Associations Between Objectively-measured Physical Activity And Clustered Cvd Risk In Adolescents: Nhanes 2003-2006

Added on July 27th, 2010

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is accelerated by the clustering of CVD risk factors/metabolic syndrome, which in adults is strongly associated to physical activity (PA). However, this association has not been...   Continue Reading >>>

Association between waist circumference, metabolic syndrome score and HOMA-lR in the severely obese: no evidence of effect modification by physical activity

Added on July 27th, 2010

Introduction: It is unclear whether physical activity (PA) confounds the association between waist circumference (WC) and obesity related risk in the severely obese. Methods: Severely obese outpatients (n=42) from...   Continue Reading >>>

Accelerometer-Determined Lifestyle Activity, Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors and Metabolic Syndrome

Added on July 14th, 2010

Many studies have examined the relationship between moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and abnormal cardiovascular risk factors (CRF) or metabolic syndrome (MetSyn). However, the independent effects of lower intensity lifestyle...   Continue Reading >>>
