Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to examine the bidirectional longitudinal associations of several markers of fatness and physical fitness in adolescents with Down syndrome.

Methods: This study comprised a total of 111 adolescents (41 females), aged from 11 to 20 years with complete data at the baseline. We had a drop-out of <10% from the baseline to the 2-year follow-up. The ALPHA health-related fitness test battery for youth was used.

Results: Our results show that all fatness variables at the baseline were associated with a 2-year change in cardiorespiratory fitness (β ranging from -0.32 to -0.38; all p < .05), but not with muscular and motor fitness (p > .05). However, no associations were found between physical fitness components as predictors and fatness indicators (p > .05).

Conclusions: Results suggest that reducing fatness during adolescence might represent a modifiable factor to improve cardiorespiratory fitness at the 2-year follow-up, but not vice versa since associations were not bidirectional.

唐氏综合症青少年肥胖与体质的双向纵向关联。纵向纵向研究。

背景:本研究的目的是研究唐氏综合症青少年中几种肥胖和身体健康标志物的双向纵向关联。方法:本研究共纳入111例青少年(女性41例)，年龄11 ~ 20岁，基线资料完整。我们的结果显示，基线时的所有肥胖变量都与2年的心肺适能变化相关(β范围从-0.32到-0.38;p < 0.05)。然而，身体健康成分作为预测因子与肥胖指标之间没有关联(p > 0.05)。结论:结果表明，在2年随访中，青少年时期减少肥胖可能是改善心肺健康的一个可改变因素，但反之则不然，因为相关不是双向的。
