Associations of sedentary behavior with markers of cardiometabolic risk in boys.

Model 1. Unadjusted analyses.
Model 2. Adjusted for accelerometer wear time, age, light and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity, total sedentary time (except when exposure), BMI Z-score (except when included in outcome), Tanner stage, parental income and level of education. Data are presented as beta coefficients (95% confidence intervals). n = 286.
Associations assessed using linear regression analysis. Data are presented as beta coefficients (95% confidence intervals). n = 286.
* = p<0.05.
Fasting insulin and plasma triglycerides have been transformed using a Box-Cox transformation.
Continuous cardiometabolic risk score was calculated by summing z-scores for insulin, glucose, triglycerides, negative HDL-cholesterol, blood pressure, BMI, and waist circumference for each participant.
BMI, body mass index; HDL-C, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; hs-CRP, high sensitivity c-reactive protein; MVPA, moderate-to-vigorous physical activity; TV, television; WC, waist circumference.
