with elevated adiposity markers among children and adolescents from bogotá, colombia. the fuprecol study: 852 Board #168 June 1, 330 PM - 500 PM
    (2016-05) Prieto-Benavides, Daniel Humberto; Rodrigues-Bezerra, Diogo; Benavides Rodríguez, Lorena; Martínez-Torres, Javier; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson
    PURPOSE: Low cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is independent risk factors for future cardio-metabolic disease in children and adolescents. The fitness versus fatness relationship has not been studied in a population-based sample in Latin America. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between the CRF with adiposity markers among children and adolescents from Bogotá, Colombia. METHODS: Cross-sectional study in 7,960 healthy Colombian youth (boys n=3,462 and girls n=4,494) residents in the metropolitan area of the District of Bogotá, Colombia (2480msnm). CRF was assessed with the 20-meter shuttle run test. Waist circumference (WC), body fat percentage-BF%, ? skinfolds thicknesses (triceps + subscapular), body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) were used as indicators of adiposity. RESULTS: After adjusting for sex, age and sexual maturation, significant inverse relationships were observed between CRF and BMI (r = -0.360), BF% (r = -0.387), ? skinfolds (r = -0.417), WC (r = - 0.258) and WHtR (r = -0.201), p < .001. CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that high aerobic capacity is associated with less adiposity markers. Increasing CRF should be targets in youth primordial prevention strategies of future cardio-metabolic disease in adulthood.

    Normative reference values for the 20 m shuttle-run test in a population-based sample of school-aged youth in Bogota, Colombia: the FUPRECOL study
    (2017) Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson; Palacios-López, Adalberto; Prieto Benavides, Daniel Humberto; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Izquierdo, Mikel; Alonso-Martínez, Alicia; Lobelo, Felipe
    Objectives: Our aim was to determine the normative reference values of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and to establish the proportion of subjects with low CRF suggestive of future cardio-metabolic risk. Methods: A total of 7244 children and adolescents attending public schools in Bogota, Colombia (55.7% girls; age range of 9–17.9 years) participated in this study. We expressed CRF performance as the nearest stage (minute) completed and the estimated peak oxygen consumption (V?O2peak). Smoothed percentile curves were calculated. In addition, we present the prevalence of low CRF after applying a correction factor to account for the impact of Bogota's altitude (2625 m over sea level) on CRF assessment, and we calculated the number of participants who fell below health-related FITNESSGRAM cut-points for low CRF. Results: Shuttles and V?O2peak were higher in boys than in girls in all age groups. In boys, there were higher levels of performance with increasing age, with most gains between the ages of 13 and 17. The proportion of subjects with a low CRF, suggestive of future cardio-metabolic risk (health risk FITNESSGRAM category) was 31.5% (28.2% for boys and 34.1% for girls; X2 P =.001). After applying a 1.11 altitude correction factor, the overall prevalence of low CRF was 11.5% (9.6% for boys and 13.1% for girls; X2 P =.001). Conclusions: Our results provide sex- and age-specific normative reference standards for the 20 m shuttle-run test and estimated V?O2peak values in a large, population-based sample of schoolchildren from a large Latin-American city at high altitude. © 2016 The Authors American Journal of Human Biology Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    Cycling to School and Body Composition, Physical Fitness, and Metabolic Syndrome in Children and Adolescents
    (2017) Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson; García-Hermoso, Antonio; Agostinis-Sobrinho, Cesar; Mota, Jorge; Santos, Rute; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; Amaya-Tambo, Deisy Constanza; Villa-González, Emilio
    Objective To evaluate the association between cycling to/from school and body composition, physical fitness, and metabolic syndrome among a sample of Colombian children and adolescents. Study design During the 2014-2015 school year, we examined a cross-sectional component of the Association for muscular strength with early manifestation of cardiovascular disease risk factors among Colombian children and adolescents (FUPRECOL) study. Participants included 2877 youths (54.5% girls) from Bogota, Colombia. A self-reported questionnaire was used to measure the frequency and mode of commuting to school. Four components of physical fitness were measured: (1) anthropometric (height, weight, body mass index, and waist circumference); (2) musculoskeletal (handgrip and standing long jump test); (3) motor (speed-agility test; 4 × 10-meter shuttle run); and (4) cardiorespiratory (20-m shuttle run test [20mSRT]). The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was determined by the definitions provided by the International Diabetes Federation. Results Twenty-three percent of the sample reported commuting by cycle. Active commuting boys had a likelihood of having an unhealthy 4 × 10 m value (OR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.53-0.98; P =.038) compared with the reference group (passive commuters). Active commuting girls showed a lower likelihood of having unhealthy a 20mSRT value (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.56-0.99; P =.047) and metabolic syndrome (OR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.35-0.99; P =.048) compared with passive commuters. Conclusion Regular cycling to school may to be associated with better physical fitness and a lower incidence of metabolic syndrome than passive transport, especially in girls. © 2017 Elsevier Inc.

    Normative data for calcaneal broadband ultrasound attenuation among children and adolescents from Colombia: the FUPRECOL Study
    (2016) Ramírez-Vélez, Robinson; Ojeda-Pardo, Mónica Liliana; Correa Bautista, Jorge Enrique; González-Ruíz, Katherine; Navarro-Pérez, Carmen Flores; González-Jiménez, Emilio; Schmidt-RioValle, Jacqueline; Izquierdo, Mikel; Lobelo, Felipe
    Summary: Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) has been found to be a safe and reliable method for evaluating bone mineral density (BMD). Using calcaneal QUS techniques, the current study contributes to remedying this gap in the literature by establishing normative data among children and adolescents from Colombia. Introduction: Minimal data on BMD changes are available from populations in developing countries. BMD reference values for children and adolescents have not been published for a Latin-American population. The aim of this study was to establish a normal reference range of calcaneal broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) in Colombian children and adolescents with ages ranging from 9 to 17.9 years. Methods: A sample of 1001 healthy Colombian youth (boys n = 445 and girls n = 556), children, and adolescents (9–17.9 years old) participated in the study. A calcaneus QUS parameter (BUA) was obtained for boys and girls, stratified by age group. Furthermore, height, weight, fat mass percentage, and body mass index were measured. Centile smoothed curves for the third, tenth, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th, and 97th percentiles were calculated using the LMS method (L [curve Box–Cox], M [curve median], and S [curve coefficient of variation]). Results: Mean (± SD) values for the participants’ anthropometric data were 12.9 ± 2.3 years of age, 45.2 ± 11.5 kg weight, 1.51 ± 0.1 m height, 19.5 ± 3.1 kg/m2 BMI, and 69.5 ± 17.1 dB/MHz BUA. Overall, all variables were significantly higher in boys except in BMI and body fat percentage. Girls generally had higher mean calcaneal BUA (dB/MHz) values than the boys, except in the age ranges 16 and 17.9, p and gt; 0.05. In addition, the BUA (dB/MHz) increased with age throughout childhood and adolescence and reached a plateau by age 15–17.9 for girls. Conclusions: For the first time, our results provide sex- and age-specific BUA reference values for Colombian children and adolescents aged 9–17.9 years. A more specific set of reference values is useful for clinicians and researchers and informs clinical practice to monitor bone mineral status. © 2015, International Osteoporosis Foundation and National Osteoporosis Foundation.
