Trauma and well-being in terrorism survivors in Spain
Long after terrorist attacks, victims may experience both trauma-related symptoms and levels of psychological well-being. This paper aimed to examine: (1) the relationship between overall PTSD and well-being; and (2) the associations among different PTSD symptom clusters, well-being, and daily functioning in 87 adult victims of jihadist and nationalist separatist terrorism in Madrid and Andalusia. The Posttraumatic Stress Questionnaire and the Ps…
Sleep duration in middle childhood and age at menarche
OBJECTIVE: Puberty affects sleep phasing. However, it is unclear if sleep duration earlier in childhood could influence the timing of pubertal events. We aimed to assess the association between middle childhood nighttime sleep duration and age at menarche (AAM). METHODS: In a cohort of 819 premenarcheal Colombian girls who were followed annually for the occurrence of menarche, we estimated adjusted hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals…
Leukocyte telomere length predicts subsequent infectious morbidity among Colombian schoolchildren
OBJECTIVE: Telomere length (TL) attrition is related to chronic disease risk. However, less is known on whether TL predicts infectious outcomes, especially in childhood. We examined whether leukocyte TL (LTL) was associated with subsequent infectious morbidity in schoolchildren. METHODS: We assessed LTL in 717 Colombian children 5-12 years-old at the beginning of a school year and followed them through the year for daily occurrence of common infe…
Self-Compassion and Social Connectedness as Predictors of "Peace and Meaning" during Spain's Initial Covid-19 Lockdown
The COVID-19 lockdown has had a massive psychological impact on mental health in the general population, with increases in anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Spiritual well-being, specifically peace and meaning, has already been identified as one of the main protective factors for these disorders in the COVID-19 context. The aim of the present study is to identify facilitating elements for peace and meaning during the COVID-…
Processed and ultra-processed foods are associated with lower-quality nutrient profiles in children from Colombia
Objective To determine if processed and ultra-processed foods consumed by children in Colombia are associated with lower-quality nutrition profiles than less processed foods. Design We obtained information on sociodemographic and anthropometric variables and dietary information through dietary records and 24 h recalls from a convenience sample of the Bogotá School Children Cohort. Foods were classified into three categories: (i) unprocessed and m…
Maternal body image dissatisfaction and BMI change in school-age children
Objective Parental body image dissatisfaction (BID) is associated with children’s weight in cross-sectional studies; however, it is unknown whether BID predicts development of adiposity. The objective of the present study was to investigate the associations between maternal dissatisfaction with her or her child’s body and children’s BMI trajectories. Design Longitudinal study. Maternal dissatisfaction (BID) with her and her child’s body was calcu…
Trans -fatty acids in cooking oils in Bogota, Colombia
Objective Long-chain n -3 fatty acid intake in Colombia is low because fish consumption is limited. Vegetable oils with high n -3 fatty acid content are recommended, but their concentrations of trans fats were high in previous studies. Thus, regular monitoring of the fatty acid composition of vegetable oils is required. Our objective was to quantify the fatty acid composition in commercially available oils in Bogota, Colombia and determine if com…
A prospective study of body image dissatisfaction and BMI change in school-age children
Objective Body image dissatisfaction (BID) in school-age children is positively associated with weight status in cross-sectional studies; however, it is uncertain whether BID is a risk factor for the development of adiposity over time. The aim of the present study was to examine the association of BID with changes in BMI in school-age children. Design Longitudinal study. At recruitment, children were asked to indicate the silhouette that most clo…
Cooking with soyabean oil increases whole-blood α-linolenic acid in school-aged children
Objective Supply of essential n -3 PUFA is limited worldwide. While fish-oil supplementation effectively improves n -3 PUFA status, it may not be a sustainable intervention. The use of α-linolenic acid (ALA)-rich cooking oils in the household may be a suitable alternative but its effect on PUFA status is unclear. We aimed to compare the effect of providing families with soyabean oil, an ALA-rich cooking oil, v . sunflower oil on whole-blood PUFA …
BMI and sociodemographic correlates of body image perception and attitudes in school-aged children
Objective The aim of the present study was to identify correlates of body image perception and dissatisfaction among school-aged children from Colombia, a country undergoing the nutrition transition. Design Cross-sectional study. Using child-adapted Stunkard scales, children were asked to indicate the silhouette that most closely represented their current and desired body shapes. Body image dissatisfaction (BID) score was estimated as current min…
Adherence to a snacking dietary pattern and soda intake are related to the development of adiposity
Objective Snacking has been related to increased prevalence of overweight among school-age children in cross-sectional studies. It is uncertain, however, whether snacking influences the development of adiposity over time. Design We examined whether adherence to a snacking dietary pattern was associated with greater increases in children's BMI, subscapular:triceps skinfold thickness ratio and waist circumference over a median 2·5-year follow-up. D…
Accuracy of self-reported weight and height in women from Bogotá, Colombia
Bias in self-reported anthropometry varied with respect to objectively measured anthropometry and sociodemographic characteristics. BMI from self-reported anthropometry under-estimates overweight/obesity and obesity prevalence; calibration methods can effectively correct reporting bias
Validity of Maternal Birthweight Recall Among Colombian Children
