Association of Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior among obese adolescents across ethnicity: Examination of 2007-2012 NHANES data.Samaraweera, Tharushi 07 May 2016 (has links)
Introduction: The prevalence of childhood and adolescent obesity in the U.S. and in other countries has continued to rise over the last several decades. Health behaviors such as physical activity and inactivity patterns have been shown to influence rates of obesity among adolescents. Racial/ethnic disparities related to adolescent obesity have been recognized through existing research, and differences in socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds have been noted as possible contributing factors to the risk of adolescents becoming overweight or obese. The primary purpose of this study was to analyze the association of physical activity and sedentary activity with obesity prevalence among adolescents aged 12-15 years old across ethnic groups in the U.S.
Methods: This study utilized data from the combined 2007-2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Descriptive characteristics of the study population were analyzed for both ethnicity and BMI status, and Chi-square tests were used to assess differences among the variables. The association between BMI status categories and ethnicity were evaluated. A univariate analysis was conducted to evaluate the association of the independent and covariate variables with obese status among adolescents. A multivariable logistic regression was also performed to determine the association between BMI status and physical activity, controlling for the covariate variables. For sedentary activity, the frequency statistics were analyzed between each of the ethnicities and BMI status, and t-tests were conducted to determine statistical significance.
Results: The sample size for this population included 939 adolescents. Approximately 40% of adolescents were categorized as obese, according to age- and sex-specific BMI percentiles. Among ethnicity, Non-Hispanic white adolescents had the greatest prevalence of obesity, compared to Non-Hispanic Black and Mexican-American adolescents. There was not significant association between BMI status and demographic characteristics, including ethnicity, in the sample. Regarding physical activity, there was some indication that those who engaged in moderate and vigorous physical activity were less likely to be obese, however these findings were not found to be significant. Non-Hispanic black obese adolescents reported significantly less moderate activity compared to Non-Hispanic white adolescents(p=0.02). Obese adolescents in this sample had reported slightly less mean sitting time per day, compared to those who were not obese.
Conclusion: Although the findings of this analysis showed some indication of differences in physical activity and sedentary behavior patterns among obese adolescents, the overall findings did not provide a statistically significant association between the variables and ethnicity. Further studies related to this topic could analyze differences in cultural and social norms across ethnicities that could influence physical activity behaviors in adolescents. Also, access to exercise facilities and differences in dietary behaviors among adolescents could be considered.

National Security Council of Mongolia promoting civil-military relationsBoldbat, Khasbazaryn 03 1900 (has links)
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited / Since the end of the Cold War, Mongolia has enjoyed a new security environment that offers both a genuine opportunity to determine its national security and unavoidable uncertainties that accompany all transitions to democracy. Entering the new environment, the nation faced an urgent necessity to form new policies to meet those uncertainties and establish adequate institutions to implement them. Mongolia, as most small nations with greater vulnerability, sees its security in the greater view of emphasizing its survival in all dimensions with the physical endurance of not being invaded by a military force on the one hand, and survival of its ethnical identity from being assimilated by outnumbered neighbors on the other. Such a broad definition of national security requires participation of all elements of the society in the security process, thus an adequate system able to manage such broad involvement becomes vital. Mongolia has successfully managed to establish a relatively efficient and complex system for national security management. The NSC is the only state institution responsible for the coordination of the nation's effort to ensure its security. However, despite the clear definition of the legal status of the National Security Council provided by legal acts, there is a persistent incorrect popular feeling that the National Security Council is a presidential institution and that the President enjoys the prerogative of orchestrating the nation's effort to ensure its security. This thesis argues coordinative functions will be more efficient if the NSC will properly maintain its independent, non-attached status, and its immediate supportive institutions, the Executive Secretary and the Office, serve as non-partisan, independent, and purely professional units devoted to serving only the interests of national security. / Civilian, Mongolian Government Employee

Sleep and predicted cognitive performance of new Cadets during Cadet Basic Training at the United States Military AcademyMiller, Daniel B. 09 1900 (has links)
The amount of sleep per day among new Cadets at West Point during Cadet Basic Training (CBT) was investigated. Sleep was measured using actigraphy. The results indicated that new Cadets slept an average of approximately 340 minutes or 5 hours, 40 minutes per night. The results were compared with survey data to determine whether or not reported sleep prior to arrival at West Point matched measured sleep at CBT. The findings indicate that the study population is sleep-deprived during CBT. Additionally, the results show that, on average, New Cadets receive 2 hours, 6 minutes less sleep per night during CBT than before their arrival at West Point. The findings also indicate that sleep achieved was not due to the various comparison factors: Gender, Race, Company, Age, Recruited Athlete, and Morningness/Eveningness preference.
