背景:生活方式和习惯,心血管危险因素(CRF),骨骼和心理健康,饮食习惯,身体活动,其中一些是在童年和青春期发展起来的。家庭环境在这些结果中发挥着重要作用。然而,亲子关系的生活习惯和健康参数是否会受到身体活动模式的影响仍不清楚.本研究的目的是纵向监测和调查父母和子女之间的生活习惯之间的关联。以及验证是否在更活跃的父母中,与生活习惯的可能关联不同于那些被认为不太活跃的父母。
方法:样本将由父母组成(父亲,母亲,或两者)和他们的孩子/青少年。参与者将通过遍布城市所有地区的传单以及社交媒体通过公众电话招募。健康参数将包括心血管(心脏自主神经调制,血压和静息心率),骨矿物质密度,人体测量指数,握力,心理健康(生活质量,焦虑和抑郁症状和压力),自我报告的发病率和肌肉骨骼疼痛。生活方式习惯将包括身体活动水平,久坐的行为,睡眠参数,饮食模式,吸烟和饮酒。年龄的社会人口统计学变量,性别,种族和社会经济地位将被视为协变量。数据收集的后续访问将安排在基线评估的12个月后,每12个月进行一次。
结论:家庭环境有很大的潜力决定儿童和青少年的生活习惯。根据本研究的结果,我们希望在家庭环境中更好地设计健康促进行动。
BACKGROUND: Lifestyle and habits, cardiovascular risk factors (CRF), bone and mental health, dietary habits, physical activity, among others are developed in childhood and adolescence. Family environment has shown to play an important role in these outcomes. However, whether the parent-child relationship lifestyle habits and health parameters can be influenced by physical activity patterns still unclear. The objective of this study will be to monitor and investigate the associations between lifestyle habits between parents and their children longitudinally, as well as verify whether in more active parents, the possible associations with lifestyle habits are different from those of parents considered less active.
METHODS: The sample will consist of parents (
father, mother, or both) and their children /adolescents. The participants will be recruited through public call by flyers spread across all the regions of the city and also through social media. The health parameters will include cardiovascular (cardiac autonomic modulation, blood pressure and resting heart rate), bone mineral density, anthropometric indices, handgrip strength, mental health (quality of life, anxiety and depression symptoms and stress), self-reported morbidities and musculoskeletal pain. Lifestyle habits will include physical activity levels, sedentary behavior, sleep parameters, eating patterns, smoking and alcohol consumption. Sociodemographic variables of age, sex, ethnicity and socioeconomic status will be considered as covariates. The follow-up visits of data collection will be scheduled after a period of 12 months from the baseline assessment during every twelve months.
CONCLUSIONS: The family environment has great potential to determine lifestyle habits in children and adolescents. Based on the results presented in the present study, we hope that health promotion actions can be better designed in the family environment.
