VON OETINGER, Astrid; VILLANUEVA, Sergio y TRUJILLO GITTERMANN, Luz María. Effects of Sedentary Behavioral Breakdown on Physiological and Cognitive Parameters in Pediatrics. Rev Cubana Pediatr [online]. 2023, vol.95 Epub 30-Jun-2023. ISSN 1561-3119.
Introduction:
Physical activity is relevant to physical and mental health. Daily sedentary behavior affects health, and physical activity contributes to the maintenance of mental health.
Objective:
To analyze, in a pediatric population, the updated scientific evidence related to the effects of sedentary behavioral breaks on cardiometabolic markers and cognitive function.
Methods:
Systematic review of studies published in scientific databases like: PubMed, Cochrane, Science Direct, Medline. The search limits were placed on studies published between 2016 and 2022, and conducted in boys and girls aged 4 to 13 years.
Analysis and synthesis of information:
127 articles with 2522 patients were identified. Ten articles were included in the final analysis and two subgroups were considered: a) patients with breaks in sedentary behavior and their effect on cardiometabolic markers and b) patients with breaks in sedentary behavior and their effect on cognitive functions.
Conclusions:
The results obtained indicated that interventions with sedentary behavior breakdown protocols constitute an effective method to improve cardiometabolic health markers and cognitive function markers in the pediatric population.
