It is crucial to consider age and sex differences to design effective educational and health strategies. Objective: to identify the relationship between screen exposure and lifestyle, according to sex and age of schoolchildren from district educational institutions in Bogotá, Colombia. Method: using a cross-sectional design, 419 schoolchildren of both sexes (n=212 males), between 9 and 17.9 years old, from 6 district educational institutions in Bogotá were included. Screen exposure and lifestyle were identified using the Screen Time and FANTASTICO questionnaires. Results: The mean age of the schoolchildren was 12.28 ± 1.81 years. Significant differences (p < 0.05) were observed between men (70%) and women (30%) (> 2 hours) in video games (VJ), regardless of age. In the EV, significant differences (p = 0.021) were observed between the age groups (p = 0.021), in the Post Hoc analysis, the highest prevalence was identified in the “Danger and low” category in young people > 15 years (40%) compared to the rest. There were no differences between the sexes. Conclusion: Although exposure to screens differs by sex, the EV shows worse results in older adolescents regardless of sex. It is recommended to implement educational and family policies that promote responsible use of technology and develop interventions adapted to specific exposure patterns, considering contextual factors and individual differences.

Through a cross-sectional study involving 50 employees of the Universidad Santo Tomás, we sought to find the associations between mood states and cardiovascular risk factors in a post-confinement context, using the POMS questionnaire to measure mood states and several cardiovascular risk measures such as body composition, blood glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure. The results indicated that workers have slightly elevated levels of depression and low vigor. Vigor was inversely associated with SBP and positively associated with body fat percentage only in women. Fatigue was positively associated with body fat percentage in women and inversely associated with SBP in the total sample. In conclusion, in a post-confinement context, workers at the Universidad Santo Tomás may present alterations in mood states and some cardiovascular risk factors. Mood states such as vigor and fatigue may be related to some risk factors, particularly in the women in the sample.Ítem Relación Entre la Variabilidad de la Frecuencia Cardiaca y el Metabolismo en Reposo en Mujeres Mayores de la Ciudad de Tunja, Boyacá.(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024-09-23) Acevedo Sanchez, Juan Camilo; Bohórquez Campos, Fernando Alberto; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001657895; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001730241; https://scholar.google.es/citations?hl=es&user=37AK1kUAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8651-216X; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6955-7267Introduction: Aging is a natural process characterized by the gradual loss of physiological functions, influenced by development and lifestyle throughout life. The population over 60 years of age will double by 2050, highlighting the importance of understanding the physiological changes associated with age. This study focuses on heart rate variability (HRV) as an indicator of cardiovascular autonomic regulation and its relationship with resting metabolic rate (RMR) in older women. Objective: To analyze the relationship between heart rate variability and resting metabolic rate in older women. Methodology: The population was composed of women over 60 years of age from the older adult group of the Institute of Recreation and Sports of Tunja (IRDET). A sample of 42 women was selected by convenience sampling and body composition was evaluated by electrical bioimpedance using the TANITA BC-601F, resting metabolic rate (RMR) was measured with the Cosmed K5 metabolic cart, heart rate variability (HRV) was recorded at rest and supine position, using a Polar H10 sensor connected to the HRV Elite application. Results: a significant negative correlation was observed between rMSSD and TMR, with a correlation coefficient of r = -0.412 and a p value = 0.007. LF showed a significant positive correlation with TMR (r = 0.318, p = 0.040). HF reflecting parasympathetic activity, presented a significant negative correlation with TMR (r = -0.318, p = 0.040). Conclusions: It was evidenced that higher TMR is associated with greater sympathetic activation, challenging conventional understanding and suggesting the need for further investigations.Ítem Análisis comparativo entre la condición y la carga física de trabajo en funcionarios administrativos(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024) Simonin, Vadim; Universidad Santo TomásIntroduction: the physical load at work has a direct impact on the physical condition and performance of workers, causing musculoskeletal injuries and pain, generating physical fatigue, psychological stress; such consequences decrease productivity and increase the rate of absenteeism from work. Objective: To identify the profile of condition and physical workload in administrative officials of a higher education institution. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study involving 94 administrative officials from the different campuses of the Universidad Santo Tomás, who were evaluated using the OWAS (ovako working analysis system) model, with the aim of standardizing their physical and postural workload; additionally, aspects related to the physical condition of the employees were evaluated. The Kruskal-Wallis test was applied as a test of analysis and comparison between sites, followed by post-hoc comparisons with Bonferroni correction. Results: Statistically significant differences were observed in the parameters evaluated between the different sites. The p values obtained indicate a statistical significance where p < 0.001 in most of the categories evaluated. Conclusion: The variations observed in the postural evaluation of the arms, trunk and general posture, with p values < 0.001, underline the importance of the differences in working conditions and spatial configurations between the sites.Ítem Identificación y Comparación de Factores de Riesgo Cardiovascular Relacionados Entre Estudiantes de Cultura Física, Deporte y Recreación y Estudiantes de Programas de Ciencias de la Salud de Dos IES de Colombia(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024) Royet, Lola R.; Estrada Bonilla, Yisel Carolina; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001195891; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002195385; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=SfnWCU0AAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5049-019X; https://orcid.org/0009-0002-5357-5847Cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) are events that can put people who have them in a situation of cardiovascular lability.

It is necessary to integrate activities of daily living (ADL) into the sessions, such as lifting objects around the house, climbing stairs and performing domestic tasks. It is important for patients to get involved in physical activity and notice improvements in their daily lives. Material and method: Ten patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or other cardiac diseases (age 56.8±13.8) were divided into two groups: the control group followed the program established by the center, while the second group followed the same program but also integrated ADL+coordination on the gym sessions. The sessions took place once or twice a week for 4 weeks. Two tests were used to measure the progress of the patients (submaximal cycling test and the adapted Glittre ADL test). Results: The experimental group increased its power with a significance of p=.029 and both groups with p = .020. On the TGlittreA a decrease in time (p = .015 Cohen's = 1.2). However, the intensity of improvement between the control program and the ADL+coordination program was not significantly different (p = .733); (p = .840). Discussion: This study highlighted the simplicity and ease of integration of the TGlittre test into rehabilitation practice, revealing activities of daily living. Rehabilitation programs, which included coordination exercises, showed significant improvements in quality of life and functional capacity. However, different methodologies and frequencies exist, highlighting the need for further studies to identify the specific elements likely to maximize the benefits of ADL and coordination. Conclusions: Improvements in power (w) and TGlittre were not significantly different between the control and ADL+coordination programs.Ítem Correlación Entre Factores de Riesgo Cardiovascular y Condición Física de Funcionarios de la Universidad Santo Tomás Seccional Bucaramanga(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024-02-07) Acuña Barón, Daniela; Florido Tuta, Andrés Felipe; Estrada Bonilla, Yisel Carolina; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001195891; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002067062; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0002066999; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=SfnWCU0AAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5049-019X; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0288-7242; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9667-7208The confinement resulting from the pandemic has led the population to make substantial adaptations to their work and living environments, moving their daily activities to the home. This situation, which involves the execution of daily tasks in the same space, could explain, at least in part, the development of unhealthy habits and the manifestation of cardiovascular risk factors. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate whether there is a correlation between cardiovascular risk factors and the physical condition of the officials of the Santo Tomás University, Bucaramanga headquarters.Ítem Diseño de un Programa de Actividad Física Frente al Manejo de Posibles Situaciones de Estrés en Población Adulta en el Conjunto Residencial Guayacán Parques de Bogotá(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024-01-15) Gutierrez Quevedo, Diego Armando; Sierra Delgadillo, Viviana; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000016465; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=osAtplkAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9148-2994The present study analyzed the impact of a physical activity program on stress management in adults from the Guayacán Parques residential complex in Bogotá. It begins by establishing stress as an increasing problem in society, followed by conceptualizing stress and physical activity from different theoretical perspectives. The methodology had a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. The IPAQ questionnaire and the PSS-14 perceived stress scale were applied to 22 adults, before and after an 8-session supervised physical activity program. A focus group was also conducted to explore perceptions and experiences. The results showed increases in levels of physical activity and decreased perceived stress after the intervention. The qualitative analysis corroborates these findings, by showing that participants noticed positive changes in stress management and overall well-being. It is concluded that the implemented physical activity program increased levels of physical activity and contributed to stress management in the participants. It is recommended to extend this type of studies and encourage community-based guided physical activity programs, to improve people's quality of life. The contributions of this study lie in providing evidence on the benefits of regular physical activity for stress management, a problem that affects well-being. In addition, it highlights the importance of implementing exercise programs supervised by experts, adapted to the needs of diverse communitiesÍtem Factores Motivacionales por los Cuales un Grupo de Personas que Asisten al Gimnasio the First Place de la Ciudad de Barrancabermeja (Santander), Realizaron Ejercicio Físico para la Salud en el Marco de la Pandemia por Covid-19(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024-01-15) Serrano Ospina, Oscar Andrés; Forero Cárdenas, Carmen Victoria; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001079450; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=kacBIKUAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9997-327XAs a result of the contingency due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the need arose to investigate the motivational factors at a personal, family and social level that led a group of people to perform physical exercise in the midst of this health crisis. The main objective of this research process was to identify the motivational factors why people performed physical exercise in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. A search was carried out for studies on motivation and physical exercise, finding similarities and differences between them. A literary search was also carried out on the benefits of physical exercise against Covid-19. A qualitative approach was chosen, for which individual semi-structured interviews were carried out. The main findings were that health at a personal level has a high incidence, the family plays a fundamental role in this type of processes and being able to interact with other people is more motivating when doing physical exercise.Ítem Efectos del Ejercicio Aeróbico en la Enfermedad de Hígado Graso no Alcoholico (EHGNA) en Adultos Mayores de 40 Años: Revisión Narrativa(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-10-06) Murcia Moreno, Piedad Bibiana; Varela, Jesus; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001727371; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=6KmPuzIAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5033-2906The increasing prevalence of obesity has made non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) the most common chronic liver disease. It is diagnosed by liver biopsy where the hepatocyte (or liver cell) shows a high fat content. As a consequence, NASH and especially its inflammatory form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are the fastest increasing etiology of end-stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma. Physical inactivity, eating habits and sedentarism are related to the severity of fatty liver disease, independent of body weight, supporting the hypothesis that increased physical activity may improve fatty liver disease. This review summarizes the evidence of the effects of physical exercise on NAFLD and NASH. Several clinical trials have shown that aerobic exercise reduces hepatic fat content. From the basic clinical and scientific studies, it is evident that exercise affects fatty liver disease through several pathways. Improving peripheral insulin resistance, reduces excessive delivery of free fatty acids and glucose for free fatty acid synthesis to the liver. In the liver, physical exercise stimulates lipolysis, decreases fatty acid uptake, prevents mitochondrial and hepatocellular damage through reduced release of damage-associated molecular patterns. In summary, physical exercise is a proven therapeutic way to improve liver recovery from fatty liver disease.Ítem Asociación entre el Cambio de Comportamiento Hacia la Actividad Física y el Riesgo de Padecer ECNT en Niños y Adolescentes de Instituciones Educativas Distritales.

Method: A cross-sectional correlational study derived from a secondary study of the GHAVISA macroproject was carried out, using a sample of 348 schoolchildren, 185 women and 163 men, in an age range of between 9 and 17 years from four district institutions of Bogota. Results: For grip strength (GS) in schoolchildren as adolescents, there is a significant difference between both sexes, being higher in men (p < 0.05). The level of physical activity (PAQ-C/A) shows significant differences between the sexes of the different age groups (schoolchildren and adolescents), with women being the lowest; also, the greatest trend of excess weight is located in the pre-contemplation stage (27.3%) and finally, the variants that indicate behavior change are the grip strength in the pre-contemplation and preparation stage and the PA level in the different stages, except pre-contemplation. Conclusion: This study suggests that lower values of grip strength and a low level of physical activity could be associated with a risk of suffering from CNCD in the precontemplation stage. These associations are more notable in girls, both schoolchildren and adolescents. However, the available data may not be entirely conclusive. However, the orientation and continuous promotion towards physical activity continue to be fundamental aspects to consider in the school environment. Keywords: CNCD, physical activity, obesity, behavioral change, grip strength.Ítem Dermatoglifía dactilar y perfil morfofuncional de futbolistas profesionales en la ciudad de Bogotá como herramienta de prevención de lesiones(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-01-16) Ríos Pinillos, Cristian David; Castro Jimenez, Laura Elizabeth; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001368402; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001569251; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=MLi2KUwAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5166-8084Introduction: Sport has evolved over the years and today the different world powers can determine a certain level of physical qualities at an early age in order to detect sports talents. One of the most striking tools today is the Dermatoglyph which studies fingerprints and this can come to deduce which physical capacity is more suitable for an individual and which can be potentiated. Objective: To establish the differences and similarities between the genetic profile through fingerprint dermatoglyphics and the morpho-functional profile in professional soccer players of the Fortaleza team in the city of Bogotá. Methodology: Study with a quantitative approach with correlational scope, trying to establish similarities and differences between two variables, such as the genetic profile through fingerprint dermatoglyphics and the morpho-functional profile through tests and tests on 22 professional soccer players of the Fortaleza F.C. Results: It was evidenced that the WL and LW design types predominate in the archers, the same types of designs are present in the defenders, but the central and lateral have a slight predominance in the WL design with 57% and this may have a significant relationship since their defensive movements depend on the attackers' rhythm changes. In midfielders the data are very varied due to the different functions and tasks to be performed on the field and in the morphofunctional profile it was evidenced in the Leger Test that this was the one that yielded the best results with respect to the other positions reaching stage 9 and in addition to that this position obtained the best VO2 max ml/kg/min with a result of 54.7 which indicates that regardless of the function to be performed by the midfielder, this is a position where the displacement of the player can vary both towards the defensive or offensive zone. Conclusions: There are variables in the types of designs and functional tests that share similarities in their results as for example in the position of the archer where it was highlighted in the Bosco test, demonstrating a high component in the explosive force with a value of 296.423 W and at the same time with the WL and LW designs a 50% of predominance was obtained in this capacity for this position, therefore it can be affirmed that in both profiles this physical quality is highlighted in the same way independent of the measuring instruments.Ítem L´effet d´une semelle sur le retour veineux plantaire.(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2022-10-18) Quintero Angarita, Joan Manuel; Castro Ramírez, Cindy Joulieth; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001196332; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001729666; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=J2NMlykAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-9442-1532Ítem Imaginarios sociales de un grupo de estudiantes del Colegio República Dominicana, Sede B, JM, frente al cuerpo, la corporalidad y la imagen corporal(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2017) Torres Perilla, María Cristina; Forero Cárdenas, Carmen Victoria; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001079450; https://scholar.google.es/citations?user=kacBIKUAAAAJ&hl=es; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-9997-327XThe research was carried out in the town of Suba.
