The association between physical activity and healthcare costs in children – results from the Giniplus and Lisaplus cohort studies
The results indicate that childhood might be too early in life, to detect significant preventive effects of physical activity on healthcare utilization and costs, as diseases attributable to lacking physical activity might first occur later in life. This underpins the importance of clarifying the long-term effects of physical activity as it may strengthen the promotion of physical activity in children from a health economic perspective
Physical activity and its correlates in children: A cross-sectional study (the Giniplus & Lisaplus studies)
When considering correlates of PA from several domains simultaneously, only few factors (sex, sports club membership, physical environment, time outdoors, and emotional symptoms) appear to be relevant. Although the causality needs to be ascertained in longitudinal studies, variables which cannot be modified should be used to identify risk groups while modifiable variables, such as sports club activities, may be addressed in intervention programs
Relative weight-related costs of healthcare use by children—Results from the two German birth cohorts, Gini-plus and Lisa-plus
Regional and socio-economic differences in food, nutrient and supplement intake in school-age children in Germany: Results from the Giniplus and the Lisaplus studies
Objective To describe regional differences between eastern and western Germany with regard to food, nutrient and supplement intake in 9–12-year-old children, and analyse its association with parental education and equivalent income. Design Data were obtained from the 10-year follow-up of the two prospective birth cohort studies – GINIplus and LISAplus. Data on food consumption and supplement intake were collected using an FFQ, which had been desi…
Impact of parental education and income inequality on children's food intake
Objective To analyse the association between socio-economic indicators and diet among 2-year-old children, by assessing the independent contribution of parental education and equivalent income to food intake. Design The analysis was based on data from a prospective birth cohort study. Information on diet was obtained using a semi-quantitative food-frequency questionnaire. Low and high intake of food was defined according to the lowest and the hig…
