“…In another study involving the clinical validation of this diagnosis with 564 adolescents, with a mean age of 16.18 years (±1.13) and a discrete majority of females (52.1%), the prevalence was lower: 48.6% (4) . It is also mentioned that the results of a systematic review on sedentary behavior revealed fluidity in the prevalence of sedentarism among Brazilian adolescents, thus highlighting the cultural and regional context and the relationships with health practices and self-care (9) .…”

Objective: to validate clinically the factors associated with nursing diagnosis sedentary lifestyle in adolescents. Methods: a cross-sectional study, developed with 158 adolescent students. The chi-square test was used to identify the association between the presence of sedentary lifestyle and associated factors. The level of significance was set at p<0.05. Results: the prevalence of sedentary lifestyle was 68.3%. The presence of associated factors such as poor knowledge about the benefits that physical activity brings to health and/or the consequences of physical inactivity, lack of resources for the practice of physical exercise, insufficient training to exercise and intolerance to activity increased the likelihood of presence of sedentary lifestyle (p<0.05). Conclusion: the nursing diagnosis sedentary lifestyle was prevalent among adolescents and there are specific factors that intensify the probability of developing this diagnosis.

This systematic review examined the effects of distinct physical activity interventions on the academic achievement of school students based on an analysis of four distinct outcomes: mathematics, language, reading, and composite scores. This study was performed in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines and the QUORUM statement. A literature search was conducted using the PubMed-MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. Peer-reviewed studies published in English, Portuguese, and Spanish were considered. A random-effect meta-analysis was employed to determine the effect of interventions on academic performance. The effects between interventions and control groups were expressed as standardized mean differences. Thirty-one studies were included in the meta-analysis based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The exercise programs were not capable of significantly improving language, reading skills, and composite scores. Conversely, performance in math tests increased significantly after the interventions compared with the control groups. Regarding the overall effect, a significant improvement in academic achievement was detected after physical activity programs compared with controls. In conclusion, the positive effects of school-based physical education on academic performance are not uniform and may be higher for math skills. The implementation of evidence-based exercise programs in school settings emerges as a promising strategy to increase overall academic achievement in school-aged students.
