Addressing this gap, we developed and assessed a brief cognitive-behavioral internet-delivered intervention targeting anxiety and depression symptoms in Brazilian youth.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We conducted a single-blind, two-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial in youth aged 8-17 with a total T-score ≥70 on the 25-item version of the Revised Children's Anxiety and Depression Scale, parent (RCADS-P) and child report (RCADS-C). Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to cognitive-behavioral intervention (5 weekly sessions conducted by videoconference focused on skills training) or psychoeducation. Sessions were conducted with youth and their caregivers jointly. Participants were assessed at baseline, at post-treatment and at the 30-day follow-up. The primary outcome was the change from baseline to post-treatment on RCADS-P and RCADS-C scores. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05139433.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Between October 15, 2021, and February 27, 2023, 280 participants were randomized, with 231 completing post-treatment and 214 completing follow-up assessments. In comparison to participants in the psychoeducation group, participants in the intervention group showed greater reductions in emotional symptoms according to youths (mean difference = 4.3, p = .013, standardized mean difference (SMD) = 0.25 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.05-0.44]) and parents (mean difference = 3.6, p = .023, SMD = .21 [95% CI 0.03-0.40]), as well as in anxiety scores according to youths (mean difference = 4.4, p = .0043, SMD = 0.28 [95% CI 0.09-0.47]) and parents (mean difference = 3.2, p = .030, SMD = 0.21 [95% CI 0.02-0.40]). There were no significant differences in depression scores at post-treatment according to youth (mean difference = 2.9, p = .063, SMD = 0.19 [95% CI -0.01 to 0.39]) or parents (mean difference = 2.2, p = .15, SMD = 0.15 [95% CI -0.05 to 0.33]), but effects emerged at the 30-day follow-up. No serious adverse events were reported.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>The cognitive-behavioral intervention was effective in reducing emotional symptoms in children and adolescents in Brazil. This intervention holds promise for enhancing access to mental health care within a stepped-care model in public health contexts.</p>","PeriodicalId":56278,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Adolescent Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143765673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Typically, these behaviors have been studied in isolation. However, daily time is composed of activities undertaken in a fixed 24-hour cycle; thus, time spent in each activity behavior is codependent. A focus on increase in one behavior in isolation ignores the consequent changes in time spent in other behaviors. This study aimed to examine the relationship between adolescent activity behaviors and indicators of cardiometabolic health by using compositional data analysis.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Participants (N = 222; 16.3 years [0.92], mean [±standard deviation]; 49% male) provided measures of body composition (height, weight, waist-to-hip ratio, 4-site skinfold thickness), cardiorespiratory fitness [CRF], grip strength, blood pressure [BP], blood lipids (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol [LDL-C], high-density lipoprotein cholesterol [HDL-C], total cholesterol [TC], and triglycerides) and markers of glucose control. Device-based measures of activity behavior were obtained from the activPAL 3 micro. Compositional linear regression models were used to examine the relationship between activity behaviors and health indicators while controlling for age, sex, and school location.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>LIPA (relative to the remaining behaviors) was associated with the sum-of-skinfold thickness (β = -13.9; p < .05), CRF (β = 3.9; p < .05), and diastolic BP (β = -8.3; p < .05). Sedentary time and standing time were associated with lower grip strength (β = -5.4; p < .05) and LDL-C (β = -0.38; p < .05), respectively. MVPA was associated with HDL-C (β = 0.7; p < .05) and triglycerides (β = -0.1; p < .05). Reallocating 30 minutes from sleep, sedentary time, or standing time to LIPA or MVPA was associated with significant improvements in cardiometabolic health indicators.</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>This is the first study to apply compositional data analysis in adolescents that has included all activity behaviors on the physical activity continuum. The findings reinforce the health benefits of MVPA for adolescents but also provide evidence to support that increasing LIPA and standing through decreasing sitting time will improve measures of adiposity, CRF, diastolic BP, and LDL-C. Future interventional research is required to confirm the present findings.</p>","PeriodicalId":56278,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Adolescent Health","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.5,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143765745","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
