(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-07-10) Bolivar Quintero , Carlos Arturo; Ramírez Cáceres, Johann David; Rojas Jaramillo, Andrés; Bohorques Campos, Fernando Alberto; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001675073; https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=list_works&hl=es&hl=es&user=rKOtCvkAAAAJ&sortby=pubdate
The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between anthropometric variables and vertical jump performance in youth goalkeepers from the U-17 and U-20 categories of the professional clubs Boyacá Chicó and Patriotas de Tunja (Boyacá, Colombia). A sample of eight goalkeepers was evaluated through anthropometric measurements and vertical jump tests, including the Countermovement Jump (CMJ) and the Countermovement Jump with arm swing. Descriptive statistics and Pearson’s correlation coefficient were applied to examine the associations between variables. The results showed that muscle mass presented a moderate-to-high positive and statistically significant correlation with CMJ performance (r = .67; p = .035), suggesting that higher levels of lean mass favor the production of explosive force in the lower limbs. In contrast, fat mass showed a moderate negative correlation with the CMJ with arm swing (r = −.51), indicating a potential negative influence of adipose tissue on performance when the movement involves greater intersegmental coordination. Additionally, leg circumference demonstrated a strong negative correlation with the CMJ with arm swing (r = −.69; p = .056), suggesting a relevant trend between morphological characteristics and neuromuscular performance. In conclusion, muscle mass appears to be an important factor influencing explosive performance in youth goalkeepers. However, due to the small sample size, the findings should be interpreted with caution and considered preliminary evidence for this specific population.

This project develops a health promotion and disease prevention strategy tailored for hotel workers on San Andrés Island, addressing the specific vulnerabilities caused by extended work hours and rotating shifts. The primary aim is to empower employees to interpret their own health indicators, such as blood pressure, body mass index, and handgrip strength, while providing practical guidance on physical activity, sleep hygiene, and nutritional education, specifically focusing on increasing water intake.The methodology involved three distinct phases: a theoretical framework to define key health metrics, the design of a specialized intervention matrix, and the creation of digital didactic resources and infographics in multiple formats. The study concludes that short, 15-minute training sessions are the most effective way to integrate health education into high-demand work environments, fostering a culture of self-care and autonomy that ultimately dignifies the workforce and prioritizes occupational well-being

This health proposal, “Know Your Numbers, Control Your Health: A Health Promotion Strategy for Hypertension Management among the Population of San Andrés Island,” emerged following the internship carried out in July 2025, במסגרת of the Comprehensive Health Assessment Brigade on San Andrés Island. During this initiative, Universidad Santo Tomás led a characterization process involving the island’s population, divided into three groups: children, young adults, and older adults. In particular, my internship focused on the older adult group, which consisted of 193 people. For this group, blood pressure, neck circumference, and waist circumference were assessed. The outcomes included the generation of results, feedback, and recommendations for the community.
Entrenamiento y Deporte Adaptado en Alemania: Una descripción de sus dinámicas, y percepciones desde la experiencia en una pasantía internacional, en el ITK de la Universidad de Leipzig
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-07-06) Castellanos Ruiz, Yasmin; Bohórquez Campos, Fernando Alberto; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001657895; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=37AK1kUAAAAJ&hl=es
The international internship conducted at the Institut für Trainingswissenschaft und Sportinformatik (ITK) of Leipzig University, Federal Republic of Germany, constituted a high-level academic and professional training experience in the field of adapted and Paralympic sport. Founded in 1969 as part of Leipzig's renowned sport science system, this institution has trained generations of world-class researchers and coaches, and continues to hold a leading position in the production of applied knowledge on sports training methodology, including Paralympic training (Meier, Höner & Feichtinger, 2022; Schnabel, Harre & Krug, 2014). The central focus of the experience consisted of a systematic analysis of the training methodologies employed in ITK's adapted sport programs, with particular attention to the principles of load individualization, training periodization specific to athletes with disabilities, and the integration of monitoring technologies into daily training practice. In parallel, the internship provided a firsthand perspective on how Germany has built an inclusive sport system that coherently articulates high-performance Paralympic sport with grassroots sport participation for people with disabilities. Active participation in master classes and specific sessions across nine Paralympic disciplines, including para-athletics, Paralympic table tennis, sitting volleyball, wheelchair basketball, para-swimming, boccia, and sport for people with visual impairments, together with involvement in organizing adapted recreational games, generated a body of learning that this report seeks to document, analyze, and project onto the Colombian context, with a focus on training in adapted sport, inclusion, and the Paralympic movement. This report is structured as a descriptive-reflective academic text that combines the systematization of the lived experience with a review of current scientific literature, an analysis of the international and national regulatory framework, and a systematic comparison between the German model observed and the conditions of the Colombian context. Its ultimate purpose is to contribute to the development of adapted sport in Colombia, drawing on knowledge gained at one of the world's leading centers for adapted sports training and high-performance Paralympic sport.
Asociación de los factores de riesgo cardiometabólicos y la condición física en pobladores de la Isla de San Andrés y Providencia
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2026-05-21) Hernández Cabrera, Orlando; Triana Reina , Hector Reynaldo; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001358309; https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=Xpkq5OMAAAAJ&hl=es&oi=ao; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6334-7082
Introduction: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a global public health problem, with a concerning prevalence in isolated regions such as the San Andrés and Providencia archipelago. This study analyzed the relationship between physical fitness and cardiometabolic risk factors (CRFs) in young adults from this region. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 198 young adults (18–45 years; 81 men, 117 women). Physical fitness was assessed using a Fitness Index (FI) composed of grip strength, flexibility, standing long jump, and cardiorespiratory capacity (estimated VO₂max). Anthropometric, biochemical, and blood pressure parameters were measured. MS was diagnosed according to standardized criteria. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, tests for differences in means (Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U test), and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient. Results: The group with metabolic syndrome (MetS) (n=40) presented a significantly lower functional fitness index (FFI) than the group without MetS (p=0.005), with marked reductions in VO₂max (15.34 vs. 19.97 ml/kg/min; p<0.001) and weight-adjusted grip strength (p=0.020). A strong inverse correlation was found between VO₂max and waist circumference (rho = -0.828; p<0.001), as well as significant correlations with triglycerides, blood pressure, and fasting glucose. No association was observed between ethnicity and MetS. Conclusion: Cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle strength are key discriminating factors for MetS in this population. The strong correlation with central adiposity suggests that functional impairment is a sensitive marker of metabolic risk, supporting the inclusion of fitness assessment in primary prevention strategies in this vulnerable population.

“A Cuidarme Aprendo” is the systematization of a didactic strategy for the promotion of healthy habits among schoolchildren, developed by teachers from the Bogotá Secretariat of Education. It emerged as a response to the increase in sedentary behaviors among students. The most recent National Survey of the Nutritional Situation conducted in Colombia showed that 7 out of 10 school-age children display sedentary behaviors (Ministry of Health and Social Protection [MINSALUD], 2015). These behaviors contribute to the development of risk factors such as overweight, sleep disruption, changes in psychomotor development, social isolation, among others. This, in turn, leads to other health problems, including the development of non-communicable diseases, which represent a high cost to the public health system.

Physical inactivity is one of the main modifiable determinants of cardiometabolic risk in young adults, especially in island contexts where there are structural limitations for the systematic practice of physical activity. Recent evidence suggests that gamification and the incorporation of cultural elements, such as traditional dances, can enhance motivation, adherence, and physiological response to exercise programs. Objective: To evaluate the effects of a gamified traditional dance program on body composition, physical fitness, and cardiorespiratory capacity in young adults residing in San Andrés Island. Method: A quasi experimental study with an intervention group (IG) and a control group (CG) was conducted, using pre- and post-intervention measurements. Fifty-five young adults participated (IG=25; CG=30). The 12-week, 36-session intervention program integrated four progressive levels based on traditional dances (Calypso, Pasillo, Polka, and Mento) integrated through gamification mechanics. Anthropometric indicators (BMI, waist and neck circumferences), hemodynamic indicators (SBP, DBP, MAP), and physical fitness indicators (flexibility, standing long jump, VO₂max estimated by 6-minute walk, and a Physical Fitness Index, PFI) were assessed. Independent and paired samples t-tests were applied (α=0.05). Results: The groups were equivalent at baseline (p>0.05). After the intervention, the intervention group (IG) showed significant reductions in waist circumference, SBP, DBP, and MAP, as well as increases in flexibility, lower body power, and VO₂max (p<0.001). The PFI showed a significant overall improvement. The control group (CG) showed no relevant changes. Conclusions. The gamified program promoted positive physiological adaptations and represents a culturally relevant strategy for improving health and fitness in young people from island environments.

Gamification applied to swimming is proposed as a pedagogical strategy that incorporates challenges, rewards, progressive levels, and immediate feedback to increase adolescents’ participation and engagement. In this context, self-esteem emerges as a key factor, as it influences motivation, performance, and personal satisfaction. Regular swimming practice, combined with goal achievement and overcoming challenges, strengthens adolescents’ sense of competence and control over their own bodies. This study, conducted with cycle three students from IED José Asunción Silva in Engativá, Bogotá, implemented a gamified swimming program under a qualitative and Participatory Action Research approach. A field diary and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were used as the main instruments for data collection. Preliminary results show significant progress in self-confidence, group cohesion, and reduction of fear of water, as well as a gradual strengthening of self-esteem through playful activities. Findings indicate that integrating gamification strategies into swimming fosters greater commitment to physical activity, enhances socio-emotional skills, and contributes to building positive self-esteem among adolescents.

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, women faced barriers in sports, traditionally considered a male domain. Thanks to labor, educational, and political advancements, they gained access to competitions previously exclusive to men. A milestone was Charlotte Cooper’s victory, becoming the first woman to win an Olympic gold medal, marking a cultural shift. Despite progress, barriers persist, creating vulnerability for women in sports spaces. Machista culture has limited their development, and studies like Arruza et al. (2008) highlight gender differences in the perception of sports and health. This project will use a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods to analyze women's perceptions of health and risks in sports. Compliance with Resolution 8430 of 1993 from Colombia’s Ministry of Health will be ensured, guaranteeing participants’ autonomy and informed consent.

Introduction: prolonged exposure to screens in schoolchildren can negatively impact their lifestyle (LS). 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. Keywords: schoolchildren, adolescents, screens, lifestyle

Mood states are associated with several cardiovascular risk factors, and the lockdown due to the pandemic may have altered mood states and favored the appearance of cardiovascular risk factors. 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.

Introduction: 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.

(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2024) Simonin, Vadim; Universidad Santo Tomás
Introduction: 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.

Introduction: Adapted Physical Activity (APA) aims to improve physical skills and promote an active, healthy lifestyle. 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.

The 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.

The 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 communities
