  • Gross motor coordination and weight status of P ortuguese children aged 6–14 years

    Open AccessAntónio Antunes, António M Antunes et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology2015

    OBJECTIVES: To construct age- and gender-specific percentiles for gross motor coordination (MC) tests and to explore differences in gross MC in normal-weight, overweight and obese children. METHODS: Data are from the "Healthy Growth of Madeira Study," a cross-sectional study carried out in children, aged 6-14 years. All 1,276 participants, 619 boys and 657 girls, were assessed for gross MC (Körperkoordinations Test für Kinder, KTK), anthropometry…

    Open AccessAntónio Antunes, António M Antunes et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology2015

    MC seemed moderately stable from childhood through adolescence and, additionally, inter-individual predictors at adolescence were growth, FMS, physical fitness, physical activity and SES

  • Prevalence of overweight, obesity and physical activity levels in children from Azores Islands

    Open AccessSofia A Pereira, André Seabra et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology2010

    The results demonstrate the existence of high prevalence of overweight and obesity in children from the Azores Islands, which is associated with low levels of PA

  • Cross-validation of the Beunen–Malina method to predict adult height

    Open AccessGaston Beunen, Gaston P Beunen et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology2009

    The purpose of this study was to cross-validate the Beunen-Malina method for non-invasive prediction of adult height. Three hundred and eight boys aged 13, 14, 15 and 16 years from the Madeira Growth Study were observed at annual intervals in 1996, 1997 and 1998 and re-measured 7-8 years later. Height, sitting height and the triceps and subscapular skinfolds were measured; skeletal age was assessed using the Tanner-Whitehouse 2 method. Adult heig…

  • Heritabilities of somatotype components in a population from rural Mozambique

    Open AccessSílvio Saranga, Sílvio Pedro José Saranga et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology2008

    There have been few genetic studies of normal variation in body size and composition conducted in Africa. In particular, the genetic determinants of somatotype remain to be established for an African population. (1) To estimate the heritabilities of aspects of somatotype and (2) to compare the quantitative genetic effects in an African population to those that have been assessed in European and American populations. The sample composed of 329 sub…

  • Determinantes biológicos e sócio-culturais associados à prática de atividade física de adolescentes

    Open AccessAndré Seabra, André F Seabra et al.ARTICLECadernos de Saude Publica2008Citada por: 15Referencias: 58

    A atividade física é um comportamento importante na promoção de saúde e na prevenção de doenças. Para que se desenvolvam programas eficazes no incentivo à prática de atividade física em adolescentes, torna-se necessário que se identifiquem os fatores que a determinam. Este estudo pretende rever alguns dos aspectos do estado atual do conhecimento acerca da influência de determinantes demográfico-biológicos (idade, sexo, estatuto sócio-econômico) e…
