ABSTRACT Objective: To verify the association of nutritional status, biological maturation, social support and self-efficacy with the physical activity level of 2,347 students of both sexes, aged between 11 and 15 years old, enrolled in state schools in the city of Curitiba, Paraná, Brazil. Methods: Anthropometric measurements of body mass, height and sitting height were collected. The assessment of biological maturation was based on the analysis of the age at peak height and sexual maturity. The physical activity level, social support from parents and friends and self-efficacy were evaluated by self-reported questionnaires. Sex/age-specific body mass index (BMI) cutoff points identified the nutritional status. Gross and adjusted binary logistic regression were used to obtain odds (OR) ratios with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI), adopting p≤0.05 as significant. Results: More than half (52.3%; n=1,227) of students were active, with boys in a higher proportion (64.1%; p≤0.01). The correlates of physical activity were: nutritional status (OR 1.25; 95%CI 1.01-1.56), early somatic maturation (OR 0.71; 95%CI 0.54-0.93), moderate (OR 1.85; 95%CI 1.50-2.30) and high social support from parents (OR 2.70; 95%CI 2.11-3.42) and high social support from friends (OR 1.78; 95%CI 1.42-2.24). Conclusions: Nutritional status, early somatic maturation, social support of parents and friends were correlates of physical activity. Overweight girls with moderate and high parental support and boys with greater social support from parents and friends were more active. Girls with early somatic maturation were less active.

IntroductionMTHFR methylation status is associated with microvascular complications in diabetes, but the factors influencing this profile remain unknown.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of physical activity level and nutritional status on the methylation profile of the MTHFR gene in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).MethodsA total of 111 patients, 43 men and 68 women diagnosed with DM (7.0 ± 2.3 years), answered the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and underwent blood collection for biochemical analysis, DNA extraction, and MTHFR gene methylation profile determination.ResultThe comparison of the methylation pattern showed that the partially methylated profile predominates in the insufficiently active group (85%), which does not occur in the sufficiently active group (54%) (p = 0.012). No differences were found in the nutritional status comparison. Logistic regression including overweight, waist circumference, gender, age, time of DM, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, alcoholism, and family DM revealed that the association of the level of physical activity with methylation profile proved to be independent of these confounding variables. Considering the partially methylated profile as a result, being physically inactive favors the partially methylated MTHFR pattern in patients with DM.ConclusionWe concluded that insufficient physical activity is associated with partially methylated pattern of MTHFR promoter.

The study aimed to analyze the association among adults daily physical activities and dietary patterns with central adiposity in the Gorontalo Regency, Indonesia. The study method was an observational with a cross-sectional design. Sampling technique used was purposive sampling, with a total participants of 319. The data of socio-demographic, anthropometric measurement, and physical activity were collected using Physical Activity Level (PAL). While food consumption data were obtained using the method of food frequency and recall 2 x 24 hours. Subjects studied were females (77.7%) and males (22.3%), abdominal circumference for men subjects 82.3 ± 14.6 cm and 84.7 ± 12.4 cm for women, the mean physical activity level on weekdays 1.54 ± 0.2 and holidays 1.53 ± 0.1. Energy intake was higher in respondents with normal nutritional status than subjects with central obesity but did not differ significant between the subject study. In protein intake, there was a significant difference between the subject study, which is, the consumption of protein was higher in subjects with normal nutritional status (97.93 gr) compared to the subjects with central obesity (96.24 gr). Food groups with frequent scores, above 0.43 were rice, fresh fish, kale, tomato, chili, coconut oil, and palm oil. There was association between physical activity and central obesity (p-value 0.027). Eating habits included frequency of staple foods, animal-based protein, plant-based protein, vegetables, fruit, oil, and beverage groups showed no significant association with central obesity. There was an association between central obesity with physical activity but no association with dietary patterns.

Physical activity, nutritional status, and total energy expenditure are important components of a human. The purpose of this study was to find out the depiction of physical activity, nutritional status, basal metabolic rate, and total energy expenditure of Indonesia migrant workers during Covid-19 pandemic. The study was a survey study with a descriptive design. The samples were 86 Indonesia migrant workers. The instrument used was the 24 hour recall physical activity sheet for 14 days. The result of the study showed that: 88% of male samples and 95% of female samples gained physical activity level score in low category. The PAL score of the male samples was 1.56, while the PAL score of female samples was 1.52. Related to body mass index, 51% of Indonesia migrant workers were in the normal category; 27% were in the overweight category; 17% were in the Obese I Category, and 5% were in the Obese II category. 22 Indonesia migrant workers in overweight category had low physical activity category, 15 persons in Obesity I category had low physical activity category, and 4 persons in Obese II category. The average of the BMR of the samples during the quarantine, due to Covid-19 pandemic, was 1669 kkal/day for male and 1335 kkal/day for female. The average of total energy expenditure of the samples during Covid-19 quarantine was 2595 kkal/day for male and 2031 kkal/day for female. The physical activity level was low, the nutrition status was normal, total energy expenditure was low, the BMR of the sample was dominated by age factor, sex, and weight of the sample. The result of the study was expected to be a reference of regional and other quarantine systems to improve the immunity system during the 14 days of quarantine.
