摘要
最近的文献提出了身体活动(PA)和类胡萝卜素状态之间的关联,因为它们在介导氧化应激中的重叠作用。然而,这种关系尚未在幼儿中探索。本研究考察了客观测量PA (ActiGraph三轴加速度计)和皮肤类胡萝卜素水平(压力介导反射光谱)在3至5岁样本之间的关系。本横断面分析纳入了来自单一托儿中心的14名儿童(44±7个月大,71%为男性)。线性回归模型显示,在PA中花费的时间越长,皮肤类胡萝卜素得分越高(β = 3.448, p = 0.032)。我们初步研究的这些发现表明,幼儿身体活动和类胡萝卜素状态之间存在潜在的横断面联系。
The Associations Between Physical Activity and Skin Carotenoid Levels in a Small Sample of Preschoolers: A Pilot Study.
Recent literature proposed an association between physical activity (PA) and carotenoid status due to their overlapping role in mediating oxidative stress. However, this relationship has yet to be explored in young children. This study examined the relationship between objectively measured PA (ActiGraph triaxial accelerometry) and skin carotenoid levels (pressure-mediated reflection spectroscopy) in a sample of 3- to 5-years-old. Fourteen children (44 ± 7 months old, 71% male) from a single child care center were included in this cross-sectional analysis. Linear regression modeling indicated more time spent in PA was associated with higher skin carotenoid scores (β = 3.448, p = 0.032). These findings from our pilot study indicate a potential cross-sectional link between physical activity and carotenoid status in young children.
期刊介绍:
Childhood Obesity is the only peer-reviewed journal that delivers actionable, real-world obesity prevention and weight management strategies for children and adolescents. Health disparities and cultural sensitivities are addressed, and plans and protocols are recommended to effect change at the family, school, and community level. The Journal also reports on the problem of access to effective healthcare and delivers evidence-based solutions to overcome these barriers.
