Ferrari, Gerson; de Maio Nascimento, Marcelo; Petermann-Rocha, Fanny; Rezende, Leandro F.M.; O'Donovan, Gary; Gouveia, Elvio; Cristi-Montero, CarlosBackground: We examined the association between individual lifestyle risk factors with all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Methods: Prospective cohort study including 155,002 participants from the Mexico City Prospective Study. Cox regression models were used to estimate the association between individual lifestyle risk factors and all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Participants with prevalent diseases...
All-cause mortality attributable to sitting time and physical inactivity in chi...
Stingl-Zúñiga, Ignacio; Farías‑Valenzuela, Claudio; Ferrero‑Hernández, Paloma; Marques, Adilson; Rezende, Leandro F. M.; Castillo-Paredes, AntonioBackground: Evidence on all-cause mortality attributable to joint sitting time and physical inactivity is lacking. In this study, we estimated the proportion and number of deaths attributable to sitting time and physical inactivity in Chilean adults. Methods: A sample of 5834 adults aged 20-96 years from a 2016-2017 Chilean National Health Survey was included to describe the prevalence of 16 joint categories of...
Prevalence and sociodemographic correlates of meeting the Canadian 24-hour move...
Ferrari, Gerson; Alberico, Claudia; Drenowatz, Clemens; Kovalskys, Irina; Gómez, Georgina; Rigotti, Attilio; Cortés, Lilia Yadira; García, Martha YépezBackground: 24-hour movement behaviors, including moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), sedentary time (ST), and sleep duration, have important implications for health across the lifespan. However, no studies exist that have examined the integration of these 24-hour movement behaviors in Latin America. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of meeting the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guid...
Perceived urban environment attributes and obesity indices in adults: an 8-nati...
Ferrari, Gerson; Alberico, Claudia; Marques, Adilson; Kovalskys, Irina; Gómez, Georgina; Rigotti, Attilio; Cortés, Lilia Yadira; García, Martha YépezThis study examines the associations between perceived urban environment attributes and obesity indices by country using data from an eight-nation study from Latin America. The data were collected from 8185 adults. The Neighbourhood Environment Walkability-abbreviated scale was used to assess perceived urban environment attributes. Obesity indices considered were body mass index, waist circumference, neck circu...

Ferrari, Gerson; Werneck, André Oliveira; da Silva, Danilo Rodrigues; Kovalskys, Irina; Gómez, Georgina; Rigotti, Attilio; Sanabria, Lilia Yadira CortésBackground: Characteristics of the neighborhood built environment are associated with physical activity (PA). However, few studies with representative samples have examined environmental correlates of domain-specific PA in Latin America. We examined the associations of the perceived neighborhood built environment with domainspecific PA in a large sample of adults from eight Latin American countries. Methods: Th...
