          Abstract

          Resumen Objetivo: Identificar diferencias en los componentes de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud (CVRS) según los niveles de aptitud cardiorrespiratoria en una muestra de adolescentes de 3 ciudades localizadas en Argentina, Brasil y Chile. Métodos: Se aplicó el cuestionario Kidscreen-52 a 1357 adolescentes con edades entre 12-17 años (48.6% chicos) en muestras seleccionadas en los 3 países. Los niveles de aptitud cardiorrespiratoria fueron determinados mediante la estimación del consumo máximo de oxígeno (VO2máx). Se utilizó el análisis de la varianza univariada y multivariada para identificar diferencias entre los niveles de aptitud cardiorrespiratoria en cada componente de CVRS. Resultados: Los datos referentes al VO2máx y a los componentes de CVRS revelaron diferencias significativas entre sexos, edades y ciudades/países de origen de los adolescentes. Fueron identificadas diferencias significativas en la mayoría de los componentes de CVRS favorables a los adolescentes que presentaron mayores niveles de aptitud cardiorrespiratoria, diferencias que se acentuaron con el aumento de los registros de VO2máx. Las diferencias observadas en algunos de los componentes de CVRS favorables a los chicos fueron disminuidas o incluso revertidas cuando se compararon ambos sexos en el estrato más elevado de aptitud cardiorrespiratoria. Conclusiones: Las evidencias encontradas señalaron asociaciones consistentes entre resultados más elevados de VO2máx y los indicadores favorables de CVRS, sugiriendo que la aptitud cardiorrespiratoria pueda ser empleada no solamente para alcanzar metas fisiológicas de salud de los adolescentes, sino también de bienestar psicológico, emocional y social.

          Resumo Objetivo: Identificar diferenças em componentes da qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde (QVRS), de acordo com níveis de aptidão cardiorrespiratória em uma amostra de adolescentes de 3 cidades localizadas na Argentina, Brasil e Chile. Métodos: Foi aplicado o questionário Kidscreen-52 em 1357 adolescentes com idades entre 12-17 anos (48.6% de rapazes) em amostras selecionadas nos 3 países. Os níveis de aptidão cardiorrespiratória foram determinados mediante a estimativa do consumo máximo de oxigênio (VO2máx). Utilizaram-se as análises de variância univariada e multivariada para identificar diferenças entre os níveis de aptidão cardiorrespiratória em cada um dos componentes de QVRS. Resultados: Os dados equivalentes ao VO2máx e aos componentes de QVRS revelaram diferenças significativas entre sexos, idades e cidades/países de origem dos adolescentes. Foram identificadas diferenças significativas na maioria dos componentes de QVRS favoráveis aos adolescentes que apresentaram maiores níveis de aptidão cardiorrespiratória, diferenças que se acentuaram com o aumento dos valores de VO2máx. As diferenças observadas em alguns dos componentes de QVRS favoráveis aos rapazes foram reduzidas ou revertidas quando se compararam ambos os sexos no estrato mais elevado de aptidão cardiorrespiratória. Conclusão: As evidências encontradas sinalizam associações consistentes entre resultados mais elevados de VO2máx e indicadores favoráveis de QVRS, sugerindo que a aptidão cardiorrespiratória pode ser aplicada, não somente para alcançar metas fisiológicas de saúde dos adolescentes, mas também de bem-estar psicológico, emocional e social.

          Abstract Objective: To identify differences in the components of health-related quality of life (HRQL) across cardiorespiratory fitness in samples of adolescents from three cities in Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. Method: The Kidscreen-52 questionnaire was administered to 1357 adolescents between 12 and 17 years of age (48.6% of them male) in selected samples in the three countries. Cardiorespiratory fitness was measured by the estimation of the maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Univariate and multivariate analysis of variation was used to identify differences between cardiorespiratory fitness for each component of HRQL. Results: The data showed significant differences between sex, age and cities/countries of origin of adolescents. Significant differences were identified in most HRQL components favorable to adolescents who had higher cardiorespiratory fitness levels, becoming more pronounced with an increase of VO2max scores. Differences in some HRQL components in favor of male were reduced or reversed when comparing both sexes in the higher strata of cardiorespiratory fitness. Conclusion: The evidence indicates consistent association between higher VO2max and favorable indicators of HRQL, suggesting that cardiorespiratory fitness can be used not only to achieve physiology targets of the adolescent health, but also psychological, emotional and social well-being.

          Physical activity level and health-related quality of life in the general adult population: a systematic review.

          Little is known regarding health-related quality of life and its relation with physical activity level in the general population. Our primary objective was to systematically review data examining this relationship. We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and PsycINFO for health-related quality of life and physical activity related keywords in titles, abstracts, or indexing fields. From 1426 retrieved references, 55 citations were judged to require further evaluation. Fourteen studies were retained for data extraction and analysis; seven were cross-sectional studies, two were cohort studies, four were randomized controlled trials and one used a combined cross sectional and longitudinal design. Thirteen different methods of physical activity assessment were used. Most health-related quality of life instruments related to the Medical Outcome Study SF-36 questionnaire. Cross-sectional studies showed a consistently positive association between self-reported physical activity and health-related quality of life. The largest cross-sectional study reported an adjusted odds ratio of "having 14 or more unhealthy days" during the previous month to be 0.40 (95% Confidence Interval 0.36-0.45) for those meeting recommended levels of physical activity compared to inactive subjects. Cohort studies and randomized controlled trials tended to show a positive effect of physical activity on health-related quality of life, but similar to the cross-sectional studies, had methodological limitations. Cross-sectional data showed a consistently positive association between physical activity level and health-related quality of life. Limited evidence from randomized controlled trials and cohort studies precludes a definitive statement about the nature of this association.

            Physical activity, cardiorespiratory fitness, and the metabolic syndrome in youth.

            The metabolic syndrome is defined as the coexistence of multiple cardiovascular and diabetes risk factors, the prevalence of which has increased dramatically in adult populations in the last decades. More recently, the same cluster of metabolic risk factors has also been recognized in children and adolescents. Epidemiological evidence suggests that high levels of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and physical activity are associated with a favorable metabolic risk profile in adults. However, in youth the role of these factors is less clear. Therefore, the purpose of this mini-review is to examine the recent evidence between objectively measured habitual physical activity and CRF with clustered metabolic risk in youth. In general, it appears that both physical activity and CRF are separately and independently associated with metabolic risk factors in youth, possibly through different causal pathways. Further research is necessary to quantify how much physical activity is needed to prevent the metabolic syndrome and the diseases with which it is associated. Public health approaches that encourage increased physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviors may prove useful in reducing the population burden associated with metabolic risk.

              Physical activity and health in adolescence.

              Adolescence represents a critical period of development during which personal lifestyle choices and behaviour patterns establish, including the choice to be physically active. Physical inactivity, sedentary behaviour and low cardiorespiratory fitness are strong risk factors for the development of chronic diseases with resulting morbidity and mortality, as well as economic burden to wider society from health and social care provision, and reduced occupational productivity. Worrying trends in adverse physical activity behaviours necessitate urgent and concerted action. Healthcare professionals caring for adolescents and young adults are ideally placed and suited to deliver powerful messages promoting physical activity and behaviour change. Every encounter represents an opportunity to ask about physical activity, provide advice, or signpost to appropriate pathways or opportunities. Key initial targets include getting everyone to reduce their sedentary behaviour and be more active, with even a little being more beneficial than none at all.
