Accuracy of different cutoffs of the waist‐to‐height ratio as a screening tool for cardiometabolic risk in children and adolescents: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of diagnostic test accuracy studies

Yasmin Ezzatvar, Mikel Izquierdo, Robinson Ramírez‐Vélez, Borja Pozo Cruz, more

The present systematic review with meta‐analysis sought to estimate the accuracy of different waist‐to‐height ratio (WHtR) cutoff ranges as risk indicators for cardiometabolic health in different populations of children and adolescents. Systematic searches were undertaken to identify studies in apparently healthy participants aged 3–18 years that conducted receiver operating characteristic curve analysis...

Cardiorespiratory fitness, physical activity, sedentary behavior, and circulating white blood cells in US youth

Antonio García‐Hermoso, Robinson Ramírez‐Vélez, Rosa M. Alfonso‐Rosa, Borja Pozo Cruz

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports > 31 > 2 > 439 - 445

The white blood cell (WBC) provides a clue to the presence of illness. Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and physical activity levels are negatively associated with circulating total WBC counts in adults. To date, only a scarce number of studies have investigated these associations among youths. The aim was to elucidate the relationship between CRF and accelerometer‐assessed physical activity and sedentary...

Type of screen time moderates effects on outcomes in 4013 children: evidence from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children

Taren Sanders, Philip D. Parker, Borja Pozo-Cruz, Michael Noetel, more

International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity > 2019 > 16 > 1 > 1-10

Background Excessive engagement with digital screens is harmful to children’s health. However, new evidence suggests that exposure at moderate levels may not be harmful and may even provide benefit. Therefore, our objective was to determine if there are curvilinear relationships between different types of screen time and a diverse set of outcomes, including health and education. Methods We address...

Dose-response association between physical activity and sedentary time categories on ageing biomarkers

Asier Mañas, Borja Pozo-Cruz, Irene Rodríguez-Gómez, Javier Leal-Martín, more

BMC Geriatrics > 2019 > 19 > 1 > 1-9

Background Physical activity and sedentary behaviour have been suggested to independently affect a number of health outcomes. To what extent different combinations of physical activity and sedentary behaviour may influence physical function and frailty outcomes in older adults is unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the combination of mutually exclusive categories of accelerometer-measured...

Converting Parkinson-Specific Scores into Health State Utilities to Assess Cost-Utility Analysis

Gang Chen, Miguel A. Garcia-Gordillo, Daniel Collado-Mateo, Borja Pozo-Cruz, more

The Patient - Patient-Centered Outcomes Research > 2018 > 11 > 6 > 665-675

Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire-8 (PDQ-8) with three multi-attribute utility (MAU) instruments (EQ-5D-3L, EQ-5D-5L, and 15D) and to develop mapping algorithms that could be used to transform PDQ-8 scores into MAU scores. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted. A final sample of 228 evaluable patients was included in the analyses. Sociodemographic...

International Journal of Rheumatic Diseases > 20 > 7 > 798 - 808

Aim To analyze the association between depression severity and other fibromyalgia‐ (FM) related symptoms such as pain, fatigue, sleep problems, severity of the disease, activity pattern, functional capacity and quality of life. Method The sample included 105 Spanish women with FM. Quality of life was assessed by means of the EQ‐5D and symptom severity by the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire. Pain,...

Validation and comparison of 15-D and EQ-5D-5L instruments in a Spanish Parkinson’s disease population sample

Miguel Ángel García-Gordillo, Borja Pozo-Cruz, José Carmelo Adsuar, Fernando Ignacio Sánchez-Martínez, more

Quality of Life Research > 2014 > 23 > 4 > 1315-1326

Purpose To contribute to the ongoing discussion on the choice of a preference-based health-related quality of life (HRQoL) instrument to be used in cost-effectiveness analysis by studying and comparing the validity, sensitivity and relative efficiency of 15-D and EuroQol 5D 5L (EQ-5D-5L) in a Spanish Parkinson’s disease (PD) population sample. Methods One hundred and thirty-three volunteers were...

Whole body vibration training improves leg blood flow and adiposity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Borja Sañudo, Rosa Alfonso-Rosa, Borja Pozo-Cruz, Jesus Pozo-Cruz, more

European Journal of Applied Physiology > 2013 > 113 > 9 > 2245-2252

This study aimed at examined the effect of a 12-week whole body vibration (WBV) training program on leg blood flow and body composition in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Forty participants were randomly assigned to either a WBV training group (WBV; n = 20) or usual-care control group (CON; n = 20). Body composition [waist circumference, waist to hip ratio (WHR), weight, height, percentage...
