Visualization of the research landscape on the 20 m shuttle run test in the last 15 years: Bibliometric analysis with VOSviewer of the most cited studies
Introduction Various studies have applied the 20-meter shuttle run test (20mSRT) to estimate cardiorespiratory fitness in different population groups, with the aim of associating test performance with the physiological, psychosocial, and cognitive health of children and young people. However, to date, no bibliometric review that analyzes the research landscape has been conducted. The objective was to conduct a bibliometric review to develop an ov…
The Use of Physical Activity in Coping with Test Anxiety Among Students: A Systematic Review
Test anxiety is a specific form of anxiety that occurs in evaluative situations, comprising psychological, physiological, and behavioral reactions associated with concern about outcomes. Aiming to analyze the relationship between physical activity and coping with anxiety, particularly test anxiety, in students aged 13 to 25 years, as well as the effects on mental health, this review followed the PRISMA guidelines. We searched PubMed, Web of Scien…
Is the type of school uniform linked with physical activity levels and physical fitness in schoolchildren? A systematic review covering 1,098,972 children and adolescents

Digital technology for the national sport development: Designing a database model to analyse elite sports data
Relational database models offer a pathway for the storage, standardization, and analysis of factors influencing national sports development. While existing research delves into the factors linked with sporting success, there remains an unexplored avenue for the design of databases that seamlessly integrate quantitative analyses of these factors. This study aims to design a relational database to store and analyse quantitative sport development d…
Growth charts of Brazilian youngs: 20-Years data of 95,000 children and adolescents from “Projeto Esporte Brasil”
This article aims to present growth curves for height, weight, and BMI of 95,000 Brazilian youths aged 6 to 17 years, including the five regions of the country, the Amazon region, and indigenous populations, and compare them with the World Health Organization (WHO) growth references. The final sample consisted of 52,729 boys and 42,731 girls from the “Projeto Esporte Brasil” database. Body mass and height information were used to derive the curve…
A descriptive ranking of blood pressure and physical fitness of Latin–American ethnic schoolchildren
Under conditions of insufficient physical activity conditions, Mapuche schoolchildren had the most detrimental blood pressure, whereas Embera, Tikuna, and European schoolchildren had the lowest levels of physical fitness. These results serve to highlight the need for the early and appropriate promotion of physical activity based on ethnic differences in Latin-American schools
Associations of cardiorespiratory fitness and obesity parameters with blood pressure: Fitness and fatness in youth Latin-American ethnic minority
Background: In spite of wide international evidence about cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and adiposity in association with cardiovascular disease, there is poor evidence about this relationship in schoolchildren of ethnic minorities. Aim: To examine the relationship between CRF and body composition on blood pressure (BP) in a sample of ethnic minority schoolchildren from three Latin-American countries. Material and methods: A descriptive cross s…
Nível de intensidade nas aulas de educação física do ensino fundamental
O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever os níveis de intensidade das aulas de Educação Física de escolares do ensino fundamental. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória com abordagem quantitativa e corte transversal. A escola foi selecionada por conveniência. Foram avaliadas 11 aulas, de uma turma do oitavo ano. As variáveis do estudo foram: as atividades em que os escolares estavam envolvidos, frequência cardíaca, velocidade e a distância percorrid…
Incidence of Hypertension in Schoolchildren and Adolescents: Relationship With Physical Activity, Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Obesity
The present study examined the associations between changes over time in blood pressure (BP) with baseline and with varying levels of physical activity (PA), cardiorespiratory fitness (AFT) and body mass index (BMI). Longitudinal study, consisting of 221 young people aged between 8-17 years. BP, BMI, sexual maturation and the AFT test were conducted at the school. The AF was assessed by a validated questionnaire. Subjects were classified into hig…
