- To compare patterns of sedentary (SED) time (more sedentary, SED + vs less sedentary, SED-), moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) time (more active, MVPA + vs less active, MVPA-), and combinations of behaviors (SED-/MVPA + , SED-/MVPA-, SED + /MVPA + , SED + /MVPA-) regarding nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) markers. This cross-sectional study included 134 subjects (13.4 +/- 2.2 years, body mass index (BMI) 98.9 +/- 0.7 percentile, 48.5% females) who underwent 24-h/7-day accelerometry, anthropometric, and biochemical markers (alanine aminotransferase (ALT) as first criterion, and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), AST/ALT ratio as secondary criteria). A subgroup of 39 patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging-liver fat content (MRI-LFC). Hepatic health was better in SED- (lower ALT, GGT, and MRI-LFC (p < 0.05), higher AST/ALT (p < 0.01)) vs SED + and in MVPA + (lower ALT (p < 0.05), higher AST/ALT (p < 0.01)) vs MVPA- groups after adjustment for age, gender, and Tanner stages. SED-/MVPA + group had the best hepatic health. SED-/MVPA- group had lower ALT and GGT and higher AST/ALT (p < 0.05) in comparison with SED + /MVPA + group independently of BMI. SED time was positively associated with biochemical (high ALT, low AST/ALT ratio) and imaging (high MRI-LFC) markers independently of MVPA. MVPA time was associated with biochemical markers (low ALT, high AST/ALT) but these associations were no longer significant after adjustment for SED time. Conclusion: Lower SED time is associated with better hepatic health independently of MVPA. Reducing SED time might be a first step in the management of pediatric obesity NAFLD when increasing MVPA is not possible.

- Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is highly prevalent in children and adolescents with obesity and places them at an increased risk of cardiovascular-related diseases. However, the associations between objectively measured movement-related behaviors and MetS diagnosis remain unexplored in youths with obesity. The aim was to compare profiles of sedentary (SED) time (more sedentary, SED+ vs. less sedentary, SED-), moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) time (more active, MVPA+ vs. less active, MVPA-) and combinations of behaviors (SED-/MVPA+, SED-/MVPA-, SED+/MVPA+, SED+/MVPA-) regarding the MetS diagnosis. One hundred and thirty-four adolescents with obesity (13.4 +/- 2.2 years) underwent 24 h/7 day accelerometry, waist circumference (WC), blood pressure (BP), high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-c), triglycerides (TG) and insulin-resistance (IR) assessments. Cumulative cardiometabolic risk was assessed by using (i) MetS status (usual dichotomic definition) and (ii) cardiometabolic risk z-score (MetScore, mean of standardized WC, BP, IR, TG and inverted HDL-c). SED- vs. SED+ and MVPA+ vs. MVPA- had lower MetS (p < 0.01 and p < 0.001) and MetScore (p < 0.001). SED-/MVPA+ had the lowest risk. While SED and MVPA times were lower in SED-/MVPA- vs. SED+/MVPA+ (p < 0.001), MetScore was lower in SED-/MVPA- independently of body mass index (BMI) (p < 0.05). MVPA, but not SED, time was independently associated with MetS diagnosis (p < 0.05). Both MVPA (p < 0.01) and SED times (p < 0.05) were associated with MetScore independently of each other. A higher MVPA and lower SED time are associated with lower cumulative cardiometabolic risk.

- Background Relationships between movement-related behaviours and metabolic health remain underexplored in adolescents with obesity.Objectives To compare profiles of sedentary time (more sedentary, SED+ vs. less sedentary, SED-), moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) time (more active, MVPA+ vs. less active, MVPA-) and combinations of behaviours (SED-/MVPA+, SED-/MVPA-, SED+/MVPA+, SED+/MVPA-) in regard to metabolic health.Methods One hundred and thirty-four subjects (mean age 13.4 +/- 2.2 yrs, mean body mass index [BMI] 98.9 +/- 0.7 percentile, 48.5% females) underwent 24 h/7 day accelerometry, anthropometric, body composition, blood pressure (BP), lipid profile and insulin resistance (IR) assessments.Results Metabolic health was better in SED- [lower fat mass (FM) percentage (p < 0.05), blood pressure (BP) (p < 0.05), homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) (p < 0.001) and metabolic syndrome risk score (MetScore) (p < 0.001), higher high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-c) (p = 0.001)] vs. SED+ group and in MVPA+ [lower triglyceridemia (TG), (p < 0.05), HOMA-IR (p < 0.01) and MetScore (p < 0.001), higher HDL-c (p < 0.01)] vs. MVPA- group after adjustment with age, gender, maturation and BMI. SED-/MVPA+ group had the best metabolic health. While sedentary (p < 0.001) but also MVPA times (p < 0.001) were lower in SED-/MVPA- vs. SED+/MVPA+, SED-/MVPA- had lower FM percentage (p < 0.05), HOMA-IR (p < 0.01) and MetScore (p < 0.05) and higher HDL-c (p < 0.05), independently of BMI. Sedentary time was positively correlated with HOMA-IR and Metscore and negatively correlated with HDL-c after adjustment with MVPA (p < 0.05). MVPA was negatively correlated with HOMA-IR, BP and MetScore and positively correlated with HDL-c after adjustment with sedentary time (p < 0.05).Conclusion Lower sedentary time is associated with a better metabolic health independently of MVPA and might be a first step in the management of pediatric obesity when increasing MVPA is not possible.
