Download or read book Physical Activity and Exercise among Children Health Implications written by Åsa B. Tornberg and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to the World Health Organization’s new recommendations on physical activity for children, regardless of living with disability or not, physical activity should be at least 60 minutes per day. Around the world, children are less and less physically active, leading to increased health risks. A healthy lifestyle, as being physically active, is normally set during childhood and adolescence, making children an important group to study and target. This Research Topic will address physiological health effects related to physical activity and exercise among children, regardless of living with disability or not, and how to assess these effects in a valid and reliable way. Children do not respond to physical activity and exercise in the same way as adults do due to unmatured physiology. Living with a disability may also affect the child’s response to physical activity and exercise. In order to be able to follow and prescribe physical activity and exercise to children, rigorous knowledge is needed on how children respond to different physical activity and exercise regimes. Additionally, to be able to follow and prescribe physical activity and exercise to children, valid and reliable assessment methods are needed. Not only do the tests need to be valid and reliable, but also common standards on how to interpret them are required. This Frontiers Research Topic seeks a broad range of original research articles, systematic review articles and meta-analyses in the area of “physical activity and exercise among children” including: -Physical activity assessments which are age- and ability-adjusted, -Fitness assessments which are age- and ability-adjusted, -Effects on health-related outcomes in relation to different physical activity interventions which are age- and ability-adapted, -Effects on health-related outcomes in relation to different exercise interventions which are age- and ability-adapted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En quelques années, l'obésité infantile est devenue un véritable problème de santé publique. En France, en 1980, 6 % des enfants de 5 à 12 ans souffraient d'obésité. Ils étaient 10 % en 1990, et en 2003, 13 à 15 %. On estime que 80 % d'entre eux le resteront à l'âge adulte. Quand on sait les complications médicales que peut entraîner un surpoids important, la nécessité de prévenir cette maladie pour préserver l'avenir de nos enfants paraît urgente. Pourtant, beaucoup de parents se sentent désemparés face aux problèmes de poids de leur enfant, et souvent n'en prennent pas la pleine mesure. Ce guide a donc plusieurs objectifs : permettre aux parents de mieux connaître et comprendre les origines du surpoids et de l'obésité, les facteurs d'aggravation, et les différents recours ; les aider et les orienter dans le choix des traitements afin que le surpoids de leur enfant puisse être pris en charge le plus rapidement et le plus efficacement possible. Et enfin leur donner les outils pour assister leur enfant dans l'acceptation de soi, sans laquelle il ne sera, même s'il maigrit, jamais épanoui. Dans Réponses à vos questions sur le surpoids chez l'enfant et l'adolescent, le Dr Danielle Soulié s'adresse aux parents soucieux de venir en aide à leur enfant. En explicitant les causes, le diagnostic et les traitements possibles, elle ouvre à chacun la voie de la guérison, que ce soit pour inverser le processus de l'obésité ou pour prévenir son apparition prochaine chez les enfants simplement en surpoids.

Download or read book Clinical Management of Overweight and Obesity written by Paolo Sbraccia and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-12-18 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These guidelines make recommendations regarding the management of individuals with a body mass index greater than 25.0 kg/m2 and cover all age groups, from children to the elderly, as well as various patient subsets. A range of measures to yield health benefits are set out, including healthy eating plans, increased physical activity, and behavioral modifications to help patients to manage obesity. In addition, recommendations are made on the use of bariatric surgery and the new antiobesity drugs. Throughout the process of developing the recommendations, every attempt was made to ensure use of a rigorous, evidence-based approach. The guidelines are promoted by the Italian Society of Obesity (SIO) and were formulated in compliance with a prespecified process overseen by a steering committee. They are intended for use by a wide range of clinicians, including general practitioners, primary health care nurses, and primary health care professionals, and will hopefully prove of value in combating the obesity epidemic not only in Italy but across Europe and elsewhere in the world.

Download or read book Made in France written by Andy Smith and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How has French society been made, by whom and why? And how in turn has it influenced the French? This book sets out the institutionalized rules and norms that continue to structure France, together with the ‘political work’ that has recently changed or reproduced these power relations. Exploring a range of age groups and types of social activity, including work, business, entertainment, political mobilizations and retirement, Made in France examines where significant change has occurred over the last four decades. Smith argues that while transformation has occurred in France's financial and education sectors, only relatively marginal shifts have occurred elsewhere in French society. To explain this pattern of continuity and isolated change, the book strongly nuances claims that neo-liberalism, globalization or a rise in populism have been its causes. References to these trends have impacted upon French politics to varying extents, Smith argues; however, France continues to be dominated by issues which are specific to the country and linked to its deep societal structures and history. Smith provides a comprehensive account of French society and politics and in doing so proposes an insightful analytical framework applicable to the comparative analysis of other nations.

Download or read book Physiology and Physiopathology of Adipose Tissue written by Jean-Philippe Bastard and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scientific advances in the physiology and pathophysiology of adipose tissue over the last two decades have been considerable. Today, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of adipogenesis are well known. In addition, adipose tissue is now recognized as a real endocrine organ that produces hormones such as the leptin acting to regulate food intake and energy balance in the central nervous system, a finding that has completely revolutionized the paradigm of energy homeostasis. Other adipokines have now been described and these molecules are taking on increasing importance in physiology and pathophysiology. Moreover, numerous works have shown that in obesity, but also in cases of lipodystophy, adipose tissue was the site of a local low-grade inflammation that involves immune cells such as macrophages and certain populations of lymphocytes. This new information is an important step in the pathophysiology of both obesity and related metabolic and cardiovascular complications. Finally, it is a unique and original work focusing on adipose tissue, covering biology and pathology by investigating aspects of molecular and cellular biology, general, metabolic, genetic and genomic biochemistry.
Download or read book World Health Statistics 2017 written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Health Statistics series is WHO's annual compilation of health statistics for its 194 Member States. The series is produced by the WHO Department of Information, Evidence and Research, and of the Health Systems and Innovation Cluster, in collaboration with all relevant WHO technical departments. World Health Statistics 2017 compiles data on 21 health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) targets with 35 indicators as well as data on life expectancy. This edition also includes, for the first time, success stories from several countries that are making progress towards the health-related SDG targets. World Health Statistics 2017 is organized into three parts. Part 1 describes six lines of action that WHO is now promoting to help build better systems for health and to achieve the health and health-related SDGs. In Part 2, the status of selected health-related SDG indicators is summarized at both global and regional level based on data available as of early 2017. Part 3 presents a selection of stories that highlight recent successful efforts by countries to improve and protect the health of their populations through one or more of the six lines of action. Annexes A and B present country-level estimates for selected health-related SDG indicators. As in previous years, World Health Statistics 2017 has been compiled primarily using publications and databases produced and maintained by WHO or United Nations groups of which WHO is a member such as the UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (IGME). Additionally, a number of statistics have been derived from data produced and maintained by other international organizations such as the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA) and its Population Division.
