Purpose: To investigate the effect of lifestyle habits in childhood
Metabolic Syndrome (MTS).
Design and Methods: Descriptive correlation study with 480 participants
(5-12 years old) using a specially designed questionnaire was conducted.
Anthropometric and biochemical analyses were performed.
Results: Fifteen percent of children exhibited predisposition for MTS.
Regarding sleep habits, logistic regression analysis (LRA) showed that
hour of sleep -before 22: 00- was associated with decreased waist
circumference (WC%) (p = .026). Midday siesta was negatively correlated
with systolic (SBP) (p = .001) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (p =
.046). In children without MTS, lack of sleep and night time sleep was
positively correlated with DBP (p = .044) and fasting blood glucose
(FBG) (p = .005). Regarding nutrition habits, fast food consumption was
positively correlated with SBP (p = .006) and meat consumption was
positively correlated with both Body Mass Index% (BMI%) (p = .038) and
WC% (p = .023). LRA showed that fruit (p = .001) and legume (p = .040)
consumption was associated with decreased FBG; fish consumption with
decreased Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (p = .031),
vegetable (p = .054) and cereal consumption (p = .012) with decreased
DBP. In children with MTS, fruits were associated with increased FBG (p
= .034). In children without MTS, meat consumption was associated with
increased LDL (p = .024), cereal with increased WC% (p = .002) and
olive products with increased High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol
and BMI% (p = .037).
Conclusions: The adoption of both balanced diet and sleep habits seemed
to be crucial for the prevention of MTS. Practice Implications: Clinical
health nurses could develop and implement preventive intervention
programs in order to avoid metabolic complications in adulthood. (C)
