We aim to explore the independent associations of sedentary behaviors (SB) with body mass distribution among Chinese children. Data on the screen-based sedentary time (television viewing and computer use) and doing homework, physical activities and dietary intake of 1586 Chinese children (50.3% girls) aged 7-15 years were obtained through validated questionnaires. Skin-fold thickness, body height, and weight were measured to calculate percent body fat (%BF), fat mass index (FMI), and fat-free mass index (FFMI). Parental characteristics were collected by questionnaires. Among girls, time of SB (screen time or doing homework) was positively related to %BF, FMI, and FFMI ( < 0.03) after adjusting for maternal overweight, the average annual income of family, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity energy expenditure, and energy intake: Girls in the highest tertile of screen time/homework had 16.7%/23.3% higher relative FMI and 2.9%/2.9% higher relative FFMI than girls in the lowest tertile. Among boys, screen time was positively associated with FFMI ( < 0.003), but not related to %BF and FMI ( > 0.09), while time of doing homework was positively related to %BF and FMI ( = 0.03). Sedentary behaviors might be positively and independently related to fat mass among Chinese children, and were more pronounced in girls.
我们旨在探讨中国儿童久坐行为(SB)与身体质量分布之间的独立关联。通过经过验证的问卷,收集了1586名7至15岁中国儿童(50.3%为女孩)基于屏幕的久坐时间(看电视和使用电脑)、做作业、体育活动及饮食摄入的数据。测量皮褶厚度、身高和体重,以计算体脂百分比(%BF)、脂肪量指数(FMI)和去脂体重指数(FFMI)。通过问卷收集父母的特征信息。在女孩中,在调整了母亲超重、家庭年均收入、中等到剧烈体育活动能量消耗和能量摄入后,SB时间(屏幕时间或做作业时间)与%BF、FMI和FFMI呈正相关(<0.03):屏幕时间/做作业时间处于最高三分位数的女孩,其相对FMI比处于最低三分位数的女孩高16.7%/23.3%,相对FFMI高2.9%/2.9%。在男孩中,屏幕时间与FFMI呈正相关(<0.003),但与%BF和FMI无关(>0.09),而做作业时间与%BF和FMI呈正相关(=0.03)。久坐行为可能与中国儿童的脂肪量呈正相关且独立相关,在女孩中更为明显。
